Gigs - who's going to what?

[Symphony]

I'm thinking of these at the moment....

Feb 12th - Lordi/Fatal Smile

Feb 20th - Hellfire Fest (saturday)

Anyone doing the Priest Feast?

 

[Andiferum]

19/02 - Children of Bodom, Forum, London - definite
21/02 - Priest Feast, Wembley Arena, London - definite
01/03 - HammerFall + Sabaton, Islington Academy, London - definite
29/03 - Kamelot + Dream Evil, Islington Academy, London - maybe...
24-25/04 - HammerFest, Pontins resort, Prestatyn, Wales - most likely
06/05 - Blaze Bayley, Joiners, Southampton - hopefully

 

[Andiferum]

Oh and Steve, the Saturday of Hellfire is the 21st (same day as Priest Feast).

 

[Jasonic]

Kamelot and Dream Evil together????????????????????

WOW!!!

For me currently, the only definite is Metallica next week.

Possibly Prog Power, though I am hoping for additional PQ shows in the States, like, um, Chicago!

 

[Symphony]

Oh and Steve, the Saturday of Hellfire is the 21st (same day as Priest Feast).

Goddamit! thanks for the heads up!

 

[Andiferum]

Goddamit! thanks for the heads up!

No problem. It's the reason I'm not going that day But I believe post gig drinks with Dani are in order.

 

[Power_Metal_Dom]

Gigs and me haven't danced for a looooooooong while because being a student in the arse-end means lack of travel and moneys.

But I am triumphantly attending Priest Feast in Sheffield on 13th Feb CAN'T FECKIN' WAIT

 

[Dan W]

May 4th - Saxon @ Bristol Academy is a definite

Also booked off 6th, 7th and 16th of May for possible Blaze Bayley gigs in Southampton, Swindon and Weston-Super-Mare respectively

Priest Feast is a bit too costly at the moment, but might reconsider nearer the time

 

[Andiferum]

18/05 - Stratovarius + Firewind

I'm guessing this will make a few of you rather happy!

[Andiferum]

I'm hopefully going! What makes you ask?

 

[Symphony]

Maybe considering a little trip myself

 

[Andiferum]

Sounds excellent. I'm very much hoping to go...we'll see how it pans out!

 

[dragonwarrior]

Looks like Metalloid will be playing Hellfire Fest on the Sunday, a shame you won't be around then Steve!

My next gig... Bodom and Cannibal Corpse in Nottingham on Tuesday. And Spandau Ballet (who have apparently reformed), whenever they announce dates, hahaha.
