Official ProgPower USA XIV Roster - September 6-7, 2013

Unfortunately Mike Baker, the original vocalist died in 2008. The new guy Brian Ashland reminds me a lot at times of Geoff Tate (prior to blowing out his voice).

Completely agree. Tate can be completely heard in his voice.
 
This. This is one of the main reasons we moved ProgPower up one week next year.

Music Midtown draws approx. 60K and is typically the last 2 weekends of September at Piedmont Park.

This year, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, Avett Brothers, Ludacris, TI, Florence + the Machine performed.

"If this does not sell out, something is very, very wrong. There is something for everyone here. This lineup has about eight bands on it that I would be happy to pay to see them on their own. Now, if I can only drag the wife to Atlanta next year. "

Wait, so has Wolf played the US before?

They sure have! I saw them in Cleveland at the BWBK show back in 2003 in support of Black Wings. Can't believe that was 10 years ago already...wow! Pretty amazing show that also included Candlemass, Trouble, Evergrey, Nevermore, Jag Panzer AND Falconer, just to name a few. Entombed was also scheduled to appear but due to medical issue, had to cancel.

Really looking forward to seeing WOLF again! :kickass:
 
Here's my comprehensive "study" spotify playlist. It was created using all the band's previous setlists I could find to try and get a realistic idea of what would be played. Of course, some artists CDs are not all on Spotify (Xandria) and some bands have yet to release music yet, so that's why there are gaps.

It's not perfect. Try to enjoy it without telling me what you want changed.

You can either do the web player or add me to see the playlist. Josh Anderson

Yes my friend, The inaugural BWBK fest, that was a good time indeed! Wolf tore it up then and I'm sure will do the same at ProgPower!
