Nothing much for me really so far but I'm pretty sure Andy will give a special candy that I will enjoy immensely like on previous cruises:

2011 - Agent Steel, Circle II Circle, Forbidden, Sanctuary
2012 - Exciter, Riot, Vicious Rumors, Whiplash
2013 - Flotsam & Jetsam, Hellstar, Metal Church (although I didn't attend this cruise

)

I vote for 2011! Damn!

My problem with repeats isn't only that they aren't bands I want - I'd have a problem with even good repeats. Metal Archives lists 50,788 active metal bands, so there really isn't any need to fill half the lineup with repeat acts. And sure, not everyone has been on all previous cruises, but I'd say something like half of the cruisers have been on at least two previous cruises (70k or Barge).

This is what I have a problem with. Cool, giving some unknown or up and coming bands a chance to play the cruise. And what do you announce? A repeat.
I'm fairly sure the next announcement will begin by saying how customer requests are taken seriously and how only the most requested bands will get a chance to repeat - and announce Blackguard.

I don't have any problems with repeats. I'm very happy with Overkill and Cripper and I would love to have Obituary and Cannibal Corpse on board again.

Sometimes I visit two gigs of one tour because I love the bands and I have fun on the shows. I don't just visit concerts to fill my checklist of bands I have already seen.

But btw I was to a DEATH to all show in Hamburg on Monday. Believe me that would be a great announcement!

by **epartos** » Thu Nov 14, 2013 7:03 am

Yeah! Death to all would fit in bloody perfectly!

Are you kidding? The cruise is almost sold out. He knows his business.

T'was a jab at a lack of announcements after The Haunted, which changed shortly after my post (maybe I should've been posting more from the beginning). It's obvious Andy knows what he is doing with the show though, it's a good festival and the best looking cruise one for sure.

Fuck ya.

Feeling better already

Well, to be fair, lots of people were asking specifically for Cripper.

Yeah the first time they played it was "give up and coming bands a chance". This time it was "wow hundreds of people really want this band back". We'll get some other new ones too don't worry

And you (Ville) won't like them anyway.

Cripper announcement made my day today! Really stocked to see these guys (and the gal) again!

I'm not gonna comment on some

that goes on after each announcement,
my advice to you peeps to just chill, have a few

and wait for your turn.
I'm sure there is a weenie band there somewhere... if anyone is capable finding it that would be Andy aaaand.... Soo..... (Nope, didn't say it

)

by **mgrock** » Thu Nov 14, 2013 1:41 pm

Cripper is great. Now Andy go for the big names and I will be very very very happy.

by **Stained Class** » Thu Nov 14, 2013 3:45 pm

FYI everyone, if Uli Jon Roth gets announced and one person complains, I'm going to cut them. I don't care how many bands we already have from the 2011 lineup. You've been warned

by **STACH100** » Thu Nov 14, 2013 6:19 pm

I did not see Cripper on the first cruise. Why? Because there were so many great bands onbroad I was running from stage to stage and just could not see them all!
Oh for that problem again.
I will see Cripper this time.

I laughed pretty hard at that. He is trying to steal Kate's job!!!

Dark, cold, evil, black... and all that while sailing in the sunny, warm Caribbean? That's what you get with SATYRICON onbroad 70000TONS OF METAL, The World's Biggest Heavy Metal Cruise!

by **mooyagi** » Fri Nov 15, 2013 6:32 pm

That's a highly requested band I think. Not for me but will check them out still. If they play some stuff off of nemesis divina I'll be mighty happy.

by **TOM CRUISE** » Fri Nov 15, 2013 6:37 pm

Thank you thank you ~~

Please contact Ted aka Nocturno Culto of Darkthrone and see if he wants to repeat that EPIC special set at Wacken 2004. He was backed by Satyricon and they played Darkthrone songs (after Satyricon's set) What a night that was.

by **Metaladdict187** » Fri Nov 15, 2013 6:39 pm

Oooooooooooh im likin this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by **Sgt. B** » Fri Nov 15, 2013 6:40 pm

by **alex_canada** » Fri Nov 15, 2013 6:42 pm

Not my taste at all. Won't bitch though. Just hoping for some good weenie metal soon.

by **gietz** » Fri Nov 15, 2013 6:42 pm
