    Where were you? I actully was closer then I thought haha. I checked there :pac:
    Might have been. and if it was.. why didnt you join in?! :mad:

    EDIT: I was up at the railings at the start. With about 3 people in front me. I decided to move back as the gig went on. Needed to go moshing for Mastodon :D and stayed around there for the rest of the show

    Was anyone around for the barbecue?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,461 ✭✭✭Max_Damage


    I was at it.

    Metallica were good, as were AIC.

    Avenged Gayfold on the other hand were terrible, even worse when they dragged up some young lad to sing Pantera's 'Walk'.

    Arrived late, so I missed the other bands.

    Arms are completely bruised from too much moshing. All good fun though! :D

    My voice is wrecked,I haven't been able to talk all day.

    Still worth it :D

    great gig. first time to see metallica live. cant say that i am a huge metallica fan and was there more so to see AIC but Metallica rocked. Extremely tight band and are very appreciative of their audience unlike some other whiny mofo's.

    Yeah same with me. I ended up having to see them on my own because all my mates stayed at the back drinking :rolleyes: Really enloyed Metallica too. Did anyone else see the 10 year old English girl near the tower? She was on her dad's shoulders going nuts and singing along. It was her fifth time seeing Metallica live.

    I fully expected it to be Dyers Eve which although I love im not a major fan of it as a live song.
    Fight Fire with Fire however is one of my all time favourite songs so that made my night :D

    I cant even think straight haha. All my brain seems to be coming up with is. Fight fire with fire, fight fire with fire, fight fire with fire , fight fire with fire, FIGHT!!

    :D

    they actually do that regularly, get people up to sing a verse and a chorus of walk.

    they released it as a single like.

    Yeah but in this case I don't they had planned to. Everyone at the front was chanting "WALK! WALK! WALK!" between their songs.

    I was pissing myself laughing when they done the ooooh eeeh ohhh part last night,i just thought of you strangely enough.:P

    Metallica were as savage as ever,great show. The crowd were a bit meh tbh,a lot looked like they got freebies to go,only came alive during NEM and Sandman.

    Whiskey in the #3 spot was a surprise,looks like they just wanna get the song out of the way as early as possible now.

    Yeah it would seem so. Hopefully it wont be played here again :p

    i heard the bass drum going and was like its ****ing it! haha

    I was doing the oooh weee oohhh before the guitar even kicked in :D

    Come to think of it.. that could have worked out to be quite embarrassing if i was wrong haha :pac:

    Haha, yeah he looked like he wanted to fight afterwards. Some big guys came into that pit throwing people all over the show. Didn't stop me dropping them tho. Ended up with my tshirt in shreads. Was worth it tho.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,586 ✭✭✭cedomination


    ^Were you the tall guy with the black sleeveless shirt in the pit?

    I stopped to get some water from the taps while they played all nightmare long and on my way back in saw some shirtless guy getting wrestled out of the pit area by two security guards, is that the guy you were talking about?
