Got ticket for Slayer for next Tuesday. probably heading up by myself. Wanna see if anyone might be interested in meeting for a few drinks beforehand or even sharing a lift up (heading from Cork). Get back if interested. Cheers

If you're looking to meet people before the Slayer gig you'll meet plenty of gig goers in any of the Rock bars. Fibber Magees, Bruxelles, Gypsy Rose, etc. You'll get talking to people easily enough in the ground floor bar in The Academy too as there's always a crowd in there before the performance.

heading on my own too. I'll be in town from around 5 for some grub so would happily join any boardsies for a pre gig pint or two.

metman1 · 28-06-2014 04:22PM

Cheers I aim to be around sometime after 5, im assuming the show is no support and like most academy gigs Slayer due on for 9?

rock whore · 01-07-2014 01:37PM

Yeah, no mention of support acts so prob just Slayer. They've played about 20 songs in the Limelight so hoping for something similar tonight. I've Raining Blood going round in my head all day.

Tickets say 7pm, so if there is no support act, is that doors, or Slayer's start time??

rock whore · 01-07-2014 03:38PM

Doors at 7. Start time should be sometime between 8-9, I'd say

MetalDog · 01-07-2014 04:24PM

Managed to get myself a ticket so looking forward to this now.

Thank you!

Degag · 01-07-2014 04:42PM

I've tried Facebook messaging The Academy to get a start time but can't seem to be able to. Don't want to go down at 8 and wait an hour if I can avoid it

blastman · 01-07-2014 05:07PM

Academy gigs tend to start early, I'd err on the side of caution if I were you.

Saw them last year there and they were excellent, but I'd already got a ticket to the eels for tonight when this gig was announced, so I'll have to settle for Anthrax tomorrow instead. Enjoy.....

Same here, but seeing as doors are at 7 I wouldn't think we'd be waiting 2hours..hopefully not anyway!

Hope everyone has a great night! I'll be the girl in jeans and black tee

No support, just a load of ambient trance to get you in the mood before slayer come on! ðŸ˜œ

Pissed i'm not going tonight but gotta work, just had 3wks off so another night may be pushing it

DrumSteve · 01-07-2014 08:01PM

Seem to be just blasting out the black album. The metal opposite of Slayer.

Better than reggae and trance though.

Lol don't think Kerry King will be happy with that!

Any sign of them coming on? Will probably head down around half 8

I think you'll be all right getting there for then.

Degag · 01-07-2014 11:06PM

Great gig, although I thought last years was better. Would love to know how many songs they played. Felt like 10+ !

Meant 20+

Tbh I thought they had great energy for what was their 3rd night in a row. Whilst Gary Holt may be no Jeff hannemann he's a beast on stage, his energy was infectious.

Holt is excellent alright. Is it just me or can Bostoph just not play the DB solo in Angel of Death?
