So, Andy, I need time to sleep, eat and hang out with friends. Please start booking bands that Ville likes.

Same here! I am excited to see them!

Yes, Andy please book some girlie bands for Ville and Amon Amarth and Hypocrisy so Gnoff will be there.

Be crying my little girlie eyes out to miss out the friendship though.

With the exception of a small handful of acts each year, this was me the past couple sailings and Barge. Don't worry Gnoff, if indeed you don't make it, there will be many more sailings with lots of familiar faces for many years to come

So the next announcement Andy can make is you & Kate will be onbroad

Hah, hopefully something better than that!

I'm happy about Apocalyptica. I've seen them twice and really enjoyed it

by **Max_Rockwell** » Fri Mar 21, 2014 6:36 pm

If announcements kept coming at this pace, the whole lineup would be announced by the middle of May, and there would be nothing to bitch about for the rest of the year. What fun would that be???

There's ALWAYS something to bitch about!
For example... if we did have the entire lineup by May (or, anytime before January), then we can bitch about running orders!

and if the running order are presented we can bitch about them because there will band playing exactly at the same time as a different band you want to see.

First time I saw Apocalyptica back in 2005, it was just AWESOME. They had no vocals, and it was perfect!! But when I saw them in 2008, they had a signer, and it sucked. I'm gonna see them at Heavy Mtl this summer, and maybe on the cruise. They still have the vocals? Or they dropped it?

I don't really follow this band.

When I saw them 2011 and 2012 they had a singer but he only did 2 songs throughout the set.

Yeah, I wouldn't be too happy at all if they had a singer do an entire set.

Exactly my thoughts. Their original music before all the singing is amazing. Whoever got into their heads and told them they need a singer in every song needs to be punched.

That's where i differ from opinion.
Because they are not really my cup of tea i thought once or twice during their performance:
A voice would be Welcome here

by **biertroll** » Wed Mar 26, 2014 9:23 am

I hate this bands name but this morning I finally youtubed them and HOLY WOW, I really have to stop judging bands with names I don't like. This rocks. Thank you Andy!

And please book the bands Marlo wants I promise if you do she wont strangle you again

by **AmelieM** » Wed Mar 26, 2014 1:21 pm

They had a (horrible) guest singer do a couple of songs during their Worlds Collide and 7th Symphony tours.
Since Wagner Reloaded, they've been touring with an orchestra - no singer. I really hope they're back to the all instrumental formula!
However, I'm pretty sure they'll have some singers on board join them for songs with vocals.
I wouldn't mind AT ALL if Gojira were there and Joe would sing Bring them to Light!

by **mooyagi** » Wed Mar 26, 2014 2:16 pm

I'd definitely prefer an all-instrumental set from them. Also, they should throw something together with Therion just for us

by **Sgt. B** » Wed Mar 26, 2014 3:37 pm

I've seen Apocalyptica 4 or 5 times. I first saw them in 1999 at the Dynamo Open Air. It was all instrumental & they were mainly performing the Metallica covers. I think they played right before the real Metallica took the stage.

by **DrinkMoxie** » Wed Mar 26, 2014 5:45 pm

I wanna see them do their Faith No More cover which fucking blew me away when the 2nd album came out

by **carlynjason** » Thu Mar 27, 2014 2:30 am

oooooooooh yes therion apoc, duo would cause some serious naughtyness in the pants region

I sense a new announcement on the weekend. 300 days and all.

Nah, 300 days is... wait for it... too soon!

too soon?

by **Max_Rockwell** » Thu Mar 27, 2014 2:21 pm

I honestly don't even mind if they don't announce any more bands for a while. I'm already happy with the line up and I'm worried there will be too many bands I like that I'll go insane just trying to plan it all out.

I can't complain that much about having such a dilemma though.
