    I don't know what it is about Myrkur, but I just can't get into her material. It seems like something I would like but nothing hooks me and I can't figure out why.
    I should get around to updating my signature

    Everyone shit on Myrkyr so hard when she first came out I didn't bother to listen, then I listened to her newest one and was blown away, it's amazing.

    Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the forum
    Not a creature was stirring, not even Ramon.
    The rumours were sprung by the Bridge with care,
    In hopes that St Andy soon would be there.

    The sailors were nestled all snug in their beds,
    While visions of mosh pits danced in their heads.
    And mamma in her battle vest, and I in my cap,
    Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap.

    When out on the forum there arose such a clatter,
    I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
    Away to the phone I flew like a sprinter,
    Tore open the lock screen and threw up the browser.

    With a little old announcement, so lively and nifty,
    I knew in a moment it must be St Andy
    More rapid than eagles his band allusions they came,
    And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!

    "Now Borknagar! Now, Behemoth! now, Metsatoll and Myrkur!
    On, Tankard! On, Vektor! on, on Flotsam and Jetsam!
    To the pool deck! to the top of the ship!
    Now thrash away! Thrash away! Thrash away all!"

    She is a bit boring to me, but I like a lot of hard and fast music. I'm sure she is great live. I've had the same boredom with Subrosa and loved them at MDF .

    So my prediction for an announcement yeaterday fell flat on it's face. Heh, just another one for the pure, lmao.

    Same with Subrosa. I listened to them a bit before I saw them at Roadburn this year, and they blew my face off live. The band is much heavier live.

    And Psycroptic was an amazing add, I spent their entire Pyramid Lounge set standing on a couch and head-banging.

    I'm not worried about what's in this year's line-up, I just enjoy all the chit-chat and happiness and groaning every time a new announcement is made. I've had a rough week home with my family and was hoping for some Christmas cheer, damnit.

    FB reminded me today (since I posted about it a year ago) that Mors Principium Est was announced on Dec. 24th last year. A major wishlist band for me, but it looks like I won't be getting that this year. :cry: :cry:

    I would think that if there were actual issues, the cruise line would have sent some sort of notification.

    I'm actually ok with them waiting to announce (mostly because I'm perfectly fine with the lineup as it stands right now). Makes the last few weeks pretty exciting when we're getting announcements every other day.

    There were announcements last year before Christmas... however, that was with only 39 bands having been announced prior. We already have 45.

    Hell, for the 2016 cruise, we were stuck at 45 bands until about January 25. The last 15 were announced in the last 10 days before the cruise. This is nothing new.

    I was looking back at some old announcements last night. Looks like we're about due for one of those "here's a few Cripper bands" announcements.

    Newbies on the board should know that announcements usually don't wrap up fully until a day or two before we set sail. There was that one year when Wintersun was announced the night before. A couple months of silence between announcements is also pretty normal.

    Though, I do feel there's usually been some announcement around Christmas or the New Year. I'll be kind of surprised if we don't have one by Friday night, but yes, the last couple weeks before sailing is always pretty exciting.

    I was physically unable to keep up with 2016 for reasons I won't bother getting into, so fair enough. I guess I'm just "spoiled" with last year and 2015 where announcements were pretty commonplace at the end of the year.

    I'm just really looking forward to the cruise this year. More than any other year so far I need the vacation. I'm getting antsy.

    Not to be negative, but they said almost the same exact thing in the New Years post before the 2016 cruise. The 'exciting news' seemed to be the Allstar Jam 2 weeks later (which everyone already knew about) or the 15 (mostly) Cripper bands announced in the 10 days leading up to the cruise. Lol

    Not to be negative, but they said almost the same exact thing in the New Years post before the 2016 cruise. The 'exciting news' seemed to be the Allstar Jam 2 weeks later (which everyone already knew about) or the 15 (mostly) Cripper bands announced in the 10 days leading up to the cruise. Lol


    And somehow we still had an awesome time when we sailed.
    Happy New Year, Skipper and everyone else!
    I'm only here to do two things: play the bagpipes and gargle sulphuric acid. Looks like we're almost out of acid.
