Rock Out 2009

[Spiff]

I happened to stumble across this when I was at the Ticketek website today. Certainly looks better than Soundwave.

Am I the last person to hear about this?

 

[Shadow298]

nope.

I never heard of it either.

but would love to see Diamond Head and Girlschool live!

 

[Shadow298]

just saw that it's Blade Management organising it.

is that our little friend who ripped people off or a totally different group and I'm confused again?

Just for a chuckle, head over to this thread where this "event" is being mercilessly derided.

Would you be willing to pay $270 for the privilege?

can't access, so can someone post the comments here?

 

[Spiff]

Why can't you access it? It's just another UM forum (the LORD one). There are four pages of comments so it'll be a bit cluttered.

 

[Goreripper]

I think he's been banned from there.

I wouldn't worry too much, Shadow. I threaten to post nude pix of myself online if it comes off, and a bunch of people remark about how silly it is to announce a three-day rock festival headlined by Girlschool at a 70,000 capacity venue with only 4 weeks' notice.

ah.
yes, very stupid.

 

[TinMan666]

that's a crack up.

 

[Bucko]

what GIRLSCHOOL or GORE NAKED

 

[Goreripper]

If this comes off, I will streak across the stage during Girlschool's set (preferably while they are playing "Demolition") and stage-dive into a bunch of bikies.

 

[Bucko]

bwhahhaha ... pity I won't be there to see it .... or mmm?

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I would love to see Lordi, but would pray for a side show where I didn't have to spend a spastic amount of money to see other shit bands as well.

The worst part about this is, if it was organised properly and pulled a proper headliner, it could do really well. Because it will no doubt fail, it will hinder any real chance of something similar coming in the future. Stupid.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I just checked the link and see that Lordi have already pulled out. Surprise Surprise.

Ah sorry man, I thought I un-banned you from there after we had that chat at Priest. All sorted.

cheers, mate.

no issue really.

 

[Shadow298]

something about this show still makes me think that it's Alex running it, who some may remember from a few years back as being a dodgy dodgy bastard who fucked up Doro's aussie tour.

can anyone confirm if he has a hand in this or not?

 

[Goreripper]

Not ALex. This is Aston's gig apparently.
