Build Your Own Metalfest!

[CrazyChris576]

You're booking a lineup for a Metalfest. No.... THE Metalfest! Your top six most badass bands in the land, you can book any six metal bands for your lineup. The hook is that your Metalfest is this summer, so you must choose bands that are currently together and active. For instance, wanting to see Sabbath circa 1975 or Pantera, sadly, isn't an option (although At the Gates fans have a loophole with the band re-uniting for a tour this summer).

So who's playing your Metalfest? Do you go with one sub-genre or do you mix it up a bit? List them from headliner to first opening act:

Mine is all bands I haven't ever seen live:
Scar Symmetry
Disarmonia Mundi
Norther
Kalmah
Immortal Souls
Mercenary

 

[OvSeth]

Children of Bodom (with some songs they haven't played live)
Sinergy
Wintersun
Stam1na ( OR BG LOLO )
Scar Symmetry
Maiden?

I dno, I listen to too many bands, which include non-metal bands. It's really hard to choose, but that would be it. There are a fuck load more that I'd want to add to that..

^ Replace Stam1na with Blind Guardian and I'd go.

Well let's say there would be Manowar, and... they would break their own record again and play so long that there would not be any time left for another band.




Oh and, the festival would last 3 days.

Enjoy your failed concert. No performer is going to want to play 3 straight sets.

Why? If it was a fesitval, like not even 1 hr sets - it would be easy.

Ensiferum played for nearly 2 hours fine on their DVD... and by share members, i mean 1 person... None of them are in all 3 bands.

Good luck, it's pretty lodged in there.
