    Sadly I can't make the concert this Friday. Absolutely raging, I'm just hoping this gig and the one last year doesn't mean a long wait for another Irish concert with two so close.

    I have two standing tickets available if anyone is interested. I know they are still on sale so willing to let the two go for €80. They cost €103 all in.

    If you only manage to sell one, I might be interested in buying the other one. I've no interest in Volbeat to be honest, I want to see Baroness, but paying full price to see a support length set, presumably with "support band sound" doesn't appeal really. PM me if you want to do a deal, but you're probably better off selling the two together I know!

    Maybe pop them up on toutless.com?

    Bit early for stage times yet I'm guessing?

    Just saw that. Saying due to technical issues. A venue problem maybe because I saw on Instagram they did all their sound checks earlier.

    There's a video of it. Was it his voice?

    Just reading through twitter. Not good from Volbeat. People saying issues within the band as Baroness and Danko played no problem.

    As long as Baroness play in some shape or form then all good, they're the sole reason I'm going.

    Nah Volbeat are the only reason I'm going to this

    Heartbreaking esp to hear its cancelled at such sort notice (if it's to be the case). Doesn't sound too good looking at the comments on this post

    Although it is a sh1tty thing to happen,it is a valid reason,i know from personal experience that a bad in-ear mix can lead you to blowing your voice very easily....i just dont understand how it couldnt be fixed with the high end gear they have for it,they have a back up for everything they need!

    Seems strange with the support bands not having issues. Seeing the setlist was a few songs shorter than previous gigs is lousy too.

    Good news but wont relax til the first song is played fully

    Hopefully the in ear issues will be sorted, they should be familiar with the sound in the Olympia as they only played there last year
