I like allot of these bands but to see Death Angel and Warlock would be killer. Plus Zodiac Mindwarp!!! When did they get back together? That was one freaky little band.

zodiac mindwarp-thats a band i havnt heard of for a while-prime mover and high priest of love.two songs,different lyrics,same riffs.you've gotta laugh.
great list of bands there.to be honest,we're kind of hoping to do a few festivals this year,but only small ones-if we could get wacken or the dynamo in eindhoven it would freak me out.do you boys not get stuff like this in the states?dont say all you get is the fking ozzfest and lollyforlosers?even small bands get to play a few festivals-bloodstock or the bulldog bash,stuff like that.
one thing i've got to know greeno,was the list like that when you saw it,or did you alphabetise it yourself?

 

[Greeno]

The list was like that when I found it.

I don't think we have anything here in the states as big as the festivals in Europe. We have fest but just not on that level.

 

[baldyboy]

sorry fella-had to ask about the list,i just read your post about how anal you are with your cd collection-didnt know if it applied to other things too!
funnily enough,i assumed you guys would have bigger and better festivals than we do in europe.i assumed that you boys would be better at organising them and stuff.
those european festivals are cool though.nearset i've got to one so far is buying testament,live at eindhoven!

sorry fella-had to ask about the list,i just read your post about how anal you are with your cd collection-didnt know if it applied to other things too!

Hahaha.. No, just anal about the collection for the most part.

I think the main reason we don't have the big fests is because the music scene in the States sux for the most part. Can't have big fests if people are only spending their money on the Ozcrap Fest.

 

[baldyboy]

good for ozzy,not so good for other types of metal.hhhmmmm.....i guess he needs the money to pay for his recovery now.
not that i hate the ozzfest stuff totally-slayer and system of a down played here last year on it,and so did a band called american head charge,who i quite liked.but those euro fests like wakken and the dynamo,they do rule.
