Yeah, those damn power metal fans!!!!!!
Just kidding Vito - You know I am a HUGE power metal fan too, and will be prancing to the flower metal sounds of Sonata Arctica next week as well.
I never saw Frost live. I recall them opening for Anthrax and Exodus at the Aragon.
Should be interesting to hear their new album.

Tickets went on sale today.
Isn't the Vic one of the bigger venues? I've never been there but I know that's where Megadeth played two nights in a row in 2001.

Holy moly!!! Tickets in NY are $45???
Does anyone know if they are touring with anyone else?
That new album cover is amazing.

I can tell you I have direct info that the band is not happy about the pricing and fought their management furiously over it. I bought my ticket way before the show was confirmed earlier this the week.
Well, I paid $110 to see Dream Theater at MSG in 04.
Word of touring with Emperor. Stay tuned on the CF site and web forum.

While CF should have no problem drawing large crowds to their shows because of how highly anticipated this reunion/tour is, I think those high ticket prices are going to hurt them, particularly in terms of getting newer fans to come check them out. The diehards like myself would spend twice as much as that if necessary because, well, we're diehard fans. But your average 18 year old who's heard and read about CF and might be interested in checking them out is probably not going to spend that money to see them. While I'm sure alot of the old fans say "good, we don't want a bunch of newbie youngsters there anyhow", I can almost guarantee you that CF themselves don't agree and would love to be exposed to new, young fans.
Adding some other "big" bands to the bill like Emperor will help make that ticket price seem a bit more feasable at least. Celtic Frost/Emperor would be a pretty hot show, with maybe a really good opening act as well. I sure wish it could be us, but it'll be a cold day in hell before the promoters put a band like us on the bill unfortunately.

Don't worry. This is the US remember?
That means the opener will be yet another metalcore act on Metal Blade or Roadrunner.

Would be a killer show, definitely.
Pop in on the message board and say hello.
Just a fan that's very excited about the upcoming news.
I have spoken to Tom over the years and was treated with much respect.

Im sure they already have an opener planned, but a Frost / Usurper show WOULD kill in Chicago, I assure you.
