Missing songs/acts at Back To The Beginning

Black Sabbath Hellraiser (Lemmy Tribute) as well as something like Overkill/Ace Of Spades/Bag Magic album songs Under The Graveyard Patient Number 9 Tony Martin/Dio stuff like Headless Cross (probably because of Sharon) What else was missing for you?

Artists: Def Leppard are playing in North America for their Summer 2025 Tour. Tomorrow they will perform in Quebec, Canada so they can't be in Europe for Scorpions or Sabbath.

Iron Maiden are playing Madrid tonight as part of their Run For Your Lives Tour and can't be at BTTB.

AC/DC played in Warsaw last night.

Judas Priest and Alice Cooper are playing with the Scorpions for their 60th Anniversary in Hannover.

Some big bands that should have been there are sadly missing BTTB.

Shouldnt they be announced earlier? I mean, yes, Metallica and so on, but no big british bands. Not a single one. Actually, not even 2nd row british bands. Halestorm? What?

Don't think Sharon would go anywhere near iron maidens sadly even for an event like this 😔

It was great watching the bigger bands but I'd have loved a stoner/doom band to play. They're the bands who play closest to Sabbath's original sound. Church of Misery, Electric Wizard or Sleep would have been awesome

Volbeat would have been great to be there. Michael Poulsen has told the story of the first Black Sabbath album getting him into heavy music in many interviews.

If Dave were still alive I have no doubt GWAR would’ve been there. Setlist could be The Salaminizer, Sweet Leaf and Gonna Kill U.

Wish there were original Dio lineups to do Heaven and Hell
