[Pethical]

yoda, u will love ne obliviscaris. will be an awesome weekend

 

[Yoda]

Yeah man, I checked out their myspace page (and I am now), after you were talking about them at the Opeth show. They sound pretty darn awesome, so I'll be at that show.

 

[in_absentia]

Fuck me, I had no idea about festival of the dead. I'll be there (both maybe).

Edit: Tom, or anyone else in Sydney, is that 'Gaelic Theatre', as in the place Children of Bodom played last year? Or is it something else altogether?

yeah same place as children of bodom

I mentioned it on a thred but meh. I was soo bitter when I found out Opeth wernt on the tour as in America.

So Im not going.

Same here. None of the other bands going really appeal to me.

 

[in_absentia]

how much rekon gigantour tix might be?

 

[Pethical]

prob 80 imo

 

[in_absentia]

thats pretty good. worth it i say

 

[Yoda]

I disagree. I won't be going. If I was it'd only be to see Megadeth really. Saw Arch Enemy when they came out last year and that was enough.

 

[Pethical]

depends on local supports for me. lord will prob get one of the slots, in which case ill be more inclined to go.

 

[in_absentia]

i missed arch enemy last thats why im goin

from the Hordern Pavilion website its says the show will run from 5.45 till 11pm and ticket prices are $86.75


bit steep, very short, it is

 

[whenharlequinsfall]

soulflys comming now, so ill probably go

 

[gumtree]

it doesn't suprise me that Opeth aren't coming back, seeing as they were just ehre in April. Don't ask for too much.

At least we have Dark Tranquillity coming very soon.

 

[Keith!]

Barstards, all we get to look forward to is Cannibal Corpse and Devil Driver

But Zakk Wylde is making his way over here which i guess is pretty cool.

thats 5hrs 15min divide that by 4 bands.. hold on or will megadeth play a longer set than everyone else?

 

[AshDLS]

Skinless, Ruins and MSI are on festival of the dead.

Yes I know that. They are ALSO playing Metal For The Brain the day after, which is the same day as the second day of Festival Of The Dead. Hell, even Lord is playing both festivals, AND on the same day too - they're doing MFTB in the early afternoon then driving straight to Sydney for FOTD.

i want to go to MFTB too! But im going to both the Nevermore shows.. let me know how it goes... damn im gonna shoot myself if Contrive and Alchemist are playing.. but then again.. Nevermore

MFTB without Alchemist is like... I dunno... a barbecue party without beer, or something. A kebab without meat. A porno without the moneyshot. Point being, they're essential, and they're playing. I dunno about Contrive though, heh. Probably.

 

[in_absentia]

too true. too true. omg Contrive are the best.

 

[selugic]

How do switchblade play at Metal for the Brain and festival of the dead on the same day?

 

[in_absentia]

it depends on what times they're on at each show i guess. i mean sydneys only a few hours from canberra. or maybe switchblade play on the 3rd of Nov the 1st Fest of the dead show then they go to canberra for mftb on the 4th. im sure there are some bands doing that

 

[Pethical]

switchblade and lord are both playing both MFTB and FOTD on the same day.

Lord play at 1, switchblade play at 2, lord drives up to syd as they start at 11, switchblade fly to syd as they are on at 6.
