My dad's heading into Dublin around 6am, so I'm getting a lift in with him, so I might be heading to the o2 around 9am. xD If you see a guy with a army jacket with a Che Picture on the back of it, be sure to say hey!

Getting into Dublin at around half five. We have to get some food, and drop our stuff at the hostel, so hopefully around 7 or so.

Anyone have any idea how far from the stage the back of the standing area is?

Oh that is some stamina, I'm not sure I have that kind of energy to hang around for hours after only getting back from RIP this evening.
I would def say hi if I saw you though!

A tip for ya, if you don't get a wristband, hang around by the front entrance, if they have more, and most of the time they do, then they give them out there.

Went to see Green Day, walked in at 19:45, lady was givin out wristbands, 5ft from front by 19:50

JJ · 08-06-2010 08:33AM

and btw Gallows demanded everyone to start making mosh circles and near the end asked ppl to make human pyramids.

Can someone drop the last song of the RATM set in a spoiler tag please? Don't want to spoil the set on setlist.fm but don't want to waste time better used getting out of there anticipating another encore that will never come.

not sure if itll be the same, i imagine slightly different. Before they came out they basically did a video montage of the xmas number one timeline/newspaper/Cowell headlines and played the X factor song in the background. then they came out and did Killing..obviously!!

TastySpoon · 08-06-2010 11:13AM

Hey guys, just back from Finsbury, was an amazing gig!

Does anyone know what time to start queuing if you want to get a pit pass for the o2?

Cheers!

Furious-Red · 08-06-2010 11:47AM

Would love to be at this tonight! Make sure ya all come back and make me jelous about how good it was!

taytothief · 08-06-2010 11:17PM

Epic

handsomecake · 09-06-2010 12:10AM

un ****ing believable.

all hell cant stop us now

acquiescefc · 09-06-2010 12:35AM

better than finsbury park for the record...

not that you needed telling.

*insert superlative here*(which still wouldnt do it justice)

hidinginthebush · 09-06-2010 12:38AM

amazing!

Slutmonkey57b · 09-06-2010 12:38AM

Totally amazing concert, and it was worth getting off my arse to get fit for.

Better than Oxegen because of... not having to hang around at poxegen all day waiting for them.

Had to save a tall blonde girl in a white and grey stripy top who kept falling over and insisting she was fine... couldn't find any of her mates but took her to the medics, who said she was doing ok after. If that was your mate, or if you're her, hope she's/you're ok from the half naked beardy guy who didn't believe you when you said you were fine, despite your wholehearted, completely convincing assertations in favour of that highly unlikely state of affairs....

(yeah, half naked beardy guy at a rage gig, that narrows it down!

--LOS-- · 09-06-2010 12:54AM

****ing brilliant! Not as mental as Nuremberg, different but still awesome

Got there in the middle of Gallows and ended up pretty near the front so was happy out.
Must be said that Gogol Bordello were really great too.
I'm a sweaty mess now

sabrewulf · 09-06-2010 01:02AM

Wow, that was different than expected (and I saw them live before). In a good and in a bad way. The crowd seemed to dig'em tonight. I'll post a full review later. In the meantime I'll let this little audio snippet from tonight speak for itself:

bjj-fighter · 09-06-2010 01:13AM

That was sooo great! Best gig I have ever been to. Playing the Internationale when they went off-stage was a brilliant touch! The only problem is I have the leaving cert in 8hrs...But thanks Rage for making failing English so worth it

OutlawPete · 09-06-2010 01:21AM

BEST GIG EVER!!!!

UN-BE-FCUKING-LIVEABLE!!!!

Tha balcony was swaying :eek:

Man that was some gig, jesus h christ ..

Amazing, totally amazing!!

Think she fell on my leg so I picked her up and two guys put hers arms around them and I assumed they brought her to the medic, about 5 minutes later she was back in and swaying and had to be brought out again.

Killing In The Name Of .. tonight:

--LOS-- · 09-06-2010 01:50AM

That's cool seeing the whole crowd, by the time I left the place had nearly cleared out. I lost my camera

If anyone finds it.....ye it's in bits now isn't it.

sabrewulf · 09-06-2010 01:53AM

Before I forget: I caught a jacket that flew to me from a few rows behind me. Looked like a rain jacket and inside there was something like a cellphone or a digicam (I didn't look into the pocket). I held the Jacket up for some time hoping the person behind me who lost it would pick it up, but no one approached me, so hang it right next to a beer booth next to the exit (inside the venue). If you lost one contact the venue. Chances are that they have found/will find it while cleaning the place.
