How goes it everyone? How's your weekend going?

Went to see Crimson Peak last night with a few friends. It was only okay, unfortunately. Quite disappointed. Have a busy week ahead of me between Halloween and getting organised for Dir en grey's North America tour just after it! Read some concerning news about their guitar Kaoru though. He can physically no longer hold onto a guitar pick and has resorted to taping it to his fingers . Loose ligaments and nerve paralysis. Apparently it can be cured but it's a slow process.

Ah sweet . They are playing Belfast as well but I might be in Germany so I've held off looking for a ticket at the moment. I've never seen them either myself.

Yup, it's still 6 months away, but knowing i'll be literally within high fiving distance of Robb Flynn/entire band , would love to have done Dublin & Belfast, but Dublin is closer, plus i have other commitments :pac:, also definitely gonna hang around the Olympia before/after the show just in case , camera & notebook and marker in hand.. I'm such a fan boy ... Following a band on tour round Europe next year i assume?? If ya can, try and get a Machine Head ticket, i can guarantee, you will not regret it.

Good luck with meeting them . Well I'm thinking of attending a wee one day festival in Oberhausen called E-Tropolis. It's an industrial/synth pop/EBM festival. Depends if I can get someone to come with me and if not then Machine Head it is

Hey folks

Damn, I seriously want to see Crimson Peak, was going to go last week, but didn't have the scratch. Hopefully this week we'll catch it, I'm a big fan of Del Toro.

Reiketsu

Don't get me wrong, it's still worth a watch and it looks stunning but I was hoping for a bit more from it

Ah I'm still going to see it one way or another

Saw them here in Christchurch a few months back. It was epic. I actually paid an extra 100 bucks for a meet and great. Sound bunch of lads. Got to have a good chat with all of them.
So Ive met Machine Head, Pepper Keenan and most of Corrosion of Conformity and Dave Grohl. Just missed Vinnie Paul a few weeks ago and Im hoping to meet Zakk Wylde when I go to see Black Label Society in a few weeks. Its been good so far!!

They usually do meet & greet before the show, but nothing announced for Dublin , gonna hang around the venue after the show

Kinda jealous you got to meet Dave Grohl and Pepper Keenan.. Even better if you get to meet Zakk Wylde, i envy you good sir..

Haven't a clue what I'm doing.

You know I'd actually love to do something in the spirit of Halloween this year, as I haven't done much the last couple. Have no idea what though :P

Anyone got any good scary movie suggestions? New or classic. Just good Halloween ones

Links234

I'm not really up to much, been playing some spooky games :pac: might watch some movies myself.

Yeah Somnus, anything you had in mind? Because if you want some supremely creepy Asian horror I got a few suggestions up my sleeve.

Somnus

Haha, I don't actually have anything in mind. I wouldn't be a huge horror movie fan, but my girlfriend loves them.

Probably be watching it with her and my two other housemates. Feel free to make some suggestions and I'll check them out at least!

Check out A Tale Of Two Sisters, awesome movie

I'll just be going out with some friends to the bar for drinks . Nothing special but its been a while since the whole gang was together for a good drink so I'm looking forward to it. Afternoon pints with dad first though. Check out the town. Derry is fantastic on Halloween .

Links234

I've heard good things about Derry on Halloween alright, enjoy yourself

Reiketsu

Thanks Links, I'm sure I will. Sunday however.....:D

Links234

Yeah, I know the feeling. I don't drink much these days, so tend to avoid hungovering

Reiketsu

I just need to sniff booze and I'm hungover lol But I don't go out every weekend now so suffering is kept to a minimum :pac:

Links234

I can manage 2 or 3 drinks, and I'm good.

laoch na mona

I was in derry for hallowenn last year, it was good but I didn't think it was amazing, that said Derry is always a good spot for a night out

Links234

I'm the type to stay in, play (sometimes spooky) games, and watch horror movies

Watched Tucker & Dale vs. Evil last night.

Reiketsu

Well I'm not as hungover today as I managed . Going to buy myself a Sunday dinner as I can't face cooking lol. Then later I'll start getting organised to leave tomorrow!

Links234

Maybe the hangover hasn't kicked in yet?

Reiketsu

Haha I woke up at 8am originally feeling like death and had a couple more hours of sleep and felt a good bit better so think I've avoided a bad one. Hurrah

Links234

That's a relief.

I didn't drink enough to give me a hangover thankfully.
