I know there is a thread somewhere in the main forum discussing their live performance these days and the gig is mentioned but there is nothing in the gig discussion as far as know with specific details, etc so for anyone going, I thought I'd update everything here...

Thanks for the stage times. Very handy. Don't know a whole lot about 'em tbh but I guess we won't be seeing Maiden storm the stage after 'Doctor Doctor'? Very Happy

I'm pretty certain UFO play for more than 75 minutes, if the last tour was anything to go by.

Get your hands on 'Strangers in the Night' Live album, its essential in my opinion, a fanastic listen.

Yeah, thats probably just approx. stage times...Hopefully they go on abit longer.

EDIT: Set-list looks good from last night anyway, I'm happy enough with it. Should be good.

Unless those songs are filled out with solo's that looks like about 75 mins of material. Good setlist though. Looking forward to it.

Will definitely be in for 8pm, as i think it is great to see Irish Metal bands supporting the Bigger Bands for gigs.
This should be encouraged, would like to see this as the norm want more Irish Metal bands getting more experience and exposure at all big gigs.

More power to Twisted Wrath ask to get more support gigs Smile

UFO were incredible tonight. Really great sound and I thoroughly enjoyed the setlist. Mogg's vocals were superb - better than his memory anyway Laughing Really great to hear all those classics again and the new ones blended in well for the most part. Decent sized crowd there as well, more than I expected. Special thanks to the guy on the door who gave me the free ticket Very Happy

Twisted Wrath did a good job opening as well. I was at the right hand side of the stage for them at the start and it was all bass. Much better sound on the left. Seem to have won over some of the crowd.

Had a great time opening the gig, although i heard from many about the sound issues, cant say i noticed too much on stage.

Thanks to everyone who watched the set!

UFO were incredible.
