Honestly dude, if you haven't seen Leaves' Eyes on tour, it's because you never tried.

According to their tour history on their website, Leaves' Eyes has been within 600 miles of me exactly once. I missed that show.

Yes, I could have traveled farther to see them, but that was my point about why PP is so great, because there is so much good music packed together and its cost effective as compared to going to say 6 or 7 shows out of town to see the same number of artists.

 

[Miguel]

For me it's

1. Therion
2. Evergrey
3. Sabaton
4. Mercenary
5. Voyager

 

[Matt Crooks]

Jag Panzer
Tad Morose
Fates Warning
Freak Kitchen
WoMD

 

[Met-Al]

This is an extremely tough list to put together. Each year, there's at least one band that I never thought I would see live that gets me excited about the festival. There are numerous honorable mentions for me, but I'll spare you those names and simply give you my top 5:

1. Conception
2. Pain Of Salvation
3. Angra
4. Vanden Plas
5. Ark


Stay metal. Never rust.
