    well i wasnt and i dont regret it.
    personally i find lars "lets hit this snare as hard as i can" approach to drumming a little less than inspired.

    Best Night Ever Man, dunno What Your On About, did ya ever go to a metallica Concert, ?

    and Anyone have any Pics?

    Jaysus can ye not give Lars a break for once?! Leave the guy alone! Let's see you come up with some of the stuff he did. It's much easier to criticise rather than appreciate.

    Am I the only one to see the irony in that?

    I was at it and I can safely say that both Slipknot and Metallica sucked.

    I was at it, went to see metallica, enjoyed it. They played a decent set imho. Few laughs. Some people get to wound up by it all ;)

    @Santaclaws http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=169544 the concert was discussed there already.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 424 ✭✭the_obsolete


    Okay I do therecklessone...my bad! All I meant was that so many times before I've seen guys just starting out playing complaining about how easy some of Lars's stuff was to play, and I asked them to come up with better. They usually either drew a blank or cursed at me and walked off...it was just a natural reaction for me.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,983 ✭✭✭✭tuxy


    i was there realy enjoyed myself


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 46 SantaClaws


    Yeah Everyone i Talked to, said they liked it much better in the last Concert.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭Dalamar


    Was there this year, and last. Preferred last years concert as there was more (and better) bands there. Still quite a good concert though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 46 SantaClaws


    Yup, i liked it, they said they will be back soon, Does anyone know how soon, and did ye listen to the concert from the radio on 2FM?

    Christ! They actually are Bon Jovi now!

    1) They suck ass
    2) They won't get the fúck out of the country
    3) Every time they play its beside my house
    4) They both attract crowds of muppets who think they're mad
    5) Lars sucks :eek:

    :mad:

    yeah anyway! ahh no im not that fond of Metallica, but the concert was fun, it doesnt deserve this kind of bashing! When they played Whiskey, that was brill


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,983 ✭✭✭✭tuxy


    looks like mommy didnt give someone enough attention as a child which has made them a very bitter person


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,688 ✭✭✭grimloch


    all fair points i didnt go this year, went last year, because i felt they put on a lazy show, how can you come to ireland and NOT play whiskey, must they stick to their strict same-song-same-order on every show plan but i heard it was better this year sortof wished id gone

    probably be back next year though

    haha, true.

    Please people, leave Lars alone for once. What the hell is so bad about him? If it wasn't for him we might never have heard of Metallica, since after Cliff died (RIP) Lars took over the business end of things. Sure he's a cocky pr*ck, but you sometimes need that in music. Please tell me what's so wrong about him?

    Well, he's a dickhead and a crap drummer. True Metallica died with Cliff.

    Goddamn people listen to some real metal before you go licking Lars' balls :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 424 ✭✭the_obsolete


    Okay dude, are you a drummer first of all? Also I don't like licking balls, but you might since you suggested it. And how did 'true' Metallica die with Cliff? What about the other 3, are they not the 'true' Metallica? Would it be right to say that 'true' Metallica went when Mustane was kicked out? I think not.
    Finally, how do you know he's a dickhead? Have you ever met the guy? He mustn't be that bad if he's still in the band.

    On a side note Pornapster, Bon Jovi kick ass!


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,070 ✭✭✭Placebo


    back ont opic guys my bro just got the new kerrang MAG, with greenday on cover and they have 2 pages on this gig , well 2 massive pics of slipknot and metal-lica, and a little text.


  • Registered Users Posts: 973 ✭✭✭ThrAx


    It was fairly **** imo. Best fun ti be had was drinkin on the green talkin to weirdos. Slipknot were ok wud have been way better if the volume on the pa wasnt turned down for them. Metallica were ****.

    I've seen him live actually. He put on a better show than Metallica did two weeks ago too.

    Also, does anyone else find it funny that on Garage days, Kirk or someone had "Kill Bon Jovi" stuck on the headstock on his guitar and then they turn into a band that more or less resembles Bon Jovi, along with hiring Bon Jovi's producer. Fucking hypocrites.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,010 ✭✭✭littleninja


    I Went and enjoyed it, slipknot and lost prophets aren't necessarily my cup of tea, but it was a fun day out anyway (certainly beat sitting in the office staring at computer screens all night!!!) :ninja:

    LOL I love all this crap that comes out when Metallica play. This years concert was better than last years but the RDS sucks for sound. Metallica were good, Slipknot sucked and poor old Lost Prophets were just pelted with plastic water bottles and didn't make any impression at all on me.

    I went to see Metallica because I enjoy the vibe I get from seeing them. I think its the fifth time I have seen them. The first concert was the best, it was the Black Album tour back in the early nineties (I think 1991) in the Point and I couldn't hear properly for a week afterwards (now thats a concert !!!).
