Korn @ the Point. I went for Slipknot but Korn blew me away. Don't even listen to them but a savage live band

Paradise lost @ academy. First Dublin show in over a decade. Classic tunes and deadly new songs. Gregor Mackintosh plays guitar like no one else

Eagles of death metal @ Olympia. A master class in entertainment. Jesse Hughes was born to be on stage

Frank Grimes

Portal in Voodoo.

Deathcrusher in Vicar Street.

I'll probably vote for more when I've had a think about it, but definitely AC/DC at Lansdowne Road deserve a mention. As good as ever despite the annis horribilis and the relentless march of time.
