Roll Call on future Pearl Room Concerts

This way all of you locals can come up with plans and have some fun.

I for 1 might go to Chicago again to see Helloween and Gamma Ray.

Though there is also Iron Maiden in Ohio........money is probably gonna make me choose.

Even with the possible tech issues, Helloween would be a better show. so right now im leaning towards Helloween.
Though I have absolutly no friends my age that know who in the hell helloween are.
Iron Maiden on the otherhand.

Me too!

Maybe Nightwish on the 31st, we'll see.

I'll be seeing Helloween / Gamma Ray and also Amorphis in Atlanta, so I won't need to see them here.

I'll be at the Candlemass show.

I'll surely go see Amorphis in the fall.

Outside of those two shows I don't have anything else planned for the Pearl Room.

Nightwish - May 31
Kamelot - Oct 18

Possibly:
08.30.08 Fintroll ... (missed these guys the last time around.)
09.21.08 Sigh (saw these guys open for Celtic Frost...not bad.)

Non Pearl Room shows:
-ProgPower all four days to see CIIC, Helloween/Gamma Ray, etc etc.
-Priest, Motorhead, Testament and Heaven and Hell
-Iron Maiden

I'm trying to decide between Alehorn and KC Power Metal Fest.....tough call, but one would obviously be much cheaper, so I'll probably go that route.

I'll be at Alehorn too (albeit non-Pearl Room) if pate drags me along. Weekend shows are always the best for me getting there.
