Aussiekraut Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) Well, this will be a long list I think At least if I can remember all of them. D.R.I. In Flames Kreator (2x) Sepultura Cattle Decapitation Satyricon Mayhem (2x) Iron Maiden (4x) Alestorm (2x) AC/DC Saxon Magnum Kiss Marillion (2x) BAP (3x) Cradle of Filth (3x) Children of Bodom Dark Tranquility Accept Lagerstein (10+x) The Living End My Chemical Romance Bad Religion (3x) NoFX Metallica Slayer Dimmu Borgir The Offspring Green Day Anti-Flag (2x) Testament Anthrax David Lee Roth Gary Moore Queen (once with Freddy and once with Adam Lambert) Die Toten Hosen (3x) Venom Inc. Deep Purple Insomnium Cold Chisel The Bay City Rollers Queensrÿche Mötley Crüe Motörhead Geoff Tate The Rolling Stones Bullet for my Valentine (3x) Linking Park Black Sabbath Jimmy Barnes Sham 69 (2x) The Business The Iron Maidens Arch Enemy (2x) Amon Amarth Ozzy Osbourne Blink 182 Pennywise The Mighty Mighty Bosstones Clout The Spider Murphy Gang Avenged Sevenfold Atreyu Sabaton Valhalore Destruction Kalmah Be'Lakor Blasphemy And a helluva lot more than I can't think of atm. Lots of local and smaller Aussie acts, too many to list. As you can probably guess, I love my Metal and Punk with a little sprinkle of other things mixed in. I missed a few concerts like Overkill, when a broken tap flooded the house or when I realised the concert I was going to go to was on the previous day, not when I was getting ready More recently, I had a ticket for Behemoth but was sick. The Scorpions and Whitesnake doubleheader was cancelled 2 days before the show and then Covid hit. I had 7 tickets for shows that were all postponed or outright cancelled. I still have a ticket for Abbath, which was postponed a few times and still is. I think they're coming toward the end of the year and the ticket is still valid.

Interesting to note you have seen “Lagerstein” 10+ times - I’m thinkin you might have seen a Lagerstein many more times than that 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more into death metal type stuff. I've never been super into going to shows, but some of the best gigs I saw would be Incantation, Nile, Pungent Stench, Cryptopsy and Cannibal Corpse.

Oh OK, well you know back in the day (when Joseph played full back for Jerusalem) that's what they (lovers of Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Hank Williams, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong and Nat King Cole and the like) said about artists of the underground era: like Jimmy Hendrix, Cream, Led Zeppelin, Steppenwolf (and the list goes on) - its a bit like beer really, it's all a matter of taste I guess, and thankfully we're all different, hey 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds interesting and I am tossing up whether I should go or not. Psycroptic are 2nd headliner, so that'd be a reason to go but 12 hour festivals with beers available usually lead to an evening I cannot remember much of 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pantera, Slipknot, Anthrax, there are a fair few more. I saw Anthrax at a festival many many years ago but their style just isn't my cuppa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they say you grow out of metal as you get older but somehow, I missed the briefing Just scored myself tickets for Suffication and Rotting Christ in April and May respectively. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
