    yeah actually lads, what entrance is it? i went in the press entrance last year..(don't ask)

    I've never been to Marley Park before so never really thought about that,how many entrances does this place have?

    don't all roads lead to the same venue entrance ????
    thought that was the problem last year, having to walk all the way around from the car park past 10 or more unused entrances to the venue really annoyed me.......

    anyway, there's the park entrance on Grange Road and then at the back theres the Car Park/Bus entrance - not familiar with any others, just know I'll be trying Grange Road this time out, the farce coming in the other way last year was a really bad start to an evening.....

    Nope.... think im getting the 16 bus and getting off in some housing estate in ballinteer (as far as i remember) then a 10-15 min walk past an esb substation :confused: ...

    Aiming to arrive at Marlay Pk around 8-8.30 but itl probably be 9 at the realistic earliest.

    Its in front of Burger King on O'Connell st.. think its every 15-20 mins if memory serves me right


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 486 ✭✭The Frayed Ends


    Thanks and it drops you off close enough so theres not a chance of going the wrong way getting lost and missing the start of the gig and having to be behind 30,000people. Right? :pac:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 486 ✭✭The Frayed Ends


    The rain is meant to be on and off again tomorrow is it not?
    Its going to rain, That is fairly obvious. We just got to hope its not heavy and doesnt last too long haha

    Yeah it's definitely going to rain a little bit but I'd say the worst of it would be over with by 3 or 4.

    First off Disposable Heroes FTW.. great tune.

    Second, if we HAVE to have whiskey, then i hope it replaces (in dream land) Enter Sandman (realistically) That was just your life or holier than thou. 3 tracks i dont care for.

    But, tbh once its not load/reload/st anger/too much DM i dont really mind... its METALLLLLIIICCAAAA after all! One track id love to hear, although theres no chance at all, is Outlaw Torn.

    If they play fight fire with fire or Blackened I won't care what else they play :D

    Same here. Thank you! :D

    It wil either be , Dyers Eve,Fight Fire with Fire,Blackened or Battery after Master of Puppets unless they go with a festival type set list which i cant see happening. Its the DM tour after all.

    Id guess Fight Fire with Fire is most likely. i rather that then Dyers Eve. I love Dyers Eve it just doesnt seem great live. Theres a reason they never played live in about 20 years.

    and about the outlaw torn that could happen. They have played it the odd time this tour

    Deadly.... thats one of my fave "rock-tallica"(load & reload) songs. I'd love to see metallica do a Dream Theater, and randomly rotate their setlist.. that way there might be some rarer live songs played.

    yeah that would be good. I stil think Lars does a great job at changing the songs up though. He looks at past set lists from the same country and decides what to play. Of course after talking with the rest of the band :pac:

    With an album tour your kind of restricted though. Have to play a number of songs from the new album as well as old classics which is not going to satisfy everyone.as its a tough choice on what songs to play
