Pre-Christmas gigs

[Symphony]

Anyone got any plans to see any shows between now and the end of 2002? Maybe Dream Theater this month perhaps?

I'll try and catch Sinergy in London in November but other than that there isn't too much going on. I've seen Dream Theater a couple of times so I don't know if I'll bother this time, although they are rumoured to be playing an entire album by another band at one of their London shows this month (I heard it could be Maiden's 7th son)

Previously they have done a similar thing with "Master of Puppets"

Before Xmas I'll be seeing Nocturnal Rites/Story Teller at the Underworld (If this gig materialises), Possibly Lacuna Coil, Definitely Gamma Ray in Germany, then Doro at Bradford and probably Sinergy.

No live gigs for me before Xmas unfortunately!! My domestic responsibilities loom large at the moment and it looks as if they will continue to do so for the forseeable future.

 

[WeekendWarrior]

wow eagle..you have alot to look forward to
nocturnal rites and gamma ray live.. i have to see mr kai hansen live some time!


NP: Griffin - The Sideshow

 

[WeekendWarrior]

i'm going to see "pagans mind", "griffin" and many other metal bands live, 28 november..
i'm really looking forward to that...it's going to be a great power metal evening!


NP: Griffin - Shadows Of Deception

 

[Symphony]

WW....that sounds like a pretty cool night out dude!

Eagle.....still can't confirm anything on the Nocturnal Rites front...I'll keep my ear to the ground

DM....I hope the Power Quest (When it arrives!) album helps to make up for your lack of live shows.

I can't remember where I heard the rumour of Nocturnal Rites doing the Underworld on the 31st. I'm pretty sure I didn't dream it because I remembered that Storyteller where the support and I'd not heard of them before.

To WeekendWarrior,

If you want to go and see Gamma Ray at Bochum on November 4th then join The Metal Nomads http://www.gamma-ray.com

I don't know if there are any flights in from Norway but the geezer who's organising it all is very approachable and helpful. You can e-mail him from the Gamma Ray website.

Next Friday I'm seeing Capdown and two other bands of that sort on the same bill...after then I need to find more gigs to keep myself occupied!

 

[Blessed Night Child]

Before Christmas I will be seeing any new DVD I buy. LOL! There's no place to go but Florida or Louisiana (next state over). I haven't heard of anything good but Blind Guardian in Florida in Nov. I believe but I am like totally broke now. Hopefully, I will see a power metal band live before my death.

You all are very lucky. Count your blessings.

 

[Symphony]

And I thought we had it bad over here BNC.....damn that sucks! If you went to that Blind Guardian show..how far would you have to travel?

 

[Blessed Night Child]

I believe it's about a 14-16 hour drive. I haven't driven it before but I am close on the hours of the drive. No funds is my problem now. Why couldn't they come when I had some money?

 

[Symphony]

Christ! That is a long drive indeed! Makes you realize how big the US is and how small the UK actually is

 

[Father Time]

Hope to go to the Legends of Rock gig in Cambridge next month. Jack Bruce doing some old Cream stuff, Uli John Roth doing some old Scorpions stuff and Michael Schneker doing some UFO and Scorpions stuff, followed by a giant jam!! Apparently a 3 hour show, but at £22 per ticket, a bit steep!

Saw Threshold in London last week, absolutely awesome.....

 

[pits]

im suppose to go to arch enemy and dark tranquillity in montreal but i heard that dt nave left the tour so not sure if im going cause they are replaced by god forbid and im not really a great fan of this band so i hope they can make it¸

cheers

I remember the drive from Lincoln, New Mexico to Las Vegas, Nevada took us 8 - 10 hours...worth every minute though - I love Vegas!
