    the date isn't completely finalised yet - but pretty much, as it's highly unlikely they'd be able to move their slot at Donnington to accomodate having this gig on the 10th......

    looking forward to seeing who's supporting.....

    also a huge thing for Dublin Metal Events, hopefully this draws a big crowd.......

    aye - but the Ambassador...sheesh


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 246 ✭✭psilocybe


    Anyone know when tickets are going on sale?


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


    well if there is no word on ticket prices - I think its a safe bet that ticket release date hasnt been set at all

    it's still not 100%.......so hold the auld horses there......


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


    aye DME hasnt confirmed it - although opeth.com does have the date listed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,702 ✭✭✭bounty_hunter


    Why do all the decent metal bands coming over here keep playing the fecking Ambassador?*


    *Alright, "a lot" of the "decent" (respective to personal opinion) metal bands who've been here recently/are coming soon. For those of you who might be inclined to start an argument over something like that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,550 ✭✭✭NIBBS


    I'll post the details here when they are up on MetalIreland, unless they are already here.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,043 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    Because other medium venues won't have a metal crowd for fear of damage.

    Thank you Thaedydal :) Typical that the most obvious answer was the one that didn't occur to me.

    So I guess I was dreaming when I saw Obituary in the music centre and Rollins Band in Vicar St?


    Granted that Rollins band was a few years ago

    Speaking of Obituary :) you do know they are playing again :)


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


    I can't wait!!!!! :D *explodes in glee*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,554 ✭✭✭herobear


    this is NOT confirmed yet, DME are trying to get them over the 10th, failing that the 12th is looking likely. but its still in the early stages, the OPETH webmaster apparently jumped the gun a little bit by announcing those dates when they're not 100% confirmed yet.

    as always check the official DME site or Metalireland for more upto date info...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,550 ✭✭✭NIBBS


    like I already said.......:D

    I think I'm going to have to pass on them this time. Going to Tool in Paris and possibly the Supersonic Festival in Birmingham so need to save my pennies.

    I hope its the 10th cause Saturday is much handier for me but yeah, great news!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,550 ✭✭✭NIBBS


    pretty much guaranteed they won't be playing the 10th - it's very unlikely they'll be able to change their slot in Donnington to play here ???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,552 ✭✭✭Steoob

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,514 ✭✭✭Dermo

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 687 ✭✭✭merlinsmerryman

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,550 ✭✭✭NIBBS


    Now confirmed for the 12th, in Vicar St.....
    excellent, much prefer Vicar St to the Ambassador....


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


    OPETH
    Plus Guests

    Vicar St., Dublin
    Monday 12th June 2006
    Tickets €30

    Also this is an All Ages gig. Beers will still be served in the bar area, just not allowed into the stage area. So you can still have a beer before and between bands etc......

    that's a great idea, much better than the hamfisted way it's done in the Ambassador.....
