Support will come from Atlanta's own Eclipsed by Sanity.

In order to cover the additional costs of moving the show upstairs, tickets are now $20. Tickets go on sale April 5th via Ticket Alternative (link TBA).

Private Gold Badge/Sponsor Meet & Greet at 5:30pm.
Regular doors at 6:30pm.
Show at 7:00pm.

Metal karaoke will follow downstairs in Vinyl's starting at 10:00pm (or earlier pending finish time). There will be a $2 cover.

The decision was made to change the show this year because so many fans missed out on the Wed show last year due to the limited amount of tickets. Furthermore, this will give all fans a chance to see the band that will miss out on the U.S. tour due to geographical distance & economic considerations. Fans will also experience a full 90 minute show compared to the direct support slot on the Jon Oliva's Pain U.S. tour.

Finally, visit the Circle II Circle Myspace page to hear a new track from the upcoming disc, "Delusions of Grandeur." Additional tunes/samples will be added on a weekly basis.

Well, you can't beat that!

Going from 3 to 4 days!!!! I'm glad I'm going home for the fest this year!! Now to get the tickets for this night of fun...

Glenn,

If it's upstairs, can we again get the back room for gold badgers only like the pre-party was a few years ago? That would be kick-ass.

Also, is the show in The Loft all ages, or is it 21+ ?

Hey! Good B'day indeed. I'll be sure to buy you a drink! You deserve an "upper".

Although I was looking forward to the acoustic set, I am really looking forward to Circle II Circle performing a full set.

And congrats to Eclipsed by Sanity for getting the opportunity to open the evening.

That makes it even sweeter!

Cool... but at the same time, a little bit of a bummer. Only a little bit. Here's why: I've seen Circle II Circle twice before, and I will be seeing them again on this summer's tour. However, I've never had the chance to see a Zak Stevens live acoustic set... Zak is my absolute favorite singer, and I think he's at his best on his acoustic songs. I guess I was just super-psyched that this acoustic set would be something truly one-of-a-kind, especially remembering back to the Jon Oliva set last year.

But I guess this is the best solution for the largest number of people. It'll still be awesome. Would there be any chance that the band might do a short acoustic set as part of their overall performance, or something else to distinguish it from the other shows on the tour?

I hadn't planned to attend the acoustic set. This is a much better idea, so I'll be there.
Congratulations to EbS. You guys deserve it.
