Fuck no. We shall not go quietly, us wild humans, we shall rage against the dying of the light, one last time, one for the road, one for the bang of the latch, no sir, we shall not go quietly into the night. Fuck no :shred:

Yeah, I agree that aging is a factor and I'm definitely older than I used to be and stand back more these days but I'm saying that I don't see many of the younglings taking my place down the front. Personally, I don't need Bruce to sprint across the stage for The Trooper to make me want to mosh...

Apart from having to listen to Opeth that sounds perfect

Berghain. You're a pervert. I'm disgusted. But why do you think I chose Berlin over all the other cities to see Maiden? Well, partly cos Bucharest was sold out but still, I see you B)

100% I'd say Maiden are the only big band I'll go see from now on. The boring crowds over the last few years have really taken its toll on me. Its no longer worth it unless I have a crowd with me. I used to fly solo all the time and find a crew for mayhem but now not so much. 6 of us went to...

Are you the one that stands down the front with arms crossed and gets annoyed when people bang into you, as if you own a spot on the floor just cos youve been there for 3 hours? It's you that ruins my night and me that ruins yours. We hate each other. I love you :shred:

Do you think? I don't doubt it but I've not heard such chat from people.

I like to sing along. I'm sorry :D Although I prefer when we're singin together, that's the fun bit. If it's just me then I'll fuck up after the first chorus cos I feel out of place and I feel the eyes boring into my head:edmetal:

I like that there's variety here and I wasn't havin a go at anyone, everyone is entitled to enjoy a gig as they please. It just so happens that I like to go a bit mad and like others to do the same, it's the communal expression of joy that I love, touching strangers, the eye contact, the garbled...

I get ye and I do go to a range of gigs but the quota of lunatics gets ever smaller even at the local level. If your town is different then i commed them and I hope it lasts and you enjoy it while it does. There are good gigs in my town but they are in the minority and I genuinely mourn it and...

I appreciate those old folk that have served their time and now hang back, they did their dancing and gave bands the energy they deserved and years and gigs take their toll. What annoys me is the young folk that have refused to take up the batton and make many gigs like a morgue. Its a damn...

So you had front then lost it? My only guess is that the old computer system can't handle it. Like if there's 10 spaces left and 15 people click on it within a second or 2 of eachother then the computer doesn't know who was a millisecond quicker. Or somethin. Or maybe it knows people will drop...

That makes way more sense. Aye, I was number 880 in the queue, got in within a minute, front standing gone. Anyway, that's me with standing for Dublin, Glasgow and Berlin II. I have a wedding next weekend, they shall not be receiving a present.

Aye this is the thing, Front Standing is in the lap of the gods but there will be some available in the general sale, I'd say. I assume the front area for Dublin is quite small cos its only €5 difference between front and general admission, it's usually substantially more.

They want €35 to post me the ticket for Berlin. Bastards. Any Berlinners in the haus? Edit - never mind. I paid the delivery fee. I thought paper tickets were dead. Anyway, that's standing for Glasgow and Berlin secured, now to join the melee for Dublin at 12pm. I could have used my presale...

Berlin 2 added, I see. Might chance that, never been, cool looking venue, got a friend or 2 living there and it's a few weeks after the other shows I'm going to.

Ok, so my brother just said someone he knows is in Japan, Maiden fan, picked up an original Japanese Powerslave. Surely its the same guy?! :eek:

And then they supported Maiden in 2006, wonder if that was Maiden tipping the hat for their support the year before

It's a start fo sho but it makes fuck all difference just now. People who want to resell at ridiculous prices just use Viagogo or Ticombo or whatever. Seems to me that Maiden have limited Ticketmasters own reselling capabilities and that's to be applauded but the other sites are unaffected. And...

For what its worth, I used someone's presale code in the past with no issue but that was 2015 or maybe earlier. And in 2011 there was an anti tout thing in place with online tickets only, the persons ID had to match the name on the ticket but they didn't check ID or ticket names, just scan and...
