“The only ‘monster’ performer at this three day music experience is me, and maybe……no, it’s just me” – Yngwie Malmsteen
LOL!!!
Some fun bands here. Personally, I would move the lineups around a bit, and sorry, cut Yngwie, not a good fit for this festival. Crazy Lixx and Eclipse will really surprise folks, and in a good way, Kotzen is incredibly talented, and Pat Travers, old school legend.
