Would you rather go on vacation to Branson, Missouri or Dudefest?

A metal festival vs. a city that likes to present itself as a representation of what stupid white bumpkins think of when they think of the USA. 

Toughie. 

Dudefest is not just any "metal festival." It's a bunch of sweaty, half naked dudes bouncing all over each other

Which is totally not gay

Pretty much everything super-masculine hetero dudes do is extremely homoerotic.

That's not a good description of people who go to Dudefest at all. After all the type of bands that play on Dudefest are the type that'll write songs about media objectification of women or society's enforcement of traditional gender roles (not that you can understand the lyrics, but that's not the point) and then a multi-paragraph essay about this in the liner notes that come with the limited edition colored vinyl record. There's a reason why folks in the scene tend to hate fraternities after all. You seem to be thinking more of metalheads.

There's a reason I found out about this poster on another forum where many people went to Dudefest. Would any "super-masculine hetero dude" post this on their wall?: http://www.crimethinc.com/tools/posters/gender_subversion_front.pdf

That wasn't directed at Dudefest. I have never even heard of Dudefest before this thread.
