[Doom]

Come to England. ANYONE!

 

[Erik]

come to SWEDEN! primordial moonsorrow and mourning beloveth!

 

[Doom]

This is one gig I'd definitely go to.

To demonstrate how little we get here, I'm going to see In Flames and Sepultura in about a months time, and I'm actually looking forward to it.

 

[Erik]

yeah... that sucks

you should come to wacken it's what all the cool people do!

 

[Doom]

I REALLY should, yeah. *contemplates*

 

[Erik]

EMPEROR and CELTIC FROST! might be one of your last chances ever to see those bands!

 

[Doom]

I might suggest it to all TWO of my friends who listen to metal. Yet those two still listen to rubbish bands.

 

[Erik]

oh but wacken always books a fair share of rubbish bands too so...

 

[snow2fall]

Come to Germany and see that gig in Berlin. Free accommodation.

 

[Doom]

OK MR. SALESMAN WHY DON'T I JUST BUY ALL THE TICKETS.

Keep your money then and spend it on CDs that you can listen to alone in your room. Just let me know in case you decide that a concert trip might be a good idea.

I must've spent thousands by now to travel across Europe to see Anathema. It was worth it every single time. :Spin:

 

[Claws of Perdition]

why do some bands think a world tour is everywhere but Australia! Its not a world tour with out all continent's you pompous wankers!

how am i supposed to keep it AND spend it on cd's at the same time... cause if you know how it would be great if you told me!

 

[KILL TULLY]

All of a sudden Boston RULES for heavy-fuckin-metal. DESTRUCTION soon \m/

1) Keep it, then, after wise consideration,
2) spend it on other things.

splendid work old bean

no seriously i am not opposed to the idea of going across half the god damn planet to see various bands but it would take more than primordial & moonsorrow for me to go to germany for a one-time event.

Here be monsters. Primordial with Mourning Beloveth played here in September, but i prefered to see Orange Goblin (who played in the exact same night) because i prefer man music.
By the way it is more "Balkans" here, than Europe. Which makes me happy in some cases.
