Press Release:

INDIANAPOLIS METAL FEST ANNOUNCES HOST FOR 2008 SHOW

Goddess of All Things Rock Confirmed!

INDIANAPOLIS (December 22, 2007) - Indianapolis Metal Fest promoter, Rob Mason, announced Saturday that former Uranium VJ, Mistress Juliya, will host the second annual Indianapolis Metal Fest scheduled to take place on September 26th and 27th, 2008.

Juliya rose to fame as the premier Goddess of All Things Rock. As the sexy face of Fuse TV and Heavy Metal, Juliya ruled the world of rock videos, rock VJs, and rock music interviews for 5 years, as well as playing a crucial role in the branding of the network, Fuse TV, in both broadcast and online.

At Fuse, Juliya's success led her to Uranium, Metal Asylum, and Slave to the Metal - where Juliya dished out extreme advice. She interviewed and hit the road with the heaviest acts in metal music, from Metallica to Mudvayne to Marilyn Manson entertaining over 40 million viewers a week.

Juliya found herself hosting Voodoofest in New Orleans, covering massive music tours, including Ozzfest and New England Metal Fest, and representing the voice of her generation in Electile Dysfunction, where she covered the Democratic National Convention and interviewed the top brass.

With a style all her own and attitude to match, Juliya's rising celebrity earned her feature coverage in Stuff Magazine, Elle Girl and, most recently, appearances in Revolver Magazine, Gener8, Gothic Beauty, Tattoo Revue, Varla and Maxim Magazine. She was voted Favorite VJ by Revolver readers, complete with a centerfold!

"To say that we're excited about Juliya hosting both days of the show would be a huge understatement. She's a metal icon," Mason says. The announcement comes three months to the day following the first annual Indianapolis Metal Fest, which took place on September 22. According to Mason, "The first show proved what many of us here already knew. The Indianapolis metal scene rules! With only nine months to go until the next show, we're not resting on our laurels. Plans for IMF 2 have been in full swing for several weeks. The Juliya announcement is only the first of many surprises in store for the fans, bands, vendors and sponsors. IMF 2 is going to blow your mind!"
