Metal Night

c - 13

Metal night in Drohan's bar this thursday tight for anyone who is interested.

Celtic Punch, Serum and ..... um ....... someone who's name escapes me at the moment playing.

Might as well support what little metal scene there is in waterford.

AdMMM

I hovered over the thread link in the forums and it got as far as Celtic, thought the next word was gonna be frost

Yeah I might pop a long. What time is it starting at?

c - 13

Celtic Frost in drohans :eek: ..... I wish

Not sure, im not actually affiliated with drohans in any way, just thought i'd put it up.

I'll probably head along about 9 - 9.30 myself anyway.

christophicus

yeah i will probably go along too,do the have people on the doors there and are they too strict on age?

c - 13

So did anyone else go to this last night ?

christophicus

A major crap i thought it was on tonight(friday night) damn it to hell im really pissed of now.Was it good?did the bands play well?

c - 13

There were supposed to be three bands playing -
SERUM
SIRUCCO and
CELTIC PUNCH

It started later than expected, with SERUM (cork band, young enough guys) opening - great energy, AMAZING drummer, very metallica infulenced I would think from their sound. Also threw out an excellent "Fear of the dark" for anyone heading up wednesday.

SIRUCCO up next. Waterford based band. No vocalist, plain instrumental. Excellent stuff too - hard to describe exactly how they sounded but personally I feel they were tending towards the death metal edge of things. I'd love to hear their sound with some vocals though.

Got SERUMS demo CD and getting SIRUCCOS tomorrow.

CELTIC PUNCH didnt end up playing, I dont know why, could have been 'cos it was running late ? I was told there were problems the last time it was on with neighbours calling the cops because of the noise levels !!

The bar itself isnt **ideal** for live music IMO simply because of the layout and there wasnt that much of a crowd, still had a great time though - and ill definatly be going again next month.

In the meantime though if your looking for metal - keep an eye on NINETEEN, i think theyre doing a monthly metal night too.

christophicus

What time did the first band start at?Was there a cover charge?was there someone on the door watching for youngins? Wheres this NINETEEN?

AdMMM

19 is on Michael St. opposite Pure, the "urban clothing" shop.

btw, where is Drohans I was there on Thursday wondering where it was because I remember passing it a few days beforehand

christophicus

Agree totally - turnout wasnt huge the last night in drohans - were ya there yourself ?

christophicus

Ok did anyone go to drohans last saterday?i couldnt,were there many metal bands or just cerberus?

c - 13

Nope, didnt make it either but from the posters I seen around it looks like they were.
There seems to be a lot of stuff on there this month, was looking at the poster in 4 star the other day.
Next metal night is thursday the 29th september. Doesnt look like any bands are confirmed as yet.

Omega Dawn productions run the metal night as far as i know. Cant find a web page for them.

Here's drohans official page - I think it has contact details on it.

No idea, i passed there last night and there were no listings up. No idea whos playing, but i'll be there anyway

Beer is Life

Ì came down from New Ross for this, and it was only a DJ set! I thought it would be a few local bands, was well disappointed.

christophicus

that really sucks you should come down when they actually have sme bands playing,what bands was the dj playing?

c - 13

I couldnt belive it when i got in.
I was expecting bands - not some half arsed DJ.
At least it explains why there were no band listings up :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Beer is Life

christophicus
