Might get myself along to the Liverpool show. Don't get too many metal shows around here as they're usually in Manchester.

Saw him in Manchester last night. Phenomenal show - still one of the best live acts around. A new stage set has been designed and there's been a bit of a shake up in the song selections since he last played too.

New record out in November. Not sure when they last played the UK, but would be nice to see a Bloodstock appearance if they don't come over for their album tour.

Kreator's tour dates with Lamb of God are being touted as their only European shows of 2020. Then again, I'm pretty sure Cradle of Filth and Hypocrisy were promoted as UK exclusives at BOA this year, and yet they're playing other dates in October/November respectively.

Mar. 03 - UK Bristol, O2 Academy
Mar. 04 - IE Dublin, National Stadium
Mar. 06 - UK London, Forum
Mar. 07 - UK Manchester, Academy
Mar. 08 - UK Glasgow, Barrowland

Maybe a good Sophie stage headliner? I know Avantasia are busy this year, but their current tour dates finish in May, and Tobi has never been averse to dipping into whichever project is on the backburner for a few dates when the other is the main focus. Plus, he's so enamoured with England I'm sure ...

I think Peter only acted as a session member for the album. Although Horgh does still drum for Hypocrisy I believe, so that'd be a good chunk of the band there if Peter did play with them.

Hypocrisy

Vicky just posted a pick of the backstage area of Wembley for ffdp on instagram. Previously she has done the same for gojira , priest, megadeath, fozzy and I'm sure many more. Hopefully this is a unrelated coincidence lol. Guess that's a 2019 headliner confirmed, hope I'm wrong though. In Flames al...

Dave... Draiman? Would Disturbed be within the budget?

Fantastic band. Would love to see them play.

Pretty sure they get requested every year (in vain).

Definite yes from me.

I really hope they get booked. Ace band.

Hypocrisy are on ice at the moment, but like you, I live in hope.
