    ^^^ Avoid his forum like the plague. You'll have me to deal with there!!

    The thing about this forum is that metal/rock is so diverse that people's definitions of rock vary a bit too greatly. At least, that's my theory anyway.

    or maybe because most of the ppl view here cba posting cause they're too stoned?

    Well I'm sick of waiting for the next Boards beers to meet some of yiz. How about meeting up to go to a gig together?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,598 ✭✭✭ferdi


    dorans (yes i know) - ska gig tomorrow night (friday 21st), i know its not metal, but i'll be going.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    I'll take it you'll all be heading to Iron Maiden?

    That would be the best meet-up, I should think.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 975 ✭✭✭j0e9o


    well if ure heading up to a gig in the north pm me or post it and me and the lads will meet u


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 658 ✭✭✭xx


    Don't think I'll be heading to Iron Maiden, AW. Was going to head to Ozzy, but since the little stuttering twat cancelled, thats shafted that then. Next gig will probably be Monster Magnet in january, but watch this space.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 398 ✭✭pyramid man


    well it was great up to a month ago but now it has gone downhill.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Well as someone pointed out, it's the same old threads that keep popping up. I can recall 3 such threads set up about Tool since I joined. One is enough godamnit!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,618 ✭✭✭Civilian_Target


    Yeah, but on the other hand, this group is the proud owner of what is probably the largest single thread on boards.ie


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    It's also in the top ten most active boards, so if this board is getting dead, I fear for the other boards!

    So, anyone care to meet up at Maiden?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,719 ✭✭✭Ruaidhri


    Ithink the root(s) of the problem is
    a) Too many pre-pubescent moaney gits.
    b) Rock and Metal are NOT the same thing.

    As for b...well i dont think rock and metal will ever mix. most (proper) metallers dont like rock and all the rockers dont like most of the metals.

    That and AngelWhore has cooties!

    What rubbish!
    In all fairness, there's plenty of people who enjoy both rock and metal, and there's plenty of cross-over going on.

    Yeah, fair enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,618 ✭✭✭Civilian_Target


    mmmmm..... Maiden...... It's going to be so good...

    But on another note, I don't see your point about metal/rock, I quite like both (depending how you define them) as well as classical, and even some jazz, country and the guy upstairs plays some damn-good. It comes down to the fact that there's a lot of very good music in all genres, but very rarely in the mainstream, which is a shame.

    I shall be there with (Hell's) Bells on, and lots of people. I think I owe you a drink, in any case. :)

    Where's the nearest bar to the Point?

    And I love rock and I love metal. AC/DC and Iron Maiden are two of my favourite bands of all time. Crossover is GOOD. Stops things getting stale.
