Since the last power metal band, 19 announcements ago, we've had:
Death, Melodeath, Black, Grind, Death, Symphonic(!!), Death, Doom, Thrash, Thrash, Tech-Death, Melodeath, Thrash, Trad, Trad, Thrash, Melodeath, Thrash, Extreme.
And:
USA, Israel, The Netherlands, USA, USA, Austria, USA, USA, USA, USA, USA, USA, USA, USA, USA, USA, Canada, USA, USA
Nothing against the USA bands but where is the variety?
Bands from ALL OVER THE WORLD fall over themselves wanting to play 70k for the exposure. Instead we get a situation where US bands have clearly been contacted in the last few weeks to play.
Will we get an apology from the skipper? "it won't happen again"? "Things will be better next time"?
All well and good but it won't help the internationals that have paid thousands of dollars to get here this time around.
