They definitely didn't have any of their own crew on the tour. I worked one of the shows. That was the in house lampie.


Jeff is a real left field oddball. I won't go into specifics but he isn't the easiest fella to work with. Someone here said they couldn't hear his guitar well at times. He alternated between accidentally turning himself off on his pedal board and being louder than god when he turned back on. I was told this was normal at the shows.

Might have been a bit harsh on the venue in my last post. It was just a bit different really, not a huge fan of theatres for gigs generally as they're a bit sterile but the staff were bang on and it was a pleasant change to be somewhere so clean and well looked after! The drinking rules thing is definitely something you'd get used to if they did it more often.

Savage gig. Great setlist by Opeth. Ticked all the boxes. Sound was good, lights and show were on point.

Hallas were a nice support, would love to see them in a normal venue as a headliner tbh. Hard to get the crowd going when they're set-up like that.


Venue was nice but just doesn't suit metal. Whatever about not being able to bring a drink into the venue, or get out of your seat and rock out - I understand that. But to close the bars outside so you couldn't pop out for a quick pint or shot in a quiet moment was a bit of a balls.

Opeth still have it though. That was rocking

Limerick was fantastic. Voivod looked like they were having a blast playing on stage. Really enjoyed the openers too. Midnight were good but to be honest it was a bit one note for me, I was kinda done with them after a few songs.

I get the 2 bands doing a co headliner tour so doing the same set length but I think it would have worked better with voivod doing 75 and midnight doing 45 mins. Only a minor note though, plenty of the crowd seemed to be there for midnight.

Tickets on sale now from Dolans 15 euro plus booking fee. Ticket Link

Craic Sabbath are a Limerick based tribute to Black Sabbath who were featured in the acclaimed documentary "The Great Pretenders" which was shown several times on RTE. Both bands feature members from across the Limerick original music scene including Brigantia, Shardborne, Trenchknife and We Come in Pieces.

Playing this with Shardborne on the Friday. Lineup is great! Happy to see something cool happen in Galway and at that time of year its nice to have something to look forward to.

This God Complex tour has been cancelled for Ireland unfortunately. This Limerick date is now Worn Out headlining with tide7 supporting.

Looks like it was live free tour booking who were doing the Irish dates. That's Johnny McKees company. He's the Belfast lad who got blacklisted by loads of venues after he got put on the sex offender register and went off the rails uploading Facebook live videos going off on everyone who ever wronged him. There's another lad involved aswell so these could be his shows.

They haven't the best track record in pulling off the shows they've booked.

Shame as this looked to be a cool tour, would love to have made it up for the Dublin date.

I'd imagine it'll all be in the Roisin dubh, it looks to be ran by strange brew promotions according to the website and that's Gugai who books for the Roisin dubhs company.

Nice to see something cool happening out west. Hopefully I'll get up to some of it.

Really enjoyed the gig, maiden are always a solid show. Set list was fantastic. First time at malahide and it's a cool spot. I got an event bus in so there wasn't much walking or pricking around with having to get public transport which was nice for a change.

Was kinda funny seeing the band make mistakes, they're usually so on point. Guess they're human after all! New drummer wasn't fantastic - he absolutely destroyed a few bits by slowing down to a snails pace. You could see Adrian getting annoyed at it in Wasted Years and he flubbed the solo as a result.

Would love to see this show indoors. I think the production suffered from the large outside stage, no fault of the band there though.

Limerick was great! Nice enough crowd. All the bands were great and a nice break from the norm here.

Unfortunately I fell ill during the gig so had to head home straight after instead of staying out for pints and chats.

Looking forward to Limerick tonight!

Really looking forward to playing this! Been ages since we've played cork city!

I'll be there as usual! Playing with We Come In Pieces at 15.50 in the warehouse.

Looking forward to Sweets afterwards. They're fantastic but haven't gotten outside Limerick much yet so will be a treat for anyone travelling down.

Seen em in Limerick a good few times. They're fantastic. One of the better tributes around. Miles better than the Seattle grunge experience.
