Just got my tickets for this! Gonna be the best metal show I've ever seen, that's for sure. They're only for sale to certain folks for now, but will go public this Saturday.

I am definitely going. What show are you going to? I can't wait to see In Flames (probably my favorite band) and CoB.

I'm going to the Denver show, which just happens to be their first stop in the US! In Flames is the one band I need to see before I die... so after that I'll have to think of another goal in life.

I'm going to try and get a bunch of people to go to the Cleveland show, or hop down to LA to see some friends and rock out at that one.

Ah, I'm going to Louisville. Of course, it's a good 2-3 hours away from where I live...but I think it will be worth it.

prepare to be disappointed by In Flames' setlist. Megadeth's too, probably. Megadave is less and less the Megadeth of old - Glen Drover just quit the band meaning he's the 93rd guitarist to drop out of Megadeth. Bodom is always fun. i was unimpressed by Job For A Cowboy's latest, but i suppose they could be good live.

i'm much more psyched for Black Dahlia Murder at a <300 person club tomorrow night. \m/

Saw In Flames with Trivium and Zao about a year and a half ago at HoB in Orlando. Zao was terrible, Trivium was sweet, In Flames was fucking awesome.

How so?

Only 2-3 songs pre-Reroute To Remain, especially if they're not playing a headlining set

Let's hope their new CD will be good, as it's coming out just before then. Also, there are a few good songs from their newer CDs...so I hope they play those.

Regardless, I still can't wait.

Megadeth and children of bodom are awesome. In flames new albums suck balls.

Couldn't agree more. Love In Flames' old work, but this new stuff just needs to go.

I definitely like the old stuff better, but I like the new stuff enough depending on the track. The couple songs I've heard that should be on the new album sound badass.

Just so you know, it can't be the best metal show ever if Job for a Cowboy is playing. That band is absolute garbage.

Only band I'd care to see in that list would be COB.. the rest should have stopped at their peak as their current work is subpar.

There's an awesome metal show coming up.. Opeth/Dream Theater/Between the Buried and Me

BTBAM is the best progressive hardcore/metal band out there right now, Colors is easily the best prog metal album in the last 5 years or more in my opinion.

Ive seen In Flames numerous times and the last time i saw them all they played was songs from the last 3 albums, it was very disappointing. I dont like JFAC and ive seen them live. I wouldnt mind seeing COB but they have gone downhill the last few albums too but not as much as In Flames.

I try to keep an open mind about new music. Yeah, In Flames used to be fantastic, but I still see them as pretty good even with new stuff. Each of their new albums has at least 2 songs that I love listening to (Soundtrack was a bad album, though).

What couple songs have you heard that should be on the new album? I've heard "Abnegation", but that will only be on their new single CD. If there's a way for me to hear some actual songs from their new cd, let me know.

On a side note. Isnt it funny how megadeth is so much better than metallica now?

Just got back from this show (first stop on their american tour). In Flames and Bodom put on a GREAT fucking show. Megadeth had their guitars up so loud there was constant feedback and you couldn't hear the vocals. Made me wonder if they even bothered checking their levels before playing as nobody else had any problems but them.
