I'm down south Taking Care Of Business and I found out the Murphys are playing here in a couple of weeks.
I got my ticket yesterday.
Should be cool, never seen them live before.

right on. Do you get to attend a lot of shows when you are out of the country?

Yeah, some.
Luck of the draw of course, depending on who's coming to the town I'm in at the time.

lucky bastard

Contrary to what I said in another thread, I'm going to another show here the night after D.M.

Metallica.


I know, I know, I said I wouldn't go see them but it is much cheaper here and the venue is a short walk from where I'm staying and they still had tickets left so I decided to go.

Just hope they play a bunch of older songs.

Shame on you Maddog! By law, you must now turn in your metalhead membership card.

If I could see Metallica for cheap and could walk to the venue, I too would attend the show. Whatever is generally felt about them and the (downward and plain shitty) direction their music has digressed to, they are still a powerhouse metal act and always provide a quality performance. I have heard that they plan to do more old skool stuff for this tour, that would be best but then who knows for sure.

Metallica should be a good show despite the shitty music over the last 18 years. their old tunes still kick a lot of ass : TRAPPED UNDER ICE
Have a fun one Maddog

Nah, he doesn't have to do that until we catch him at a Judas Priest show

Hey hey there, watch it with the JP comments... I take exception to these... argh

Yeah, no shit.

btw it was only $US57.50 down here for $elloutica, all fees included.
I'm pretty sure it was a lot more in Van.

Well, saw Metallica last night, so I got a preview of the show you're going to see in Van.
It was all right. They are a pretty good rock and roll band now. Only played a few songs from their first 4 albums but that is pretty much what I expected.
One funny thing was it was Kirk's birthday and during the last song (Seek and Destroy) the roadies covered him shaving cream pies and silly string and etc. and then everybody sang him Happy Birthday.


Dropkick Murphys kicked ass the night before! Had a great time. Good fucking party band.

cool

Requiring someone to turn in their metalhead membership card for going to see the Metal God himself?

Long story... don't get us started! Go back to the old board to read the great debate!
