Wow! I checked out this Volbeat band. They're like Elvis meets the Misfits meets...I don't know...Load-era Metallica: Pool Of Booze The Garden's Tale (nice black tooth, dude!) Sad Man's Tongue This is absolutely killer stuff! Never quite heard this combination of styles before. They even have a song called "Mr. & Mrs. Ness." ![]() |

It's just a way to make the "festival" a success since prog fans aren't that abundant. |

Read an editorial about this years festival, and it sounded like a disaster, sound and managment-wise. Did any of you guys attend? |

There were a few sound problems here and there. Honestly my biggest complaint was the temperature at times, but it was explained after the fact that some singers need it to be a certain temp or else their voice locks up. Sound problems off the top of my head: Beginning of Sonata's set First song of the allstar jam (final count down cover) Floors mic wasnt on at all and they played through the whole song. They replayed it after they realized that the mic wasnt working. Edit: for a festival that size I actually think it went fairly well. I just wish they would have had the smokers actually have to exit the building to smoke. |
