    Yeah, I saw this earlier. Talk about an epic night if it does happen!!

    I think they are two of the most interesting bands in metal right now.

    Not sure if I'll be around for this, but I'll get to see them both in Rock Am Ring a couple of week before. Would love to see there own headlining show though. This and getting to see Sleep in Dublin would make for a brillant summer.

    Oh yes this is great news. Assume Mastodon will play The Hunter in full too in prep for Sonisphere. Was really hoping they hadn't forgotten about coming here on the touring cycle.

    Old Mastodon: yes. New Mastodon: no. (Unfortunately. I've tried to like their newer albums but they just don't click with me). I'll give this one a miss.

    Lad on metal ireland said something about swapping the gig nights for Katatonia.

    I saw that, here's hoping. Mastodon would be pretty savage in The Academy and I really want to see Gojira.

    From Mars To Sirius or The Link, don't bother with anything else.

    I disagree completely. I'd say From Mars and Way of All Flesh.

    There's something about the older albums I just can't get into.

    So StaticAge11, best to just listen to it all I guess :P

    I guess it's all just personal opinion. Crack the Skye is one of my favourite albums.

    Will do, I know plenty of Mastodon, seen them a few times with Metallica so I know what to expect!

    F*ck yes!!

    This will be one amazing night. I can't believe these two bands are going to be playing together.
    I saw Gojira in Whelans and it was immense. Haven't seen Mastodon since properly getting into them over Christmas. So this will be f*cking incredible.

    Dunno what you're lookin at but that link says 30.50.

    A bit steep for an Academy gig
