    Standing ticket got just now, so not completely mental....


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    I can't see it ever selling out. Unless they scale it back so much that it does? Unlikely.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Mental Mickey


    How quickly will it sell out? I'm going to a funeral tomorrow morning for 10AM, and will miss the opening of the phone lines

    Got my tickets this afternoon


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Mental Mickey

    Cool song. Great 60's vibe to it and then he chimes in with "Satan, Lucifer" just in case you were thinking they were becoming hippies.

    Didn't do much for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 116 ✭✭CapricornOne


    Mary on A Cross released at midnight on Spotify also. Similar vibe, lots of keys.

    Those lyrics though.

    Setlist from opening night of the US tour last night. I'd imagine it'll be something similar when it reaches here

    I'd be happy enough with that set for November.

    Yeah, the second song (Mary on a Cross) is way better... but two new Ghost songs are better than none.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    Ah yeah, they have to keep feeding the machine at this stage, maybe they'll grow on me. I managed to nab one of the 7"s so that could help.

    With the exception of one show next year, Ghost will be doing "absolutely zero" touring in 2020.

    Id love if they did "Life Eternal" song means so much to me


  • Registered Users Posts: 874 ✭✭✭devildriver


    Well that was epic!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,348 ✭✭✭Wrongway1985


    Was a top night, we got there early was chilly outside so didn't hang around went straight in for Tribulation who I enjoy were decent sound maybe a bit iffy but not the worst. ATW not really my thing knocked them on the head when did started the drum feck actin.

    Ghost delivered! pretty much a 2 hour show so hardly fussed over the few bits of arguable filler. Was kinda cringe when half the crowd didn't know one of their best songs when singing was encouraged during it but on the flipside great to see so many in the know with the tracks that are literally out only a few weeks. Definitely won't be the last of them on these shores.

    Massive props to greenspurs for sorting me out with some tix. ;)

    I had no preconceptions about Tribulation but they got into their groove after a few songs and got a good reception from the audience. I was actually looking forward to All them Witches but they were pretty dull, looked like they couldn't be arsed. Ghost were a class act though, very impressive.

    Only stumbled across them a couple of months ago and went to the gig here, really enjoyed it, a great show, they really know how to entertain.

    Just in case there is interest. Host - Ghost Tribute are playing Fibbers this Friday from 11pm to midnight as part of the return of Tempest.

    I left YouTube on playing music a few weeks ago, it decided to deviate from the band I was listening to and put a Ghost video on. I thought about skipping and though nah, who knows they could be my new favourite band.

    Not discovering them before they played here last year is a huge regret. Who knows when they'll be back with how things are now :'(

    I was late getting on the Ghost train too. Only discovered them in between Meliora and Prequelle. Glad I eventually got into them though, an excellent band.

    New album coming this Winter..
    Translated from Swedish, the article states that although Ghost's March 2021 tour plans have been pushed back until later in the year, a new album will still be out this winter. It also notes that while these unprecedented times relate to the subject matter Ghost usually cover in their music, Forge didn't actually write any of the new songs about the global pandemic.

    Love their cover of enter sandman, the start is pretty haunting. you'd almost mistake it for an actual Ghost song
