Hibria
After Forever, Edenbridge or Delain (as another female fronted band perhaps)
H.O.D.
Brainstorm
Masterplan
Beyond Fear
Evergrey

And I suppose I have to have a couple of larger bands that I seem to post whenever doing these wishlists.

Blind Guardian
Symphony X

I'm sure I'll think of more.

The Absence
Bloodbath
Necrophagist
Insomnium
Opeth
Kalmah
Obscura
Wintersun
Disavowed

Some great suggestions there...

Would LOVE to see Edguy at a festival again so they'd definitely be in my list...

Edguy
Breed
Triosphere
Sonata Arctica
Nocturnal Rites
Poisonblack
Brother Firetribe
Memoira
PAIN
Volbeat

My big "not possible" wish is for Blind Guardian. Slightly more realistically...

Son of Science (great band, currently unsigned)
Biomechanical
Serenity
Pyramaze
Kiuas

MY WISHLIST:

Electric Wizard
Napalm Death
Jesu
Sunn O)))
Katatonia
Cathedral
Martriden
Edguy
Pig Destroyer
Megadeth
Nile
My Dying Bride
The Berzerker
Chthonic
Blaze Bayley

How about offering an opportunity to emerging bands like MYRATH (a Progressive /Oriental Metal band from Tunisia) to play in the festival? Check them out at the following link:

Even 2-3 of those bands would make me throw money at you for a ticket!

Power Quest crossed off my list, can we be expecting any more bands that are mentioned on this thread?

Festival seems to be really taking shape now!
