Have just seen that Metallica are playing in marlay park in August. I have never seen them live but i'm definitely going to this one. Has anyone been to any of their gigs before. What has been your favourite gig to date
my first gig ever was metallica in the rds in 2003. metallica are very strong live, they do a pretty long set, not lazy in the performance. it was a crazy gig, you will need to queue in the early morning to get up the front and there will be moshing where your there, my back was fecked after it. it will be hardcore. my favourite gig was up the front for foo fighters at oxegen 2005 and ill see them again at the hurricane festival this summer. also dying to see Muse, i hear rumours that they might be playing Belfast and Dublin soon enough.
Yeah i went to see Metalica back in 2003 in the RDS too and it was a pretty good gig. The use some class special effects and all that but there was some energy missing from them, everything was just far too rehearsed for a heavy rock band. Got into the gig for free and managed to get into the mosh pit too which was pretty crazy! Oh and they had the darnkess and linkin park as their warm up acts, what a disaster that was.
darkness were fun, no1 knew them really at the time and it was just a big jump around and mock fighting. linkin park got some booing but they kept performing well and fair play, they won the crowd over. well done getting in for free. i heard the last irish metallica gig was amazing, they played master of puppets album start to finish to warm up.
Michael Jackson in the RDS was a great show. Pure entertainment. Im not a fan but my mate got tickets and we were on the p!ss from about 10am so yeah, it was a good one.
Happy Days Got the tickets today. Can't bloody wait. By the way my best gig to date i think has to be the Chilli peppers at slane.
I went to a Babyshambles gig in the ambassador 2 years ago after getting freebies. Turned out to be a brilliant gig. Frank Black at Witnness in 2001 was amazing too but Massive Attack at Electric Picnic in 2006 is probably the best.
oasis city of manchester july 2005 paul mccartney dublin absolutely amazing the who marlay park last year
P.Diddy and Snoop Dogg at the point last year was feckn brilliant !! They had House of Pain der as well and dey did loadsa U2 songs
Bellx1 did a great show in the savoy a few years ago Kings of leon , bloc party and muse were top class at oxygen last year I was at oasis in pairc ui caoimh in 96 The prodigy warmed up for them and they were awesome
The Charlatans played the Ambassador a couple of years back it was a savage gig, well worth seeing them live if ye get a chance
