Ticket already booked for Roger Waters "Dark side Of The Moon" live show - May, Earls Court

Should be booking a ticket for Alice Cooper with Motorhead soon - November, Wembley Arena

And just found out Metallica are playing the new Wembley Stadium in July

Looking good! All I want now is a ticket for Aerosmith @ Hyde Park Calling, and for Iron Maiden @ Download....

Metallica aren't what they were live but still worth going, especially Wembley. Fade to black, so simple but so affective. Wonder if they will do any of the diamond head covers.

Off to the Leeds festival. Can't wait to see (+44), Fallout Boy (again) and Angels and Airwaves. Chillis should be awesome too. Also wanna see Ash (again).

Metallica played last time I attended, and they were amazing that year. Shame the Foos or Green Day won't be there. The line up's not amazing but I just really wanted to go.

Nine inch nails are one you dont want to miss

Wouldn't say that... Rob Trujillo has brought a new dimension to their live sets. I mean he plays "Battery" with his fingers!

Hopefully I'm going to this.

I disagree. I saw em in 2003 (last date of their Madly In Anger With The World Tour) and they were on fucking fire. The BEST I have ever seen them perform! Incredibly tight, no fucking around, staright to the core and just sounding absolutely amazing... To be fair to your statement tho, the banter they had on stage has gone now, as that really only existed when James, Lars n Jason got pissed up during playing, but this has been replaced now with just rocking the fuck out of their tunes. One of the tightest performances I have ever seen from ANY band was that night!

I saw nine inch nails headline the 2nd stage at glastonbury about 2000 and saw them a few weeks ago at nottingham but i was feeling ill so wasnt with it that night lol.
Decided to book a ticket for a week or so later at wolverhampton but that got postponed on the day until august 30th

Well, after much deliberation, looks like I won't be going to see Metallica in July

I just can't afford it Taking this house is pushing my limits, and Metallica will be an expensive gig - Ł50 for ticket (Ł40 ticket +Ł4.95 booking fee, + Ł2.95 postage fee!), plus travelling up there, plus whatever food/drink (gotta have a beer or two - but Wembley stadium will be chargin Ł5 a pint!!!!!) etc - could easily come away from that night spending sort of Ł60-Ł65!!!!!

I have already booked up Roger Waters for May, and Alice Cooper/Motorhead for November, so think I will have to leave it at that, and hope Metallica tour in the UK for the next album, which should be released this year or next....

Can't go wrong with that classic, but if you haven't heard their latest its a work of genius...
'Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned'

Takes a couple of listens, but it's quite stunning
