I have a question about one of the signing times. Most line up to whre a set ends and a signing session starts. Except Ghost Ship Octavious. They're scheduled to sign Thurs. at 7:30 while Pyramaze wont finish til 7:45. Was this a misprint and GSO will actually start signing at 7:45?

Any chance we can get a big ProgPower merch table/display up at the Nightwish/Kamelot shows? Fill the table with any extra t-shirts, Cds, DVDs, programs etc. for sale/giveaway/raffle whatever it takes to inform people coming for Nighwish/Kamelot that have never known about the fest. Have a...

Here's an idea to help promote the fest to all the Atlanta locals who come to see Nightwish that might not know about ProgPower as well as make it easy to recognize other PPUSA attendees. If you go to see Nightwish/Kamelot, instead of wearing a Nightwish, Kamelot or other band shirt, wear one of...

All my friends can tell you how excited I was to see Dream Evil this year. I've always been a fan of 70s & 80s classic hard rock and heavy metal. So much so that when the 90s came and that style of music disappeared from the airwaves it felt like I lost my best friend. Around 2001 or so a...

I went to the Accept/Sabaton shows in San Antonio and Houston. Both nights were unbelievable and the crowds were way into both bands. Since the Houston show was their last show on the tour with Accept, Sabaton decided to have a bit of fun. During Accept's "Princess of the Dawn" Sabaton came back...

A friend posted a cool Nightwish song that I never heard called "Where Were You Last Night" from an album I've never heard of called Wishsides. I googled it and found a billion places to download it but no info about it. The only info I could find is that it's a 2 CD high quality bootleg...

I think it was way cool how they hung out with the fans all weekend. I first saw Oscar and Pontus at the bar during the kick off. Oscar was even up front headbanging and singing along to Accept. The next day I saw the whole band hanging out in the Vinyl. All were very gratious about signing...

Just wanted to say thanks again to Nathan for bringing in Ross The Boss for the Mid Week Mayhem show. I became a Manowar fan with the Kings of Metal album after hearing the song "Kings of Metal" on Z-Rock (the coolest metal station ever). Not long after that I found out the guitarist who kicked...

I haven't seen this adressed anywhere (including the bands website) but is it Magnus Karlsson or Alex Beyrodt on guitar? Just curious because I've never seen Magnus live and that would greatly influence my decision to travel to Austin or Houston to see them (since they're not coming to...

I was really looking forward to seeing you guys here.

A while back there was a thread about a regular ProgPower attendee that died. His name was Ray, and he was one of the people I always looked forward to talking to every year. I can't find the thread, but is there any way you could find it and include a photo of him with something like "Here in...

Does anyone know if Allan Sorenson will be playing drums at this show? I thought I read somewhere that he (like Primal Fear's Magnus Karlsson) was taking some time off for family reasons. If so does anyone know who his replacement will be?

A friend and I were thinking about taking a detour to Mokena after ProgPower to see Edguy in Mokena Ill. Can anyone tell me ... What airport should we fly into (if there's more than one) How close is the venue to the airport and what would be the cheapest way to get there ... bus, train...

I've got an awesome 8x10 of Simone Simmons to send you for your show. Send me a privrate e-mail with your address to hitman-andy@webtv.net so I can send it to ya.

Almost 5 yrs ago I walked into a friends CD shop to find autographed mini-posters from Edguy, Blind Guardian and Gamma Ray on the wall. Having only recently been introduced to the European power metal scene, I freaked out over seeing Kai Hansen and Tobias Sammett's autographs and asked where he...

I was just wondering if anyone could post a complete setlist for Nocturnal Rites. I saw a partial one in the thread about PowerFest reviews, but not a complete one. I was wondering how many songs they did off the new album, Grand Illusion, which is awesome and if they did an old favorite, "The...

Earlier this year I was fortunate enough to interview melodic hard rock legend, Joe Lynn Turner. JLT was promoting his latest album, the excellent The Usual Suspects and an upcoming show in San Antonio. I made plans back then to see and photograph JLT (a dream come true for this Rainbow fan) at...

.... then the new headliner is a band that has never played Prog Power, never played in the U.S. and is not likely to tour the U.S. anytime soon. Does anybody have ANY ideas who that could possibly be? Who's left, that's a legitimate headliner, that hasn't done any of the above? I'm going on...

I recently got one of your suggestions to me (from the Top 10 albums of the Year thread), Redemption's The Fullness of Time. Great album! I really liked "Parker's Eyes," "Threads" and "Scarred." I'm not usually into really long songs but "Sapphire" and the title track are also exellent. Thanks...
