metallica will supposedly be doing another show in the point in february.

feylya · 23-08-2003 5:40pm

Yes, yes they will. they've announced at most of their european dates that they'll be back in the new year, January and Febuary. Shazam.

dave mustaine · 24-08-2003 3:58pm

Shazam is right,the point's a much better venue anyway you get a bit closer to the band and thats always cool!

The Point is an awful venue, a real dive. Stupid queues for a drink, can't bring it into the arena itself, and above all the acoustics are crap.

Dark, soulless kip.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 24-08-2003 4:59pm

stupid queues for a drink? as opposed to the nice short reasonable ones they had at the RDS on wednesday?

therecklessone · 24-08-2003 5:14pm

Now now, don't put words in my mouth...

Actually, the wait for a beer in the RDS was quite short when we went up. The bar at the far end of the food and drink and jax area.

feylya · 24-08-2003 5:16pm

The tent that was only doing Miller had pretty much no queue. There was only two or three in front of me.

Febuary

from a very reliable source

Fair enough it isnt great but do you only go to gigs because the of the venue? if thats the case you've probably been at a few s club 7 concerts

honru · 24-08-2003 9:23pm

Woah, I wasn't expecting them to return so quickly. This comes as a suprise seeing as they've have just played to most of their audience. Nevertheless, I may go again - it was a great gig. Hey, they might play Whiskey this time.

NME has quoted James Hedfield, who "looks foward to their winter return to the UK, promising simple "December Indoors." This is probably when the proposed Irish date is set. After that its February at the earliest.

dave mustaine · 24-08-2003 10:01pm

Exactly, Ireland has always been a dependable crowd for metallca they constantly filled out the point why go to england and not here? they'll definitely play here

There you go again...

You were decent enough on the other thread, then you throw this crap at me? I was responding to your original point (pardon the pin):

Consideration of the venue does play a part for me, now anyway. I've seen most of my favourite bands play here, so unless its an absolute must see gig, I don't bother with some places.

And let us not forget, the Point has played host to manys an S-Club style act over the years...

dave mustaine · 25-08-2003 6:51pm

Ok I admit it, fair enough I did contradict myself

dave mustaine · 25-08-2003 6:53pm

I just noticed! pardon the "pin" should'nt that be pun? I know it's petty but I needed to point it out (pardon the pun!

No, I deliberately put it in there so you would have something concrete to throw back at me...:p

feylya · 25-08-2003 7:26pm

Touche! And on your 500th post too.

therecklessone · 25-08-2003 7:43pm

Damn, missed that...

Ah well, onwards and upwards (to 1000):D

dave mustaine · 25-08-2003 9:07pm

Ok man relax, it's not a bitch contest. CALM DOWN

therecklessone · 25-08-2003 9:12pm

Perfectly calm my good man, and yourself?;)
