    Great gig, delighted that they played Megaladon. I'm a new found fan of rockabilly too!!

    Yep.

    Good gig last night in vicar street, Brent is a bloody machine! Some serious 12-string shredding.

    ****ing class. I wonder who those mysterious fez-clad gents really were...

    I loved the bit where Brent whistled in absence of the sped up high-pitched vocals. Pure deadly.

    I'm pretty sure that's whistling in Bladecatchers anyway. Very difficult to get a whistle pitch with standard vocalisation.

    The sound was crystal-clear for this gig. Considering Bill wasn't in attendance, they are one of the most talented bands in operation nowadays. Looking forward to seeing them again!

    Was so bloody good. Delighted I went to see them now.

    Fiend Without A face were hilarious. "I'd like to thank you in advance for the applause you're about to give this song!"

    His best line was "now that we're huge in Dublin, we're gonna be rich"! :D

    Whoever the drummer was for the first band, he had some throw. He got a drum stick to the sound desk at the back of the venue...

    I'm fairly sure it was a twelve string. It sounded that way at least.

    Maybe they were mixing/chorus or something to make up for the one guitarist?

    They may well have. The head looked more elaborate than that of his usual guitar though. That being said, I was quite far back.

    I love Mastodon.. I've seen them twice, at Tool and in the Ambassador...

    In the Ambassador they were class. But at Tool they actually sounded like the worst band I've ever heard, I mean really really ****e, which was very surprising!!! Hopefully they've fired their sound guy...:D

    I know it was a while ago but would you have the setlist from their opening show for Tool? that was the first time I was seeing them live and though the sound was terrible, I managed to enjoy it thanks to 2 friends of mine, fans of the band.
    Second time opening for Metallica was much better ...
    And I'm still waiting for my first show with them as a headliner (I missed their show in December 2008...)

    Cheers ;)

    Well the over 18's it's a problem for me:D, and i hope that you are right. Saw these guys in Marlay park but really want to see them play Crack the Skye the whole way through. Really pissed that I missed them in '08, damn exams, but gonna make sure that the next time that they come here I will be at it.
