    Well hi. I guess this is the part where I introduce myself. I see that as usual I am surrounded by men. Ah, being a metal lady. But this is my first cruise, which I'm super stoked about!

    City/country:
    Calgary, Canada

    Age:
    23

    What first got you into metal?
    So way back in junior high I had a friend that was really into My Chemical Romance (uhh), Incubus (ok better) and Marilyn Manson. I found myself really liking Manson, even better that my parents hated that I listen to it. The year after a friend sent me Nightwish's Once album, which I ate the fuck up. Finally, in high school, my best friend introduced me to Silent Civilian. I have been listening to metal and its many varieties ever since.

    Play any instruments?
    Just my voice. I like to think I'm good... if I can manage to keep up the practice I can hold pace with Anette in most songs (many lower but I can belt it out when I need to)

    Top 5 bands?
    Onto bands no one has ever heard of! (Well two)
    Sabaton
    Silent Civilian
    dEMOTIONAL
    Nightwish (Tarja, Anette, why can't we all just get along?)
    Apocalyptica

    What do you do?
    "Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer." Chemical to be exact. What exactly it is I do depends on my company's client.

    What deck are you on?
    Deck 6... room 6481. Played the lottery, we'll see how that works out.

    What's a creepy thing I can say when I see you that no stranger should know and will weird you out that I do?
    Probably just walking up to me and saying either "Golden Sun" or "Fire Emblem". Favourite game and series respectively... prepare to discuss for far too long.

    Pretty good number of broads on broad. I'd say a higher female percentage than at normal metal shows. At least in my experience.

    That's good to hear :) I'm used to it at this point but the promise of meeting more ladies is always good.

    Well, in all honesty, I guess the only ones here attending enough girlie metal shows (although it could be argued there's no such thing as enough girlie metal shows) are me, Dallas, Einar and Michael. Sorry if I forgot anyone. Feel free to chime in and lose all credibility. :lol:

    I'm going to see Delain and Xandria tonight ;) Ignore the fact that Sonata is headlining (seriously, I have problems enjoying almost everything post Unia).

    I'm extremely jealous of that. Well, at least they make you suffer through Sonata. :lol:
    Seems I have to fly to the Netherlands if I want to see Delain live anytime soon. They're on a European tour with Sabaton early next year, but my hatred for Sabaton is greater than my love for Delain. :cry:

    No, though I did recently party with the Kingslayer. That particular evening I couldn't make it out. Next thing I'm planning on going to in Cowtown is Amon Amarth.

    Hey! My name's Trapper, and I've been wanting to go on what I can only think of as BOATQUEST since it was first announced back in 2010. The money and line up finally, well, lined up this year... and I'm fucking stoked! It should be one hell of a party!

    City/country:
    Savannah, GA

    Age (optional):
    26

    What first got you into metal?
    Metallica was the first band I started listening to, then I randomly heard "Battlefield" by Blind Guardian in a fan made music video and it just kind of struck me. I've been completely hooked ever since.

    Play any instruments?
    Guitar, primarily, though I sing tenor 2 when I randomly find myself in barbershop groups, and I dabble with keys and percussion.

    Top 5 bands?
    Blind Guardian
    Dream Theater
    Ayreon
    Tyr
    This spot changes constantly, but right now, I think it would be safe to say Amorphis

    What do you do?
    IT Monkey.

    What deck are you on?
    Deck 7. 7372, played the lottery this year, as I could only get one friend to go with me and a two person room was simply more expensive than us booking separately.

    What's a creepy thing I can say when I see you that no stranger should know and will weird you out that I do?
    Make a Dark Tower AND a Dune reference in the same sentence. Should be an interesting challenge.

    Wassup everybody! 2015 Will be the first time not only do I board, but first time in my young life I trave far away for a metal show outside my state! Haha cant wait to meet many people, but seeing is my first time here goes nothing.




    City/country:
    Los Angeles California

    Age (optional):
    22

    What first got you into metal?
    2003. I was in middle school in computer class when I discovered a random video file. It turned out to be Metallica St. Anger music video. I thought it was so good at the time even though I had alredy sort of heard the likes of System of A Down , Korn, & Rage Against The Machine. I figured I stick to Metallica, discovered their discography backwards and the rest is history. I then ventured into death metal, power metal, and black metal. Now I enjoy quite a lot from all those and have since disliked Nu Metal lol.

    Play any instruments?
    Not professionally but I can play "amateurishly" drums, violin, and trumpet.

    Top 5 bands?
    Death
    Bathory
    Mercyful Fate/King Diamond
    Emperor
    Sodom



    What do you do?
    I work part time at Universal Studios Hollywood. 3 years and counting. Outside of work I dont go to school. I then spend time with my family, go to shows, and just have a good time when I can.

    What deck are you on?
    Deck 7 Cabin Number 7598

    What's a creepy thing I can say when I see you that no stranger should know and will weird you out that I do?
    I organize my music by their album release, put lyrics on itunes, and cover art, IDK? Lol

    Lol. I thought it was better at the time than Korn, SOAD, and RAGE. Looking back I dont like it much haha the album is hit or miss. & even then rarely do I go back and listen to Metallica. Lol

    Well, at least you have Bathory and Death going for you on the introduction. :beerwink:

    Oh, and in case you haven't noticed, we don't use "board" here - it's always spelled "broad".

    I guess we have Baldielocks (KevinP on the forum, though he doesn't come here anymore methinks) to thank for that . It started way back in the early days of the forum.

    Yea I find Death & Bathory almost a tie when it comes to great albums despite different genres and Bathory having more albums.

    Oh okay thanks for the heads up! :cheers:
