gigs, going to any?

[SonOfIkaros]

My own, tomorrow night. Wish me luck.

My own today, well to be honest it's just a concert for my music school.

Good luck you two. Blow them away!

I'm not going to any gigs unfortunately, not really any interesting ones happening around where I live. I did see Deep Purple last October though, in Århus. They were absolutely great.

Im going to Sonisphere Festival at end of July.... I physically feel sick with excitement thinking about it. Rammstein, Pendulum, Slayer, Skindred, Anthrax, Fear Factory, Dir En Grey all amazing not to mention friggen CKY who I've never seen before :|

Been to Download last 3 years in a row (couldn't get holidays this year) so seen hunners of bands through them. Loads of gigs in Glasgow, Edinburgh and a few in London. Too many to list really.

[Chameliondude]

Goin to see Rage against the Machine tomorrow in London, gonna be siick.

incubus is my most recent, not much else earlier this year, defiantly going to Ben and Jerry's festival as well though and possibly reading.

 

[Spacelord]

Just had a gig last night actually. We rocked. Especially my stage moves are top fuckin' notch if I do say so myself. We got another one the 19th and one more in July I think... Anyway, weird thing is I don't go to gigs nearly as much as I used to. There's this festival I want to get a one day ticket for and see Pearl Jam though. Apart from that... not much planned actually.

November - Devildriver & 36 crazyfists (I may jizz in my pants that day!)

this month, I'm seeing the damned things, city and colour, coheed and cambria and between the buried and mee, i am excited

then on august the 1st, my band is playing the 02 islington academy

 

[Baron_Rouge]

November- Metallica!

I've also been to Iron Maiden, Dragonforce, Sonata Arctica, and Dream Theater twice.

 

[Sephychu]

Going to fucking Download Festival next week, then at the end of next month going to see cKy in Leamington Spa. Fuck YEAH!

Seen tons of bands, so listing them would be too long, but let me tell you, Metallica at the O2 arena was magical.

Fucking Megadeth! Also Rage and AC/DC.

Sadly, I'm not going to Sonisphere, but I'm seeing cKy at the only other gig they're doing.

It's in bloody Coventry.
(sorry for the double post)

I'm doing the photography for an all-day gig next Friday. First on is my Cousins band, playing their own original stuff. A lot softer than what he started with (and not really my thing, although I appeciate the talent), but I reckon they have a better chance of earning some decent money with this.

Spoiler: some of the last shots I got of them

The second band is called Limehouse Lizzy, a Thin Lizzy cover band that play the exact same format, even the front man has the same doe-eyed look as Phil Lynott!

Spoiler

They are very awesome and I'm looking forward to it. For me, seeing live music is even better when I'm doing the photography.

 

[Lexodus]

I'm fucking going to SONISPHERE, the king of gigs!

 

[Gingersalt]

Fucking Megadeth! Also Rage and AC/DC.

Megadeth are Immense.... saw them a few years ago at Download!

Yeh I am so excited about CKY its ridiculous. Also get to see Tim Minchin... taking some spare underwear to throw at him lmao

Yeah, cKy are fucking immense. We've been waiting for them to come here since bloody forever. As soon as they bang out Escape from Hellview or Hellions on Parade or fucking anything, we'll go mental.

Also, do you reckon Megadeth'll play Tornado of Souls? That'd make my day, nay, my year.

Last year I went to Sonisphere, and separately saw Skindred, Karnivool, Devildriver, Behemoth, Suicide Silence, Malefice and Trigger the Bloodshed.

How was Skindred? I've always wanted to see them live.

They have to play 96 Quite Bitter Beings..... Then I could die happy haha

They played Tornado of Souls when I saw them but that was 2007 so dunno how much their set will of changed. Fingers crossed for you though love.
