| That was most definetly gig of the year!!! Best gig I've been to in a good long time. Excellent set list. Good mix of the old & new. Stu Block is doing a fantastic job of replacing Matt Barlow. He has a hell of a voice. Looking forward to the gig in Belfast tonight! |

Brilliant gig, nabbed one of Schaffer's plec, the man was flawless last night, not a note wrong. New singer doing well with the ripper/barlow songs.
Thanks H, what a show, good crowd made it better too. |

Massive gig!!! Great setlist 
The lead solos needed to be boosted as the were drowned by Schaffer's guitar all night. I think the singer only sang 1 Ripper era song. He's a good frontman but he's definitely no Matt Barlow. That's only nitpicking really & all that's good about metal was there in abundance last night.
Nice one H !!! |

[quote="H"]Quote: Thanks to all that came out for it. Good crowd though thought they'd do more. Tuesday night between Wacken and Bloodstock was never going to be ideal though.
Aye & after a bank holiday weekend. |

Great gig, they did the best version of Watching Over Me that I've ever heard. Absolva were great too, loved their stuff especially Code Red. I took a bunch of pictures at the show if anyone wants to see them = )
Hope I managed to catch the night well for those who couldn't make it. Great job D.M.E and button factory for getting them to finally play Ireland.
Full picture set below.
