I hope someone involved with the fest has contact info for TWISTED TOWER DIRE. That would own!

Is this fest going to be strictly power metal?

I mean, I wouldn't consider Manilla Road "power metal" though I guess some might.

they still need a stronger headliner or they will have the same crowd size as the Alehorn fest.

I have to semi-agree with you. I was hoping for a different band to headline to be honest. But I am still going to go and I am still going to promote the ba-jesus out of this show because I am sick of tours and shows not coming here. This is KC's turn to possibly show that we have a metal audience here, the promotion here just blows.

I think that it is kinda similar to Powerfest, but staying closer to the Power Metal side of things.

Well, being the first year of a festival, I suspect they aren't expecting numbers in the thousands.

I am happy though that there is a fest in the US to give attention to traditional metal bands.

I would assume anyone involved in the fest has contacted Jag Panzer.

Let's make this fest KEEP IT TRUE USA!

How is this like Powerfest?
The bands that are confirmed so far are nothing like the bands playing Powerfest this year.
