I'm quite sure I'll see Steven Wilson in February and then possibly Roger Waters in May. Fingers crossed for some Iron Maiden dates as well, we'll see.

On that topic,

I'm sure there will be more.

I have tickets for Nightwish in March and Kamelot/Delain in April.

I did see today that Avenged Sevonfold is touring NA with Breaking Benjamin and Bullet for my Valentine. Definitely want to go to that but so far the released dates don't include somewhere close. They did say there are more coming so hopefully they come to NYC or NJ.

Just saw that too. Never got to see them with MP and didn't have any interest after he left. With Brooks back there now, I'm absolutely interested again. I also loved The Stage so this could be a possibility.

I caught them opening for Metallica and loved their set.  Was just bummed to not get a full set so I really really want to catch that tour.

Wardruna in Zurich (Switzerland) in January, a dream come true  :metal

Nobody ever seems to book them in Italy so when they're three hours and a half away with a direct train, in a nice town also, I just have to take the opportunity.

So far I have Nightwish and Kamelot lined up for next spring, along with possibly Hammerfall in June, and maybe a couple others I haven't double checked yet. Helloween is supposed to be hitting the States too, so add that to the list. And ProgPower.
From a Mega Man Legends island jamming power metal to a Walrus listening to black metal, I like your story arc.

Yeah, Helloween is on my list too. bosk1 may want to drag me to Nightwish, and I may let him if he takes care of all the logistics (I love me some Floor Jansen). Maybe.  :lol

Sounds like my year so far, Kamelot/Delain, Nightwish, and ProgPower.  Saw Hammerfall earlier this year, they were really good but I'm not crazy into them to catch them again unless the support was also good (or the concert was very local)

Samsara, just go, it'll be fun  :lol cram, I'm not even a Hammerfall fan, but they're always on my 'maybe' list when they come through. So if I have spare time and money and feel like driving a couple hours to see 'em, I just might, because it's Hammerfall and they've been around forever.

Seems to be the growing trend. Bands skipping Seattle left and right, Dream Theater, Nightwish, Kamelot etc..  ???

Well, this is a nice surprise.  Just found out that Big Wreck will be playing in Santa Ana, CA at the Constellation Room on March 9th, 2018.  It's on a Friday as well.  Immediately got tickets to this one. Small venue though.  Only 300 people, but it's close enough from my work and home (I just need to drive only one street north for 20 minutes to get home after the show).

Gonna see Nightwish, Iced Earth and Jinjer (all different shows).

Really excited for Jinjer. They’re opening for Cradle of Flith, which means I get to leave really early.

Saxon W/Judas Priest

I like how that's listed. just saw today that they are playing in Worcester on a Friday night in March. Not that Priest is a must see, and I just saw Saxon, but I may hit this.


So far..
Michael Schenker Fest at Berklee in Boston on 3/9

and Helloween in September.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol
