UK gigs in november/october

[Smudgee]

Im going to the Sheffield gig in November, anybody else going to any of the UK ones?

 

[Cari]

I MIGHT.
Havent really planned anythign yet though due to the fact I have to wait and see my university schedule and my bank account, so... :/

 

[The Shinster]

I'll be in Canada from September until next year X(

Reading is only like 30 minutes away from me too =(

(Hint for Turisas: Play in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada within the next 12 months).

 

[KittiKataklysm]

I'll be at their gigs with bells on. Both figuratively and literally
I'll go to at least one of their gigs while they're in England, but where I go is dependent on where I go to University, which I won't know until mid August.
If all goes well, and I have enough money, I'll be at Brighton, Reading, Southampton and possibly wolverhampton. I'll definitely be at Heidenfest in London as well.

 

[Smudgee]

Im going to Heidenfest in London for sure, my tickets came through yesterday

 

[DuncanSneddon]

Damn, damn and double damn. The Glasgow show is on the same day as Manowar play Glasgow.

 

[scareyfaerie]

I will be at the Wolverhampton gig, tickets already purchased and stashed away safely!

 

[Cari]

Damn, damn and double damn. The Glasgow show is on the same day as Manowar play Glasgow.

not anymore, it´s been changed!

 

[LokisMuse]

I'll be at the Newcastle gig, Bristol's a possibility too since my folks live there and I can stay overnight
And maybe the Wolves one too if I can drag friends from there along. Haha, and maybe Sheffield....ah hell, why not the lot?!

I would love to go to Heidenfest but I hate London with a vengeance and will never be seen again if I go there. :Shedevil:

Supporting bands for Turisas’ UK headline dates: Chthonic (TW) and Kiuas (FIN)

We are pleased to announce the support bands for the upcoming UK headline tour, which will start on 27 October 2011.

Violinist OLLI VÄNSKÄ: “We’re glad to be able to announce what we feel is a really strong support package for the UK shows – both bands have been to the UK before but probably haven’t yet had the exposure they deserve – we’ll try to change that! Make sure you get down to the shows early to experience something a little bit different!”

The support bands will be cult Taiwanese metallers CHTHONIC, plus fellow Finns KIUAS. The tour consists of 17 dates, including 2 co-headline gigs with Devin Townsend Project and appearance at Leeds’ Damnation Festival. The dates on the tour are as follows:

(NB Please remember that neither Chthonic nor Kiuas will be appearing with us at Leeds Damnation Festival, or the Belfast and Dublin shows – but please check locally for details nearer the time, in case this changes)

This is great, I love Kiuas but never seem to manage to find any tour dates in England, and to be able to see them supporting Turisas? That's brilliant!

 

[Gosalyn]

I've got tickets to the Dublin gig, Nov 8th! And the very next day, Nov 9th, Manowar will be performing in the exact same club, and I happen to have tickets to that one too! I've seen them live only once, the last time they were in Helsinki, it was the year 2004 or something, so I can't wait... Besides, the same warrior outfit is totally suitable for both gigs - in case there's still something left of it after the first one!

But let me just say: it's going to be a hell of a November!

 

[Cari]

I dedcided that I will not be going to any of the UK gigs - unless I find a sponsor for the flights.
Otherwise: no, I need to set priorities atm *sighs*

 

[amylewis143]

I'll be at the Wolverhampton gig, just needing to pick up the ticket =D

 

[Smudgee]

Priorities? What could be more important than a Turisas gig? :O

 

[Cari]

Priorities? What could be more important than a Turisas gig? :O

There is A LOT.

 

[Smudgee]

[amylewis143]

[Smudgee]
