    Well, multiple video screens and pyrotechnics seems a little extravagant for a venue the size of Vicar St. I'm curious as to how they'll pull that off.

    multiple video screens

    Im guessing 2 :pac:
    pyrotechnics

    A couple of flash pots :pac:

    I'm sure they could put on a decent pyro show in Vicar St......there's plenty of options for the video stuff, I'm sure it's gonna be a great show....

    Scud - 2 hopes of that I think ;-) would be a shame to have the exploding codpiece and not play it though :-)

    I know Blackie's feelings on playing it live but this is a 30th Anniversary tour, and Animal is a BIG part of WASP's history.

    I'll always remember Donington '87 when they played it, had a topless woman on the rack, fcukin awesome it was too

    Unlikely to play f*ck like a beast. With blackies born again beliefs

    Tickets will be available on the door, priced €30. Think I'm going to make a late decision to head in to this.

    Went along. Good night and a decent crowd. Not too unlike the last visit tbh. 3 video screens. No pyros. Enjoyable setlist. Mate suggested that Blackie looks like a cross between Ozzy and Nancy Wilson from Heart ;-)

    Yep, decent gig, I thought. Was a little surprised at how good the crowd was, actually, as I had visions of a couple of hundred people being there, but the floor area was full without being packed. Only downside was getting stuck behind the tallest cnut in the room for a while! :) Good setlist (I enjoyed the Crimson Idol section a lot, despite not being too familiar with the album) and Blackie told a couple of good yarns as well.
