A GA ticket is $270 here in Auckland is too, but that currently works out to about AU$225 so I think I'm getting the better deal! Helps that I work remotely for an Australian company and get paid in dollarydoos. 😉

I was expecting Megadeth to make it back to NZ at least once on their final tour, though didn't expect it quite this soon. An even better reason for me to bother seeing Maiden a 2nd time than just the fact they're playing older shit.

Some fav doom songs... I also dig how some non-doom metal bands dabbled in doing a slow/doomy tune, eg. The Rods - Witches' Brew or Tankard - Atomic Twilight. Even Overkill did 'Skullkrusher'.

In 2020 I believe the forum was 20 threads per page, so this would've been saying 80 threads covers 4 years. Now it's 30 threads per page and 80 threads covers 10½ years. Or 3 pages covers nearly 11 years. Keep up the bad work, I guess... 😉

Looks like the love counts for more than the money and you didn't have much to worry about!

I'm way more of a Megadeth fan and very glad it looks like there'll be an Auckland date (edit: ticket acquired). No complaints about seeing Maiden a 2nd time though. Last week 'Your Mate Bookings' teased a Candlemass tour also. I'd travel to Australia for them if I have to. If they play...

A Christian evangelist influencer went to the show on a boat (with True Sons of Satan performing Destroyer 666) expecting to find serious evil. First metalhead he talked to in depth turned out to be a born-again Christian. Can't make this shit up. :lol:

Frenzy is peak Bloopy taste. Lifeboat is great too. A little odd after seeing the film it inspired: Lifepod (1993), which is more dramatic for the occupants due to the temperature extremes and more of them getting bumped off. Young and Innocent is alright. Has some good moments such as the...

Point being if he so much as hits a triangle or shakes maracas he can eat his words about claiming to retire before Slayer :p

Well maybe not seriously, but for a bit of fun once he gets over some of his ability declining. He could even have another guitarist show up and just do vocals at some point.

I don't think Slayer playing 8 or so reunion shows (with another one booked for late this year) negates the fact that they're retired. Because Megadeth will probably play occasional shows to mark certain anniversaries etc. too. The retired period being when touring is no longer work and they...

Now that I've seen all his talkies at least twice... 5 worst Hitchcock films: 1. Downhill 2. The Manxman 3. The Ring 4. The Paradine Case - yawn, apparently even Hitch was bored making this one. Still, we're now into the 6/10s already as he was that good. 5. Sabotage - somewhat miserable as...

How about the desk hot dog in The Exterminator, haha: Some sources claim the idea was borrowed from Kojak, but I can't find that scene.
