That's most of it I think. Not too bad but there are still so many shows that are missed. There are just way too many events to see in any given year in these parts. S.O.T.U., Blackest of Black, and some other local shows missed this year would have been good to see. There was no Milwaukee Metalfest this year. Surprise surprise? Oh well. Still a couple of weeks left until '06. I might visit the annual Holiday of Horrors with Macabre, et al, but no other '05 shows are planned at the moment.

My list for 2005 was quite repeative :erk: :

Omnium Gatherum/ Before the dawn 12.2. 5€? + drinks
DARK TRANQUILLITY /(Cradle of Filth) / Kreator 7.3. 30€+40€+drinks= ?
Omnium Gatherum/ Codeon 3.6. 3€ + drinks

Tuska 15.-17.7. 100-150€?

Battlelore 5.8. (free entrance/ open-air) drinks
Rytmihäiriö/ Nailgunner 4.11. = 5€ + drinks. something too expensive to remember.
Battlelore / Heavy metal perse / Kivimetsän druidi 3.12. = approx 30€

I might be missing something, but it´s unlikely. Conclusion is that, I´d save lot of money if I didn´t drink while seeing a band. On the other hand, being in the pit of Rytmihäiriö would then be impossible.
 
@Naku: If repetition is bad then I'm on the same side of the fence. :) You're right about the alcohol factor, too. ;)

@Undo: No specific dollar amount figures to offer, but I can tell you that some of the shows on my list were freebies. Two of them were free shows to begin with and 4 of them were guestlistings. A fifth one (the Exodus show) would appear to be a freebie from my ticket stub, but in that case I purchased a reduced price ($10) "comp" ticket from some dude selling them outside the venue. I told him that if it was a bogus ticket I'd come back out and kick his ass. :lol:

The cost of admission usually isn't terribly high for most of the shows I go to but I tend to see a lot of local bands where it's a mere $5-$10. Some local bands will guestlist me but it's not often and they're usually low-dough shows anyway. Most of the time the greater expenses are incurred by beverage/food/merch purchases and travel expenditures.
 
Oh, okay, thanks.

See, my list was:

- 21 may: Sepultura / Leprosy / Mákina / two shitty bands: 200-300 pesos (think 15-25 dollars)
- 8 october: Nightwish / Therion / Overkill / The 69 Eyes / Rage / Poison The Well: 650 pesos (plus Ticketmaster shit tax and stuff, think 715 pesos or so)
- 18 october: Apocalyptica / some guy who covered Iron Maiden on piano (amazing): 450 pesos

So it's really a lot of money compared to what other forum members seem to be paying for their concerts.

Damn shitty country where nobody ever comes and when they do prices are too high! ;)
