VERY excited about Jane's Addiction playing Soundwave. Was so shattered when they cancelled their oz tour 1 week beforehand... Plus Meshuggah & ISIS being part of Soundwave as well! Two of my favourites. I'll be at the festival and hopefully some sideshows too.
 
Wanting to buy some type of huge touring metal festival that doesn't have a shit ton of crap bands that go along with it -_-.

Meh @ Dream Theater touring again. Met them, got Petrucci's pick, seen an awesome set list, probs won't taint that memory.
Awesome @ Soundwave 2010. Not many bands I'm over the moon about, but a ton of bands I'd go and see in my spare time. Not ones I'd specifically go out and spend money on.
Lol @ Brisbane getting shafted with sideshows yet again. Oh well. Still going to Screamfest so.
 
How can Soundwave have so many bands that I don't want to see? It'll end up being mega expensive for maybe one or two bands. HIM is one of my favourite bands and I'll probably go when they play, but I feel pretty empty when looking at 98% of the rest of the line-up.

As for Dark Funeral/Rotting Christ, there's no way I'm missing this. I saw RC in France and they are amazing. As for Dark Funeral, I'm a big fan with most of their albums on original disk and am very interested in seeing them live. I'll also go and see Sonata Arctica and Ensiferum, although I saw the former in France and the latter in London, but I really want to see Ensiferum again. Cynic I also saw in London and won't bother with again.
 
As for Dark Funeral/Rotting Christ, there's no way I'm missing this.

Agreed, Rotting Christ being a band I've listened to for a long time...

...and Cynic I'll see also... I'd like to see Ensiferum but the whole folk/viking metal thing is starting to take its toll on me due to saturation...we'll see.

Apparently the bands they got this year were much more expensive than last year, which is why there are also less bands. Quality over quantity I suppose.

OPETH AUSTRALIAN TOUR

In a metal world starved for integrity, intelligence and beauty, Opeth shine like a beacon through dark clouds. They are artistic visionaries and their transcendent live shows have gone down in music folklore.

Combining towering blasts of blackened death metal with the intricacy of 1970s prog rock and the more subtle, gentle beauty of folk, Opeth continue to create epic and iconic music; inventing and reinventing the rules as they go along.

No wonder the metal world stops whatever it’s doing and pauses with bated breath each time the band announce an album or tour. In just over a decade and across nine studio albums, they have become the standard bearer for modern metal.

Opeth have reinforced their hold on the mantle of the most innovative, creative and revered heavy artist of recent times with the release of 'Watershed'. These Swedes continue to venture where others couldn't fathom and have returned with a treasure trove of songs that makes most so-called sonic adventurists seem positively one-dimensional. ‘Watershed’ picks up where 2005’s flawless ‘Ghost Reveries’ left off, beginning contemplatively before erupting into full-bore chaos…”it defies all expectations and moves in completely new and wholly unexpected direction”- Metal Underground

Tickets for Opeth’s upcoming Australian November tour will not last long.
