Seven Spires said they are willing to do the cruise and will accept if asked.

Izergrim - Quitting after this summer

Since Nevermore played the first 70k edition, would be nice to have a Warrel Dane Tribute event, maybe with Jeff Loomis, dont know

did anyone read the comment section?

Final Disaster, Modern-ish Metal from Brazil
https://open.spotify.com/track/42Dz5ylT ... RQjBavzyug

Couldn't make it in 2020, but i hope to be there in 2021 So here's my wishlist: Accept Alestorm Amorphis Angra Annihilator Cradle of Filth Children Of Bodom Danko Jones Dark Lunacy Dark Tranquillity Diablo Swing Orchestra Dimmu Borgir Edguy Eluveitie Evergrey Final Disaster Gloryhammer Gotthard Infe...

Its good to see everything going back to normal

0 - Einherjer
0/1 - Emperor
1/2 - Epica
1 - Haggard
1 - Origin

I know Final Disaster wants to play, but dont know about any contacts between band and UMC

And Torture Squad might be talking to UMC about being in 2020

I'm guessing Insomnium and Epica will be the first ones and maybe Annihilator

But I'm hoping for Jinjer, Demons And Wizards, Alestorm and (why not?) Slayer

Torture Squad could be onboard.. and would be awesome

And any band with Fabio Lione

First, I never believe people saying "I'm most certainly out this time", "this is making me seriously consider dropping after 5 years", "this time my money will, almost for sure, go somewhere else", "organization sucks so I think I'm skipping next round". Never have, never will. I am quite confiden...

We could have Racer X

And now, lets guess which of these we get next! - them actually fixing the change of payment plan date in all referenced pages on the site, AND TELLING US ABOUT IT? - a "100 days to go" post? - the next iteration of "poolgirl of the month"? - a band announcement? - booking code emails? no 100 days ...

Combo of 2 & 6. I want an explanation for this shit, but at the same time, I really want to go again.

but with exchange rates in my country becoming unpredictable and fligh prices, its becoming harder by the day for me

I'm going with radio silence untill October 2nd

We are living in isterensting times, are we not?

I would say the 21st is a logical choice for the first announcement. I can picture the UMC meeting: UMC crew: "Hey Andy, the cruise is 3 weeks earlier next year. When should we start announcing?" Andy: "Hm... Yeah tough question. Cruise 3 weeks earlier, so let's..." UMC crew: "... start announcing ...

Last gig: Metaldays
Next gig: Final Disaster

Where's our 2020 Megathread, Andy?

Literally my only hope is that this IS the 2020 megathread..

I thought it was too, but the fact that it isn't pinned says otherwise :(

i thought so

Last gig: Dakhmas
Next gigs: Edu Falaschi's Moonlight aaaaand after that METALDAYS!!

any possible Angra Reunion or Shaman Reunion is now out of question...

RIP Andre Matos

too late do join?

i'm guessing july 2nd

Interesting. A forumite was talking to security and it sounded very much like a bigger boat was on the horizon. Where's the post where they confirm it? It was a response to a comment on the Thank you post: “We will back on the Independence once again in 2020 😉” I wonder why they added a wink... Loo...

I know that they could just be booked on their own, but this combination on the lineup for me: - ICED EARTH and BLIND GUARDIAN, therefore DEMONS & WIZARDS D&W would be awesome! I would love to have Angra & Arch Enemy to see Alissa singing Black Widow's Web (or Torture Squad, since Mayara did sing i...

Surely Andy would like to, as much as possible, get the old gang back together for 2020? These are 2011 bands that haven't been on 70k since: Witchburner The Absence (have been absent... *badoom tish!*) Saxon Sanctuary/Nevermore Malevolent Creation Forbidden Dusk Machine Circle II Circle Candlemass...

All in my signature

and Amon Amarth, Myrath and Torture Squad!

Won't be making it this year


see you all in 2020!

and have an amzing cruise!!

Fuck yes!!!!! Been wanting to see Onslaught forever! I missed the 2013 cruise (went on BTH instead) and it crushed me they weren't on the cruise I took that year. So happy!!! That's the 6th band from that cruise on the line-up now. At this rate, you won't have missed anything :D 2013 is my favorite...

The ONSLAUGHT for 70000TONS OF METAL, The Original, The World's Biggest Heavy Metal Cruise has just begun! Make sure you join us for Round 9 next January! Missing this event would be a "P"erilous mistake... That's not what it said at first. It said "G"rave mistake. What happened? I also saw that......

We are proud to announce that SOULFLY will join us onbroad Round 9 of 70000TONS OF METAL, The Original, The World's Biggest Heavy Metal Cruise. But wait!

what the hot tub and beach are for.

Hot tub? You mean 70,000 Gallons of Urine!

Razor scale. 5 - 2 setter, I don't give a fuck who it conflicts with, everyone else can fuck off (only for 1 band) 4 - 2 setter, no matter what (unless conflicts with other 4's happen) - similar to '2' 3 - 1 set for sure, second one more than likely but depends on overlappings - similar to '1/2' 2 -...
