Err, no ... but I did make several separate posts on the topic earlier in this thread about it  ;)

That said, having looked back over the thread, it's clear you're a big fan of Arena, Mikey: indeed I should have mentioned it to you in person.

TA another one for you  :D

ROCK ITtervoort 2012 have announced that ARENA will replace headline act Threshold at this year's festival.

We're proud to announce that ARENA will replace THRESHOLD as headliner of ROCK ITtervoort 2012.After the announcement that Threshold cancelled all their april gigs, including Rock Ittervoort, we started searching for a good replacement.We're convinced that Arena is even more than that. Arena returns after 4 years to Ittervoort for an exclusive gig in Europe.

Arena is a very populair progressive rockband, founded in 1995 by Clive Nolan (Pendragon) and Mick Pointer (ex-Marillion).Musically the band's style ranges from symphonic to hard rock. At the end of last year, they released their latest CD "The Seventh Degree of Separation".With this album they are still one of the best bands on the English scene.
