Now that the line up has been revealed and some time has past for the dust to settle I have found myself to be very please with the line up this year in its entirety. There were some bands that were announced that I was not familiar with or at least not familiar with their music. After investigating and looking into each band, I dont think that there is one band that I will not find interesting and entertaining at this years PP.
It is easy for me to look back at ProgPowers gone by and say WOW,That was a strong show!. However, If I remember back at the actual time of the show I was not that impressed because I did not know many of the bands of had no interest in others with no real cause. Years later with a broader knowledge of the genres and bands out there I can look back with new eyes and see the greatness that has been at PP. Take Prog Power 2. I was going to go to this show but at the time, the only band I knew was Symphony X. I knew of Kamelot but was not familiar enough with them to care. In hind site it must have been a killer show based on the line up.
Now, 2007 ..
With blinders off I have looked into and have given every band on the bill a fair shake and there is not one dud on the bill. If you like metal, there is something here for everyone. As far as rating this show based on the knowledge I have of the line up at the time of the show, this ranks #1. I can say that I looking forward to seeing all bands on this line up and I think any nay Sayers will look back down the road and say That was a killer show, I wish I had gone.
Glen, My hat is off to you sir. Great Job.

... Virgin Steele) are very talented and IMO will make for a killer festival. I think I'm looking forward to this year's lineup even more than last year's. I've been coming since PPV and it seems to me like every year the lineup get's more impressive.
