Not that it was cheap before covid. Got to see them in the student union in Cardiff last year think it was only £35 bargain. | |||

"I was going to the Metal Hammer awards a couple of years ago and was going up the Thames on the boat HMS Metal Hammer funny enough, all the bloody singer of 5 Finger Death Punch did was smoke my fags non stop. At one point I even said "you steal one more fag and you won't get to the O2" he then stopped while the singer of Clutch nearly fell on the floor laughing. But on a plus side I bumped into one of my mates and his dad was there and I got my photo with his dad, now that was a dream come true for me. I have it on a board along with me with Korn, Killswitch, Mike Patton, Motley Crew and a couple of others Cant remember the last time I paid to see anyone tbh, probably 15 years ago." That because you don’t go or just don’t have to pay? | |||

"Missing it so much. Literally the only things I do in terms of “going out” is gigs and cinema so this year has been horrible. My last gig was Lazuli in Chepstow just before life stopped, next one I have no idea any more because so many have been rescheduled twice already and I’m really confused! Tarja or Evanescence/Within Temptation maybe. No actually, Tarja got rescheduled again to even further in the future. So I really don’t know!" I’m using DL as my “hoping for” goal... but not booking anything else just for it to be postponed | |||

"Thankfully I don't have to pay. It would bloody cripple me haha My ex wanted to see Fall Out Boy in Cardiff a couple of years ago. It was sold out for some reason haha. We were fortunate enough to have a balcony to ourselves. And the band were actually really good live. Never thought I'd say that!" I’m very jealous... it costs me a fortune just in accommodation and travel, never mind the tickets... the joys of living in the back of beyond.. | |||

That was all a long time ago now but still know quite a few People and managers so get into a lot of gigs for free plus I played in bands which is where I met my mate, it was 6 months before I knew who's son he was and then that was only just by chance as his dad dropped him off late to a gig. He got out the car kicked it, called his dad a prick and said "I don't give a fuck who you were flying back" I nearly shit myself when I realised who he was hahaha. | |||

"My last gig was Slipknot in Cardiff with korn supporting (a long time ago now)! I was meant to see placebo 2 years ago but they postponed and I couldn’t make the new gig date. Also gutted I missed out on HIM’s final concert in Manchester which was on my birthday thanks to work. Really want to see Rammstein at some point but so far Muse has been my favourite band to see live- so glad tickets for troops hooked us up as they sold out so fast! " Saw Slipknot in Sheffield with my son a few years back, they were ace. Saw HIM back in the day (we were still at sixth form I think) and Ville Valo's voice is just Obvious you're a HIM fan with that username | |||

I still have a video on my old phone of me on Triviums tour bus oh and one of me on Avenge Sevenfolds bus playing PGA golf " My son would pay in blood to meet Trivium. Pull Harder on the Strings of your Martyr and Gunshot to the Head of Trepidation were the catalysts for him becoming a guitarist. As a 4yo, he had a little plastic toy guitar but he didn't like the pre programmed nursery rhymes it played. He asked me to make a strap for it, which I did out of an old belt and he used to watch the music videos that were DVDs extras on our Ascendancy album. Now he can play those songs as well as the band themselves and I get a little tear in my eye when I hear him play them. He's in a band now, had started gigging before Covid, recorded and released a single and is studying Music and Music Production at uni | |||

"Thankfully I don't have to pay. It would bloody cripple me haha My ex wanted to see Fall Out Boy in Cardiff a couple of years ago. It was sold out for some reason haha. We were fortunate enough to have a balcony to ourselves. And the band were actually really good live. Never thought I'd say that!" Took my daughter to her first gig to see fall out boy in Manchester, was a surprise till an hr before we left, think she was 12 at the time, I didn't really know the band just their latest album, they are bloody good live so much so I've got tickets for their hella mega tour with green day if it happens next year | |||

"Last gig was alterbridge at the O2 . They weren't as good as I hoped live.." End of a long US and European tour... and following Shinedown at their peak. Personally think they should have split the US and Euro tours with a couple of months break, they seemed tired | |||

"So if you’re anything like me, you’re massively missing going to gigs and festivals and hanging out with fellow rockers and metalhead... Who else here is a fan of loud guitars, mosh pits, head banging and hanging out with denim and leather clad weirdos like yourselves? And what were your last gigs and next gigs (loosely) planned?" Last ones were Halestorm, In this moment and New Years Day then Ghost, still hoping for the Ozzy gig going ahead and possibly the birthday massacre next year | |||

"We had loosely made plans to go to Download Festival . Been before?... and are you considering 2021?" Nope, always only had the money for a holiday or festival when younger and chose the holiday. We wanted to go this year as a band was headlining that was the favourite of my partners close friend who died a couple of years ago so we planned to go with a group of his friends. I'd love to go at some point though! | |||

I procrastinated about it for years then finally went and was instantly hooked... was like I’d finally found my tribe | |||

"Any bands that people wouldn’t recommend?... Only band I’ve seen that I thought were awful was Primus... it was a long time ago but honestly sounded like they were just throwing their instruments down the stairs " Breaking Benjamin acoustic it has Lacy sturm and a couple others. It's not heavy but it's pretty good. | |||

"Think the best live was Rob Zombie closely followed by slipknot, but for shear awesomeness was certainly the time I ended up in a Camden hotel with the deathstars.. I helped skinny with his dreads and we all drank much too much whisky " I would have to agree. Seen slipknot last year one hell of a stage show . Rob zombies was better. | |||
