My first ProgPower experience was way back at ProgPower II after finding out that Evergrey and Nightingale would be playing only a mere 4 hours or so away from me. I knew many of the other bands, but getting to see those two was going to blow my 18 year old mind. I remember the rumour going...

The service at the Residence has gone downhill quite a lot over the years. Despite this, it still is the best one in the area. I wasn't able to get booked last year for it so I was determined this year. I tried as soon as the dates were announced but they told us it was too early. They told...

All that fucking AC/DC.

NAAAAAIIIIILED IIIIIIT.....

I very rarely give any recommendation on these boards about bands, but I just came across this through a friend yesterday and I was floored. I haven't heard such a solid debut in a long time. I know melo death has seen it's better days and it's been a long time since I've enjoyed the style...

Don't worry, this isn't a knock against the fest at all! So ProgPower is coming up, this will be my 11th one. I know the festival extremely well. I know who's who and what to expect every year. It's not bad or anything, I really enjoy that because there is really a sense of community. I...

I'm going to start a thread for adding everyones username if you want to have yours added. The nice thing about Spotify is it's simple to share playlists/songs with people with a few mouse clicks. If you want to add someone to your friend list, you just type spotify:user:username_here and...

I've posted this on a few other places, so if you've already seen this message, help spread the word! For those unaware, Orphaned Land's merch guy stole all of their money at the Florida show. I'm not sure how much money it was, but I would say it was quite a bit. They said this at the show...

I've posted this on a few other places, but seeing as this might get a lot of attention here, I'm hoping this will help them out. For those unaware, Orphaned Land's merch guy stole all of their money at the Florida show. I'm not sure how much money it was, but I would say it was quite a bit...

For those who may not have read the post about the Raleigh show. The OL guys had all of their money stolen form them by their road manager at the Florida show. I gave them everything I had in my wallet, but I know that the $80 or so won't be enough. I'm hoping that by spreading the word that...

I thought I would do a compilation style post to keep track of all of the different "Better Know A Band" threads that myself and others have written up. Since there are quite a few bands, and we don't want to take up so many sticky topics. However, I also don't want to see the threads fade...

Dream Evil: Wiki Entry: Producer Fredrik Nordström had the ambition of creating a power metal band of his own for a long time, but had difficulty finding anyone with musical ideals similar to his own. However, while on holiday in the Greek islands during the year of 1999, Nordström met the...

I wanted to double check for my own assurances on the camera policy. I know Glenn announced that DSLR's will be allowed during the main fest, but I have not seen anything regarding DSLR's during the Wed. or Thurs. night shows. I would assume that the same policy applies to those two nights...

I have never before made a "X for ProgPower Y" post, however I feel that this band should play the show. I know there was a topic already from Glenn regarding Barren Earth, but that was back in March and their full-length has been released since that point. I also had the chance to see them...

Kind of surprised that on a "prog" board, this has not even came up (not that I have seen). Anyhow, Richard Wright has passed away at the age of 65. http://www.reuters.com/article/entertainmentNews/idUSLF23668220080915 J
