Just got my copy of "Heathen Machine" yesterday and the album rocks! Too bad my best friend borrowed it and didn't give it back. In the back of the booklet the band thanks Glenn H. at PP Festival. Does this mean B.O.P. is a confirmed band??

i'll agree that that's for Progpower II. didn't Heathen Machine come out before Progpower IV even happened? and therefore waaaaay before Glenn would have started negotiating bands for Progpower V?
 
Actually, Heathen Machine came out after PPIV. Plus, There is over a two year gap in which B.O.P. has played at Progpower. Glenn might really dig this band and want them to return for next year. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

I wish! Just checked out the BOP website. They are confirmed for BloodStock on Sept 3rd and 4th 2004. Not sure what weekend PP5 is planned for but if it's 3-4, we're out of luck....
 
I would love for BoP to return to ProgPower. Until then, we'll just have to catch them at a few festivals including Bloodstock next September, and in March at the Building A Force festival, which was recently announced:
