What venue should Dark Tranquillity play at?

[Morei]

ok basically, i know how difficult it is for relatively small bands like DT to get a gig in a venue/festival of their choice (compared with bands like metallica, linkin park, slipknot e.c.t.) but if DT could headline a show & play to a full house at any venue/festival, which should that be & why?
mine would have to be either "the Astoria" in london england or the "reading festival" in england. the astoria because its prob the best intimit venue in britain were every one of the 1600 crowd feels the intense atmosphere no matter were they are, and the reading festival because its simply the biggest rock event in britain & its the place were bands can take a step forward into making a name for them selfs in the british music scene!

i dunno really as i haven't been to many venues.. the only one i've been to is "Globen", Stockholm. And when i was gonna see DT in 2002 they played in a small venue called "Fryshuset". So, yeah i guess the bigger Globen would be a cool place.

Not counting arenas so I can see DT truly make it big...

Camden Underworld. Insane little venue, would make for one hell of a show. However, as DT can headline bigger venues than that in London (and therefore sensibly do), little hope for any forthcoming tour.

I'd like to see them at Rock City, since I'd probably not go to see them anywhere else due to lack of funding... :/

 

[Arch]

Ozzfest would be cool for them.

*sigh* ok then Soulburner :Smug: this thread now has a NEW name, this is now called "WHAT VENUE IN YOUR AREA WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE DT PLAY AT???" happy now Soulburner

[EDIT: BAD LINK]

 

[DeepInMisery]

why do you post a link claiming to be dark tranquillity pics when they are in fact not?

 

[rahvin]

@morei: next time you do something like that the thread gets deleted.

 

[Morei]

ok, sorry. Just trying to be a bit to clever in getting people to click the link. really sorry, won't happen again

 

[rahvin]

ok.
why don't you just put the link in your signature, with some catch-phrase like "click here and you will have multiple orgasms"? as long as you don't mention dt and come here to flaunt it, it doesn't have to be honest, you know?

 

[Morei]

oh right, didn't realise i could do that....erm.....how do i create a signiture (im not computer friendly ) by the way rahvin, U got any venues that you'd like 2 see DT play at?

Slikpnot? What's up with them?

 

[rahvin]

@morei: go to your "user cp" page (first link to the left at the top of each page you visit) and then to the "edit signature" page. you treat your signature like a normal post and you can add links in exactly the same way, so you know the drill already.
as for where i'd like to see dt, well, i let them choose: i can travel anywhere.

wembley stadium

 

[Morei]

thanks for the details rahvin you can travel NEwhere ....this might sound a bit stupid but are you like part of DT's managment crew or like really good mates with them? oh and Thanatos, last time i was at wembley the stadium was erm, how can say....a building site so that would definately be an interesting gig

 

[rahvin]

@morei: @ your new sig.
and yes, i know some band members well, but it's not as if they would pay for my trips or anything... let's say i just give a lot of importance to spending some time with friends whenever i can.

My room.

@morei: the astoria is not that great IMO. i once did the very stupid thing of getting upstairs tickets for a show, and i was simply hating all the slam-dancing, stage-diving crowd below. if you're downstairs, it's bliss, but there's the big risk of getting the balcony. if it had to be london, i'd say the garage (if you want the intimate feeling) or that-club-of-which-the-name-escapes-me right across the street from the camden tube stop. underworld, possibly. and i know that i'm forgetting somewhere.

 

[Rusty]

Yes, the Underworld, where I'll be going sometime soon. Is it a decent venue, overall??

 

[hyena]

i think it's lovely. it's got a very large bar so you don't need to kill people to get a beer, the stage's high enough to protect the band but not too high, and the crowd is usually fine.
