HardLore: Tied Down Fest 2023

Thumbnail photo by Kat Nijmeddin.
Colin Young (God's Hate) and Bo Lueders (Harms Way) recap their weekend at the second ever annual Tied Down Fest in Detroit Michigan and discuss everything from the lineup, the festival amenities, and how they spent an entire week in Detroit leading up to the unbelievable second year of what we can only hope remains Detroit's annual preeminent hardcore festival for years to come.

Bo, you jumped on my head about 5 times during Gorilla Buscuits

[@bosxe]

Thank you

[@norryb]

such an honor

[@dajovajr]

your fault for having a head

[@nickm1703]

Crowd knew every TUI song word for word....until the Pleased to Meet You breakdown

[@tylerjodeblock1224]

LOL, at least they recovered that situation smoothly, Could have ruined one of the best parts of the set lol

[@bazzyblack5895]

Babe wake up, Colin & Bo just posted

[@taromomo666]

excited to hear how Colin's gambling went

[@ChiefEasy]

These edge guys got more vices than the rest of us 😂

[@armandobueno6888]

No human is safe from mind altering substances/concepts.

[@imvengeance666]

"Every spin is a memory." - Colin

[@withafrown]

"I lost it all.. that day..." he says, with a thousand-yard stare.

[@voicesofvinyl]

Deadbody was one of my favorite sets of the weekend. There were a lot of bands I knew would be sick (NEG, Earth Crisis, Drain, TUI, etc) but Deadbody was a pleasant surprise and their set kicked ass.

[@billywilliams8863]

Agreed. Fav set!

[@cokesucks]

True Love covering Carry On was a highlight for me.

[@jeremykenward3082]

Same! Almost lost my shit when I heard the intro

[@jvallely_]

TUI playing half a person for me is a bucket list thing and they were just absolutely incredible. Not one bad set both days. So stoked on my hometown for putting on like this.

[@schylereggen1751]

1:36:46 That man is the one and only. Certified beast mode 24/7 all the time. austin evans from orthodox and a dozen black roses. TWO MORE NASHVILLE BANDS HOW YA DOIN

[@SlayJDub]

IIIITS HARDLORE TIMEEE!!!!!!

[@Feelthedorkness]

Very stoked at the prospect of John Brannon being on the show. Dude is still so scary on stage.

[@jtkappy7742]

I worked at little Caesars, that place is something else. We used to cut peoples pizzas in weird ways for fun and sometimes we would just give people the wrong pizzas because the kitchen would get so backed up that there was no chance we would get anything right

[@terrorzonepodcast614]

So it's true. The one by my house gave me 2 wrong pies in a row.😂😂

[@braydenb7968]

The knocked loose/inclination guys collectively rocked my shit during the TUI set

[@hannahkozlovic1715]

Wish I was located even remotely near Detroit, that fest looked insane. Glad to hear Colin’s gambling addiction I mean hobby is going so productively! Also, I’m really glad that the discussion about which fast food mascot would pit the hardest has definitely landed on Mr Caesar himself

[@itsyaboisom6180]

Ye man I drive 12 hours to go there and dbloc was my fav set it was crazy to see lil Cesar moshing

[@hannahkozlovic1715]

@@itsyaboisom6180 That sounds cool as hell, wish I coulda been there

[@beatricetinklepants]

I wanted to go so bad cause it was the closest date of the drain tour with magnitude but it’s still 9 hours away 😂

[@headtrips1]

Most violent pits I’ve seen at a fest

[@diazable]

ahhh yeah time to get comfy and relax for an hour

[@patricklee2904]

i was front and center for most of that gel set. they fucking rip.

[@CloakedDnb]

Working Thursday sucks less due to this pod

[@drewminor1920]

Fill in bassist was Austin from Orthodox/A Dozen Black Roses

[@magnumpineapple277]

Thanks for coming boys, that Cold As Life show is gonna tear everyone a new one. Sorry I bothered you so much about xWeaponx merch Bo. And condolences to you both going to Somerset Mall.

[@IanB0rchard]

Fill in bass for Inclination was Austin Evans of Orthodox!

[@fcaioki7949]

❤❤❤❤❤ Hardlore Forever

[@blueskynoise2177]

Can’t believe I missed you guys at Drifter coffee before Tied Down, it’s literally right next door to my house. Their croissants do go crazy

[@wecomai]

Lead is in the water

[@dollyfarton666]

that deadbody shirts gotta get on sale on line colin!

[@JennieTeGro7]

I think Harms Way should’ve jumped on stage like YOTK did at LDB… would’ve been dope.

[@colinstranathan7125]

They were on the lineup but then they dropped

[@JohnEvans-xg2bp]

Ma! MAAAA! Get your ass down here, new fucking harlore!!

[@MegaXbryanX]

good to hear some Grand Rapids bands getting some shout outs, I'm not heavy into the hardcore scene here but damn we got some bangers for sure

[@_arfarf_x]

M.D.O.P. the grand rapids goats rn shout out mean mug pink pout and felon class too!

[@xwinterxendsx]

bassist of inclination was austin evans from Orthodox, band from tn

[@justtim7793]

Totally slept on this but I can’t wait to go next year

[@CATFEESH666]

Mr Brotherhood, let’s goooo

[@dollyfarton666]

[@CH-ml4rz]

There’s my thursday night 🙌🏻

[@scottbradford308]

manscaped segue was fucking sick bo

[@dominicdimas9188]

It's hardlore time

[@connornyhan8369]

Was staring at Colin’s hat for like a minute trying to figure out what band was on it

[@baileylittlejohn1051]

Love hearing the Ends of Sanity dudes get mentioned on this! NCHC 💪🏽

[@TheHighestOrderHO]

Gotta get my mitts on some damn Martinelli’s now, so delish.

[@hatguy626]

Bo ima put you on, having the same feeling about a nylon strap. dimarzio now makes the clip lock straps in cotton instead of nylon and boy howdy they are 10000x more comfortable than a nylon. No catching or burns on your neck or shoulder shirt or shirtless. An absolute 10/10.

[@bosxe]

WELL now

[@_antisocial__]

🤘

[@alpoLand]

Buddy's needs to be shut DOWN. Thank you for that review of it. Good seeing you at MGM, Colin. I probably jinxed your night asking for a photo 😅

[@christopherkuhl3772]

Metro Incendiary set was the best best set I ever seen

[@AlexM-ok4ho]

Colin’s eyes are like a mile apart so that could be what’s up with the glasses thing…All love tho homie😂

[@Matthiacle666]

All love tho homie

[@ulisesgonzalez3474]

Y’all gonna be at The Rumble in Chicago ? I hope so gosh man y’all podcasts have been really been helping me thru depression

[@diazable]

noooooooooo colin broke his pain of truth streak ㅠㅠ

[@drvoncheezit]

Coffee in hand. Just clocked on. Let’s get it Mr. Brothers.

[@Anjuroo]

Amen my Mr. Brother 🙌

[@sm8832]

I was there and was too scared to say hi, I do regret this.

[@x.BRAiNZ.x]

Good weekend boiz! Colin don’t eat the painting 😜

[@kristopherhauser]

Buddy’s probably my favorite pizza joint in all of michigan (since Pizzapopolis in Greektown closed). The one in Novi is ridiculously good.

[@joe1719]

Yo redhook is the bomb! Stoked you checked it out.

[@masterofnull9695]

"waited til after midnight" lmao.

[@ianhaas4697]

Ante Up is definitely a Detroit band

[@corymclain239]

💪💪💪 and they're friggin neat too, so jot that down as well people

[@JoSHFARRox13]

Bo’s “again?!” killed me

[@sgtbucksauce9129]

finally

[@Bobaruski22]

Here for Colin’s gambling story 😆

[@BassyTX]

Can’t hear you wait hear Colin’s gambling story, I hope he won big :)

[@jackwilkinson9753]

Gamblore - Stories from MGM Grand

[@marcjamieson8280]

Didn’t start the episode yet but I’m willing to bet Colin lost it all at least twice lol

[@MrJstnl48]

NGL Honest Johns was a good ass breakfast before the sunday show

[@newethic85]

42:05 yep they sure did play a set

[@TheHighestOrderHO]

Colin was like Van Damme in Bloodsport beating that kit’s ass even though he was blind!

[@CH-ml4rz]

SHOUTOUT IAN FIDANCE 35:55

[@sanpelagrino]

Wish they would’ve talked about the after show. It was lit at 1am. BIG BOY killed it and should’ve played the actual fest imo and POT had a really fun and hilarious set

[@borncool6090]

with lum dropping thought for sure they were getting added

[@mvarnzo5709]

Dude I get those ocular migraines too. They're very bizarre. Never met or heard from someone else who gets them. All you can do is wait for them to pass.

[@lizardpunk1942]

When we getting Hardlore on the street?

[@jonathananderson5135]

Not gonna lie, mostly interested to hear how many ATM trips Colin made.

[@rcmccleary1]

Longmont Potion Castle

[@vincek6613]

I'm eating McD's while watching this

[@behindthacrookedcross]

Ante Up is from Detroit! Put some respect on dat shit

[@OfficialErnestCriterion]

I need a Chauncey episode

[@FKAJFKNoLifeTigerLily]

@1:28:50 - Is this the first "shit in the pit" of 2023? Can't remember. The green room is next!

[@runningdownadrm728]

No doing things between bands is big. I was one time at a wrestling convention and saw Jimmy Hart and Gilberg and they refused to take a picture with me until after the match was over and as I patiently waited for the match to end I remember being like "I get it" "respect."

[@beenop420]

is Bo officially in Weapon X now?

[@TheLoFiHorrorGuy]

If gambling isn’t one of the X’s in straight edge, Colin will be the one solely to blame for a 4th X.

[@jboges]

I would donate to a HardLore gambling fund

[@gorilla311]

The footprint....

[@hookares9207]

dead body was sicc Taylor easily had the siccest guitar of the weekend

[@facelessjoe]

Do you mean you will actually be in London, or just using London as a general term for England? Because if you're in London. Hauntlore at Cold Christmas Church (just outside of London)

[@jacksonmiller6620]

I might be a hater but like Bo’s point about people trying to be viral is true imo, like people will learn the words the day of the show and then grab the mic like it’s their favorite fucking song bc they can get on video

[@connor7329]

deadbody is coming to hartford and i’m about to bring a pitbull and shovel to the show in honor of jasta

[@lawrencehegge7037]

This is gta radio

[@armandobueno6888]

Dude. Someone call rockstar right now lol

[@Leave_The_Hall_69]

Who are these guys?

[@anthonyleone2399]

As a Detroiter, Buddy's is very mid. Jets supremacy

[@MrShane666]

Wanna see a Deadbody?

[@LoyderSquadProductions]

I was on board until the buddys diss Smh

[@dajovajr]

the poop....

[@Pg123]

Gag was the best set of the night. These hardlore dumb bells were just like “wow the drummer looks” buff. 😂😂 tf

[@Weewoo12]

These fest recaps aren't very entertaining. Basically just listing each band that played and saying "they were sick" for an hour.

[@anthony92292]

you guys were awesome, thank you for coming out to detroit. sidebar: got to meet dave of weapon x through a friend. sick ass weekend.

[@tylerhall182]

So fucking hyped for the magnitude mini!!!
