If you were able to make a Music festival....

Wow, I'm not the only one who likes Axxis?

I'd like some Back to the Kingdom songs, but otherwise a good set.

EDIT: the old "festivus for the rest of us" thread and my festival post:

Iron Maiden | Judas Priest

Dio | Testament

Blind Guardian | Savatage | Iced Earth

Skyclad | Axxis | Pink Cream 69

Not in order of preference, but an order I could realistically see these bands billed. Angel Dust would have definitely been on the list, but I suppose they are not really that active anymore. At least not with Dirk Thurisch. Savatage is probably the same, but replace them with Chris Caffery if you want to nitpick.

Why do you constantly put Gamma Ray over Edguy? Edguy are clearly the bigger band, and are far more awesome.

Although you almost have enough of Avantasia at that show for a special Avantasia set. How about replacing Primal Fear with Magnum?

Suppose I'd better do one:

Turisas | Blind Guardian | Edguy

Ensiferum | Korpiklaani | Sonata Arctica | Hammerfall | Kamelot

Metallium | Kiuas | Battlelore | Firewind | Magnum | Dream Evil | Freedom Call | Wolf | Alestorm

That'd be pretty decent, I reckon. Ideally I'd have Kiuas higher up the order, but I can't really justify it over Ensiferum or Korpiklaani, especially since I just criticised Gamma Ray headlining

I love the way EWB seems to have cultivated a healthy power metal fanbase

Although I've never heard of Flotsam and Jetsam, but that might be my fault.

Are epic metal fans the only people unrepresented on the festival scene? Seriously?

Honestly, Paganfest is in a couple of days. Check it out. Not a festival admittedly, but most of you would get your rocks off at it. Bloodstock?

[Mr Evil Guy]

Architecture in Helsinki | Los Campesinos!

Foals | Andrew Jackson Jihad | Magnetic Fields

Stars | Someone Still Loves You, Boris Yeltsin | Broken Social Scene | Guillemots | Arcade Fire

Try to tell me that wouldn't be amazing. Try to. :@

[nWoHollywood]

Are those real Bands? Their names sound funny. If they are real, I don't know them.

[METALMAN]

Yeah, they're real bands. It's the best festival by far on this thread, though the order is a bit fucked up.

[nWoHollywood]

What kind of Music do they?

[Nerf]

Underground (mostly) indie.

[IAceI]

Alkaline Trio | Strung Out

Rise Against | Protest the Hero | Pennywise

Polar Bear Club | Hot Water Music | The Draft | The Falcon | Bad Astronaut | Ignite

The Cool Hidden Tent Somewhere For Pre-Show Entertainment

High Five Drive | Cumshot | No Trigger

I stole Mr. Evil Guy's layout coz it was cool >_<

It may not 'flow' too well, as I have no comprehension of who is bigger than who these days.

It's actually not. They released their first album in 1984 called Doomsday for the Deceiver and it is amazing. Unfortunatly they never got the main stream attention of the other thrash metal bands like Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer. A major reason is because their bass player left to join Metallica (i'm sure you know who I'm talking about). But they are a great band that have being going strong under the radar for over 20 years.

As for Paganfest, I want to go but I have nobody to go with, which sucks because 3 days afterwards my friends are going to see Megadeth. I've been trying to convince them to do both but they don't want to rent a hotel for that long.
