One week away from the beginning of their tour. I'm going for Megadeth but I don't mind Slayer, should be great. Who here is going? :thumbsu:

(Why are they playing at small venues? Surely they could sell out Hisense for instance? How did the Slayer show in 07 sell?)
 
I'm going to the Adelaide show, will be my first ever concert :thumbsu: Very excited. I'm going mainly for Megadeth too but I don't mind Slayer either although I'd rather Megadeth be headlining. Oh well, they both play same amount so should be good!
 
I'll be at the Melbourne show. I saw Slayer at Festival Hall in 1995 (?) and they were fantastic :thumbsu:

I'm not sure what to expect from Megadeth. I took a passing interest in them around the time of "Peace Sells" and "So Far, So Good" but haven't listened to anything they've done in more than a decade.

Pick up Endgame. It's great. :thumbsu:
So far, Dave has mentioned Set the World Afire, Take No Prisoners, Devil's Island, Sweating Bullets, MY LAST WORDS and FIVE MAGICS as possibilities for the setlist. Pretty decent so far.
And theres nothing like a litte Angel of Death to get the adrenaline pumping :D

yep wil be there..front row, centre.. Have seen both before, Megadeth are very good live.

I hear Slayer headlines in Melbourne (they rotate slots each night) which means we can leave once they start playing anything post South of Heaven:p
 
Id say im a fan of both bands pretty equally. Dont know enough of eithers back catalogue to know every song what will be on the setlist. Dont rate mustaines voice to be honest but the guitar work is second to none.

Should be a killer show.
 
I'm a big fan of both bands, seen both before and they ruled. Unfortunately the general admission tickets sold out the first day. If anyone knows of anyone selling a ticket for the standing section of their Melbourne show I'm willing to pay $150 for it, so please PM me...
 
I'm going to the Melbourne show. I'm not a real fan of Megadeth but Slayer aren't too bad though, the next night I'm seeing Marilyn Manson. Big weekend for me. :thumbsu:

I bought General Admission for the Adelaide show, does anyone know where I can watch from? If I line up early enough does this mean I can get right at the front?

With the 100% chance of a pit it wont really matter what time you get there. Your not going to be where you started when they finish

Not entirely true. If you manage to be up on the rail you shouldn't have to much trouble. I had the rail for Megadeth in 2005. Insanely awesome. :eek:
 
Well yeh of course, first 2 rows are usually fine.

But say if you werent to get to the front at doors opening time, you still have a pretty good chance of getting there in the end

That was his post... if he's there early, then yes he can definitely stay at the front. :p
 
coolio, I don't really know much about what happens as it will be my first concert but how are you supposed to eat or go to the toilet without losing your spot? If I line up for 1-2hours before it starts then by the time it finishes it will be about 6 hours...What do you guys do, do you eat a shitload before so you don't have to go buy anything to eat while in there and lose your spot and just bad luck if you really need to piss?

Yeah definately grab a feed and do everything else before you go. These venues are happy to make you pay way over the top for food and drink. Also there will be lines to get to use these facilities so its better off avoiding them if you can.

If your on the front rail and leave it then you will not get it back

I may take your advice for the Arch Enemy concert in November at the Forum in Melbourne. I want to get there early, so I can get close to the band, but more so, Angela Gossow. :p
