Forgot to say that Mark Reale are going to do a Thundersteel / The Privilege of Power line up-reunion for the festival! It can't get much better, always loved Riot's three first singers. Never liked the DiMeio era that much though.

Riot with Tony Moore? Could this lead to a new album with him? I like Sons Of Society but the stuff befoe Mike was the best.

I'd love to see JOP, Riot, Imp, Owens, and many more. Somehow, Journey doesn't fit at all.

The Outlaws without Hughie Thomasson? That's like Queen without Freddie Mercury.

Oh, I've seen Jon Oliva's Pain live before. And I've seen Savatage live 4 times, and met the band twice. It's just always cool to see them again!
