Many, many great performances, but... Myrath + Shattered Fortress - possibly my favorite 4-hour time span in 12 years of attending the festival. Orphaned Land & Amaranthe - two bands I never expected to be in my "top 5" list...but amazing energy and musicianship. Vanden Plas - although I wish...

Oh, and John Arch: "True metal. True dedication. Best people on the planet."

Dang, where's that jaw-dropping emoticon that we used to have? These will have to do. :headbang::headbang::headbang::kickass::kickass::kickass: I really liked the Lords of Black clip - need to track that down. And I've heard glowing reviews of Teramaze, so need to find that one as well...

Ooooooooh, never mind. Got it. Fixed it. :erk: P.S. Good thing I'm off work today.

OK, can you give me a hint? It might just be that my brain function is at, oh, around 60% today. I meant the premiere of the suite being performed in its entirety, not the individual songs. :p

Whoops, forgot the coffee! Fixed.

Really? I love those songs, although I'm really curious about the line-up. :)

Not as much of a haul this year – there were a few things I was hoping to get, but they were sold out. Also, I was hoping that there might be some advance copies of the 7th Wonder DVD, but no luck. Also, I didn’t spend as much time browsing, due to not wanting to leave my seat open for too...

Herman (I think) from Dragonforce. “It was an hour song, but we play it fast, so it’s down to 10 minutes”. Anneke was a virtual highlight reel… When the house lights came on before her GB/VIP encore and about half the folks left: “Oh, no! It’s a game! I say it’s over, and you say you want...

Not exactly in order, but… Fates Warning Circus Maximus Devin Townsend* Anneke GB/VIP show Haken Stream of Passion The Gentle Storm Serious Black Ascendia Vanishing Point * If you would have told me 36 hours ago that Devin Townsend would be on my list, I would have told you that you were out...

* CHEERS to Glenn and Jen for hosting yet another amazing event. Thanks for persevering when you could have chosen to shut the whole party down a couple of years ago. The blood, sweat, tears, and time that you invest to make PPUSA a one-of-a-kind experience for the fans is truly appreciated...

Loved the "Dude, did you eat the last unicorn?" shirt (at the Courtyard on Thursday). Also the one that I only saw in passing about being returned to the Residence at 17th/Midtown. One night, I wore a Queensryche O:M tour shirt from 1988 that got several comments.

Great job as usual, AMBR! Every time I saw you, I was on the run, but I do really appreciate all of your hard work!

Arriving Wednesday at 4:50 p.m. on SWA #577 from Phoenix. I will definitely miss Lord, but fingers crossed that I arrive in time for Stream of Passion!!
