So excited

I am going to ProgPower in Atlanta, big metal fest....didn't think I'd get to go but after a discussion with my man he is letting me fly back here(I'm in Atlanta right now, work was my obstacle) so this means ...

I get to meet Marco and Zac Hietala!!!!!!!

Marco is my inspiration, he's the reason I started to play...I'm just so happy right now I can't keep it in!!!

Anybody here ever meet him or Zac? I know Zac somewhat via FB, chatted with him...actually meeting him is gonna be way cool.

Did anyone make it to the show this year? How was it? My band has a song on the sampler, but alas, we were in the studio the weekend of PP 2010.
