well i wasnt and i dont regret it.
personally i find lars "lets hit this snare as hard as i can" approach to drumming a little less than inspired.

Jaysus can ye not give Lars a break for once?! Leave the guy alone! Let's see you come up with some of the stuff he did. It's much easier to criticise rather than appreciate.

Am I the only one to see the irony in that?

I was at it and I can safely say that both Slipknot and Metallica sucked.

I was at it, went to see metallica, enjoyed it. They played a decent set imho. Few laughs. Some people get to wound up by it all

@Santaclaws http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=169544 the concert was discussed there already.

Okay I do therecklessone...my bad! All I meant was that so many times before I've seen guys just starting out playing complaining about how easy some of Lars's stuff was to play, and I asked them to come up with better. They usually either drew a blank or cursed at me and walked off...it was just a natural reaction for me.

Was there this year, and last. Preferred last years concert as there was more (and better) bands there. Still quite a good concert though.

3) Every time they play its beside my house
4) They both attract crowds of muppets who think they're mad
5) Lars sucks :eek:

all fair points i didnt go this year, went last year, because i felt they put on a lazy show, how can you come to ireland and NOT play whiskey, must they stick to their strict same-song-same-order on every show plan but i heard it was better this year sortof wished id gone

probably be back next year though

Please people, leave Lars alone for once. What the hell is so bad about him? If it wasn't for him we might never have heard of Metallica, since after Cliff died (RIP) Lars took over the business end of things. Sure he's a cocky pr*ck, but you sometimes need that in music. Please tell me what's so wrong about him?

Well, he's a dickhead and a crap drummer. True Metallica died with Cliff.

Goddamn people listen to some real metal before you go licking Lars' balls :rolleyes:

Okay dude, are you a drummer first of all? Also I don't like licking balls, but you might since you suggested it. And how did 'true' Metallica die with Cliff? What about the other 3, are they not the 'true' Metallica? Would it be right to say that 'true' Metallica went when Mustane was kicked out? I think not.
Finally, how do you know he's a dickhead? Have you ever met the guy? He mustn't be that bad if he's still in the band.

On a side note Pornapster, Bon Jovi kick ass!

I've seen him live actually. He put on a better show than Metallica did two weeks ago too.

Also, does anyone else find it funny that on Garage days, Kirk or someone had "Kill Bon Jovi" stuck on the headstock on his guitar and then they turn into a band that more or less resembles Bon Jovi, along with hiring Bon Jovi's producer. Fucking hypocrites.

LOL I love all this crap that comes out when Metallica play. This years concert was better than last years but the RDS sucks for sound. Metallica were good, Slipknot sucked and poor old Lost Prophets were just pelted with plastic water bottles and didn't make any impression at all on me.

I went to see Metallica because I enjoy the vibe I get from seeing them. I think its the fifth time I have seen them. The first concert was the best, it was the Black Album tour back in the early nineties (I think 1991) in the Point and I couldn't hear properly for a week afterwards (now thats a concert !!!).
