    To quote Bugs Bunny "You don't know me very well, do you". Last cruise 2017 me and my wife seen... 37 shows. Now, some bands we saw TWICE so we saw 29 bands, IIRC. For us it was literally Get up at 9am. And then shows NON STOP. Come to the cabin at around 2-3 am, pass out.. If we went to karaoke - than we would pass out even later. Heck Karaoke with Fabios (both of them singing Ave Maria) was fun. Same was for Saltatio Mortis. Super funny when white HEAVY METAL GUYS sing rap about how hard it is to be black... ROFL... Next day - Repeat. I am NOT spending 1400 + airplain tickets just to see 6 bands. Heck no. If I am spending 2k (for 2 people). I need to get my money worth in shows. Average ticket if you go to see a show in Chicago, or Milwaukee - around 40 bucks. 2 tickets - 80 bucks (for me and my wife), so we need to see so many shows as to get our money worth. Which means AT LEAST 25 shows. Everything else goes into our "Got more than we paid for" file. So it was literally - racing from show to show, with breaks for snack. Best vacation I had in a SUPER long time.

    There's no avoiding the complaints. If Andy booked Iron Maiden, there would even be someone bitching.

    Damn. If Iron Maiden was booked... Scheisse... I would be super happy. But c'mon, you can't compare Iron Maiden to... goatwhore and other bands of that level. That's like comparing Grey Goose vodka to Popov vodka (try them side by side and see what I mean). Everyone heard of Maiden. Goatwhore... didn't even hear about them until they were announced. Wish I still didn't hear about them. Sure, people will complain. But you do need a broader appeal. "Puke into microphone Metal" appeals only to a part of the metal crowd. While bands like Iron Maiden, Helloween, Axxis, Sabaton, Axel Rudy Pell, have MUCH broader base and wider appeal. I wouldn't go see Cannibal Corpse, Death Angel or Goatwhore or Gojira if you pay me.But most death metal fans I know would have NO problems listening to Sabaton or Deathstars or Helloween

    what the fuck is your beef with Goatwhore, man?! Band fucking rules, dudes are legends, and Ben is one of the best dudes in metal. Seen that dude tour with 2 broken legs after a van accident that nearly killed him. They're 100% legit, work hard as fuck, and encapsulate the spirit of metal 100%

    Correct, he was the genius that threw the "gurgling with sulfuric acid" stuff last year, that I am quoting from time to time. And it still makes me hope that Andy will book Sulphur Aeon :mrgreen:

    Yup. I am the one using the term "Gurgling with sulfuric acid" and "Puking into microphone", though I was not the one who invented them. In any case. ONE HUGE Powermetal band is on. Primal Fear. Makes it MUCH better. Two shows with Primal Fear, Two Shows with Rhapsody, Two shows with El Extremo. That's 6 shows already...

    Hey, can you tell us again what kind of music you don't like? We're really fucking interested and I don't think we understood you the first thirty times.
    I'm only here to do two things: play the bagpipes and gargle sulphuric acid. Looks like we're almost out of acid.

    Tigerclaw_x wrote:So far it has been "puke metal central". Very few non death/or growley thrash bands. Reality check: this is NOT Barge to hell tour. Reality check, this is NOT death metal festival. Keep it up and I am sitting this one out. Only TWO bands are to my liking so far: Rhapsody, Sonata Arctica and In Extremo... THREE out of 12, Karl. Thats CRAPPY average. Hope there will be actually GOOD bands


    Everyone's entitled to their own tastes and preferences, and we all know just how huge the diversity of metal is and how wide the metal family extends, but seriously, this is just the douchiest possible way you could have said this. So there's only a few bands so far that you personally like...so what? Last year out of the 60 bands onboard, 12 of them were bands that I was a solid fan of ahead of time. Two years ago, which was the first year I went, it was only 10 out of 60. Both of those are lower than the 3 out of 12 ratio you're complaining about.

    Did it impact my ability to enjoy the cruise? Hell no!
    Did I end up hearing other bands that I hadn't heard before and becoming a fan as a result? Hell yes!
    Did I complain and insinuate that the bands that other people enjoyed but didn't meet my personal tastes were somehow shitty and inferior, like you've been doing with all this "puke metal" and "vomiting in the mic" and "gargling acid" and "I hope there will actually be some GOOD bands" BS? Hell no!

    Bottom line, just chill the hell out dude. Even now, hours after your first post, they are still not even 1/3 of the way through the announcements for this year, and it's easy enough to look back at the cruise history and see that every single year, they have tried really hard to put something for everyone on board, but if you're gonna bitch and moan about not getting the lineup you want, then I don't know what you're doing here. The rest of us will be here waiting for the party to start when you get off your high horse and back in the pit.

    Haha, you're a riot, man. Glad to hear you're in better spirits now. There will be even more to come! And when they book more bands you like, I'm gonna be on here bitching 'cause our tastes are polar opposites. But all in good fun. :lol:

All the metal in the world and we have rock bands like Rhapsody, Sonata Antarctica, El Extremo, and Primal False on the boat, with their silly yodeling and keybroads and songs about unicorns and fucking castles and stupid shit like that bro. What's metal about that shit? I know the fucking hairlip grocery bagger at my neighborhood market would book in a second if we had those spots filled with REAL METAL bands like Embryonic Devourment, Anal Vomit, Excrementory Grindfuckers, and Enbilulugugal! Where is the REAL METAL BRO?! :stagger:


    You can blame it on a recent worldwide shortage of sulphuric acid.

    is it a crappy average though? 3/12 means you'll have 15/60 which means 30 sets total. Still pretty good if you're picky. Ville usually has way less sets than that to watch and he never whines about it.

    2016 was actually bad for me because there were TOO MANY bands I wanted to see (this is coming from the person that sleeps an average of literally 2 hours a night on the boat). There were about 25 total that I wanted to absolutely see and it spread me pretty thin because I like to catch both sets for the bands I truly like. I'm fine with having 10 to 15 solid MUST SEE TWICE bands - it gives me breathing room to check out new bands, do Karaoke, fine dining (anyone that hasn't been in the dining room it took me 3 cruises to finally go and it's totally worth it- and FREE) artist clinics, extras like the occasional acoustic session and catch up with friends in the hot tub. :bangers:

    I'm sure there will be plenty of bands you will like. This is going to be my fourth cruise and this year we booked our airfare before any lineup or booking info. Was released. Also had our hotel booked March 3. Haven't been too thrilled about the bands announced yet but sure it will turn out fine. Also already seeing some of the bands we have never heard of are quite good.

    They have to consider the tastes of everyone of us and it is not easy, I suppose. Every years I'm also complaining but at the end there are more bands than I like and I'm never able to see all of them :roll: I'm not at all a death/black or other 'hard' metal bands fan, but a lot of metalheads are and there are some bands for everyone. I don't know if you already did one cruise, but believe me, more bands you want to see, more difficulties you have to manage :wank:

    I remember your bitching from last year and im glad youre unhappy with the lineup. If itll keep one less jackass from booking then I say bring on the sulfuric acid gurgling vocalists. Right now its a fairly mixed group of genres this early in the announcements.

    I get the frustration, when one band after another that you don't care for gets announced. But here's the thing with the line-up, if one or two bands you love get announced, you all of a sudden start looking at the entire line up as glass half full, rather than glass half empty. Two-thirds of the line up hasn't been announced. Anything can happen. That said, I would like to see a bit more black metal on the ship this year.
