    yeah, it must be..they're giving clues as to who it is during the course of the week.

    Clue 1: Their debut album was recorded within a week and the lead singer played all of the instruments for it.

    Has to be Foo Fighters!

    Yeah, it was a great gig! The Ambassador wasnt even full!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 197 ✭✭violenza


    indeed:D Like rats just let out of a cage.... They hadn't played in about 6 months, played like fookin animals songs were back to back with hardly any banter all doors were open because the place was a sweaty mess...absolutely savage...and free:-) the witness show wasn't as savage they'd obviously used all their super powers in the ambasador. definately one to remember:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,585 ✭✭✭honru


    I remember this, great gig at the time. Anyone see themselves on the DVD? My head's in there somewhere.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,609 ✭✭✭comet


    I had 2 tickets for it and unfortunately I still have them, turned out i couldn't make it on the night and it was too late to give them to someone else....oh well

    yea, me too, I was on my way to foofighters.com and ringing a mate to tell him. how dumb am I. I know the whole "Witness" thing should have gave it away but I thought it was somethin' else.

    Doh

    Jesus...that was 4 years ago! I remember it well, it was my first 'proper' concert. And what a concert it was too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,881 ✭✭✭Toast


    For an encore why not find some threads about the Tool sfx concert to bump to raise more peoples hopes?

    I gave my tickets away to this as I wanted to be fresh and alert for Witnness the next day. It was the single worst festival Id ever been at.
