IRON SAVIOR

[7thSaviour]

I LOVE this band! One of my power metal favorites! I am SO psyched that Piet Sielck and his side band Savage Circus will be playing this year's fest. I just hope that IS gets an invite to play at PPUSA VIII! Who else digs this idea?

 

[J-Dubya 777]

Count me in! Would love to see them w/Kai & Thomen (the original lineup)

Agreed.

 

[Dark One]

Absolutely would be a worthy addition to any PP lineup. A 3rd slot sounds about right (4th if Kai were to join them onstage - a nice possibility if Gamma Ray were to ever play PP again).

I hope Kai joins Savage Circus for an encore number this year. You never know, right?

I'm pretty sure Kai's not going to come to ProgPower to play one or two songs in a 45-minute set for a semi-opening band.

I'm pretty sure Kai's not going to come to ProgPower to play one or two songs in a 45-minute set for a semi-opening band.

4th slots are 1 hr this year, but I'm sure you're right that he's not comming.

I kinda doubt that we'll ever see Iron Savior with Kai. My fiancee and I did an interview with him at the NYC Gamma Ray show and I asked him about Iron Savior. He didn't seem too happy with the question and just gave me a short reply. Don't get me wrong, Kai was extremely cool to talk to, just wasn't too happy about Iron Savior.

Piet himself has said that Iron Savior has never played the US because it wouldn't be financially sound to do so. Any tour offer for the US they've received would have resulted in paying to come over here from Germany.

I would say that at Prog Power, Iron Savior would be well taken care of, and could find the show to be lucrative enough to debut in the US. Hell, I'd pay a 150 dollar ticket if this band were mixed in with the lineup (there are a few bands for which this is true).

 

[Iced Ray]

Good solid metal band.

You can add $50 extra to my ticket, too, if IS, PF, and Labyrinth all play on the same bill!

 

[Eternal Legacy]

I totally dig this idea! This is on of my all time favorites. I would definately pay an extra $50.00 to see them. I sure hope they play some Iron Savior this year.

Yeah, that would rule! Maybe if enough folks agreed to raise the ticket prices, Glenn would agree to hire IS to play next year?

PIET! PIET! PIET!
This one's for Heavenly Call!
Iron Savior rules!

HA HA HA! Iron Savior does indeed "rule."

 

[GoRillaBoy76]

They had one of my favorite sets last years, (of course there were alot of good ones last year)

 

[7thSaviour]

HA HA HA! Iron Savior does indeed "rule."

Right on, Chris! That was one helluva fun set they put on that night!

We can agree to disagree on IS, EOT. It's all good, bro!

The IS set goes into my Top 5 List of all-time greatest PPUSA sets and certainly in the Top 10 List of all the shows I've ever been to.
