Slayer - June 13th

0utshined · 02-03-2005 10:21pm #1

I've just seen this announced in the upcoming gigs thread but can't find anything official on the web. Does anyone know if it's definitely happening or is it just rumour?

I hope it's true, I'd love to see them again, especially now they're doing the Reign in Blood set.

Oral Slang · 02-03-2005 11:04pm

This is the detail given on Metal Ireland... Not sure who's bringing them over though!

SLAYER
Plus special guests, Mastodon
June 13th 2005 - The Ambassador, Dublin

Tickets: 44.50 (inc booking fee) on-sale this Friday, March 5th from
Soundcellar, Ticketmaster and usual outlets.

Shiminay · 03-03-2005 2:02am

I'll be seeing them at this year's Fury Fest, but it's still tempting!

Mastodon are savage good too, wouldn't mind seeing them - I hope they come to France and save me the dilemma - full line up announced April 11th...

Edit:
Just saw this on Metal Ireland. Typical Irish rip-off prices though :mad:

cournioni · 03-03-2005 12:14pm

Yeah its on mcd.ie too. Tickets on sale from Friday, €44.50. I'd expect it to sell out in no time, just like Megadeth.

Ancient1 · 03-03-2005 1:36pm

Oh man, please not the Ambassador....i hope the venue changes.

Imagine Slayer at the Ambassador - remember the last Megadeth gig there?
Maybe this Slayer gig will be fully seated. And if you get up "the management reserves the right blah blah" to throw your ass out on the street.

Ph3n0m · 03-03-2005 1:40pm

i am laughing right now thinking how security with their magic torches are going to control the mayhem that Slayer always entices in a crowd

Zombienosh · 03-03-2005 1:42pm

I thought i read somewhere that tom couldnt sing anymore....... o well im gettin me some tickets!

That's the irony... live Slayer, notorious for slaying all in sight, at the Ambassador of all places! The security morons wont know what to do with themselves...

I thought i read somewhere that tom couldnt sing anymore

Trust me, he'll manage

Ph3n0m · 03-03-2005 1:49pm

you think if the crowd creates a major pit - we could security getting really brutal with the crowd?

Ancient1 · 03-03-2005 1:52pm

Actually it should be the other way around. Security mingling with the crowd at a SLAYER gig....hm....It's a question of stupidity vs. cojones.
They are the ones who'll need security.

Ph3n0m · 03-03-2005 1:57pm

well as you know, its seems only scum are hired (based on those who were used as "security" during Megadeth) - as they are very casual with the punches they throw and who they stand up against - and the crowd was nowhere near as "violent" or "rough" as Slayer

03-03-2005 2:00pm

F*ckin cool!!!!!

haha! thats the spirit.

Ancient1 · 03-03-2005 2:03pm

That's the thing man...Slayer is just pure brutality live, that's how it has always been. As for the security schmucks, boy are they in for a surprise.
They're not there to provide "security" for anything or anyone. They are more violent than anyone in the audience and then they delude themselves into thinking that terrorizing paying guests at a (METAL, ffs) gig is somehow security policy.

dellytots · 03-03-2005 2:11pm

13 of June!!!

Ah **** man its in da middle of the leavin cert :mad:

Yeah go ahead and laugh......

Ancient1 · 03-03-2005 2:13pm

Well, what's more important?

The leaving cert or the entire Reign in Blood album as encore?

Ph3n0m · 03-03-2005 2:29pm

oh you kids and your education - I remember when I was a youngster, studying by day, doing exams and then at night living the rock n roll lifestyle - and I still managed to get into college

I seriously doubt one gig is going to mess up your exams

dellytots · 03-03-2005 2:42pm

Pretty true. French n Biology are on the nxt day, when are they going to come in handy?? I should show up fresh from the mosh pit n see how I do.

MUCH rather go see Slayer.
Its going to sell out in a few minutes if its the ambassador tho.

What if you wanted to see Slayer in France

"Ou est Slayer et les bieres" - the only phrase you will ever need in France

Beekay · 03-03-2005 4:31pm

anyway if you don't know your french or biology by then you'll never know it.
which means im goin to slayer

Ronan|Raven · 03-03-2005 9:36pm

I have had tickets to and missedslayer 3 times i am sure as hell not missing this one!

SaXont · 03-03-2005 9:46pm

U can get them of ticketmaster.ie now!

Mayordenis has already purchased mine,Can't wait i see this as payment for missing megadeth

It wasn't me! · 03-03-2005 10:13pm

Linkage? I searched Ticketmaster and all I could find were dates for Donnington.

Kersh · 04-03-2005 10:49am

Ooooohhh Ill be there, they are savage live.

It wasn't me! · 04-03-2005 12:07pm

Yazzooo!!! Going. It's going to be so cool, and if those monkeys on the door try and stop me...

Tar.Aldarion · 04-03-2005 1:02pm

slayer in ireland england or france how can i choose! system and slipknot will be in england,suicidal tendencies and ppl will be in france.....and well i live in ireland..

Ph3n0m · 04-03-2005 1:58pm

I advise people to shop around - Ticketmaster - huge "handling" fee - Sound Cellar - a measly €1 extra on the ticket price - guess who I bought my tickets from

cournioni · 04-03-2005 3:28pm

Ticketmaster = Touts.

Got my tickets.

derrylahan · 04-03-2005 8:14pm

i'm 17, do yas think dey'll let me in?? should i chance getting tickets?
i really really want to go

It wasn't me! · 04-03-2005 8:25pm

Well I'm fifteen, I'm going, and if the monkeys at the door try and stop me, there will be... unpleasantness...

herobear · 04-03-2005 9:35pm

generally i think they'll eventually let you in, but just haul you upstairs(seated area) where they have better control of you and where you cant bring alcohol

It wasn't me! · 04-03-2005 9:42pm

Yeah, well, I don't look fifteen and I can handle myself so I think I'll be staying downstairs thankee very much.

Korvanica · 04-03-2005 9:43pm

Snif...stupid leaving cert!!!!

derrylahan · 04-03-2005 9:54pm

but i'll prob already be drunk, when i get there

It wasn't me! · 04-03-2005 10:12pm

Don't drink. They'll take less kindly to you if you're hammered, and if I have to choose between Slayer and alcohol... hell, that's not even a choice, that's a stupid rhetorical question!

0utshined · 05-03-2005 3:52pm

Oh yeah, Just picked up my ticket for this. It's going to be a killer show. Is there any word on the second support yet?

Oral Slang · 05-03-2005 6:57pm

Wouldn't bother trying to get in if you are under 18. Heard from a reliable source that there will be absolutely no under 18's let in without ID, after the fiasco at Megadeth. Presumably they'll ask everyone that looks in and around that age.

It wasn't me! · 05-03-2005 7:15pm

I'm going to try and if I hear anything like that, well... cards are easily enough doctored anyway.

crazy angel · 05-03-2005 7:17pm

luv em (hence the sig) ill be there!!!!

jmc · 05-03-2005 7:43pm

Checked this with Brian who booked them for The Ambassador and you'll definitely be refused without valid over 18s ID unfortunately.

"Strictly Over 18s, ID Essential. No Entry Without Valid Over 18s ID (Drivers Licence, Passport, Garda Age Card)" from mcd.ie web.

I was really disappointed that I couldn't go, what with my Leaving Cert and all...but knowing that I couldn't have got in anyway makes me feel a whole bunch better

It wasn't me! · 05-03-2005 10:42pm

Not me. I've got to find some way to fake a pretty official looking ID now by the sound of things. I'm not missing it. That's for sure.

qz · 06-03-2005 11:20am

Did anybody else see Slayer when they played Ozzfest a few years back? I was only 11 at the time, so I didn't know what the fúck hit me!

Ph3n0m · 06-03-2005 12:28pm

well then you have never seen the intensity and fury of Slayer up close and personal - that is simply quite a treat for the eyes and ears

No, I'm saying that I did go see them, it was mental.

Matthewthebig · 06-03-2005 2:13pm

they say that about all gigs. The id thing that is

It wasn't me! · 06-03-2005 2:46pm

Yeah but usually not with such vehemence. They actually seem serious about this one.

Matthewthebig · 06-03-2005 3:09pm

how is it more vehement?

Karl Hungus · 06-03-2005 3:21pm

Well, I think I'll be going just for Mastodon alone. Oh, and of course, Slayer might be alright

Slayer - June 13th
