Faaaaaaaaaaark. Just when I was trying to scrape together the dosh for Kreator and Destruction/Destroyer 666 tickets, this gets announced:


Oh well, street whoring and kidney selling it is then.

Great, caught them last time around and they were great. I would love to hear some of the new tracks live, especially the title track from 'Twilight...'

They just bloody need to get some good support acts going this time! Surely they have at least some friends in Sweden they could bring along.

I missed them last tour so they are high on my list of priorities. Bane of Isildur are supporting in Sydney, they are pretty decent.

Looks like I'm going to have to miss this one. Not because I don't want to go but because it's 18+. I'd love to go but I'm not old enough.

WTF no Adelaide show?? They had one last time! Fucking gay!

I'm kinda glad this one's not coming to Adelaide, there's just too many gigs right now, but not enough cash to pay for them.

Don't ever say our city has too many metal gigs. We get nothing in comparison to Europe and America.

Yeah i dont blame them, i try to stay away from Adelaide as well

I caught them last time they were here, great gig, will hopefully go to this one as well.

Maybe the Adelaide summer is too dry and hot for these norsemen.

Sucked in Roger! hahaha

you should have gone when they toured australia 21 months ago.

i saw amon amarth last year, bane of isildur were the support act that time too. both are heaps good so i'm going to try and make it to this gig

What you get I would consider alot of gigs

we get nothing so when bands do come we occasionly get violentish

When diecide came some people caused glen benton to leave the stage lol

The whole Southern Hemisphere should get more bands!

This is true, but it's a lot more than usual, and in such a small time frame. It seems like we've got an international gig every two weeks now. Couple that with the much more expensive price of gigs here than in Europe and America, it's quite hard to hit all of them.

Coming up in Adelaide we have:
Cannibal Corpse (~$60)
Against The Grain (~$45)
Kreator (~$50)
Slayer/Megadeth (~$90)
Arch Enemy/Suffocation (~$75)
Obituary (~$60)
Dream Theater (~$100)
Lamb Of God/Devildriver/Shadows Fall (~$75)
Edguy/Cynic (~$70)
Chimaira (~$65)
Soundwave (~$130)
Big Day Out (if it has a not crap lineup)

That's a lot for us, not to mention things like Screamfest, Amon Amarth, and other tours that aren't coming to Adelaide.

But, poor choice of words, I'm not saying it's too many gigs. There's no such thing as too many gigs. It's just one less gig I have to whinge about not being able to afford to go to.

Weren't they here yesterday?

Never been a big fan and I've always though they have been one of the most overrated metal bands ever...

That been said, I'll still be going.

Might actually check them out this time and not buy a Blood Duster DVD instead.
OBITUARY TOO!
Going to pass on Corpse though, they are meh live.
I'm pissed that organisers actually think it would be exciting if Cynic and Edguy played together though, Edguy can get fucked.

My friend said exactly that when he saw it. If anyone should play with Cynic it should be Alarum!

Is your friend me? I said the same thing, more or less.

Cynic, Alarum and Alchemist...now that is a proper metal show, a godly one for that fact.

I dunno? Do I know you?



You know Alarum and Alchemist are playing a gig together on October 3rd? Hellraiser III??

I didn't know that! You just cost me more money.
East Brunswick Club is actually quite a grand venue.

It is well worth it! Support the local scene!

No, I was making a joke... Point is, Cynic >^infinity Edguy

Cynic > the entire Power Metal genre for that matter.

They did in the Uk: Entombed!

Are Destruction touring Australia with Destroyer 666? =o

Shit, I had no idea Obituary were coming round. Might check that one out for sure. Besides - I wouldn't consider Chimaira, Soundwave and Against The Grain good metal shows.

Nonetheless, hopefully in the next 30 months they will be back for a whole Aussie tour.

They toured a couple of years ago.

Damn straight they are. Screamfest and the 'Metal Month' sideshows has an astounding lineup. Thank God we're getting a couple of shows in Perth.

I never mentioned anything about good.

Besides, Soundwave has Faith No More, Meshuggah, and Isis, and Against The Grain has Alchemist, Mournful Congregation, The Amenta, Alarum, Ne Obliviscaris, etc. What's not good about that?

Gonna see Amon Amarth along with Evile and Entombed 17/10. Now that's what I call a fucking good show!
