Alejandro Melgar: 70000 Tons of Metal is a little bit much to ask?

Of course they could have been booked since, but I’m gonna call a “It’s dead, Jim” on this hope.Next show - April 2019 - Houston TX
Alright, here comes the red ink in my signature.our first show of 2019 is on 4/20? hell yeah
Jeez. With all due respect, the were awful. There are hundreds of brilliant, amazing Prog Metal acts out there, why repeat a mediocre one?
At this point it seems like the fucking rest of them.What bands can be ruled out for 2019?
makes me think that EPICA was already booked for 2020 last year.Epica - Mark Jansen says not this edition
