Wow! Finally, FINALLY!!! NOCTURNAL RITES!!!!
Awesome line-up, although, admittedly, a bit heavy on the power side. Hey, we had our prog for this year. Time to headbang to some serious power!
Between TYR and Stormwarrior on Friday night, I may have to get my viking roots on!
I saw TYR at PaganFest last year and thought they did awesome (although Turisas that totally kicked that night - Hey, wait a minute! Friggan Turisas would be awesome at a future ProgPower! - but I digress)
I honestly cannot remember, but I think I DGM was one of the bands I put in for sponsorship! So needless to say, I was stoked to see that announced!
As for Delain, I found of copy of their CD,
April Rain at BEST BUY of all places!! I remember browsing through the CDs and saw that Delain CD, and thinking - "Hey, this looks cool - I'll go grab it!", only to take it home and be totally and utterly blown away at what I heard. So, natually, grabbed their debut album when I saw it at the vendors section.
The only band that I am not familiar with was Oceans of Sadness. I'll hit up the vendors section to see if I can find their CD.
Overall, an awesome lineup that I am already stoked about getting to see next year, barring any major catastrophes.
