Out of the 38 confirmed bands/artists, almost half are some of my absolute all-time favorites. Those would be:

Saxon [duh]
Loudness [duh x2]
Kix
TNT [Tony Harnell is also on board and doing a set with Michael Sweet. You KNOW he is getting onstage with TNT for a mini-reuniuon! Hell Yeah!!!!]
Helix
Dangerous Toys
Black n Blue
Y&T
Alcatrazz
Russell Dwarf [Killer Dwarfs]
Jailhouse [Ex-Rough Cutt - very very cool]
Telsa
Lita Ford

Very honorable mention - will be stellar to see them for the first time:
Rhino Bucket
Arcade
London Quireboys
Enuff Z'Nuff
XYZ

Been there done that, but still will be fun:
Queensryche
Cinderella
the chix from Vixen
Bang Tango
Stryper
Great White
Femme Fatale [Saw Lorraine a couple of years ago and she still HAS IT!!! But, will be nice to see the old stuff this time]

Have the chance to be-rate and condescend to:
Ron Keel
Keel
Nelson


Sure wish you all could be there with us!

Envious.

Got an extra VIP, if you have an extra $1400...

Let's say I had $1400 (which I do not) you and I on a boat together with alcohol........one of us would end up overboard.

Eddie Trunk is gonna be on this cruise? Eddie freakin' Trunk? REALLY??

...do all of us real metal heads a favor, Sax...if you can find a way to "accidentally" knock him overboard, please do so.

Very much. Even when I'm not unemployed, luxuries like that are beyond my grasp.

Ya only live once lil' Tejas brother. I am unemployed too, pretty much.

Yeah, but when we're both employed, you make quite a bit more than me. I'm the kind of guy who the best I can hope for is $30,000 a year and that's only after I've been at a job for several years or more (or if I worked two jobs-then I wouldn't have the time for something like this). Maybe in the distant future it will be possible, but very few of my favorite bands would probably be around or doing anything like that.

But I still haven't given up on the lottery or Publishers Clearing House. Mindless optimism never hurt anyone .

Anyway, excuse my self pity, this ain't about me. So have fun and enjoy it enough for the both of us .

I'm going to be on a boat with Uncle Saxon for 4 days.....

Yeah - It's gonna get weird. Someone's Gettin' Pregnant, I can tell ya that!!!!
