Its completely obvious he isnt being serious. And that is one of the most retarded things ive ever read.

Also, this fest is horrible. Fates Warning is awesome but $120 for 2 days of fairies and dragon wizards is ridiculous.

I don't know if he's serious or not (it is hilarious either way) but what I said is true! Is it not? Explain.

I do agree with your second statement though. I wouldn't pay that!

Christians aren't the only ones who believe in a god.

Also, if somebody worships Satan they aren't a Christian. Being a Christian means you follow Jesus. Not Satan, haha. It might be acknowledging the existence of Christianity, but definitely not following it.

also Orphaned Land is worth the $120 alone.

haha I know that!

yeah that is what I meant...that they ackowledge the Christian god but not follow Christianity and it's values. and I said "essentially Christians" who worship Satan. I would have said Satanism/ Satanists but then that has so many damn meanings too and it would just get all too confusing.

Normally I go, but man $134 is a lot for bands I'd "like to see" instead of "have to see".

Maybe get a 1-day pass, if you like one night's lineup more than the other?

As expected, Orphaned Land was my favorite of the night. They kicked ass, although they didn't play as much from Mabool as i would have liked to see.

Sabaton was also really good. One of the best power metal sets I've ever seen.

Circus Maximus and Pagan's Mind were good as always, but that's not really much of a surprise because they've been spot-on every other time I've seen them.

I either didn't watch/couldn't get into most of the other bands.

Very stoked on next year's lineup though: Stormwarrior!!!, TYR, Paradox, Kamelot, Tarot, Nocturnal Rites, Seventh Wonder, Oceans of Sadness. There are a few more bands but I don't really like them. But those bands right there are plenty enough for me to go. An hour Tyr set is going to be epic.

Fates Warning was my favorite. Absolutely blew me away. Orphaned Land was good. Would like to see them play some actual metal songs from El Norra Alila one day.

Pagan's Mind was ok, not really my thing, and I could never get into Brainstorm.

Excellent lineup next year, and a good mix for both nights. I couldn't believe it when Tyr was announced on the video...their new CD is much heavier than their previous outings and that should be a great set indeed.

Tickets are already on sale for both nights, too.
