I am gonna go out on a limb and say that no one else on this board will endorse even half of this list, but these bands are absolutely killer, get little to no press, and destroy many of the bands that have already appeared at PP (IMO) If you DO like these bands, feel free to chime in - it's the only way to get some of them recognition.....

I'm curious... How many ways can a wishlist thread be titled?

Don't ask that or they will need a new thread to figure that out, too.

Pretty Maidens would kick ass. Wolf is to metal for that crowd, not Dream Theater sounding enough... Um, not even close. Seeing Blitzkreig would be a cream dream. Oh yeah, give it up for the NWOBHM
But were is the "prog" what of maybe Camel? I know to boring. Well why nota truely progressing metal band like Hammers of Misfortune? Hell, Stolen Babies "progresses" more than a lot of the past bands and ones mentioned.
Like to see more older bands if we are talking power metal; a Warrior reunion, Vicious Rumors seems like an obvious one. I'm still amazed that Fates Warning and Hammerfall have never been there. And I have given up on the dream of a Crimson Glory reunion. Besides don't think old Midnight could pull it off.
I got you one, Legend 1978 from Kansas dig those guys up. They were good.

 

[Pellaz]

Ayreon
Therion
Mindflow

Scar Symmetry
Arcturus

...I'll edit in some more later

Lighten up guys! If you don't like, then don't read it.

[DarkOne]

Rather than a huge list of bands I like, I'll keep it to bands I REALLY want to see (and I'm ecstatic that I finally get to cross Virgin Steele off that list). There are tons of other bands that I'd love to see, but some have played PP before or tour my area (Sym X, Iced Earth) or just aren't feasible for PP (Iron Maiden). I included the ones that fit in and wouldn't otherwise be touring the states much.

• Mob Rules (love this band - not earth shattering or anything new, but consistently good power metal)
• Falconer (this band is so perfect for PP. Can't imagine why they haven't been here yet).
• Nocturnal Rites (Last three albums have been stellar)
• Pyramaze (Barlow - Need I say more!)
• Serenity (debut is amazing)

The mother of all requests is one I know Glenn really wants, and probably has the smallest chance of happening:

• Savatage 25th Anniv Reunion Show (Am I being too greedy if I ask for this one to take up 2 headliner spots?)

~Brian~

I was just kidding around. I enjoy getting caught up in the anticipation as much as the next guy.

 

[AMBR]

I started putting this in the "clues", then the "predictions" threads, but it's really a wish list. Though all these threads are kind of the same, no?

I'm seeing Nocturnal Rites in the "almost debut" category.
Other possibilities I'd love would be Amorphis, Mob Rules or Mind Flow.

Nightwish would be awesome with Orphaned Land or Brainstorm as returning bands.

Newbies? There are so many still, it's hard to guess, but I'd love to see:
Machine Men
Kotipelto
Cloudscape
Kiuas
Ensiferum
Heavenly
Elis
Ghost Machinery
Twilightening
Balance of Power
(Tarot for X)

If they release new stuff:
Dionysus
Penumbra

CLEARLY Mercenary is headlining the showcase.

That would unbelievably kick ass!!
I'd also like to see:
Dark Empire
Suspyre
Halycon Way
Dead Soul Tribe
Circus Maximus
Manticora
Prototype
