    Is Johnson done and dusted with touring now due to his hearing issues?

    From what i gather online he was working with specialists to try and solve the issue, he has been on a stage since he left a few years ago, he sang with Muse at Reading last year i think, be great to have Phil Rudd back as he was sorely missed on the last tour, there defintely up to something though

    There's a theory floating on a Guns N' Roses forum (of all forums) that Brian is doing the studio sessions, and Axl will handle the live duties, now how true that theory is, remains to be seen.

    I've also read (on Twitter) that the AC/DC pictures are from a previous recording session and not recent.

    I am still here.

    If Metallica end up playing Slane/Croke Park I'll pay out. I'd seriously be stunned if they think they'll shift the 80,000 tickets or so required to fill either of those two.Though the upsurge in talk is starting to make me doubt myself, but a lot of talk and wishful thinking does not make something necessarily so. They are a huge band, but I don't think they've the pulling power to play either of those two venues.

    Anywhere else I think they could just about do it, though the Aviva could be stretch for them at fifty thousand.

    Personally can't see them doing Croker meself, but okay...there or Slane I win,Aviva or RDS it's quits, a gig anywhere else in Dublin you win. Don't play at all I'll give €50 to Glenn Tipton foundation.

    Talk ? where ?

    Forums including Metallica one on here, social media all pretty much spurred on by MCD posting Metallica stuff I think.

    Well if you want to just wear a tracksuit to it you probably won't be turned away.

    In my experience, outdoor venues in this country are terrible, but elsewhere they can be great, if the sound/transport/location is actually considered.

    Would it not be Sound technicians are terrible ?
    Ok, Croke park is is bad for echo.
    But there should be no excuse for sound techs to not be able to get the sound right for Slane/Ardguillan Castle/Malahide Caste etc....

    Bad sound = Bad tech ? in most cases...

    I would guess you're right. It's always seemed to me that the volume is turned up louder than the setup can handle or something like that. I'm no expert, but I've seen stuff abroad where there seems to be a lot more speakers dotted throughout the crowd.

    The sound for Queen (and Adam Lambert) in Marley was the best outdoor sound I've ever heard in Ireland except for maybe Bruce in Belfast. It seemed like they had the speakers in a semi circle which created a bubble of perfect sound. Obviously not feasible in croker/Aviva without blocking the stands, but I'd love to see it implemented more.....

    Would any band even have a say in where they play as the promoter pays them a flat fee so its up to the promoter to get a venue that works out the best.

    2 shows in Mexico at the end of the year one the '18 side and one '19 side where they'll be airing new material for the first time. Imagine there'll be update on the new album soon which I'd presume they'd tour into 2019 and beyond.
