Oh Yes poeple I have it on very good authority that Mettalica and Megadeath will also be playing with Iron Maiden and Marylin Manson in the RDS on August 31st!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I must say that sounds highly unlikely and I hope it's not true because I hate Megadeth and Metallica are now so **** it's unbelievable.

Le Rack · 25-05-2005 6:17pm

Yeah I wouldn't be huge on Metallica myself but I'm not complaining cuz I love Manson and Maiden are good too do neh!

It wasn't me! · 25-05-2005 8:34pm

Not a hope. No way, Megadeth aren't at all likely, given that they've played here only a few months ago, and Metallica would have instantly demanded they be made the headliners, so I'm going to say no.

That is NOT going to happen, whens the last time you saw metallica supporting a band?

superconor · 25-05-2005 9:22pm

That is just bull****. Megadeth there is more chance than Metallica, but there is still no way. I would love to see Megadeth again.

Le Rack · 25-05-2005 10:20pm

Metallica are headlining, I was told yesterday by a guy with major connections... well my best friends friend with major connections, but yeah, thats the story anyway, Metallica are headlining and then the three others.

John · 25-05-2005 10:53pm

I was just thinking, is there any chance of Megadeth being in the same line up as Metallica?

superconor · 25-05-2005 11:01pm

No mention on the Megadeth website.
Cannot load the Metallica website.
No mention on Iron Maiden website.
No mention on Marilyn Manson website.

....I see a pattern here....

Le Rack · 25-05-2005 11:06pm

I know I didn't believe it at first either cuz I had just been on the Maiden and Manson sites when I was told, but the sites did say "more to be announced" or something to that effect so eh just wait and see.
I've no credit at the mo so I cant ask your man for more details but as soon as I have em I'll post em here!

25-05-2005 11:12pm

I severly doubt that Metallica will be playing. Iron Maiden are the main act and I seriously doubt that Metallica will play second fiddle to them.

Anyways Metallica are'nt very good and would only lower the quality of the concert.

Le Rack · 25-05-2005 11:27pm

I'm not hugely worried anyway, I was mainly going for Manson, I like Maiden too. I just posted it for the benefit of those who like the bands and besides who's complaining if you get four bands for the price of two?!

herobear · 26-05-2005 12:26am

yay, 2 more reasons not too go!!

i hate metallicrap and i dont like megadeth live.

i was contemplating going if static-x or dragonforce were supporting, but now i get to save my money

honru · 26-05-2005 10:01am

Jeez, people won't give this up.

Megadeth will NOT be playing at the Iron Maiden gig because they are touring the US at the same time.

And Metallica...? C'mon...

Does this "friend" resemble Ashton Kutcher or Jeremy Beadle perhaps?

Metallica playing sounded pretty definite in the Irish Times last week.

Corruptedmorals · 26-05-2005 1:31pm

The irish Times report said 'might be'. Same with all the other newspapers.

I'm going..Maiden and Manson are definite anyway..Metallica are NOT going to appear third on the bill...why would they? And they can't be made the headliners now. Megadeth are touring elsewhere..america i think at the same time..besides, they played here on february 1st..not too long ago.

Static-x were meant to play, but Tripp Eisen is in court..not likely. Dragonforce were almost confirmed, but not anymore...

There is definitely more bands to be announced though...but none of the above, I bet.

Incorrect.
Copied from the article referenced above:

The Irish Times wrote:

Metallica
August 31
A big metal day out here - also
on the bill are the reformed Iron
Maiden and Marilyn Manson. Best
dress in black. EUR65.

No ifs, buts, maybes or mights about it.

edit: That said, they could be making it up or be totally wrong, but they sound pretty definite. It was in a line up of all the outdoor gigs this summer.

John · 26-05-2005 2:42pm

Reformed Iron Maiden? When did they break up?

Who are "Mettalica", "Megadeath" and "Marylin Manson" ?
Sorry - had to be done

My Name IsJonas · 26-05-2005 4:23pm

was august 31st the date Metallica played here 2 years ago? that could be the source of confusion.

Nope - that gig last year was early June, Dunno about the one in 2003 though, Hmm I wonder where Irish Times got that information?

One would have to be an almighty fool to believe that information.

The Bollox · 26-05-2005 6:47pm

there's nothing about that on TicketMaster.ie

Motley Crue · 27-05-2005 9:31am

SWEET MOTHER OF GOD! That would rock! Except if that became official you'd have all those pissed off little brats who hadnt bought a ticket being like AGGHHHH! Thats not fair etc etc. When i see it in writing, ill believe it, and ill prob have bought my ticket by then.

Iron Maiden, confirmed
Marilyn Mason, confirmed
Metallica, likely
Megadeth, unlikely, they are officially breaking up/finishing/legally ending after their short European Festival Tour i think anyways.

If it did happen, it would be the greatest gig on the history of the planet.

In the meantime, Shadows Fall and Slipknot with Helmet and Gizmachi (June 9th, RDS)

Metallica, likely? I don't think so, the reason Iron Maiden and Marilyn Manson are doing the RDS this year is because Metallica turned down another tour, they are taking it easy in the run up to their next album

and I don't think Megadeth will break up, there was talk of them changing the name seeing as Dave is the only original member remaining, but afaik they are keeping the name, did you notice they are doing a second European tour,and excluding Ireland, lol

It wasn't me! · 27-05-2005 8:22pm

I've got fifty quid that says Metallica won't come near this island this year. I missed Megadeth this year so hopefully they won't split and I'll get to see them. Metallica though? No way. They aren't headlining, and it would have been fully announced by now.

----sniff sniff----

I smell Bullsh.it

senordingdong · 28-05-2005 6:16pm

OMG!!!!
OMG!!!!

Did you guys hear the news!?!?!?!

Black Sabbath were just addeed to the line-up!

They're gonna kick it off with a few classics for us!

Zapp Brannigan · 28-05-2005 6:25pm

yeah megadeath might be there

but Megadeth are gonna be touring in the states during that time.

Iron Maiden, Marylin Manson, Mettalica AND Megadeath!
