Could you get by on the cheap or is there loads of travel costs to it?
Also anyone knows what the beer/food prices are around.
This is most interesting
Its not too bad. Dublin to Eindhoven is the best option with Ryanair - couple of euros in the bus from airport to station in the town centre. Venue is a 15 min walk or so. Some cheap hotel options available in the centre. I think there is a hostel but a bit further out.
Beer and food prices are similar to here in the centre - offies are cheap for booze - the venue uses the token system - think it worked out about 4 euros for 400ml of beer or something like that. You can get a pass-out and get stocked up at regualr intervals during the day.
Sound man, much appreciated |

| Andy I got a single room in the Budgethotel de Zwaan for €28 a night. Less than a 10 minute walk from the venue. There's a supermarket around the corner from the venue selling cans for about 60c. Last year we used to go out and smuggle 6 in at a time. Overall you can do the whole thing fairly cheaply. |

Ah nice one Dave. Seems to be me,Wiggz and The enforcer heading over.
Must snap up that hostel, we can room share again like at low end ha.
Cans at 60c is extremely sound too. Really looking forward to seeing Asphyx again.
Stick us down for a ticket aswell Scobes, cheers. |

Flights booked! 
I said I would travel from Dublin this year but couldn't resist the cheap flights from Belfast with easyjet. Dublin to Amsterdam was 120 euros return with Aerlingus, Dublin to Eindhoven 90 euros with Ryanair, but Belfast to Amsterdam was just £52 return. They are now doing 2 flights a day so the times are great too.
Fingers crossed for no bad weather fuck-ups! |

By the way this isn't actually God Dethroned's last show ever.
They are now playing their last show on the 70,000 tonnes of metal cruise  |

| If they're gonna do an album exclusive set, ignoring Schizophrenia is just plain rude. |

Sound good to these ears then!
Will book flights on some stage in September.
Don't want to be entangled in airport chaos again though.
Can easily write an essay about the last year's adventure ov dess, when me and Dawals had to miss 3 flights or so, pass the security twice and fly to Brussells instead of Amsterdam and pay 200 for taxi ov satan. Arrived to the venue just 5 minutes before Vitus hit the stage. Will remember this forever as a monument of "die hardness". |
