There were some really great cover songs played at the festival. Here are some that I remember:

MetalUSAfer - We Stand To Fight (Virtue)
MetalUSAfer - Heavy Metal Drill (Metalucifer)
Night Demon - Lightning To The Nations (Diamond Head)
Axxion - Highway Rider (Black Axe)
Visigoth - Necropolis (Manilla Road)
Argus - Phantom Of The Opera (Iron Maiden)
Grim Reaper - Don't Talk To Strangers (Dio)

What was your favorite? Highway Rider was a great surprise since I love that song, but my favorite was probably Lightning To The Nations.
 
Yeah, all the covers I heard were pretty solid.

The one that stands out the most has to be We Stand To Fight, simply because it is perfect for Chris' voice. That song has been stuck in my head since Friday.
 
From what I hear Dark Design's cover of 'Dust in the Wind' got quite a few people singing along on the second stage side... just tossing that out there.

All the covers were neat and pretty interesting choices. Typically I hate to hear any Maiden covers but that one was pretty damn good and not one of the typical songs.
 
I totally have a bromance with Jake. We bonded over our three favorite bands Pagan Altar, Manilla Road, and Cirith Ungol and talked about how amazing the new Summoning album is. <3 that dude.
