70000TONS OF METAL, the World’s Biggest Floating Heavy Metal Festival will now take off on a world tour to pick up more bands for their line-up. Before leaving port they thought they would need some more Finnish Trolls, so they welcome FINNTROLL to the line-up. That makes it 9 out of 40 and counting. Now they will set sail in the Baltic Sea on their way to pick up the next band. Where may their next port call be…? You shall know soon! Stay tuned!
So far the confirmed 9 out of 40 bands are:
Amon Amarth
Epica
Finntroll
Sodom
Sonata Arctica
Stratovarius
Trouble
Uli Jon Roth
Witchburner
70000TONS OF METAL will sail Monday, January 24, 2011 aboard the Royal Caribbean “Majesty of the Seas” from Miami FL to Cozumel, Mexico and will not return to the real world for four days until Friday, January 28, 2011.
Make no mistake, 70000TONS OF METAL is not your Grandma’s cruise. It’s also not one of the cruises that share the ship with normal cruise guests. This is 100% Heavy Fucking Metal! Can you imagine that? A whole luxury cruise ship full of metalheads? Since there is no backstage area you will have the opportunity to mingle side-by-side with the artists in this incredibly fan-friendly scenario that has no comparison. It’s like everyone has a backstage pass.
Ticket prices start at US$666 plus US$249 taxes and fees per person. This includes all on-board entertainment, all meals, non-alcoholic and non-carbonated drinks at the on-board restaurants and 24 room service!
What are you waiting for? You might even need a vacation from this vacation when all is said and done! Check out http://www.70000tons.com/
