Time line
1999 – NEMHF I
Morbid Angel, Napalm Death, GWAR, Deicide, Manowar, Earth Crisis, Isis, Overkill, Converge, Diecast, Vital Remains, Madball, Crossthread, Non Compos, God Stands Still
The headliners were Morbid Angel and Napalm Death on the 1st night, Gwar and Deicide on the 2nd night, and Manowar and Earth Crisis on the third night. It was originally supposed to be The Misfits instead of Manowar, which is why there was more hardcore on the third day, but The Misfits canceled their appearance, thereby placing Manowar as the replacement headliner.
