    Wow! Been hoping I'd see him live at some point. Not hugely impressed with the venue choice though it should be a good gig.

    Sweet.Jesus.

    Edit: Funny that I'm listening to "Oh My Fúcking God" right now, I think that sums it up pretty well.

    Wow, that is an incredible version of the song!

    I'll admit I've never even heard of Turisas - but would really like to see Devin Townsend :D

    They were great at Sonisphere last year so that's convinced me to buy a ticket and see them later this year - I interviewed the violinist at the time and he was a good laugh:D

    Got my ticket anyway. It appears that Turisas are getting top billing and DTP are support. :o

    Just Saw Turisas at the weekend in France great live band but their slot was only 30mins (4 songs) so it will be great to see a full set. Also cant wait to see Devin, will see him twice this year as he is returning to Bloodstock this year because last year there were tech problems! So thats pretty sweet!

    Have never heard any of Devin Townsend's stuff.... can anyone suggest a few decent songs to look up? :)

    Dunno would I go about recommending songs, but for albums I'd go for the likes of Terria, Accelerated Evolution, Ziltoid The Omniscient, Ki, Addicted....SYL's stuff can be hit or miss but try City, if you don't like them after that you won't at all.

    The man has such a bursting back catalogue that it can be hard to get into him or at least a little daunting. I'd suggest just picking up afew albums and getting stuck in.

    Terria is my favourite thing he's done, for the record.
