Awful pity they're not doing a regular one here too. Will try for that Etihad one.

Of all the dates on there, why in the name of God would you go to Manchester on a Tuesday?!

Dire support.

Oh actually shortest straw description seems to match that of gold circle.

Ghost are really good live. We'll get a great show from them too.

Never heard of the first lot but Ghost are brilliant and am really looking forward to seeing them.

Few more acts TBC too

Must check out support. Keep seeing people say good things about Ghost live. Organisers expect to announce two or three more, but I presume they'll be further down the bill, so probably not very big names. Time to shelve those dream lineup thoughts

Hardwired set is good though if it's the same that they're playing this year. I assume we'll get Whiskey as one of the interchangeable songs that they play from Garage Inc.

Slane itself is a bit of a pain, but I enjoyed it once I was there (only the once for the mega RHCP year). Would be cool to see Metallica in that setting.

I had always avoided Ghost, just because their image didn't appeal to me! Finally had a listen to them last night and I must say they are pretty good!!

I know there usually is more than 2 support bands, GnR had 3 (pretty average) bands before them last year.
I think they need another 'Big' band to sell a few more tickets, will probably wait until after Fridays sales to see how its selling.

Won’t get dark until around 10pm that time of the year so most of the gig will be in daylight/twilight.

Have been the last two times at slane but fairly certain it's kicks off about half 2 no? So you'd expect another 2 at least. Thought kaiser chiefs were brilliant before the foo fighters in 2015, I like hozier too so that line up was enjoyable for me. Wasn't killed on Royal blood at gnr last time but they've a big following in fairness. Missed the other support acts as out bus got lost on the day.

Catchy af the last 2 albums especially, I only got into them in the last year or so and them supporting Metallica is real special for me.

Me too, I've done it twice, horrendous weather in 2015 for the Foo Fighters, one great day and one crap day for G n R last year so I'm deserving of some good weather karma for the third time camping there

so about 100 with all the charges

max service charge is €6.85, the olympia & 3arena might lash on another €1 salt in the wound fee, but slane should not.

So €96.35 online.

Might be already posted but some presale dates here

Love Metallica but up until recently I really thought they were past their sell by date. Recent shows have proven me wrong! But Lars...I'm a pro drummer at the weekends and listening to that dude is painfully bad. I wouldn't mind but he does have it but stopped practicing in the mid 1990's.

So a semi pro drummer then?

Don't fancy the 200 quid pit ticket. The idea of being outside it is a bit much for my poor brains to handle, because I gravitate towards hopping along and singing every word. I know I probably shouldn't but I get a bit disheartened and narky if I'm up fairly close to the stage at a gig and the people around me just have their arms folded/talking/on the phone. Being guaranteed to be a good kick around length back from the stage doesn't suit me at all.

We're going to Download for practically the same price and I'll probably lunge into the pits of 20 different bands of varying fame and quality. I'm too spoiled by that set up!

EDIT: code has been snapped up now.

I have a presale code to give away. If anyone wants it: The first boards.ie member quoting my post will get it via PM.

As we told you a few months back, we'll be returning to Europe for a stadium run in the summer of 2019! We're getting closer to announcing the dates but we wanted to get a jump on getting you your presale ticket code for the Fan Club presale beginning on Tuesday, September 25.

Legacy Member Presale Begins:
Tuesday, September 25 at 10 AM CEST

Fifth Member Presale Begins:
Tuesday, September 25 at 11 AM CEST

Both presales will end 72-hours later or when presale tickets sell out.

There will be a two-ticket limit per show. If additional Fan Club members live in your household, please use separate credit cards to place additional ticket orders to avoid any accidental order cancellations.

Have you ever been to a Metallica gig?

Is it just me or is it doubtful it will sell out on Friday?! I really can't afford to buy any more tickets before Christmas!
