Great news that show in Whelans years ago that I think Sentinel and DME had to step in to save was amazing. Liked Pentagram before that but that gig gave me a new level of appreciation for the band.

They have poster up on the Distortion and DME pages if someone wants to post it here and I can add it to the main post as I have no idea how to add it in here from the web.

Unfortunately I'll probably be away for this.

Just a heads up for anyone though, last week Pentagram (or Bobby really) became a bit of an internet meme on social media, could sell out quick because people want to see the 'crazy old guy' fronting a metal band.

Can't see people who don't know anything about the band or metal paying E40 to look at an old man....?


Yea, the meme will be dead and gone by Friday. Nobody is going to this for that reason.

Should be good, not seen them since that 2009 gig. Something was on the Saturday of that weekend, was is Gospel of the Horns for the Invictus anniversary? I think that was that year.

GotH was the Friday night and Pentagram the Sat, if I remember correctly.

If it was the same weekend, GOTH was definitely a Saturday (possibly the same week as the first Arthur Guinness Day), cause it was an all-day job.

I missed that gig. Really think I should have gone in retrospect, but sure. Maybe there was a valid excuse but who knows.

OPoD and WotH were playing in Enniskillen.

GotH was the Sat and Pentagram was the Sunday so.

The Gospel Anniversary gig was in the Music Centre and Pentagram was in Whelans. Yeah it was definitely a Saturday and a Sunday because I remember being wrecked in work on the Monday.

Fucking hell. I remember that alright.

I remember being at GotH so we must've played Enniskillen on the Sunday night, to a rapturous crowd of about 8 people.

7 if I'm not mistaken. Gargantuan's groupie left after they played.
