Btw...I'll award a bonus point to the first person to post their picks.

I know in the past you've given us the number of bands that are returnees from past years. Any chance of that happening this year?

I haven't finished the roster so I honestly don't know. I would say that 1-2 is a safe number though.

Thanks Glenn

I have no idea what I'm doing, but here goes.

(1=opener, 6/7=headliners. I probably will never have heard of the openers anyway, so I'm going for partial credit with big-name bands on those.)

Friday:

1. Rhapsody of Fire
2. Atlantean Kodex
3. Triosphere
4. Communic
5. Falconer
6. Tarja
7. Symphony X

Saturday:

1. Masterplan
2. Kingcrow
3. Alcest
4. Dark Moor
5. Devin Townsend
6. Savatage

Rhapsody of Fire and Masterplan as opening bands???? Rhapsody of fire is a headliner and Masterplan is at minimum a #4, possibly a #5 band.

He's basically cheating putting possible headliners in an opening slot.

I'm just bitter that he beat me by 4 minutes.

Even if Glenn sold his house and lived under a bridge, I still think he wouldn't have enough money to put that lineup together.

Why not add Avantasia and Aryeon as well?


I'm going to have to give this some serious thought and not just put my "wish list" together!

I don't know if it's a mistake or if I'm just not understanding it right, but shouldn't it be 1 pt for the right band and 2 pts for the right night? Not the other way around. If you didn't get the band right, how could you get the right night?

You could pick say Pagan's Mind to play on Friday and only get two points because they were part of Saturday's roster. If you had picked them to play on Saturday then you would get 3 points.

But 3 pts is more than just the correct night. Its the correct slot. I think it should be 1 for the band, 2 for the right night, and 3 for the correct slot. Glenn has 1 and 2 opposite of what I would expect.

 

[mattbrood]

I know this is mostly what I would personally like to see, but I tried to keep it to bands that have recent product, two repeats that got a lot of votes in the Facebook "pick next years roster" posting (Seventh Wonder and Pagan's Mind) and bands that Glenn has mentioned liking in the past. Okay, here goes nuthin!

Friday night
1. Enbound
2. Eumeria
3. ReVamp
4. Sons of Seasons
5. Kiske/Somerville
6. Symfonia
7. Pretty Maids

Saturday
1. Lost in Thought
2. Malison Rogue
3. Amaranthe
4. Seventh Wonder
5. Power Quest
6. Pagan's Mind

 

[jem777az]

I believe that you can have a maximum of six points for each band. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

1- Correct night
2- Correct band
3- Correct slot

1+2+3=6

Ok gotcha. That makes sense. I thought you got either 1,2 or 3 pts per band. For a possible 3 not 6.
