For the first time ever, South Africa will be braced with the presence of true Metal Masters. Blind Guardian, Germany’s finest, is coming to South Africa as part of their world tour. 10 of SA’s finest will be performing alongside these Metal pioneers. This will all be taking place at the Tswhane Events Centre (Pretoria Showgrounds) on the 13th October 2007. So dust off your old-school leathers and studs and come and enjoy this journey into the styles of true old-school metal and rock.
Some of the local bands who will be performing alongside Blind Guardian will be: Agro, Ancient Influence, Chromium, Contrast The Water, Deity’s Muse, L.A. Cobra, ManInSuit, New Born Fire and Sacrifist. The show will be hosted by Barney Simon from Tuks FM and Radio 2000 and GoTv.
If the fact that a band of Blind Guardian’s calibre will be gracing us with their presence isn’t enough, there will also be plenty of bars, (with big screens for the rugby fanatics), food stalls, traders selling their goods and many more. There will be giveaways throughout the day including Woodstock 9 merchandise and tickets, Blind Guardian autographed posters and many other band items.
To add to all the excitement, there is a battle of the bands hosted by Zeplins nightclub, giving one upcoming band the opportunity to start off their music career on the big Nightfall Festival stage. There is one final heat on the 3rd of October and then the finals are being held on the 6th of October at Zeplins in Pretoria.
