I just got the regular Nimes dvd but that's not a bad price for what's in it. You could always get someone to burn a copy of 'Demo Magnetic' so you don't have to buy the box.;)

or acquire it, ahem, through some ill gotten means....not that Lars would approve

Just another 24 hours to see if I've won a bid I'm watching on the Coffin box set on EBay, looking to get it at a discounted price too:pac:

Good man,we're in a recession!:D

I didnt really think much of my cam work as I wasnt watching the screen (cause I didnt want security seeing me looking at the screen) so I just pointed in the general direction I taught it should be in. I'd say I only looked at the screen for 20% of the gig, so ya I did!!;)

Security aren't bothered anymore about cameras,not unless it's a big SLR. Only place i've seen security take a hard line on cameras was at a Met show in New Jersey last year. They were making people take out memory cards and everything!!

Great vids,thanks for posting.:cool:

You must be joking lad, the security guy in front of me told me stop filming when High on fire were on!! A guy behind be told me that he was there the night before and he saw security confiscate 2 video cameras!! My cam takes both video and can take pics at the same time so I called him over and showed him that I was just taking pics, he he not so as you can see though! My friends dont call me Snake for nothing!! :P:P

My mate had a regular compact digital camera with him and the guys patting him down outside asked what it was. He showed them the camera and they said no problem and let him in with it. When i went through(no camera) the security were more concerned about my zippo("You can't smoke in the venue"!).:rolleyes:

Also, does anyone know, what does this version of Death Magnetic come with - do you just get a card in a box or do you actually get a physical copy of the CD as well as a code card....because I think it's the latter but I don't speak German

I think that was a version that included a physical cd as well as a code to download one of the DM launch gigs from London and Berlin.

OK, now bear with me, this isn't the usual Megadeth vs. Metallica thread question....

So, Mustaine arrives in New York in April 83 with Metallica and they immediately want him out of the group for various reasons. Mustaine goes back on the bus to LA and rents an apartment. Let's say, he got his **** together very fast, and in June 83 when he first heard Metallica's material he sued the ass off them for using his stuff without his prior consent.

Now, Metallica debate this is the case, and said Mustaine never said anything of the sort. Still, a year passes, and Metallica have obviously kept demos from around 82 and early 83 and still have Mustaine's work and use it again on Ride The Lightning. At this point, why doesn't Mustaine sue? This is the second album they've released and it's heavy with Mustaine influence.

There's no denying Kill Em All is rawer and more Thrash friendly then any other Metallica record...and it sounds more like a Megadeth record...so I assume that in the years that followed a Metallica lawyer, in secret, has negotiated with Mustaine that he will not take Metallica to court for using his material without permission and Mustaine is happy with the royalties?

Then there's Master of Puppets, Mustaine debates there's material on there which is his, although nothing is credited to him...so is this Mustaine attempting to make more money from his former bandmates or does he have a credible argument, did they get sick of paying for Mustaine to start a new band - which he did in 1984 after RTL came out - and so figured they'd wouldn't fund him anymore

Or, did Metallica and Mustaine have a secret agreement that although they were kicking him out of the band, they'd give him full credits and use his material and he could use the money to get his life back on track?

Just uploaded these to Youtube,figured i'd lob them in here in case anyone wants to hear them.:)

This audio is excellent, please do upload more if you have it Lord Lucan

I think to have seen them at this gig, with Jason, would have been fantastic...I have seen Metallica about 7/8 times, and only once indoors, and the indoor gig ranks as the best

I have the whole show. It was a cassette bootleg i bought a week after the gig. Only got around to copying it to MP3 late last year and finally got around to splitting the tracks a few weeks ago. If a few people are interested i'll whack the whole show up on Youtube and you can rip it from there.

Double click on the vid and have a look at 'my channel',there's a couple of GN'R tunes from Slane on there too.

Despite seeing Metallica in various guises both indoors and outdoors over the years that show in '96 is still a special one. I have no idea why but it's one of my favourites despite seeing them in MSG amongst other places. And Jason was brilliant for working the crowd and on backing vocals.

Metal Ireland have apparently listed a date for Metallica performing in Ireland this September, seems highly unlikely given their current tour schedule, I suppose since they like Dublin they could come here for possibly a one off gig or a little vacation type thing....but I can't really see it happening...still, it's listed here since this morning

At the moment there's a 3 month gap in their schedule from the end of their European run at the end of this month until the end of September when they kick off in Japan. I'd be surprised if they came back having played 2 nights on this island already in Belfast.

I've been on MetalIreland for years - doing pay any attention to the Gig Dates.......it's just that anyone can submit stuff......unless you hear it somewhere else - like from Metallica, MCD or a venue take little notice.....

Rumours going around that Metallica will play Marlay Park Dublin on Sat 4th September 2010.

Cant really afford to go to this if ture ie have Slash, Iron Maiden and Guns N Roses.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

C**p, c**p venue.

You for real? Give me Marley Park over the RDS or the Point any day.

Saw the thing on metalireland about it, it'd be very doubtful. They do sometimes have a wrong gig up, this will be another I imagine.

would love to know whos supporting this time?!

I actually would like to go, my 5th year running lol
I know, they play the same set most years but tis still cool though imho

This gig will never happen, they didn't even sell 3/4 of tickets for last year so if any gig was gonna happen then it'll be at The Point, but i honestly can't see them comin over.

As for Marley Park, it's a crap venue, a nightmare to get to, why don't they use Malahide Castle like they did a few years ago, a dart station 200yards from the entrance, and a mile from my house :D

Indoors indoors indoors. The O2 would be cool for a Metallica concert. Like many have said, its a real pain in the **** trudging down stupid lanes to get to the concert site in Marlay. The RDS wasn't that hard to get in and out of now, was it??
