    Extremely f**king great gig.The sound was great,the mood was perfect.
    And i got one of Kerry Kings plecs.


    P.s. im goin tomorrow

    Slayer were great as usual but I was a bit disappointed with Mastodon, they were only on for 30 mins! I would have loved to see more of them. They gave it loads even though they did have a bit of a "support slot sound". It looked like one of the guitarists was having trouble with his amp at the start as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,316 ✭✭✭✭the_syco


    Damn sweet gig. Saw Stevenk, and also I think Matthewthebig. Matthewthebig: hows the shoulder? You came down pretty hard from that crowd surfing!

    Anyhoo's, got 2 disposable camera's, one for each band. Wasted the second one too soon, as there was some lovely shots to be taken later on, but ah well. I hope to get into town on Wednesday to get them put onto a CD, then I'll post them up Wednesday night.

    =-=

    The first band were pretty good, but the energy from Slayer was great. Angel of Death, [size=-1]Mandatory Suicide, [/size][size=-1]Necrophiliac, [/size][size=-1]Raining Blood, to name but a few.[/size]..

    The stage was where the "slope bit" would usually be, and the mosh pit stretched from the left to the right in a good few of the songs.

    Actually, think I saw you there the_syco. When I was queuing to get in there was a tall lad with a shaved head except for a bit on the back outside having a smoke. Looked a bit like the pic that used to be in your signature.

    It was a shame all those young lads were stuck outside wasn't it? Does anyone know if they got in in the end?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 578 ✭✭✭Son_of_Belial


    They didn't. They were underage.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 578 ✭✭✭Son_of_Belial


    I was working security at it - I was on the disabled ramp beside the gent's toilet's on the ground floor. Black hair with glasses. I'll probably be posted there tomorrow as well so come say hi if anyone's going tomorrow!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 578 ✭✭✭Son_of_Belial


    Oh, and if I was a prick to anyone I apologise. It's my job you see. It's nothing personal. ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,746 ✭✭✭0utshined


    That's a shame, there was a fair few of them hanging about.

    Probably all headed over to Fibbers. :D

    oh man, I was one of the last ppl inot the place but I was VERY close to Tom Araya (1 and a half ppl away) for the whole gig!!!!! I pity those ppl who queued for hours and were behind me! its an asshole thing to say, but I am ****faced! so I don't care, and a mate of mine caught Jeff Hanneman's plek

    Ha ha,

    Actually security seemed friendly enough at it. Maybe I'm just getting old....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 578 ✭✭✭Son_of_Belial


    Lol, OK. I know I did yell at one or two people who wouldn't do as they were told, and it wasn't just because the music was so loud either!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,217 ✭✭✭Matthewthebig


    Man crowd sudfing then flipping off the fuc.king sercuity was so so so much fun!


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 9,654 Mod ✭✭✭✭mayordenis


    That was a bit amazing wasn't it?
    I had a seated ticket but we were more or less front row centre so it was absolutely fantastic.

    highlights anyone??

    i reckon its Dead Skin Mask,
    although all the big ones were fantastic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,217 ✭✭✭Matthewthebig


    highlight?

    all of it

    or me falling off the crowdsurf and ****ing up my back

    or my mate getting kicked out for being too "extreme"

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 214 ✭✭gokgok


    I'm in a bit of pain today. Great crowd. What was the story with the bouncers on the balcony shining the torch on people that got a bit excited. I thought they onlt did that in the point.

    Sound was ****e - typical Ambassador sound

    Mastadon - too short

    Slayer rocked

    Highlights - when the sound died before Dead Skin Mask and that they played "At Dawn They Sleep"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 82 ✭✭verdidnt


    That was my 5th time seeing them and also the best slayer gig i've been to. I was pretty surprised by the sound in the ambassador, I thought it was ok. Usually it's pretty bad and the volume is well low but it was cool last night.

    I thought for ages there were going to play the whole reign in blood album cos they hadn't played any songs from it until they played postmortem towards the end.

    Highlights for me were War ensemble, (Dave Lombardo is a legend!!), Dead Skin Mask, Silent Scream and born of fire.

    Was hoping they would play 'Live undead' but it was not to be


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,592 ✭✭✭Ancient1


    Wow.

    I'm still reeling ..... :)

    That's cos the security at the Ambassador last night also work the point. It attracts the attention of the other security guards on the ground like myself who can get to the spot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,707 ✭✭✭✭Mr. CooL ICE


    Damn me not having enough money for a ticket. Dunno when ill get the chance to see them now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,918 ✭✭✭Deadwing

    SLAYOOOOORRRRRR!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 578 ✭✭✭Son_of_Belial


    I'm working at it again tonight - I'll probably be posted where I was last night again, so if you see a smallish bouncer on the disabled ramp next to the gent's toilets on the ground floor with black hair and glasses, that's me, so come say hello, so long as you don't block the access to the ramp that is ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,918 ✭✭✭Deadwing

    You're welcome... Though to be honest there were so many pints left there that I couldn't keep track of who was who... Mental! I was shattered by the end of the night and can expect more of the same tonight! Grrr.

    Well I don't like people saying things about my mother. I'm not at all violent but comments disparaging my mother often get people punched.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,848 ✭✭✭✭Doctor J

    So you are often violent then?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 966 ✭✭✭RedRaven

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 578 ✭✭✭Son_of_Belial


    Hmm, see I'm not allowed to throw the first punch. I can throw you out though, how about that?

    Lol, no fair! No, I'm not. I guess I mean that the last person who said something about my mother got a dig. Which was a while ago mind you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 701 ✭✭✭sickle


    Son_of_Belial is asking for a hiding tonight,giving out your position to everyone on boards,tut tut! throw pints at him!!
    ill be working there too but i aint telling where i am. mwaaah!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,316 ✭✭✭✭the_syco


    One guy was walking up and down, and anybody that looked young, he said to them "Hi, are you over 18? I'm from MCD, and unless you have ID, you won't get in. It says so on your ticket!"

    And then there were the touts. One guy was walking up, asking for tickets. the next asking does anyone want a ticket. Truely comical when they walked side by side, one asking for tickets, the other offering them!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 578 ✭✭✭Son_of_Belial


    That's funny! Yeah, looks like there'll be a queue of <18s who won't be getting in. Oh dear.
