[MajestikMøøse]

that setlist must be about 2 hours long... It makes me wonder how much time they're giving Evergrey to start.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

It's at least 2 hours, which is what a headliner should get IMO.

Evergrey will get the standard 1st-of-3 bands time slot, which is about 35-40 minutes.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

impressive. Too bad its still not enough to make me travel 300km to go see it.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

Im going simply because i was offered a ticket and ride. I like Iced Earth but i wouldnt consider myself i big fan or anything. Im fairly intigued by the small amount of Evergrey ive heard though. And as for COB.... I dont think anything needs to be said on the subject.

 

[Demonspell]

Because they're the fucking Mozart of metal! Anyone know what Evergrey's setlist is?

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I think it was posted in the Evergrey forum Brian. It was only 7 songs, but apparently cut 1 short due to the show starting late or something like that.

 

[Dark One]

Because they're the fucking Mozart of metal!

 

[General Zod]

A set list I saw posted elsewhere, did not include "Dracula". I hope they do play it, as it's my favorite IE tune. I'll be real curious to hear how Tim handles it.

With all the MTV exposure that Evergrey's been getting, is COB still more popular in the US?

Zod

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Probably Zod, just because their music is much more in line with the teenage mainstream tastes here. Evergrey, exposure notwithstanding, doesn't make easily digestable schtuff.

That's your fave IE song? Interesting. Other than a couple of tracks ("Dracula" included), I really did not like Horror Show. Having said that, when Barlow ripped "Wolf" to shreds up on stage, I was absolutley floored. He even took the high harmonies, whereas most vocalists would chicken out and take the 'easier' lower key vox.

Quick threadjack, but what do you think of Wolverine, Zod? Particularly their latest album? I bet you would like it.

I'll go with "Dante's Inferno" and "Desert Rain", the latter being the single most underrated IE song IMO.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

Yea Dracula is my favorite IE song. They better fucking play that song. BTW whats Evergrey like? Ive never had the urge to pick up anything by them.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

They are self-proclaimed "dark metal," which you can translate as dark, melodic metal with some power elements and some prog elements. Nice, not overpowering keys, rumbling rhythm section, great guitar, and a singer that reminds me of Bob Seger.

I would hardly call Evergrey "buttrock," but hey, whatever.
