I'd presume comedy shows count as non-metal? We've got tickets to see Lewis Black sometime in early March, and Patton Oswalt sometime in May. So stoked to see Patton! ---and I'm just about to order tickets for Jimmy Carr; unfortunately, I can't go to Dylan Morran three weeks later... Not with that ...

For this year and last year, the only 'issue' I made a comment about was regarding the booking tiers, or rather the seeming lack thereof at this point. I know I'm not the only one that feels this way, but it's frustrating not being able to get the room one requested, let alone the deck, because some...

I'm also going with a birthday announcment - June 25.
Though I feel that's being optimistic.

Damn, I was gonna go with this one too. Cheers to a fellow June 25th birthday I'll buy you a beer if this ends up being the case.

I'll drink to that!

Keep them traditions alive! Do it!

We get through it by drinking, playing games, and listening to metal! :bangers: Yeah but eventually you gotta go outside to get like more beer and shit. :mrgreen: True... makes me think, since we've got tons of space in our house, maybe we should stock up so we have to venture out less! :lol: Side ...

I don't know how or why you guys live in that shit. I spent 26 years in Michigan and got the f*ck out.

T-minus 50 days before mooyagi starts bitching about the heat.

We've basically instantly booked ever since 2012, gambling that the lineup for the next voyage would be good. So far, it hasn't disappointed, though some lineups have been better than others. That said, The bands that truly got me giddy were... 2011 - When we first learned about the cruise, so many ...

Just a few more interesting stats, around the 62 individuals that have submitted wishlists so far :) Year Registered on the Forum: 7 from 2010 (the oldest being me! YAY!, registered on 19th March 2010) 2017 the most popular, with 11 wishlists from people that first registered in that year. Number o...

More votes for Saturnus! Get there!!!

I'm also going with a birthday announcment - June 25.
Though I feel that's being optimistic.

I managed to update my wishlist in my signature for the first time in a while.

That said, I vote for Saturnus 1 million times. That's how this works, right?

Been way too long since I've been on here! Probably not likely to be a regular occurrence with work going as it's been. Figured I should at least post my wishlist! Included are bands that may or may not be active, as we've seen reunions before. Absu Agathodaimon Ahab Arcturus Avantasia Ataraxie Bal-...

As others have said, its a social media platform. What you as a user gets out of it includes connecting with other people that like the same music you do, learning about new music as it recommends stuff based on what you listen to (eg "because you listen Magnum, you might like Thunder") e...

Adding another band to my wishlist: Persuader They're essentially poor man's Blind Guardian. m I love Persuader. I don't know about "poor man's" they're heavier and more aggressive. LIke if Blind Guardian kept doing the thrashy stuff off Follow The Blind in their modern era. I'd lose my s...

Might be seeing Goatwhore this Friday...

This weekend I received: Monolithe - Epsilon Aurigae In The Woods... - Heart Of The Woods October Falls - Kaarna October Falls - The Plague Of A Coming Age (Vinyl, but came with digital download code, and the vinyl was fairly cheap, $10 or so!) I have a few open orders at the moment, which include ...

Filled in the survey as well. My biggest concern was that all the meet & greets (from what I remember at least) were all crammed into Day 2 instead of spread out over the four days. Day 2 was my busiest concert day, 13, and had no time for any of the meet & greets that I wanted to go to. I ...

Nice. I was looking for these earlier myself, looks like I'm missing 2011 and 2012.

Agreed.

Time to get through Monolithe's discography during work, all except for the latest release.
Waiting anxiously for that to arrive in the mail...

I'm not enthused by that overall lineup, though I'd love to see Monolithe. Pretty neat to see they're headlining a stage.

Gonna have to keep an eye on next year's lineups, maybe then my lady and I can finally start hitting some Euro-fests.

Tons of listening to catch up on. Primal Fear, Holy Grail, Striker, Textures, Serenity, Rotting Christ, Rhapsody Of Fire, Rage, Obscura, Fleshgod Apocalypse, Divinity. Oh god. First world metal problems! I've actually got a ton of catching up to do myself, from last year even. Avantasia, Fleshgod A...

Was this guy actually on the same boat as us? Pretty odd view of what "metal" is.

To each their own, I guess.

Nice list, but it needs more funeral doom

Trust me, I was being polite with listing as little funeral doom as I did!

Between the pool deck and all the stages running on time, security being nice, the buffet being open til 4am, the incredible lineup and all the first timers bringing back the magic of the first cruise for me; this was my favourite cruise yet. Saw 55 sets, slept around 9-10 hours and only managed to...

I suck at mini golf. Yeah, I think Sarah kinda schooled us all there... was still fun tho eh? 70k 2016 was one of my more enjoyable voyages as well.

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
















too soon?

can anyone explain the ranking system and the point this thread? the 0-2 scale is how many sets one plans on seeing the 0-10 scale is one's overall enjoyment of the band, and/or perhaps how excited one is to have that band onbroad. Some folks use both scales, others one scale. On that note... Annih...

No announcements in OVER two days??? THE GREAT ANNOUNCEMENT DROUGHT HAS BEGUN!!! 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 somethin...

My first go around with those guys.

I like it. May be a 2-setter after all.

I'm not loosing sleep about not going yet in regards to the bands that are booked, so if this keeps up I'll be fine musically not going.
