Hi folks... I've been away from the festival for a few years, but I always loved this community... I've gotten to know a few of you during this past decade, some of you for even longer (the people on the Savatage forum), so I felt compelled to open this thread to share some news...
After 11 years in the USA I am moving back to my native Brazil... I've had a great time here, I can honestly call the US my second home... But it was time to move back and spend some quality time with the family... Everybody still lives there (parents, brother, grandfather, etc).
And this no BS, I really do want to thank Glenn for progpower. It really meant a lot to me, especially on those early years when there were NO prog/power metal shows in the US.... For somebody like me, who used to live in a great power metal market, it was really frustrating to not have any shows..
I remember when I first heard about Prog Power 2... I went absolutely crazy when I found out Ark, Angel Dust and a few others favorites were coming to Atlanta... ahha I was a broke ass high school student, but I found a way to make it to the festival... And I met some great people as well...
Well this is it... I sent all my stuff out today, I will be moving out of my apartment and I will live with friends for a couple of months until I finish some personal business... By the end of the year I will out of here.
Hopefully I will be able to attend the festival again in the future.
