Yeah, Oulu. I'll be fulfilling my army service by then but I have to manage to get some holidays for the weekend, they will probably pay for my train tickets too if I'm lucky

There is both Gojira and Jon Oliva's Pain in this festival, whom are both in that other festival featured in February 12's news. There are some pretty cool bands in this festival, and a few that I might not care about. I would probably go to it for a few of the bands.

To all the Bullet For My Valentine whiners, their latest sounds like Children of Bodom and I don't hear anyone whine when Children Of Bodom appears.

What's wrong with having something different there?? I'm not a big fan of bullet for my valentine but parkwaydrive are pretty good IMO. It seems like their on all the big festivals this summer. I'm hoping they come to the states for the new England metal festival.

Just... no.

I find it fucked up that they're playing with basically every other band on the lineup.
