I agree that this was a truly impressive and enjoyable line-up. Progger, Lost World Band, Echoes of Giants, and Five of the Eyes were the biggest “pleasant surprises” for me. I had high expectations for District 97, Karmakanic, Discipline, Aisles, Alphonso Johnson, Cast, Mike Keneally, Thank You Scientist, and Martin Barre, and they all delivered! Schooltree suffered from a bad mix and some early jitters, but their set was still enjoyable, and I wound up buying the new double disc rock opera, Heterotopia. There really wasn’t a disappointing band in the entire line-up! Progtoberfest III was the best one yet, so I’m really looking forward to next year’s incarnation!
