With more and more details coming out about the upcoming GWAR-B-Q, this event just keeps looking more and more badass. Metal Blade Records, as well as Slave Pit Inc., have announced that Lamb of God front-man Randy Blythe will be judging the Cook-Off, and comedian Don Jamieson, who co-hosts That Metal Show on VH1 Classic, will be performing a stand-up set on main stage. From the press release:
The sickest party ever just got even sicker as Slave Pit Inc. and Metal Blade Records announced new details of the upcoming GWAR-B-Q. Joining the festivities will be none other than Metal Blade recording artist and VH1 Classic "That Metal Show" co-host, comedian Don Jamieson, who will be performing a stand-up set on the main stage of the event. Jamieson will also be joining the star-speckled judges of this year's "American A-Hole" competition, which will also include Oderus Urungus' alter ego Dave Brockie and will be hosted by none other than GWAR's manager, underworld mogul Sleazy P. Martini.
Said Jamieson, "As a fan of GWAR since "Scumdogs Of The Universe", I am honored to perform on the same stage they will undoubtedly ejaculate on."
Don Jamieson's new album, "Live and Hilarious" is out on Metal Blade Records.
GWAR is also happier than "an Orc in an orphanage" to welcome notorious malcontent and "Jackass/Viva La Bam" star Chris Rabb, a.k.a. "Rabb Himself" to the festivities. Rabb, who has recently been showcasing his talents behind the camera with his new project "Hot Dog Casserole", will be calling the action at the GWAR-B-Q's version of extreme sports, "the Spew-Olympics".
Not to be outdone, homeboy and Lamb of God lead singer Randy Blythe will be judging the GWAR-B-Q Cook-Off, and local bike gang The Cutthroats will be presenting a special bike-jousting event. Add sun, fun, and a TON of awesome bands (including, of course, the mighty GWAR!), and you have what might be the coolest thing to happen to Richmond since the Civil War!
