I'm on board of 70,000 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. Hosted, Produced and Edited on board by Percy von Lipinski Special thanks to Andy Piller Wolfgang Rott Allison Painchaud www.70000tons.com Nightwish and Alestorm both appear by exclusive permission to CNN
