It will be LACUNA COIL. Their new album just came out, and they’re promoting it heavily, including a full interview on Sirius XM. Very interesting interview, too bad I don’t care for their music.

Hoping for HATEBREED

Will there ever be one single Band announced? I´m loosing hope...! Get yourself together! We must not despair in such troubled times You´re right! We have to stay cool and wait for the first Announcement two days prior to the cruise...! They’re the ones who have to stay cool. We have our money. The...

they have yet to break any promises or commitments Lol https://70000tons.com/home/ “Book your cabins NOW” https://70000tons.com/terms-conditions/ https://70000tons.com/payment-questions/ https://70000tons.com/payment-schedule/ https://youtu.be/FIj1wj34AwU “I made some changes so that should anythin...

But Day 1, 2, and 3 were, so the repeat comment is valid for them.
The voiceover on Day 4 was clearly recorded more recently than April (“book your cabin”), which shows that this vid was intended to be released close to booking, which is probably why it was not posted initially. Building hype.

Day 4 video is now posted! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6XtU-Ui9DE The first repeat announcement of 2019!(Same video was posted In April),they added the bumper in the beginning and near the end”The logo “ X “ rotation into upright position with clock ticking sound.Time is up perhaps,time for ba...

I expect a post consisting of a video showing the new logo rotating with a clock sound, like in the recaps, but in a loop.
A few hours after the post of the Day 4 recap tomorrow at the same time as the other 3.
Which conveniently allows to avoid the use of the word SOON.

Yeah, BRACE YOURSELVES, because the ship is moving FULL SPEED AHEAD.
I’m not expecting to see the ship’s tender, I expect ALL THE NEWS to COME THIS WEEK.

To think that we are **still** trying to guess the first announcement date...

Good news, most of these bands are eligible for 2020! This quote: Epica - Mark Jansen says not this edition makes me think that EPICA was already booked for 2020 last year. UPDATE DEFINITELY OUT - Touring, not touring, breaking up, etc :) Aftertime - touring Alkaloid - members touring with other ban...

Nah, tomorrow is Day 4 recap day, at 6pm EDT.

New here to posting on the forum, long time browser though lol. My girlfriend and I were first time cruisers in 2019 and had the time of our lives. We will be returning next year and with all the excitement and anticipation building up for next year, figured I’d join in on the forum. With that said...

We're going to get the Day 2, 3 and finally 4 recaps of this year first. Then on Monday evening (European Time) the first 5 bands will be announced. In the night between Monday and Tuesday booking dates for Gold are going to be revealed. That's my prediction... Day 2 today, Day 3 Monday, Day 4 Tues...

Revising my list due to Epica being as good as confirmed, and Brother of Metal being ruled out. Godflesh Given Justin’s current project(s), I seriously doubt it (none of them are metal). OTOH, GODFLESH is just two guys and a MacBook, so very cheap. But I don’t see Justin doing it for $100 of onbroa...

I’ve rarely been right before, so let me be wrong again: the first announced band will be LAMB OF DOG

Looks like at least 2 of my guesses will be onbroad. No clue if they’ll be among the first bands announced. Who do you think will be among the first announced for 2020? I'll buy a beer for whoever gets the most right in the first run of band announcements. My guesses: Demons & Wizards Epica Annihil...

The following bands will be in Dallas, TX on January 11th:
Carcass
Vio-lence
Razor
Deafheaven
Power Trip

All those bands and festivals with a countdown are so lame. Clearly, not announcing anything - and I mean, *anything* - is the superior strategy. Also, Rockville is not having their first announcement, it’s their 10th, on 10/10. They have a countdown on their website. Remind you of something? Sorry...

Remember the cruise bikini that SCOUR posted on FB on January 8th 2018?
That led to nothing, like this cruise.

FEAR FACTORY is reported inactive due to legal issues

Dipper, ladle, scoop.

LMFAO

SOOOON

not

SPOOOOOON!!!

OOPPS!

Yep, they'll be playing in Miami the day after the boat sails, and in Cozumel the day after the boat visits it.
What a coincidence!

If they're playing in Miami on January 8th, they aren't onbroad.

STATIC X is playing the Hell&Heaven festival.

Dipper, ladle, scoop.

And this whole thinning out the herd theory I have seen being tossed up, I find disturbing to be honest. If that was the thinking, the planning here, what a disgrace! A ten year anniversary should never be about thinning out the survivors who have made this cruise/event a spectacular journey each y...

Here’s what I think we’ll get next:
- nothing
- nada
- zip
- zilch
- bumpkis
In that order.

In the end, aren’t we all Brothers of Metal - MANOWAR BTW, it looks like the MANOWAR song generator got renamed Power Metal Song Generator, probably due to some copyright issues: https://www.powermetalsong.com/ But, someone recently dadsplained to me that MANOWEAR is not actually power metal, I forg...

- NO mention of it on facebook

At this point, 70000Tons posting a poolgirl on FB would be equivalent to asking a bleeding road wreck victim if they’d be interested in saving 15% on car insurance.
Don’t do it, folks.

Scroll down, dude. Or up, depending on your viewing settings.

Correction: it was October, not August. Part 1 I posted Dutch metalmagazine Aardschok’s review on 70K before. This is a rough translation of the interview with the skipper. During the cruise organiser Andy Piller is ‘hard to get’. There is so much stuff going on. The run-up to the cruise and four da...

My personal opinion: it's just harder and harder to find big/good names willing to come on the boat, and they are unable to assemble their line-up for 2020. Just remember last year, Napalm Death joined at the very last minute and they were asked just a few days before the cruise (Barney even joked ...

"Thanks to everyone who drove here! You truly are the United Nations of Heavy Metal!!"

This thread is living up to its name so far

Dear Dallas,
You can rest assured that we will reply to you in the very near future.
Don't hesitate to send your questions or comments to info@70000tons.com
Sincerely,
Your friendly 70000 Tons of Metal crew

So I guess this YouTube thing was just another way to buy a couple of days without any real news.

Days? Try a couple of weeks.
