Also, I know tickets for Wed/Thurs are to be announced for December, but is there any word on the price yet? I'm picking up at least two of each day, so having a heads up on a ballpark would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'd second Marillion as a PPUSA headliner one day. :P Honestly, the people complaining about prog headliners make me so confused. I don't even consider Devy or Scar Symmetry to be prog; more ProgLite than anything. But if we were to get some Camel, Magma, Captain Beyond, Gentle Giant, Sweet...

Enforcer are a great band, and I've been buddies with the folks in Warbringer and Exmortus since both bands come through MA all the time. (or at least, used to) Will definitely make it out for the Worcester show, even though I'm completely over modern takes on thrash metal.

Honestly was never able to get into anything I've heard by them; that being said, an excuse to revisit their discography is probably something I need. Plus I've heard great things about them live.

Jolly is playing as well. It's a killer bill.

The Bushwhack demos on Youtube are pretty rad. Not sure how much, if ANY, of that material is going to end up on the actual Earthside album considering it's been like a half-decade. But figure that some of you will probably love the material anyway. :)

The release date is October 23rd, and they're playing their CD release show / live debut as "Earthside" on October 25th in Connecticut at Toad's Place in New Haven. Info obtained from their FB page. Gonna try and go if I can, I've been friends with Jamie and acquaintances with Frank both for...

Got my tickets(for me and a friend) in that first 30 mins. So stoked. :D :D :D As for the German metal comment, so many bands i'd love to see... Blind Guardian is the obvious fanwank on my part, since they're basically my favorite band, but it would be even cooler if Demons & Wizards were...

Remember everyone, there's a huge Between the Buried & Me tour in November/December with Enslaved, Intronaut and Native Construct as the openers. :)

Wanted to go to the Worcester show, but decided to catch Riverside in NYC that same night instead. Might go to the NYC show of this tour, particularly because Sanctuary is opening it as well - but we'll see. :) I love SX, but with the setlist they're doing, Overkill and Sanctuary would be...

Well that stinks. They better be playing all of it and not skipping any parts, then!

While I'm here, if anyone ever books a prog death metal band for the fest, Atheist would be my pick - for sure. Can't wait to hear this project later.

I second this. Honestly, I think the most surprising thing of the 2015 (initial video) announcements was that Anubis Gate was only billed second - when, in my brain, I definitely assumed they were more of a headliner act. I had the same reaction this year with Green Carnation, tbh, and am...

I wasn't too crazy about Gloryhammer (although I'm sure I will enjoy them live) but Stream of Passion is a solid A+ from me. Curious about why you announced the #2 band, and not the #1 band first? Since people are posting about who they'd love to see on the fest, i'll second Threshold, but...
