    Great stuff,i'll be going to this!:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,966 ✭✭✭GhostInTheRuins


    It's far from a rumour. I'll be at this definitely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,550 ✭✭✭NIBBS


    Sould be a cracker, the last gig they played here was a shambles, certainly organisation wise.......
    I'm expecting this one to sell out, so I'm off now to order the tickets.......I've seen more interest in a couple of days than maybe for the whole thing last time out......

    thanks for the link Karl, saves me the hassle of searching for it later,
    was just watching Wild Child from Hellfest and sounded pretty good......can't really go wrong for that €25....

    There is a lot more interest, no doubt about it. Probably because it isn't so much of a rip-off this time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,013 ✭✭✭SirLemonhead


    I'll be going again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,525 ✭✭✭kona


    the interest is mental, Wonder what has caused such a renewed interest in WASP?

    Anyhow e25 is robbery(on the promoters part) id pay e80 to WASP before id pay e80 to metallica.

    The last gig was ****ing EPIC, the best gig I have EVER been at.....

    Fingers crossed Steel panther to support:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 459 ✭✭PattheMetaller


    Tickets purchased. Great show.:D

    Has Blackie still got the exploding cod piece?

    They cancelled a gig at the last minute last nite in swansea, apparantley because the place was a ****hole.


    No chance of getting them to play in fibbers after so:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 115 ✭✭Dr. Feelgood


    What capacity is The Button Factory? Don't think I've been to a sold out show there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,525 ✭✭✭kona

    Pretty sure the cap is 750-800.....
    all I know is that it will be jammed tonight, was in there last night for Marillion and it was nice and spacious.......tonight will definitely be hot and sweaty.....but good.....

    Great gig,great atmosphere,savage setlist and blackie sounded ****ing great!! That idiot with the laser pen needed to be ****ed out tho..who in there right mind goes to a gig to annoy the band they've just paid money to see! Just dont get it!

    I thought i was imagining the laser pen,feckin gob****e!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,525 ✭✭✭kona


    Some gob****e ****ed a pint on the guitar pedals too. There were alot of morons there coming to think of it didnt really care though as I was pretty ****ed.One prick decided my girlfriend shouldnt be up the front because all of her 5"3 couldnt handle his 6ft flabby ass, deciding to put his arms on her pushing her to the ground. Prick. Its not like my Girlfriend was just standing there either, she was getting stuck in to the atmosphere.

    Im beginning to think its impossible for WASP to play a ****e gig. Pity no **** like a beast, despite a Massive poster of some porn star spread open, asking blackie to nail her ass to the sheets:D

    So far Ive WASP 1 and 2 in the top 3 gigs Ive ever been too.

    Some die-hard W.A.S.P. fan i was talking to at the gig said Blackie has found god again,hence no **** like a beast!:)

    The beer on the pedals incident,is that why 2 of them exited the stage for a while and had a rather long drum/lead guitar extended solo? I could see the tech on the left hand side of the stage working away frantically at something.

    I dont think so, It seemed to land on doug blairs pedals, hes the lead guitarist so I dont think it was that. I remember the tech just legging it out a few times during the gig. Lucky it didnt blow the pedals or even the amps, otherwise wed have had no gig.

    Ye Blackie rambles on about god in the Babylon album! He left out "Cocksucking asshole" from the chainsaw charlie lyrics. I dunno what the hell is up with him hes a little aloof, just ignoring some material that you wrote that contains explicit lyrics just because you "found" god is a little insane.
    Next album will he a fecking Christian Rock album:D each to their own I suppose, he still rocked the **** outa the place so I dont care, Babylon is quite good too, even if it borrows heavily from previous albums.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,577 ✭✭✭lord lucan


    Ah i remember the other tech running on stage alright,figured it was something more mundane.

    yep, like Lucan said a cracker.........in my book definitely one of the contenders for gig of the year........

    Blackie said about FLAB that he would never play it again as he no longer thinks that it's an appropriate image to leave kids with at a gig, and although he's of course entitled to do what ever he wants I think it's a shame for so many fans that want to hear the track........I actually like it as a song, not just because of the content of the lyrics/imagery.....
