"These go to eleven..."

[Rider of Theli]

Long weekend is right! wow, I may have to invest in a hotel room for next year.

 

[Harvester]

An hour earlier.

Wussies.

 

[Mosquito]

Camel Packs are so needed

 

[mëtålspëd]

Bring it on! The more metal, the merrier.

Interesting announcement. I wonder why, after all the talk of "talent thinning" or whatever you want to deem it you'd decide to go to 12 bands. I'm not complaining, so to speak, I was just under the impression that there were slim pickings for bands that really fit the PP formula, unless that formula has changed. Devils Advocate aside, I like it. 12 bands. More chance to see Elvenking take the stage

Getting WAY ahead of ourselves, does this figure to be the new norm? or just a one off?

 

[J-Man]

Damn I will HAVE to bring my wheelchair next year, and also a pair of orthopedic shoes. I must also take my geritol earlier in the day, for you youngsters GERITOL was the first enery drink made for us yoda age group people.

 

[BlindPanzer]

I just hope I can afford it next year. Glenn already said he was going to adjust prices due to rising costs which will increase a lot by the addition of the two new bands.

 

[metalprof]

Same schedule for both days as Friday this year.

With the All Star Rodeo scheduled for Sunday in the Georgia Dome.

 

[DAVETHEMETALGUY]

There are tons of bands worthy of the festival. The only "thinning" I have spoke of is for the pure headliners. Repeats are going to be inevitable until someone steps up.

As for the "norm," dunno.

$5 increase.

It won't be the higher ticket price that makes or breaks it for those that want to attend.

 

[Diamond45]

Both.

Sweet!!!

 

[BlackRoseMetalHeart]

Damn! Two more bands for only an extra five bucks! That's one hell of a deal!

I was thinking the same thing. $5 increase is nothing considering the plane tickets and hotel rooms.

Yet again, Glenn pulls out all the stops! (p.s. Anyone get the reference?)

Seriously - this festival gets better and better. I just hope that the close hotel rooms won't all be booked within hours of the announced dates. I just wish the MARTA stayed open later at night.

 

[TheLongshot]

This is an interesting decision, particularly since NEARFest has gone the other direction. (from 10 bands, to 8 bands and 2 "solo spotlights", now to 8 bands for next year)
