As of last week, the running order is out, and it is so incredible that I may need to hit up one of my fitness-freak coworkers for stimulants to stay rolling through it. This is what I'm looking at:
Thursday:
16:30 Gutbucket
17:15 Blitzkrieg
18:15 Rose Tattoo
19:45 SODOM
22:00 Saxon
Friday:
11:00 Suidakra
12:00 Amorphis
12:55 Communic
13:50 Therion
15:00 POSSESSED
16:15 Grave Digger
17:30 Turbonegro
18:45 J.B.O.
20:00 Enslaved
21:15 Blind Guardian
23:00 Dimmu Borgir
23:30 Sahg
00:30 Iced Earth
02:00 Kampfar
Saturday:
12:00 Disillusion
12:50 SACRED REICH
13:55 Heaven Shall Burn
14:45 Stratovarius
16:10 Dimension Zero
17:25 The Vision Bleak
18:45 Destruction
20:15 TYPE O NEGATIVE
21:45 IMMORTAL
23:15 In Flames
00:55 Chthonic
02:00 Vital Remains
Unfortunately, I miss Tyr and All That Remains for Sodom, Electric Eel Shock for Saxon, Belphegor to see Blind Guardian, 1349 for Iced Earth (good thing I saw them in NH then), Municipal Waste for Type O and Immortal, Moonsorrow for Immortal, Cannibal Corpse and Haggard to see Chthonic (probably the only real dilemma in the mix, but they come all the way from friggin China), and Subway to Sally to support the local scene in foreign lands (VR at the very end). However, the only time when there's no band I have interest in is Strato, and that's pretty damn incredible for a three-day festival. The cost of attendance is steep, but you can't look at that list of bands (and the alternatives mentioned above) and not immediately think it's worth it.
