    Dimmu Borgir or Dark Tranquillity would basically make the cruise for me

    2017- Cabin 2313
    2018- Cabin 9272
    2019- Abandoned ship

    I hope it will be Dismember or Deceased.

    That would be very nice.

    Minor point, but Venom was on 2015 and not 2017 for their second 70K.
    Never take anything I say seriously.

    Gee!
    I hope it is heavy Devy!
    Doing a SYL set and then a Devy set.
    I would flip out.

    But, it's probably another repeat D band from either 2011, 2018 if the current pattern is anything to go by :?

    I would love to see Dimmu Borgir again but with ICS Vortex back in the band or some one who can pull off those amazing
    clean vocals. But who?
    Last album was all choir shit and it was massive turn off for me in all massive bouts of honesty. (imo)

    2018 Leaves Eyes
    So....this might mean a D band from 2011, 2016 or 2018 perhaps.
    I looked at the D bands in those years and nothing leaps out at me. Nothing gets me excited.
    I hope it's not another repeat.

    heya
    At this rate, how many bands will we have in 69 days?
    If we're 1 band a day, at this current rate?

    We're not even 1 band a day are we?
    This is depressing.

    Please DON'T be Decapitated or Draconian, seeing as I can't go next year. :cry:

    I'm seriously hoping that certain bands I haven't seen before, like those 2, don't get announced because I know I can't see them. So far the only band announced that I haven't seen before that I really want to see is Moonsorrow, and I'm hoping that that number stays low.

    Either one would be a great addition. Dimmu especially since they would not be a repeat.

    There are LOTS of good possibilities with "D." Devin Townsend would be awesome...and he IS touring now so he's active.

    I've been muttering for several years that the next 70k would be my last, but I think this year it's finally hit home that I need to take a breather (after all ten!) because I see such a disparity between my reaction to announcements and others' reactions. I think it's just a function of taking all that 70k has to offer. Not dumping on 70k since I'll still have a great time, but it's definitely time to diversify a bit; I know other vets are feeling that pretty hard right now too.

    I definitely wouldn't be feeling this way if we got some new blood or bands on the upswing. I feel like that happened a bit last year, but there's no trace of it for 2020. He's at the mercy of touring schedules I suppose.

    appropriate timing there...the first band I haven't seen, something new and worthy.

    C bands I'd like are CoB (repeat, but how many of us grew into harder metal with Follow the Reaper?), Chthonic, Carcass, Cradle of Filth (was surprised how solid they were live), Circus Maximus, Caligula's Horse. Would take Cellar Darling since Eluveitie can't be on, but suspect I would only stay for half.

    So Devin has always kinda been on my list to check out but I've never gotten around to it, and he kinda has a lot of albums. What would be people's choices for where to start with him?

I think it's just a function of taking all that 70k has to offer. Not dumping on 70k since I'll still have a great time, but it's definitely time to diversify a bit; I know other vets are feeling that pretty hard right now too.

      I definitely wouldn't be feeling this way if we got some new blood or bands on the upswing. I feel like that happened a bit last year, but there's no trace of it for 2020. He's at the mercy of touring schedules I suppose.
      I took my break this year, needed it. 2020 is going to be a trial to see if I feel the same about it. I feel like I mostly just party with friends and don't watch bands much anymore. Between the cruise, Fests and all the tour travel I do I've seen the bands I want to see so many times so unless its a favorite sometimes i'm just bored. Feel this way with a lot of shows in general but they are a lot cheaper than the cruise so I still show up to shows. I have fun its just the magic has worn off I guess. :cheers:

      Same. Having seen every one of my bucket list bands multiple times (except one...Sigh), I think it’s time to start diversifying my vacations.

      This 70k will be our fifth, and we’ll be taking a break after this one.
