RATM had no input into the initital Christmas number 1 campaign. It was some guy called Jon Morter and his wife. The song lyrics were just suitable as an anti Simon Cowell's bubble gum pop rant.

They're not "noobs". They've been around for almost 20 years, and sold millions of albums, and I don't think the price is ripping anyone off. Paul Mc Cartney tickets were €160 ffs.

I agree with the first statement and the fact the they are definatly NOT "noobs" but still feel that 70 is a bit much for a band that hasn't released anything in 10 years!



Still got tickets though:D

Star Bingo

reminds me, did anyone go along to see ADF last night? maybe some of you got into em as RATM took em on tour. complete muppets though since they replaced their main protagonists.. like 10yr ago! were the hottest ticket around for a while, scorchin group from '95-'00

Cos they just below them in Donington? Don't think it'll be that way,say it'll only be Gallows. Cypress Hill may show up, they doing the London one.

Just going on previous years, its usually the 2 or 3 of the big names, that play the Irish version too, Cypress Hill would be immense thou!

from total rocks news letter:

"Free Rage Tickets Gone - DON'T BUY THEM! » 23 Feb 10
Rage Against The Machine gave away all the tickets for their free show in Finsbury Park on June 6 in just three hours. And the promoters have warned people who were unlucky in the lottery not to try and buy them on eBay. Everyone with a ticket had to register and provide a photo. If you turn up with someone else's ticket then you won't be let in.
The band are now headlining the Download Festival at Donington (June 11-13), and also in Dublin on June 8."

Where are you basing that this will be the Irish Download? Just cos it happened in 2006, but that was big open-air concert. This is stand-alone show, not gonna have 3 or 4 big bands in there that night. Just whats announced and maybe CH.

Motley Crue

oh please tell me that we're not going to get any crappy Rap bands (I don't care much for the Beastie Boys or Cypress Hill) - Gallows and Deftones I can embrace - but if it turns out to be BB or CH I'm just not going

Crue - Beasties (only of course basing it on when I saw them years and years ago) are nothing like a Rap band - heavy, hardcore elements.....and were it to be greatest hits it would be cool....

agreed though - they did the Download thing once, and haven't heard of any plans to ever do it again.......just because bands that are on at Download may do warm up shows here isn't the same thing......

Give over with the irish download thing, was a total sham the last time, bands being pulled last minute, last minute stage changes.

It was a disgrace, and the fact there was a day between where nothing happened meant it was just someone who taught "hey, I know how to make even MORE money from them...." - I wouldn't really class it as a festival even though the people behind Download do, it was chance it fell into their arms

I am kind of disappointed tbh, I managed to get tickets 3 days later for June 8th, but there seating
I think ill just sell them on and not go. Seating would suck..right ?

Shiminay

It would suck, but it would suck a lot more than *not* seeing RATM
