Re: How many people still visit this forum?

Tbh this place is about dead , used to be my main source of info for tours gigs . Facebook has taken over that . Plus the shift away from bands I like has finished me from going to bloodstock . Heading over to Germany for rock in rautheim in May. Summer breeze August a possibility. Still here......

Re: Next announcement

After the most recent announcement, I'm hoping that there will be something I like in the next announcement, but I'm not overly hopeful based on the current line up. Looks like it will be Brutal Assault or Metal Days instead unless there is a dramatic improvement....which is a shame.

Re: Next announcement

Couple of ideas about the final headliner: - Charlie Benante from Anthrax posted that he's drumming on the Pantera reunion tour. With Anthrax already playing on the Saturday could Pantera be the headliner? I sincerely hope not. I'd rather have my a rabid gibbon playing buzzsaw than watch racist Phil

Bet your suntan is interesting.....

Re: Next announcement

Dark Tranquility are one of the few bands on the bill that I would pay to go and see this year...............which I just did this week! Non purchase of ticket is still the best option for me. Maybe next year will be better

Re: How many people still visit this forum?

Its a sad truth that forums are dying. Facebook and the like has a monopoly. This one is actually more active than most of the ones I'd visit. I agree. It's a bad thing really as the level of debate and understanding is far less on FB et al and sadly it has more of the "boneduster" type c...
