Anyone heading to Slayer & Anthrax in the Olympia on Tuesday week?
No, but heading to Download Festival over in Donnington next weekend. :grinning: Anyone ever go to it? Was going to go a couple of years ago but couldn't in the end.
Would love to go to Download, the lineup this year is excellent although it would be only Saturday and Sunday that would be my kinda music.
Haven't been to Donington since I went as a teenager in 1995, an eyeopener!
An eye-opener? how so? Good lineup alright. Particularly looking forward to Iron Maiden who I've not seen live before. I believe they are very good live.

Had never been to a festival like that before, Sunstroke in Dalymount was tiny in comparison.
Iron Maiden are class live, saw them last in the Point 2010 on the day before Eoghan O'Gara scored THAT goal to beat Tyrone
Saw them at Monsters of Rock in '92, awesome live band, they really are!
I remember sitting on the quayside in Holyhead on the way home huddled around a small transistor radio which could just about pick up the commentary of the Dublin V Clare All Ireland football semi final. 'Twas a cracking day if memory serves...
Hahaha Vin, it's great how we always tie gigs back to Dubs games :smile:
Seen Maiden live twice, quality live, think one of them was in the O2 in 2010 too. Only bad thing about their gigs is Bruce running around with the union jack for the Trooper, although there is something in my head that he used an Irish flag at one of the gigs I was at
Sabbath
The Point
Friday January 20th
Hell Yeah!
Tickets starting from €93.50....
Ozzy's impending divorce from that weapon of a wife of his must be hitting the wallet hard....
A talentless gee-bag. As is their daughter.
Slayer & Anthrax tonight in the Olympia.
Decided against going to see Black Sabbath what with the ridiculous price of the tickets.
Happy flipside to that is Amon Amarth/Testament/Grand Magus play Vicar St in November for the much more reasonable price of €40
