Tickets are still available. Decisions, decisions!

Half the pack lads are going.....I am only interested in the mighty OPETH....Being a singer i find that DT are a guitarists band, our guys love em and Rab owns 2 x JP music man's

@Wolfpack: "i find that DT are a guitarists band" - How can you say that with Sir Lord Portnoy in the throne!?

# Posted by NIGHT TRAIN - 07/10/2009, 13:00 (GMT)

our drummer's going...had to get replacement for Friday

# Posted by WOLFPACK - 07/10/2009, 13:22 (GMT)

He's not that good!!! Wolfpack's drummer not going as he doesn't rate him and opeths Martin Axenrot is far better.....reel, reel ;-)

Please don't get me into a DT argument as I won't bite, they do nowt for me! I am only winding you all up as I do with the Pack lads!

@ Wolfpack - I'm not biting!! lol (grrrrr)

# Posted by WOLFPACK - 07/10/2009, 13:25 (GMT)

he he.....when Rab sees this he will whoop my arse for you so don't worry ;-)

# Posted by ST Photography - VIVA LA COMMU... - 07/10/2009, 13:26 (GMT)

Ha ha, Portnoy is a LEGEND. The End.

# Posted by WOLFPACK - 07/10/2009, 13:29 (GMT)

Drummers are a bloody pain in the arse, the lot of em ;-)

# Posted by ST Photography - VIVA LA COMMU... - 07/10/2009, 15:37 (GMT)

HEATHEN!!! I call for an immediate ban and a massive, massive fine.

Everyone knows that drummers are the glue that hold all good bands together. (Ha ha - sniff the glue that hold the band together more like!)

All of RETROSPECT are going, inspite of moaning wives, unsympathetic bosses and even their own gigs! I think our drummer actually takes a sock and messes into it watching Portnoys drumming....

/defo there - Gig of the year - Opeth and Dream Theater - will be awesome. Baz

# Posted by Keef - 07/10/2009, 19:16 (GMT)

Must go to this one !! Saw them two years ago in Blackburn, Blew me away. Awesome stuff and Mike Portnoy so rules . Opeth will be a first for me tho.

# Posted by Markk (Vankwish) - 07/10/2009, 22:53 (GMT)

i saw the mike portnoy show in blackburn also, was awesome, didnt rate the queing outside though to get in !

im led to beleive there was some other people on stage with mr portnoy ? i think they must have been his support act - guitarist/keyboard/singer or something ;)

# Posted by Scott - Metalleeka - 08/10/2009, 08:42 (GMT)

ha ha you're not getting a rise out of me on that one Markk lol

Although, just how insecure must James LaBrie be? lol

Let's face it, if you asked every Dream Theater fan who they would most like to meet in order, he would be the last on everyone's list....with the exception of John Myung who just looks miserable all the time....cheeeeeeeeeeer up you little sod PMSL

James, you are the weakest like Goodbye

I'm joking of course :-D

Can't wait to see them tomorrow.
If you want an idea of what they might be playing tomorrow night, go to www.setlist.fm and you'll see what they've been playing so far.
(that's unless you like to be surprised on the night)

# Posted by Hallowed - 08/10/2009, 16:09 (GMT)

Yep, we are going to be there, third time seeing them! Doors are 5:30 tho :-\ might struggle to get there in time considering I only finish work at that time

# Posted by Keef - 08/10/2009, 16:40 (GMT)

Really wanted to be there, but just realised I had already committed myself to supporting Dyehouse.
What a bummer !! But when tell everyone to get out there and support your mates you have to make an occasional sacrifice.

Hope your reading this Gordon lol.

Let us know what a stella gig was put on by messrs Portnoy,Petrucci,Rudesss,Myung and the singer bloke James whatever Haa Haa
