Would love for Sabaton but they announced today their Sweden tour and that might be the big news

Really wouldn't bother me one bit if the final 5 were all repeat bands. Sabaton would certainly make me a happy little cruiser.

would not be upset either if the final 5 were repeats (BG, Testament, IE, ...)

Dibs on Amon Amarth if we get a repeat band. Sorry people, just the way it has to be

Metalwrath · by **Metalwrath** » Mon Jan 09, 2012 12:38 pm

Mine would probably be Iced Earth as i missed both their sets

by **DrinkMoxie** » Mon Jan 09, 2012 12:39 pm

I'd take Sodom, since I've still never seen 'em

I saw them do a cover of ace of spades.Then i left for more beer.

by **Stained Class** » Mon Jan 09, 2012 12:44 pm

If I got to pick one repeat I'd say Iced Earth because they have a new singer and so it'd be slightly different. Dark Tranquillity or Amon Amarth would be sweet too.

Warbringer's sound is a product of the really brutal thrash of Demolition Hammer (one of the hardest hitting thrash bands ever imo). I've never seen Onslaught before so I'm hoping they get announced, because I've already seen Warbringer a few times but I'd be happy either way.

you definitely want to look up the band Sargon (from Phoenix), they will be right up your alley!

Fuck yeah homie this is some awesome stuff. Thanks for the heads up!

Primordial would make me happy.

ok checking out now. i definitely do not think they're bad at all! they're good. just not all that special to me after growing up with the best thrash. while i don't think they're any big deal, they certainly have a solid thrash thing going on and they're better than a lot of new bands out today.

by **EvilDan** » Mon Jan 09, 2012 2:18 pm

Someone mentioned before about bands that want a vacation, so they wouldn't want to be announced until the end or sold out. Can anyone really think of an affordable band like this? Obviously Channel Zero brought out the Belgians, and along the same lines, if Mr. Big was announced, the Japanese would sell out the entire boat immediately. No one else would get a chance.

So are there any other bands like this, that are affordable, but have an extremely loyal following? I still wouldn't think anyone with a huge following would be interested. Because you'd still have 2000 fans mobbing you, whereas this lineup is so diverse that the bands know they're not going to get mobbed.

by **Malaka** » Mon Jan 09, 2012 4:06 pm

Last 5 bands:
Cradle of Filth (we're in talks last year)
Turisas (have been rumored all along)
Primordial (same as Turisas)
Warbringer (fits)
Scorpions (There is a scouting party nearby, and this would be our BIG announcement/surprise)

Bonus bands:
Symphony X
Morbid Angel
Thrash or Die!

You know, generally you're quite close with your predictions.

I'd be a happy camper if this happened, especially with Symphony x, Turisas, and Primordial

Want Turisas. And they want on and theyre not doing any shows until Feb 18 (Helsinki) so they COULD make it happen.
But I'm getting nervous because they're in Finland now, and they will be back there Feb 18, so it seems silly for them to come to the US just for this....but I hope I'm just being paranoid because I WANT THEM ON BROAD SO BAD

Dammit, I was hoping the Cradle of Filth prediction would piss everyone off!

I guess we'll find out...

Not so much if their set was off the first 3 albums only. Otherwise no thanks.

I wrote on Municipal Waste's FB page that i was hoping they would be on board. About five min later the post was removed.

Not that the band manages their own page....but got my hopes up slightly

I know Dave Witte from the Human Remains days. I talked to him about this many months ago (so things may have changed recently) but nothing was going on back then.

So in conclusion, I know nothing

Met Dave a couple times....extremely nice man. Although meeting him was sort of a "day the music died" for me as I realized Municipal Waste's lyrical content is nothing but a gimic to sell records. They DO NOT practice what they preach!

Yea yea, news flash Josh...most bands develope an image to help their sales (be it in metal or elsewhere)....

FUCK, can we board the boat yet?!?

I just did the same on Twisted Sister and Running Wild's page on FB,
same thing happened there.

Of all the bands that get grouped as "glam/hair/pop" metal...this is one of hte few that I would be ecstatic for! Dee Snider is a "card" as my Grandma would say

I'm not really a fan so I have no idea what they sing about. All I remember was Dave was "straight edge", no drinking or drugs. Only pot and pepsi

by **Malaka** » Mon Jan 09, 2012 7:01 pm

Pollstar.com has the Cleveland band, Runt, on the 70,000 Tons lineup. Many of you will hate this.

When a band is NOT listed on Metallum, that's a very bad sign indeed

I, in my 22 year old glory (my age at the time).....so looked forward to presenting him with THE finest herb that could be found in my home state....
Alas he laughed me off and rolled his eyes. I was CRUSHED

To set the scene...a buddy and me waited outside the show and cheered them off hte tour bus to come talk to us. They seemed genuinely annoyed....Whatever happened to heavy metal parking lots?!?

Oh well, probably a liability thing for him. Something tells me Monster Magnet would have been a lot more chumley!

by **KevinP** » Mon Jan 09, 2012 7:05 pm

Maybe he gave up the pot, but he was partaking in the early 90's

They're a Mushroomhead side-project I think. They're on the same label.

please for the love of Dio let this be bullshit

This better be bullshit. Last 5 bands need to be non-fillers, or at least metal bands!

by **Malaka** » Mon Jan 09, 2012 7:11 pm

Keep in mind, Pollstar is the Wikipedia of concert listings. Anyone could add their own band name to the list. But they had to come from somewhere, it just seems too random.

Well Mushroom head is a "side" cash cow/sellout project of Purgatory /Hatrix guys

Yup, that band. I've never heard of 'em until about 20 minutes ago. If you like Mudvayne, Mushroomhead, and Five Finger Death Punch, enjoy. Not for me, couldn't care less if they're onbroad or not. I can find other shit to do, and I won't bitch about any more bands. I'm happy with what I got.
