Holy Crap!!!!! Both days are killer line-ups Great Job Glenn

 

[dcowboys311]

Saturday just might be the greatest day in the history of the festival.

 

[Braxil]

Good balance between the power and prog on each day, can't wait for the headliners!

 

[Rick Pierpont]

Awesome! Looking forward to this! I can't wait to hear who you have in store for the headliners!

 

[VenomGA]

Good deal. Like others, I am waiting with baited breath for the headliners...

 

[Cheiron]

Ah yes. The ProgPower Diet Plan.

Step 1) Fill the lineup with bands that you can't afford to miss.
Step 2) Start the show before dinner and end after most food places are closed.
Step 3) Make sure venue runs out of food with 4 hours left to go.
Step 4) Watch your weight fall away.
Step 5) Get sick post-ProgPower and lose even more weight.

Nice order.

 

[mloanna]

4:00 start time is going to be the norm now, eh!! Well worth it though. Now for the Headliners

 

[Wayniac]

Whoa !!

Initial random thoughts:

Elvenking 5:15-6:00
Andromeda 6:30-7:30

Ooooh, Elvenking gets pwned!

I like the bowing to the inevitable and allowing a 45 minute changeover before the headliner.

Or could this be interpreted as the expected headliners *needing* an extra 15 minutes for a changeover because of, say, a large number of performers or vocalists? Hmmmm....

45 minuites of Elvenking and one hour of Iron Savior hardly seems like the 3 hours I was hoping each band would play for, but you know.. Gotta start somewhere. Elvenking will bring the house down just like Mercenary and will return victorious.

I was hoping Elvenking and Iron Savior would play on different nights, but thats only a personal preference. Volbeat should keep my attention on Friday night, so far, so maybe I'll actually take a night this coming year to watch the bands AND mingle instead of hugging the rail all night ... depending on the headliner of course.

Well, in all seriousness, we knew EK was a 2nd slot band and would only be given 45 minutes. Thats enough time to do some serious damage.

 

[DAVETHEMETALGUY]

damn!

Cool! Surprised Riverside got higher than Iron Savior, but after considering it, I understand. Not questioning, just didn't realize Riverside's status. I consider these two bands to be the most polarized, so it'll be funny to watch the "shift change" in the audience.. extreme Power Metal to mellow Prog Rock

I can't wait!

 

[J-Dubya 777]

Wow, Headliner is playing BOTH nights? They ROCK! Anybody hear their latest cd?


Seriously, next year sounds like fun!

I was thinking the same thing, especially if the headliner is really high energy or of the power metal genre. Oh well...unless I have a major epiphany during the next year, looks like Riverside is filling that After Forever dinner break for me this year.

I was personally surprised Volbeat (two albums) are billed higher than Elvenking (four albums), but Glenn seems to know what he's doing. Remember how many people bitched about Virgin Steele being billed so low?

 

[Harvester]

, but Glenn seems to know what he's doing.

Thanks..I think?
