it's probably gonna be the smallest gig on their whole world tour, a very rare chance to see such an excellent live band in such an intimate setting

i use it in the sense of small, packed, close to the band, no loss in sound from being too far away etc

Motley Crue

Oh Yeah! 25euro, Lol, Omg.........

Vikings

Wonder how long it'll take to sell out, have to wait to 31st to get my ticket ... BAH!

dimerocks

blind guardian are made but i dunno if i can be bothered.

Vikings

S my ticket arrived last week ... *yay* :cool:

In case anyone hasnt heard them, some samples from 'Fly' are available here. Sound quality is quite cack so not going to pass judgement yet. Release has also been delayed a little from what I can tell.

moshmonkey666

only problem is that its not till September

but **** i cant wait!

tamlinek

I bought tickets num 84 and 85, if this is the amount of people goin there, will be sweet I prefer small crowd than 100 000-people gigs

Oral Slang

Just a reminder about this gig - 3 weeks today. Tickets sales are going well apparently, looking to be a sell out or near enough..

Karl Hungus

Anyone want to meet up for a few beforehand?

Ronan|Raven

If I must

Dermo

i have a sneaking suspicion that i might be out drinking before it

Roomic Cube

Cant wait for this!! Gonna be fantastic!! Anybody listen to any Astal Doors...sound alot like Iron Maiden at times!

yknaa

Sound even more like Dio/ Rainbow. Well worth getting there early for 'em -
early doors even

Roomic Cube

Does anyone know how long BG will have to play at this?

And what are you guys looking for in a setlist...I know they will play some of the new stuff now that the album should be out, I really wanna see some NiME and Imaginations stuff!

i'd be able to remember better if i hadnt been drinking so much last night.... :P

Húrin

**** I hope tix are still on sale.

Out Of Order

Cant wait for this, got my ticket the morning they came out, way back in January.

I'll be happy with any setlist, as long as the bards song is in there.

Karl Hungus wrote:

Yeah, I'm up for that.

Roomic Cube

aahhhh I'll only be 17 nearly 18, I still got a ticket but will I get in that is the question...this is seriously freakin me out now!

Húrin

Karl Hungus wrote:

Yes good idea. I don't know anyone else going. When and where do you think?

Dr. Baltar

I only heard about this today!!!!!


Is there any more tickets on sale??

I love Blind Guardian, I wish someone had told me about this earlier!

Ronan|Raven

Goto tickets.ie and get one there or sentinel records have them as do sound cellar.

Watching "Imaginations through the looking glass" again atm. Such a great live DVD. Going to be amazing to see Guardian in such a "cosy" venue!

Húrin

Anyone want to meet up beforehand?

Arucard

someone nominate a venue, and people can just head there before the gig, talk metal, drink like behooley (that guy could drink like a mother****er), and off to the gig we go.

i'll most likely be in Mahaffys, but if theres a group of people meeting in Bruxelles or somewhere i may be persuaded towards mass drinking....

tamlinek

Sure, when and where are we meeting? Just suggest the place

gline

cant wait for this.... its so close now....
where are you all meeting up first?

Ronan|Raven

Wont be in dublin myself till 5pm that day as have to do stuff that morning. But if anyone wants a pint at the venue look out for a tall fella with a beard and long hair wearing a guardian tshirt.. cant be to many of them :P

tamlinek

Ronan|Raven, I think we will not have any problems in finding you

I suggest Brussels (what a surprise) 4 p.m.
