i do indeed, sadly that 3 letter word is banned on here;)

I'm told its either a standalone gig, or part of BudRising, havent talked to meh source in a while, and thats the last thing he said to be.

Sounds like a warmup date before Reading/Leeds?

AFAIK, Metallica aren't promoted by them??? I think they work with Aiken.....?

it depends on the venue, the rds is an aiken venue, however marlay park is not, so the venue would define the promoter, and if marlay was on the bill it means we cant talk about it! i would prefer the rds again tho, easier to get to, and bigger!

Well, I assuming its open, as rugby matches have been played there since September, and we have Boyzone and Bruce Springsteen to look forward to.

But I'd prefer Marlay...Metallica with the Dublin Mountains as a backdrop...nice!

Motley Crue

We may get a Leeds/Reading Irish gig again, like in 2003, when Metallica first played here. Thats something to think about.

According to this, the second part of the European tour does not include any festival appearances, so methinks they'll be doing their own headlining gig in either RDS or Marlay Park, with Down(yay) and The Sword supporting.

By the way, who are The Sword?? Never heard of 'em???

EDIT: They've just announced they're playing Marlay Park on August 20th, with Tenacious Bleedin D supporting!?

I'm in two minds about goin to that one.

Brilliant And a great support act for a change. Typical - arrange to go to Rock am Ring and they come to Dublin!! Ah well - twice in one summer is good too!!!

Wrong promoter, folks, check the stickies.

What about new songs?? Also, I want em to drop some of the regular songs in favour of songs that they rarely play - like they did in the RDS in 2006. I'm sick of hearing stuff like Creeping Death, Whiskey, NEM, Sanitarium. I'd like them to play Thingy. Also, I'd like em to play a different Lizzy song other than Whiskey - somethin like The Cowboy Song......?

Sorry guys, we cannot discuss this any more. See the stickies.
