    far from being the puppet i taught he was, he can really give these guys a run for their money in his political beliefs. check this out, and imagine Green Day being THIS politically aware

    Ill be there and irish band glyder are supporting too so i get 2 great bands for the price of one below is one of the setlists from this tour so far kinda short but seems like a good show

    Manchester Academy 2, UK - 28th October 2006

    - Intro: The End
    1. On Your Knees
    2. Hate To Love Me
    3. L.O.V.E. Machine
    4. Wild Child
    5. Widow Maker
    6. Sleeping In The Fire
    7. Arena Of Pleasure
    8. The Headless Children
    9. The Idol
    10. I Wanna Be Somebody

    Encore:

    11. Chainsaw Charlie
    12. Blind In Texas

    Can't say I'm too keen on that setlist..

    I always hated Hate to love me, and I never really did like Blind in texas. Chainsaw charlie is a bit blah too. Widow maker seems like an odd choice but it'll be cool to hear.

    I know thats only a few songs, but with the setlist being as short as it is..:confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 630 ✭✭✭MagnumForce


    Jesus, thats a short set, well theyre apperantly changing the setlist all the time so hopefully it will get a bit more interesting, theres nothing from after The Crimson Idol except Hate To Love Me and they could have picked a better song from Unholy Terror. I hear theyve been playing Mercy from the new album at some gigs so it would be good to hear that, and maybe something from KFD.

    Anyway, the point I was going to make is that up until recently on the site it stated Jaded (all girl, all rocking, all leather) were supporting, then Glyder announced they were supporting aswell, and now the WASP site says Jaded and a power metal band called Triosphere are supporting, not mentionng Glyder at all, so whats the deal? are there three bands supporting??? cos even though the bands supporting are pretty good, thats a bit much.

    Mind you, if there are four bands playing, at least its finally a gig worth the money.


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


    3. L.O.V.E. Machine

    While I like the sound of hearing this song, I also agree its an extremely small setlist, and the fact that the new track from their forthcoming album Domination isnt going to be played (they played it in Bulgaria) is a bit of a let down


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,468 ✭✭✭Tazz T


    Reports form earlier shows say Blackie and the crew are on top form and sounding better than ever.

    I've seen 'em loads of time since the 80s and will be in attendance. Always guaranteed a great show when Blackie's involved.

    Well, it seems Glyder have no idea about this anyway, as far as they know it's just them and Jaded supporting. Have emailed Raglane.com asking them, cos i like to know what going on like.

    I've just been talking to someone about this and apparently the Tripod isn't ready and they're rushing around trying to find another venue.

    If this is the case, they've left it a bit late.

    ****in hell, how hard can it be like, and why would the owners of the Tripod go ahead and accept bookings inside a window of time when they obviously wouldnt know if they'd be ready or not! especially a live band like WASP with loads of equipment, its not like a DJ or something who just has decks really. theyve postponed the gig on tomorrow night as it says on the Tripod site, you'd think that at the same time they'd announce the postponement of they following nights gig aswell because if its not ready for a DJ to play on Friday, how can it be ready for three or so bands to play the next night? If this is cancelled, i will be very annoyed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 630 ✭✭✭MagnumForce


    Emailed the Tripod, asking them, got this response:
    Hi Adam, it is still uncertain…I have forwarded your email to the promoter who will be in touch with you shortly to advise.

    Kind Regards,

    Clare

    Unfortunatly Ive already emailed Raglane.com and got no response yet. you'd think that the venue would be the one with the answers as to whether or not they were playing there. Obviously then, they arn't playing there and are waiting to know where if anywhere they actually are playing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 630 ✭✭✭MagnumForce


    Well, Ticketmaster.ie arnt selling tickets any more, rumor has it it was moved to the Crawdaddy, dispite the fact Crawdaddy only holds about 250 people. But apperantly The promotors, Raglane.com, still arnt sure, apperantly the band arn't happy with the arrangments, neither would fúckin I be!!!

    Christs sake! what a fúck up!

    Christs sake! what a fúck up!

    You got that right. Raglane's site still says nothing and just advertises the gig http://www.raglane.com/wasp.html

    http://www.wasparmy.com/
    Official site says nothing
