Picking and choosing
out of the first announcement makes me feel better about starting the mammoth (for me that is) effort of saving up for air and gig tix.
I think over all this sould be good, (off the top of my head) there are a number of bands who will be touring on a new album- some newer than others of course: Lamb of god, Meshuggah, Gojira are (or are rumoured to be) working on new albums, Steel panther have a new album out shortly, and devin townsend, Trivium, Machinehead, Times of Grace, Hellyeah (I think), Chimaira, Turisas, all have new or recent albums.
Other factors: Coal chamber are reuniting, as are Slipknot,
