I'm in lazy mode right now. Plus the cat knocking a glass of wife onto the keyboard a few weeks ago has caused some keys to stick. Starting to drive me nuts.
And you spelled DEFINITELY wrong you stinkin' Canadian Nazi
Nothing more pathetic than pointing about a spelling error and making one yourself.

just make sure you have your earplugs to deal with the whining and complaining
And to boot my mouse is getting old and will either not click at all, or double click. Add that to the keyboard issues and I feel very McQuenn-ish lately

I'm under no delusion that Arsis or The Absence got paid, just a free cruise. Those were throw in's since they had extra cabin space (I assume).
But most any band of any respestability got something

So it can´t be long until something comes out
I have an actual letter that Kári Streymoy from Týr got (since he wrote his setlist on the back of it - which I got after their second show) - a whopping $50 per person spending credit!viathyn wrote:The drummer for The Absence told me in detail what they recieved.. free drinks (or a voucher for a certain limit per person) on the 2 days they played, free cruise, and yes, they did get paid on top. Pretty good deal, especially considering they didn't have to go far to get on the boat!

I didn't think the cruise line was comping them completely at all, waay too much $$$ they would leave on the table. And if they did I would have been hella pissed. I bought Warrel Dane a Long Island Ice Tea, and if he was getting them for free I would have asked for his fucking room card.

Korpiklaani ended up with a box of beer on the pool deck on the last day just before Sabaton played. I wonder if they were bought on the ship? IF my memory serves me right, I think they were also sneakily selling their own merch on the pool deck too that day.

Now, I'm just crossing my fingers to get one of the cheapest cabins on time before they sell out. Kinda impacient right here. I have the 70K Tons website as my home page, so I can't miss the booking at all!!
I can understand why they are taking so long (last year they had more than a year to organize this whole thing), but an announcement once a month wouldn't hurt! I don't care what they'd post, as long as they keep as informed. Something like "We are doing our best, we have lives too, ya know?" would do it. We just want to feel we are not left forgotten =S
And, ya, having a date would be nice. I have to plan my vacations for next year as well. I'm planning on going back to my country for a visit and it was scheduled to be on January. So, if Allison or Andy could come up with a specific date just to start with, I wouldn't mind!! I don't care about the bands THAT much right now. Just want to make sure I have the dates and the cabin booked.
If the bands suck, I can always step out... right?

And if so,will that be only for the same cabinn/amount of people?
