    I can't see anything on their facebook about it. Plus I'd have thought ticketmaster would have some info on it also if the tickets were on sale on Friday. Can you post a link to where you seen this please.

    Check again, its there. Would link myself but on the phone. I'm sure ticketmaster or mcd or whoever will make a formal announcement later today or soon after. Saw em at download, they were good but they played too much new stuff, I'd say theyll play a lot more at this though being a headline show so will probs grab a ticket.

    That would be brilliant, saw Steel Panther play just before them at Download this year, would be the perfect support band

    Saw them play Rock Am Ring this year and tbh wasn't expecting much from them, but had a great time watching them despite much of the set being made up of stuff from the new album. They were one of the highlights of the festival for me.

    Will definitively be heading to this. Be very interesting to see who the support will be.

    Saw them support Metallica in 08, were very good. Delighted I can see them play a full gig now!

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    The new album stuff bored the crap out of me. Set at RIP wasnt a patch on seeing them at RDS. Hope its not expensive gig.

    My Chemical Romance tickets were €33 so I'd expect something along those lines.

    I'd say more unfortunately. If it is that cheap, I'm all over it. Could Shinedown support? UK dates are close enough.

    As much as i would love that , but it would be a weird band to support the D (as in style wise)

    No Belfast date

    Thursday 11 October – Munich, Germany @ Zenith
    Friday 12 October – Hamburg, Germany @ Sporthalle
    Sunday 14 October – Dusseldorf, Germany @ Mitsubishi Electric Halle
    Monday 15 October – Frankfurt, Germany @ Jahrhunderthalle
    Tuesday 16 October – Milan, Italy @ Mediolanum Forum
    Thursday 18 October – Brighton, UK @ Brighton Centre
    Saturday 20 October – Dublin, Eire @ O2
    Sunday 21 October – Wolverhampton, UK @ Civic Theatre
    Tuesday 23 October – Manchester, UK @ O2 Apollo
    Wednesday 24 October – London, UK @ Hammersmith Apollo

    UK shows are between £38 & £40 so i reckon we're looking at 50Euro, but the UK venues are a LOT smaller than The Point so they may have it around the 45mark

    Does anyone think this will sell quick? Heading on holidays on Thursday and I really dont wanna spend any money before I go. My plan would be to pick up a standing ticket when I'm back Friday next week
