Great vibe, awesome bands, and a good time!

Welcome to my centralized photo and video index page for 70,000 Tons of Metal 2025!
This was my ninth consecutive year attending the "world's largest heavy metal cruise." The weather was relatively mild but without too much rain, but it was quite windy at times up on the pool-deck.
Despite the customary and unexplainable pre-cruise delays from "Andy," the Skipper (the guy who apparently plans the festival), the onboard part took place relatively problem-free, although with some audio and lighting issues.
Here are public Facebook albums containing my photos, and a few videos here and there:
