Hi all,
I don't usually post on forums like this, but I discovered this in the links on Enchant's main site so here I am.
I talk to a lot of people about metal and prog rock on The Perpetual Motion Board and most people on there know me for my love and constant perpetuating of the Enchant Advertising of that board.
Anyways, I am trying to get in touch with the guys from Enchant through here. I see Ed posts a lot and I think I saw a post by Ted somewhere along the way as I scanned through here.
I have some quick questions. I have seen almost everyone band that I have wanted to see live......EXCEPT ENCHANT.
What I want to know, is that would it be possible AT ALL to see ENCHANT at Progpower in Atlanta for PPIV? www.progpower.com
Glenn Harveston is the promoter and posts on the aforementioned board. He's a great guy, but definitely a person more into the heavier, speedier type of music. Typically, Enchant wouldn't fit the mold......IN HIS OPINION. My opinion, even besides the bias of my like for Enchant, is that they would fit in fine. I find Enchant to be heavy and light at the same time.......the songs are heartfelt, meaningful, and emotional, and yet, pretty damn heavy at times and easily as complex musically as any metal band out there.
So Ed, or Ted, if you guys are reading this, or Doug, Sean, or Bill....please respond to this and let me know if you have ever been approached for this show, or even would be interested.
Also, on a much different note.......is there EVER a possibility of ANY kind of tour in the US? I live in Texas and have yet to make it to California to see one of your few shows in the bay area......
What would it take to play a club or stadium anywhere near the Houston/Austin/Dallas area? Money, lodging, label backing, equipment, travel arrangements, and so forth?
I have tracked Enchant since I got my hands on Blueprint back in 1995. I got it and traded it off 3 times before it really hit me. Kind of crazy that I had to buy it FOUR times to keep it and let the band sound sink in. Ever since, I have been a fanatic. I got Wounded as soon as I could, followed by Time Lost and then of course through the rest of the catalog. I rate Enchant as my favorite overall band out of 1500 CDs I own, all being prog metal, prog rock, and rock/metal in general. Some other favorites I have are Fates Warning, Dream Theater, Arena, Threshold, Everon, Mind's Eye, and Saviour Machine. I eagerly got each Enchant album since Time Lost on pretty much the release date. In fact, I set up my CD online orders of other albums and items to coincide with Enchant releases. Sad really, I know.
Anyways, so what's the next scoop for Enchant. I hear talk of a DVD. I would of course be getting that upon release. Also, I wanted to know about shirts. You guys have any shirts or will you be printing any at some point? Even something as simple as album covers would be cool. I saw a guy at ProgPower IV in Atlanta this year with a BREAK shirt on and he told he got it in Holland. He said he saw Enchant over there.....do I need to move to Europe to see my favorite US band??
Alright, enough of all of this....tell me what merchandise is available with Enchant stuff on it for starters.
Thanks
