    Sky One was on and an ad came on for it, this had better be true, even though it was an advertisement, I also know this will get moved to the Gigs/Events section, but for the people who don't go there on a regular basis and don't check religiously just for an update on the Maiden gig, this one's for you!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,382 ✭✭✭Motley Crue


    draffodx is right! the craic is well worth it, and as a matter of tradition, turbenegro are gettin bottled! :D memories ;)

    If anyone bottles Turbonegro im going to poke their eyes out with my cock and skull**** em. They are the only real band on the bill, and I'm gladly paying 65e to see them.

    OMG I couldn't believe this when I read it. I mean of course people are intitled to their own opinion of course that means everyone part from you, you are Idot. Why do you think Iron Maiden are headlining? **** sake you must be out of your mind :O Plus if you like **** music why bother taking the ticket from a loyal Iron Maiden fan. I knew this would happen when manson was named as support. All these little new metal gob****es would snap up tickets. I bet when you asked for a ticket you asked for a ticket to manson.

    I hope you asked for your ticket in a ticketmaster, as it would of been funny to see you ask for a manson ticket in the sound celler and to see the man leap over the counter and slap ya in the face ;)

    Heh and by the way I dont see what Iron maiden beening english has to do with their music at all you knobend.

    Also if you dont like Iron Maiden you could always f*ck off home when manson is finished as you obviously dont deserve to see as good a band as Iron Maiden anyway :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,272 ✭✭✭✭Atomic Pineapple


    didnt they burn a tri colour that was thrown up on the stage at the gig in the point?
    any band deserves to get battered out of it for doin that!
    but then manson deserves to get battered out of it because he's an image driven twat and
    turbonegro (SP??) deserve to get battered out of it for being just plain crap...

    so its all good :)

    Oh, for f*ck's sake, not this again.

    It never happened.

    Seriously, this has been discounted so many bloody times on Boards.ie alone it's making me sick.

    And for the record, anyone near me who boos at the union jack if/when they play The Trooper shall get a good smack for being an idiot.

    okay
    1. who's Turbo-thingy?
    2. Manson rock big-time.
    3. Maiden too rock.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Turbonegro are an odd Norwegian band. Not sure what I should describe their music as to be honest. Haven't heard a lot of it and I don't think they're a great idea. Then again, neither are Manson. Unfortunately, grandmaster what'shisface has a point when he says a lot of people will be going for Manson. If Maiden start getting abuse though, particularly if the Union Jack gets brought out, from all those ****ty little Manson-moshers there's going to me muchos head-stampings from me.


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


    There's a simple solution. Everybody bring Union Jacks and when the Trooper is played, wave them. That should have enough people stunned into silence as to ensure no booing :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Le Rack


    good point.

    Most accurate description I ever heard for turbonegro was "Homosexual Psycho Punk"

    Gonna be such a divide at this gig - One side hairy old skoolers with sleeveless denim jackets, the other a sea of moody teens, heavy eyeliner, black miniskirts and frowns, then a small section of topless moustached guys in leather pants.


    Needless to say I'll be perving on some Manson goth chick.

    seriously comtemplating this idea, and then if someone does boom, they get strangled with a nice union jack, and i'll have to bottle manson and turbofagro for not being good enough to support maiden

    Well aren't you the height of towering intellect :rolleyes:

    I think you're missing the tiny ittsybittyLITTLE F*CKING POINT that Iron Maiden are actually British and that some of their songs deal with historical events involving their country.

    I'm sure there's somone somewhere in the rest of the world at this moment saying "I can't stand those Irish lovin' ba$tard$ U-fu*kin-2" :rolleyes:

    Yawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn.

    People, People, Please lets stop fighting, and get one thing straight. Iron Maiden: Age-old Metal legends, 65 million album sales and HEADLINING the concert in the RDS.

    Marylin Manson: Disturbed psychopathic Depressive who likes to rip apart puppies at his concerts and dress like nu-age death. NOT HEADLINING the MAiden concert in the RDS.

    Turbonegro: Upcoming weird post-hardcore, metal band. Norwegians.( that should say all about their music)

    Lets face facts: Mansons people will be out numbered by the TRUE rockers, any of them step out of line they get their heads smacked in. The maiden people will have to act as bouncers. Peoples Tickets will have IRON MAIDEN plus special guests written on them not Marylin Manson. Im going to see maiden and amen for that
    :cool:

    sorry never knew whether it happened or not,
    people have there own opinions if someone doesnt happen to agree with yours why does that make them an idiot, in there eyes you may be an idiot.
    Its a massive flaw in the world I know and everyone should just be one thing and not be allowed to be individuals at all :)

    The union jack is not a welcome sight in this country thats the way it is, i agree booing at someone waving it is a bit stupid but its better than them making a bomb and using it to blow up innocent people,

    in conculusion i'm just bored and mouthing off random crap so dont take much notice of my post :)

    There seems to be a lot of saps going to this gig. Seriously, grow the hell up and just enjoy the day. Why does everyone need to start getting into tribal mode?

    "Us Manson fans will jolly well smash your noggins!"

    "No! No! No! Us Maiden fans were rocking out like rocking horses before you were born."

    "Is that a Union Jack?"

    Saps.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,658 ✭✭✭Patricide


    Everyone should ****ing learn to calm down stop lableing all manson fans as pussy wannabee goths and stop lableing mainden fans as old men that have past their peak,

    Everyone knows that iron maiden are total legends of metal and if it werent for them who knows maby manson mightnt be here today, im not saying that manson was inspired by their music im just saying that the people who did inspire manson might have loved maiden back in the day.

    Cant the maiden and manson fans just get along there both kickass bands that both deserve great respect, as for turbonegro there a breath of wierd fresh air but still cool none the less.

    my only gripe with manson is that he pretty much alienated a load of his core fans with his last album, i wouldnt call it selling out cuz manson is still doing music HE loves.All manson needs is to bring twiggy back thatl knock a bit of sense into him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,149 ✭✭✭✭Lemming


    I rather like Manson (although I *am* going for Iron Maiden). I just dislike these pictionary retards that seem to come out of the woodwork about Iron Maiden being British whenever they're due to play a gig here.

    Like the muppets that whinged & booed over the flying of the Union Jack during "The Trooper" last time around - completely ignoring what the song is actually about and that the flag is part of the song.

    As I said ... "pictionary retards", to quote Bill Hicks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,618 ✭✭✭Civilian_Target


    Same - I'm really going to a Maiden concert but I'm looking forward to his show and some of his music is actually good.

    I actually couldn't believe that people booed during The Trooper at the last Maiden gig, and scarier still that some of them were my friends and they actually attempted to justify their opinion. Maiden are British lads, and lots of Irish people died in WWI under the Union Jack, which is what that songs about. Aside from anything else, booing is disrespectful to them. Seriously tempted to bring a union jack, as per above!


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 17,075 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzo


    wish i could go to this gig but I can't as i'll be in spain, but if I was going it would be for Maiden and I'd have a union jack with me too.

    Sorry, just being pedantic. The song isn't about WWI. Paschendale is abotu WW1. The Trooper is pre-WW1

    is it alright if i go to see marilyn manson,
    wouldnt want to get my head smashed in by one of iron maidens bouncers...

    I might turn up early to hear Turbo**** out of curiosity. Manson should be interesting although I'm not really a fan. Maiden should be great, like they were last time in the point.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,655 ✭✭✭Ph3n0m


    Ah I am so glad I am not going to this **** up of a "rock event" (to quote the TV ads)

    So many ignorant people getting worked up over each act....



    ... when we all know that Maiden rules all, Manson and Turbonegro should be nowhere on the bill

    .... old school rules all

    ... Manson was influences by Depeche Mode (while a quality band, doesnt give Manson an excuse for being crap, IMO)

    ....Doc J + Union Jack + angry pricks = much laughter

    ....angry hot looking girls (over 17) there for Manson deserve to be leered after

    ....sarcasm doesnt really work on the internet anymore

    ....i like ducks

    Seriously though - I am glad I aint going, 65 for Maiden, I just cant justify in spending

    Could you please stop? people might read your post and think all maiden fans are like you.

    I want to insult you so much but I do read this forum a lot and and you just aren't worth getting a ban.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 153 ✭✭ShreddedHumans


    Turbonegro have been around since 1992. They are legends.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,272 ✭✭✭✭Atomic Pineapple


    everyone has different tastes some people like this some people like that, no one is gonna like the same thing if we did well life would be fairly boring, arguing about 3 bands which are all different in there own way is pointless.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,618 ✭✭✭Civilian_Target


    Yeah - people who aren't payin €65 clearly have never seen Maiden before - they're rather ****ing good.

    I had always thought it was about WWI but you're right - its about the charge of the light brigade according to Wikipedia. So, maybe not so many Irish people died...
