No, but I'm in Brisbane, but when I finally pulled the finger out went to buy a ticket for the Tivoli, they were sold out. I have been to the State Theater though, but not sure how a metal gig there works. I got in trouble for trying to sneak in a beer. That was about 12 years ago.
The Tivoli would be a similar venue to where they normally play in Sydney (Enmore Theatre), I think Tivoli is a bit smaller though from when I saw Ghost there. Good venue though, apart from that stupid fence which makes it hard to get on the floor when it is packed.

I have been to The State Theatre a few times, for work things, for Dita Von Teese and Louis Theroux. So a metal gig is a big change. Opeths last gig in 2017 was at The Opera House though, so maybe this is the new norm?

It seems to crazy to me that the first Tool gig sold out really fast but this second one isn't. Kinda glad I am going to the 2nd one.

Im in Perth. This backwater only gets 1 show, was surprised that there were tickets left after they had been on sale for a fair while. Stoked.
Will get last-minute Maiden ticket on the cheap I'm hoping.

Not sure if this has been posted before... if not enjoy... it's somewhat distracting the video.. for two obvious reasons :D


This Sons Of Apollo song is pretty damn good

Portnoys drumming is so "smooth in transition" .. absolute beast who makes it seem so easy.

Just like Goodbye Divinity (their other track), I feel Jeff Soto is the wrong vocalist for this band though. He lacks the punch, power, and aggression in his voice that would take this band to another level.

This is what Dexys Midnight Runners were talking about when they said they want to "Come on Eleine"
