Powerfest '09

[Dr. Pete]

Damn no Woods of Ypres. Now I might have to figure out a way to get to Minnesota.

If you're going, we should me up there. I originally planned to book this week, but I finally heard back from someone who was interested and now I'm pushing it back for about three weeks.

I probably wont know until the like the week of the show if I can go. My job right now is just not pulling in enough loot.

I am gonna try and formulate a semi-decent lineup though I will probably get flamed. I am also aware that there is more then likely too many bands from across the pond, but I think I put together some solid lineups.

Fri:
Entombed/King Diamond
Brainstorm/Dream Evil/Jag Panzer
Agalloch/Devin Townsend/Mercenary
Daylight Dies/Zimmer's Hole/Silent Force
Kiuas/War Machine
Visideon/Mindwarp Chamber

Saturday:
Blind Guardian (special set to get out of towners)
Borknagar/Vintersorg/Royal Hunt
Arsis (since they never get more then 30 minutes)/Heaven Shall Burn
Woods of Ypres/Power Quest
Persefone/Augury
Order Of Nine/Widow

Out of your list I'd LOVE to see Agalloch, (Didn't we mention them for last year?) Devin Townsend, Mercenary, Zimmer's Hole, War Machine, Mindwarp Chamber, Arsis, (yes , yes!) and Widow.

Nicely done!

Welcome my lil bro to UltimateMetal!! He has some good picks, but also some that wont work as well like Arch Enemy tours pretty regularly. A good pick I didnt think about was Rage or Adagio.

emperor and celtic frost would be very VERY hard. and unlikely.

 

[Dolamite S. Biffle]

emperor and celtic frost would be very VERY hard. and unlikely.

It would be cool though like they could land Emperor to do some kind of special set. Celtic Frost would be the same way, but due to the recent news of them disbanding I have to agree.

 

[Dolamite S. Biffle]

Emperor's over as well.

Oh I missed that announcement.

 

[KCMetal]

I was just listing some bands that would be nice to see, I don't really keep up to date with every single one of them, but I tried to list ones that hadn't toured in a bit, or seemed a bit inactive

[Vegetaman]

Oooh, Jag Panzer and Thunderstone. Very nice.

Also, Dream Evil... Now they would kick ass.

Emperor is would be so out of place. Celtic Frost would fit in fine with all the Doom metal we had in 07.

Seen Sonata Arctica, but wouldn't mind seeing them again. Battlelore's a real good one.
