    Stratovarious Question

    I would pick up the LIVE album "Visions of Europe". That was the first album I picked up from them and it blew me away. Some songs off of this 2CD set sound even better than some of the studio tracks... Just my opinion... Enjoy. Hope to see Statovarius at PP3!!

    Best Band at the Show

    My vote goes to the masters Speed Metal... Gamma Ray!! Their set was awesome, they came out flying and never stopped. It was great to hear everyone singing along and keeping the bands energy up! Kai Hansen seemed to be smiling all through the set, I think he was blown away at the crowd...

    Blind Guardian on NY Area Radio!!!

    Ah, I see you have very good taste... I only found out about Eddie Trunk a little over a year ago. Yeah, it is about time that we hear some REAL power metal over here in the States. Hopefully BG has started a trend and more bands will come over and tour over here. Gotta give Glenn credit for...

    Blind Guardian on NY Area Radio!!!

    This is just blew me away... We have a radio show up here in the NY/NJ metro area called Saturday Night Rocks. It is hosted by Eddie Trunk. Well at 12:45 AM this morning, he played "The Soulforged" off ANATO. After the song he also said mentioned the North American Tour and that it was...

    Your introduction to Metal?

    Ok this is going to make me feel old compared to the other posts here. I even forgot what the release year was but, the album that got me into metal was Quiet Riot's "Metal Health"... It was on to Maiden, Metallica and Megadeth after that.

    I was at the Hampton Inn last year and will be again this year. There were a quite a few of us staying there last year. The walk to Earthlink from there isn't bad at all...

    Blind Guardian videos?

    I saw the single too, but didn't know it had a video on it. I will have to check that out... By the way, does anyone know if Blind Guardian are recording a LIVE album on this tour? I thought I read it somewhere. Any truth to this??

    Russell Allen

    Symphony X are a really talented band. I have noticed some similarities to Dream Theater in the past, but I think it's only in tribute. Someone told me that Michael Romeo is a big Dream Theater fan and I guess thats where his influinces are coming from. I heard "Accolade 2" and think its...

    Seating at the show

    I also agree, last year I was able to go down to the floor and enjoy Kamelot's set with NO problems. No moshing, just headbanging and air guitar/drum playing Metalheads really getting into the show. I can't wait for this year!!!

    New BG tour dates

    Well I've never been to The World, but I can tell you that the Birch Hill isn't a bad place to see a show. I would however advise that you get there early if you want to be up front. I would describe it as levels. You have the stage up front then the floor, then there is a step and another...
