This is awesome for them. To be a part of one of the biggest metal festivals in the world is huge.

Also the concerts of the band can be described as unique without a doubt: Every concert at every tour gets its own set list. This means there will never be two shows with the same set list in one region!

I couldn't help but get the impression that the writer of that blurb had no idea who DT are, and just pieced stuff together from what he saw after a YouTube search.

Weird how they explicitly say they will play new material as well.  I mean one would assume that since they would have likely completed the album by then and maybe already have a single released, but just seems weird for a festival to be stating that.

Why's that? It seems like a selling point to me to state they will play new material, for those that may have seen them last tour.

Because they havent even gone into the studio yet.  Like I said it is assumed but I cant see how it is confirmed yet as who knows if DT run into produciton issues or anything that prevents them being ready by the summer to play new tunes.  I dont expect that and the past ahs shown that DT will play the new single during the summer tour, but just seems weird to announce it so early.

Other than the fact that DT is playing, I would not assume that ANYTHING in that release is accurate.

Well, to be fair, not having recorded new material doesn't necessarily mean they don't have new material in the works that could show up in that set, I guess.  Granted, DT isn't the kind of band that would likely be able to write songs on the road, like an average band might.

I agree the promoter doesn't know crap, but on the other hand I firmly believe that DT would not sign on to do a festival at that time, and not fully plan to have a single ready by that time to play. And if they do plan to have something ready by that time, they will.
It would be very unlike them to go out and do a show without having the new album in the can.

In short, I don't put any stock in the promoters, but knowing DT, I'd put faith in them playing a new song.

Okay, well back up a second because we are not understanding each other.  It is one thing for a promoter to get some staffer to do some quick Google/Wikipedia research and come up with some things.  It is something completely different for a promoter to know about the band's future plans that the band has not released to anyone (and probably doesn't know themselves yet).

I can virtually guarantee that if I emailed John right now and asked him if he knew what they planned to play at Wacken, the response would be "I have no idea.  We haven't thought that far ahead."

And no, I'm not going to email John and ask him that.  :biggrin:

To be fair, "What are you going to play at Wacken?" isn't the same question as "Are you planning on playing something from the upcoming album at Wacken?" The latter is much more plausible for John to have an answer to at this point in the cycle. It's not like he has to know the title of the song, what other songs are played, etc. He just has to know whether a) the band will have songs to play at that point and b) if they want to show them to the public at that point.

Yeah, I have no idea what the cakeless person in that analogy is meant to be eating. If he's got some sort of cake substitute, it should really have been worked into the narrative at some point. As it stands, the options are:

  • Hoard a cake just to stare blankly into its doughy edifice.
  • Make futile chewing motions with your mouth while starving to death.

And there is about a 99% chance that the promoter has no idea what the answer to either of those questions is, even if John might (speculating) have a vague notion this far in advance.

Instead of going oversees again, stay home and tour the regions of the south east and parts of the south west that were missed on the last tours.

I would defninitely agree that they are likely planning that, but that doesnt mean that it will happen (wayy to far out) and it doesnt give the promoter the right to promote that which is the whole reason why I said that statement was weird.

It's not new. I recall it a couple of years ago. I distinctly remember the jacket that MM is wearing. It caught my attention the first time around.

No, it's one of the promo shots for DT 12 if I remember it well. As far as how he looks nowadays, just think of Zakk Wylde.
