I thought it was out of the question as there are many bands that would like to be onbroad :) Of course I would be thrilled if they announced Ensiferum, Finntroll, Korpiklaani, Amon Amarth, Testament and Dark Tranquillity
I'm not expecting a lot, just a couple. Many of the first cruise bands really want to play it again. I figure it would be easy to get them booked and Andy may even be able to give a couple of them a "lowball" offer to come back because they liked it so much. Could save some budget for headliner types. I wonder, with two cruises coming up to plan for, if UMC would be able to come to an agreement with 80+ new bands for those two events.
Yeah you raise some valid points.
I would have thought "wow finding ANOTHER 40 metal bands that enough people know about? impossible". That would have been before collating the following list though.
There are 500(!!) unique bands in the full list I've compiled of everyones' wishlists from this thread. 500! 315 with one vote, 88 with two, 39 with three, 18 with four, and the following 40 (yay we have a full boat LOL!) are all non-repeats (with a couple of repeat individuals - ie Jon Schaffer & Hansi, Fabio Leone):
13 - Helloween, Immortal, Kreator
12 - King Diamond/Merciful Fate
11 - Accept, Hypocrisy, Running Wild
09 - Arkona
08 - Opeth, Symphony X, Turisas, Powerwolf
07 - Arch Enemy, Enslaved, Heathen, Kalmah, Within Temptation
06 - Bolt Thrower, Crimson Glory, Devin Townsend/SYL, Madder Mortem, UneXpect, Heidevolk
05 - Agalloch, Anthrax, Anvil, Artillery, At The Gates, Demons & Wizards, Dethklok, Equillibrium, Falconer, Insomnium, Paradise Lost, Pentagram, Rhapsody of Fire, Rotting Christ, Satyricon, Septic Flesh, W.A.S.P.
