Also getting Jeff Martin again next month

So they're not all to me taste (in fact little of them are) but jeez its a shredder's dream come true. So which shows will you guys be attending?

It's a fantastic time through October and November. I abit bummed that im going to miss Fear Factory cos i'll be in America next month...but im sure they will be down soon enough.

At the moment I have my ticket for Cannibal Corpse, Nevermore and Gigantour once the tickets will be released. I didn't realise how quick Dave set the whole thing up...I thought we would have been waiting til the start of next year to see the Gigantour.

Ministry will be another great band to see, I heard the tickets are around $70 but im not fused, there awesome.

dont forget before this there was a critical metal drought

Yeah which makes this all the sweeter

There's also Avenged Sevenfold tomorrow night - that's a sellout at the Roundhouse - should kick some ass live.

Butterfly Effect in October too.

And I've just heard Tool are playing the ent cent on 24/01/07 - on top of the Big Day Out.

What's the bet only one of those bands will actually come to Perth...

Yeah we're not getting Lamb of God with Killswitch and Unearth which sucks. Or Gigantour...

Oh i see, I didn't realise you live in Perth.

It's good news about Tool, i hope there still touring with Meshuggah.

i wish it was a little later that tool announced. I GOTTA GET SOME MONEY FOR TOOL!

Hmm now I need to decide whether I take the punt that Tool are coming ot Perth BDO, or if I should make sure I get tickets to the over east shows...

Didn't Tool tour the whole of Australia for the Lateralus tour back in 2002?, im sure you'll have nothing to worry about. There not the kind of band to leave everyone in the dark on the west coast.
