I was curious how high you'd rank Witherfall. But they are nowhere to be found. #FalseNews As always, I appreciate you putting together this list, and I have tons of albums to now check out. I'm a lazy metal listener these days, as the constant pursuit of new albums burned me out, so I enjoy...

Best of luck on another quick sellout!

I find that the easiest way to familiarize myself with a band is to open up Spotify, and look at what songs are most popular, or open youtube, and see which videos of theirs have the most views.

One of the major reasons I stopped seeing so much live metal, was I just couldn't take paying $40 to go and see another band play a lot of music, and then not be able to hear the singer, or the lead guitar, etc. This year, the quality of the sound varied. For several bands, the house mixer...

Green Carnation (one of the best shows I've ever seen) Blind Guardian Fates Warning Devin Townsend Spock's Beard Freedom Call Haken I missed Refuge, and only saw the last 1/3rd or so of Pyramaze and Gentle Storm.

Voyager Falconer Riverside Anathema Native Construct (musically, more than performance) Soto (I only caught the last 20 minutes) Helker Nothing else was good for me. But I'm not a Angra/Royal Hunt/Dragonland/Unleash the Archers fan anyhow.

I made a spotify playlist. I don't know if the Refuge one is complete, but otherwise its accurate (I hope). For those bands doing an album exclusive, I only included that album. If you find any errors, let me know. https://open.spotify.com/user/methosfurey/playlist/0eDKPyrCOy640McRhyOxkk

The current roster is almost split 50:50 between Prog and Power. One thing I'm confused on, is that this is now supposed to be a 4 day fest. So are they going to offer tickets separately still for Friday/Saturday, and how will the Thursday and Friday tickets be sold (can you buy just one or...

Some singers and bands don't like it cold. It affects the singing, as well as playing (ever tried to play guitar with cold fingers?). So they'll ask for the air to be turned off before the set. Then it's usually kicked on after it, at least for a little bit (depending on the next band). Sure it...
