Yes. Details TBD.

Oh, Claus - quit trying to stir up trouble!

I sincerely didn't mean to come across that way at all.. I just was trying to answer his question quickly and not step on Nathan's toes, too. That's all.

My apologies if I came across differently.


~Jen

Not at all love!
Very informative, as you always are and that is a great help to us!!!!

 

[SwordLord]

Will this be on The Prog Power stage or in The Loft ?

ProgPower Stage. The Loft is simply not big enough for this much epicawesomeness.

 

[SwordLord]

Meh.

Sorry I didn't appeal to your tastes with this line-up. By DT Fanatic, I'm assuming the DT is Dream Theater? You should give IN THE SILENCE a listen. They play some GOOD prog! And it's hard to imagine a DT fan not enjoying Wake of Magellan but to each his own.

Thanks for the feedback!

Nathan, you made it really tough on yourself to top that lineup during your second year as Kickoff Promoter!

CIIC =

[General Zod]

Nice job Nathan. Totally psyched for In The Silence.

 

[Purveyor Of Evil]

Hell yeah. I've always liked Luca Turilli's solo stuff more than Rhapsody so this should be really cool.

IMHO, King of Nordic Twilight is the best thing LT ever did. And, I LOVE Legendary tales and Symphony of Enchanted Lands. Basically, everything up to and including Power of the Dragonflame is mandatory. The material drops off after that. I still love them, though. Both versions of the band. KoNT is still in a class by itself no matter what.

 

[Purveyor Of Evil]

Here's some amazing cheesy goodness! Olaf Hayer sings on all three LT solo albums. Excellent voice!

 

[mattbrood]

Meh.

can you expound on that statement?

 

[Dave@BEC]

Very cool line-up!

~Jen

Short and sweet ! Thats what I get for not paying attention

 

[LetTheWookieWin]

Rhapsody's set is including full production with fog, snow, and video, so I'll assume this is Center Stage *that was sarcasm* haha

Laugh it up, Fuzzball

[Purveyor Of Evil]

can you expound on that statement?

He's a Dream Theater fanatic. Isn't that explanation enough?

That is a pretty terrific album. Cheese X1000, but still so awesome.

 

[ApolloFC]

Great ones for the festival. The fact that I already know In The Silence and like them helps. I may go just to see some form of Savatage... as for Rhapsody... I may just check a few of their songs live then head out early. Never been a rhapsody fan and epic power metal just doesn't seem to float my boat.

 

[Bryant]

Great job Nathan !!! I am actually not a big fan of CIIC or Rhapsody, but that first band sounds really good. I am going to have to check them out.

[AngraRULES]

I just realized that there is a huge chance we'll get songs from King of the Nordic Twilight, including The Ancient Forest of Elves. Holy shit, this is going to kill!!

 

[SwordLord]

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has responded and left feedback, I am very encouraged! This was not an easy (or cheap) line-up to put together, so I am happy that so many of you are stoked for this show.

I don't want to give too much away at this point, but those of you who are hoping for stuff from Kings of the Nordic Twilight are going to be extremely happy! :Spin:

Again, even though the video says 6:00pm, it looks like we have too much epicawesomeness (yes that's my new phrase for this show and everyone who starts using it is cool) to squeeze in before midnight, so the doors will OPEN AT 5:30PM and the actual MUSIC WILL START AT 6:00PM. At this point, this is 99.99% official. I am just waiting for some last pieces of confirmation and then I will announce show logistics in a different thread.

THANKS AGAIN! I hope you all will make this - it so shall rule, I promise! :danceboy:

 

[dtfanatic]

Not that I have to explain myself but here goes:

-In the Silence sounded generic.
-I like Savatage but don't want to see CIIC play it and I find them boring.
-Rhapsody in any incarnation is beyond horrible as is mostly all power metal.

However I wil go on Friday and Saturday as I usually do.
