Who do you guys think will steal the show this year?

[AngraRULES]

Well, last year I thought Edguy and Angra both had the best shows during the festival. What about this year? I have a very good feeling that Nightwish and Circle II Circle will do it this year.. Can't wait to prove me right or wrong...

What do you guys think??

 

[INFINITE-DREAMS]

You Are Right About Edguy,they Were Awsome. I Think Circle Ii Circle Are Going To Be My Favorite, But I Think Mercenary And Redemption Are Going To Put On A Good Show!

 

[Darrin]

I'm not sure who will steal the show, but I know my most anticipated band of PP4 is now Evergrey.

Finally after years of hearing about the band and a few occasions of listening without anything clicking, I finally "get it" and now I must see them.

I don't think anyone's going to steal the show. I think everyone expects most of the bands to totally rock, and they will. If there's one band that may surprise people by rocking their world, I'd say Circle II Circle.

Rrrrrraaaaaaaaaagggggggeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[YtseJammer]

Symphony X no doubt in my mind.

Vanden Plas and Circle II Circle close behind

 

[Demonspell]

I would say Redemption, even though they have been getting lots of good press here...and Mercenary will definitely follow in the love/hate path of Devin Townsend and Nightingale...

 

[Mephistopheles]

I think Mercenary is going to be loved a lot more than Devin Townsend was though.

Rage

 

[Bryant]

I think the show will be great and all bands are going to play well, but I look for Redemption and Vanden Plas to turn the most heads. I guess we will see.

NIGHTWISH!!!!

 

[Keepwalking]

Secret Sphere!!!

A few months ago I might have agreed, but their new one is getting some negative reviews already, and based on what I've heard from it, they are at least partially justified...

you might be right... "Runaway Train" is awesome... but the clip I heard of "1000 Eyes Show" is rather awful... and the song titles are hilarious.

 

[towersofavarice]

secret sphere. Yes, their new album is different, i think the titles a bit funny, but meant to be, and its not just power metal anymore, which i love. It mixes all different geners.

[ProgMetalFan]

unfortunately it mixes the horrible genre of hard rock. Bleh!

 

[DAVETHEMETALGUY]

Rage, No Doubt!

 

[Rage_109]

One more for RAGE!!!! Followed by Evergrey and Symphony X...

 

[LuCinda]

VandenPlas, Evergrey and Symphony X.
The one who will turning my head is: ANDYANDYANDYANDYANDYANDYANDYANDYANDYANDYANDYANDYANDY and did I say ANDY?

These shows don't get stolen by any one band. The talent level is just too high. Shows get stolen when you have an opener and a headliner, and the opener blows the headliner away. No one in the known universe can blow Symphony X off the stage. They're just too tight, too energetic, and own too strong of a catalogue.

Who will people be talking about, on this board, the week after the festival? Who will receive this years commemorative Angel Dust award? My vote goes for Vanden Plas. I think this band is the most underrated band at the show and will fly in (if they fly in) under a lot of folk's radar. And from what I've heard (Bryant's insane rantings aside), they're very tight and very energetic live.
