    I'd kill to see them in a small venue like that.

    please let this be happening!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 841 ✭✭✭JBnaglfar


    First I've heard but, if true, I would definitely be there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Nailz


    If this happens I'll do my happy dance.

    Not their biggest fan, but would certainly be tempted

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 805 ✭✭✭metzengerstein


    it would be great,

    thats the 2nd rumour ive heard this week though maybe some people are getting hopefull but i hope both of these happen ,someone posted in the gigs section on m.i about slayer and fintroll playing the olympia ,and now megadeth playing . slayer date is possible looking at their tour dates and megadeth if it was around the time as the mystery slayer gig ,i think they have nothing on then either .

    slayer date isnt mentioned anywhere else though .

    The mods are pretty lax with letting people add a gig so I'm 99.99% sure that was someone taking the piss. Would love to see Megadeth in the Olympia but after the big four rumour I'm not getting my hopes up just yet.

    im sure of that too,but one can hope :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,581 ✭✭✭Testament1


    I'd be absolutely delighted if this happens...seen them twice before and I'm still sickened I missed them in Cork playing Rust In Peace.
    But so far its just a rumour so I wont be getting worked up about it until I see some proof.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,557 ✭✭✭Knifey Spoony


    So we don't get the Big 4, but might get a Big 1 instead? I'll take that. Would love to see them in a proper venue and not a tent in a carpark again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 841 ✭✭✭JBnaglfar


    If we get one of the big 4, hopefully its Megadeth.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 805 ✭✭✭metzengerstein


    they should have made a reuninion of clash of the titans .and left metalicrap out of it .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,949 ✭✭✭SouperComputer


    I'd nearly travel back home to see Megadeth at the Olympia.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,959 ✭✭✭✭scudzilla


    Doubt this is gonna happen, especially as the OP says he heard it from a mate who occasionally works at the venue


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 931 ✭✭✭aperture_nuig


    Would love this to happen, saw them at the priest feast and in cork, both cracking gigs. would be great to see them headlining indoors, especially off the back of a new album if Endgame was anything to go by!

    Misleading thread title is misleading

    :(

    Ah "the mate", the most reliable source for concert information in Ireland:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,366 ✭✭✭Star Bingo


    i'l tell you why they should be playing.. because theyre a hard rockin' band n they should come and play the olympia. they just should.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,072 ✭✭✭PeterIanStaker


    Not their biggest fan, but would certainly be tempted
    Same as! not going to get all happy unless its confirmed. Would also definitely go see Slayer.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 Buttoo


    Megadeth in Dublin....... ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, trying to breathe. Would save going to Sonisphere.................

    God damn it, I thought that this thread was bumped for a reason. :mad:

    Almost 20 years to the day (1/4/1991) they would have just started their set after Alice in Chains had finished up.

    I'd imagine it was an excellent gig - to think both Layne and Starr are now gone and what Alice In Chains has since become

    Although I do like Will

    Yeah Will is cool, my brother got backstage at Marley Park a couple of years ago (the lucky huar!) and he said William seemed like a cool guy, said he was out watching all the bands and was loving it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 344 ✭✭Chuchu


    Ohh shivers... I just dip in and out of this forum as an oldtimer :D saw this thread and post re 20 years to the day (two days ago) that Megadeth played Point, I was there, but mainly to see AIC... then realised it's Layne's anniversary today... RIP Layne.
