:OMG:

EDIT:
How do you guys get to/from gigs? I usually have to take the train, but when gigs finish too late, it's a bit of a pain, hence why I only go to Manchester for gigs (sparingly at that) when I can get a lift back.
 
Used to get the train from Havant to London an awful lot (1hr15 journey shortest). It limited how many shows I was able to go to. Now I live in London so I can either walk, bus or tube to shows and not worry about getting home. Also a lot cheaper on that side of things, but damn expensive in rent. I was lucky that even when I was travelling to London, the last train home was 23:45 or 0:45 on Sundays. Did kinda suck getting home at 2:30am, though! :lol:
 
26th of March - Transsyberian Orchestra, really looking forward to that one. Missed them twice on business trips to the US when I arrived just a week after they played, and now theyre coming this way :D

14th of april, Megadeth & Slayer. Need I say more?

9th of november, Rihanna. My wife is American and hates metal. Things you won't do for love ey?
 
A couple of shows announced recently that I'm definitely going to:

Gama Bomb - Sheffield Corporation - 9th May: It'll be the third time in less than a year seeing these and all at this venue! The last time I saw them was in support of the band below.

Sepultura - Derby Redemption - 1st July: Saw them at the above venue last year and they are a good example of a band that is MUCH better live than they are on CD. Should be another great show!
 
Let's see, I got these lined up in the upcoming months:
16 March - Devin Townsend (+ Aeon Zen) in Utrecht
18 March - Power of Metal in Amsterdam
20 March - Power of Metal in Tilburg
25 March - Threshold (+ Day Six) in Zoetermeer
28 March - Devin Townsend (+ Aqua d'Annique/Anneke van Giersbergen) in Zoetermeer
15 Aoril - PQ in Zaandam
26 May - Pagan's Mind in Zaandam

My band account is so going to suffer :p
 
Adding Amon Amarth's 'evening with' tour to my roster :D can't wait to get tickets for Chicago - 3-ish hours of Amon Amarth with no opener? Yes, please!
