Why the hate? There's nothing on that album to not like imo.

W.A.S.P. - THE CRIMSON IDOL

This already happened when they toured North America in 2008 or 2009. They played all of The Crimson Idol, with the big screen showing the movie as well. This was killer. Too bad the promised DVD release never happened...

 

[labrekk]

Grave Digger - The Grave Digger or Tunes of War. I prefer if I had to, the former.

I think they already did Tunes Of War entirely at Wacken a few years ago. I'd love to hear and see it of course, but also Knights Of The Cross. The Grave Digger is good but I never clicked with it as much as ToW and KotC.

 

[Riceloft]

I already did something similar in the "5 returning and 5 new bands" thread. I'll mix it up a little here, though my first choice remains the same.

1. Mercenary - 11 Dreams, with the 11 Dreams lineup.
2. Edguy - Hellfire Club
3. Symphony X - V
4. Sonata Arctica - Reckoning Night
5. Riverside - Out Of Myself
6. Vanden Plas - Seraphic Clockwork

Sorry but I HATED that album. Some people really liked it. For me it's too all over the place to the point that they come off as not having their own sound.

Grave Digger - The Grave Digger or Tunes of War. I prefer if I had to, the former.

As much as I love those albums; if I'm going to see Grave Digger for the first time, I want a diverse set.

I wasn't at Wacken to witness it...so, that's why I suggested Progpower.

 

[Purveyor Of Evil]

I saw them at the BWBK festival years ago and saw a diverse set. That's why I'd like to see either one of the two albums I posted.

You have no idea how jealous I am.

 

[TENTH DREAMER DECEIVER]

Can't believe it's been 29 years since I first bought Heavy Metal Breakdown. Pretty sure Banzai released it. Wonder if I still have the vinyl.

 

[YtseJammer]

Angra (or Matos) - Angels Cry
Shadow Gallery - Tyranny
Royal Hunt - Paradox
Sonata Arctica - Ecliptica
Labyrinth - Return to Heaven Denied
Vanden Plas - Far Off Grace
Circus Maximus - The 1st Chapter
Edguy - Theater of Salvation
Sava..whatever you want call them......Edge of Thorns

I'd be thrilled with any of those.

 

[DADRocks]

1. Redemption (Snowfall on Judgement Day.....or any of their other releases really (except their very 1st one))
2. Amorphis (Silent Waters)

ME TOO

 

[Harvester]

I guess it's just me...but concept albums in a live setting make more sense than just playing a disc straight through.

Don't get me wrong...defintely exceptions to that rule pending on if it's perceived as a classic by the majority of fans.

I agree. Some non-concept albums just have impeccable flow on disc though, and thus would make great candidates for full-album setlists.

When Amon Amarth did the "An Evening With Amon Amarth" tour a couple of years ago, they did all of Surtur Rising, which worked pretty well.
