Bigfooty General Metal Thread Mk.VIII

I think Megadeth will want to do their own shows to farewell the fans; they've been really good about touring here ever since I've been old enough to go to concerts (early 2000s). If they aren't getting a full slot for their sets with Maiden, and if they don't get their own shows in between (while there's days between concerts, Mustaine may not be capable of backing up anymore) I would think they'll be coming again before they finish.

Never been a big Megadeth fan, but these days is it just to see Mustaine? The other guys really have no link to the classic stuff that people want to hear.

It's diluted given Ellefson is no longer there, but the other three members are superb musicians themselves. But yeah, it's basically Dave and Friends now rather than a cohesive band (tbf, probably been that since Marty and Nick left).

Megadeth are one of my favourite bands and Rust In Peace is my personal goat album, so I've never missed the opportunity to see them.

If they are not doing the Japanese dates with Maiden maybe they'll stick around in Australia and do some shows after the Maiden dates finish.

Can see them doing places like the Hordern Pavilion and Festival Hall.

They did Margaret Court Arena last time over here, so I'm hoping they'll be doing that or Rod Laver.

I still remember when they were last here and you posted about the Adelaide venue, them playing next door to Rod Stewart (I think it was). All I could think about was someone getting their tickets mixed up and getting a very rude awakening

Yes Megadeth played at the theatre Rod Stewart played at the arena both concerts got out at the same time so all the fans were mixed together it was quite amusing.

It was pretty easy to see which fans were what show let's put it that way.

Stoked they are coming to Adelaide and indoors.

Seems it is not confirmed yet friend sent me the pic hope it is not bs.

That’s why ill be flying over to Adelaide for this, wish I had for Tool

RS would be something my parents would go to.

On Vegas I've been hearing everything there's gone right thru the roof, past year or so. Casino's no longer catering whatsoever to average punters or the middle class, in favor of the ultra-wealthy.

Early thoughts are SA and Vic for me. Get an indoor and outdoor show. Plus Adelaide > Sydney hahaha.

Having seen it outdoors last year i am very happy Adelaide are getting an arena show will easily be the smallest crowd of the tour.

Always prefer an arena show but it was great outdoors also the screen is massive so will be interesting to see how it comes across in an arena.

Will be interesting to see if there are any setlist changes for this years shows.

Maiden shirts were €50 ($80+ Aus) last year better get some lube in preparation.

I don't buy tour tshirts anymore, they've gotten too expensive, well for the big acts anyway, happy to pay 45 bucks for a local band's shirt.

I'm thinking it'll be a minimum of 2 for each band, so really looking at $400-500...if Megadeth do their own tour, hoping it's the same shirts so I don't get stung again!!

I go there at least once a year, usually more, Adelaide > Sydney easily for me. Did 6 Soundwaves there in a row I think.

Does AAMI Park have accessible seating? Wouldn't be able to get up and down those stands with my leg. How do I access accessible seating, would anyone know?
