January 27, 2012, 12 years ago
70000 Tons Of Metal set sail Monday, January 23rd, aboard the Royal Caribbean Majesty Of The Seas from Miami FL to George Town, Cayman Islands and will return to the real world today Friday, January 27th.
CNN's Percy von Lipinski reports: "I'm on board of 70000 tons of metal, Heavy Metal that is. Heavy metal is actually part of a very wide range of music that can utilize much more than typically loud guitars and drums. I saw everything from bagpipes to harps. This concert though took place on a cruise ship and without having to worry about disturbing the neighbours you can rest assured ear plugs were in high demand."
Check out a video report, including footage of NIGHTWISH and ALESTORM, below:
Says Nightwish: "We're back in Miami and heading back home later on today. We had fantastic four days on the 70000 Tons of Metal cruise. If you haven't been there yet start saving for the next year! It's worth every penny!!!"
