Official, MetallicA are coming for the BDO 04!!!

Forums: The Bar,

so i guess tickets will be around $400 then.

haha, more like you'll have to buy a separate ticket other than your BDO ticket

ha!

i don't really think Metallica fit with Big Day Out

Hmm... might be a good re3ason to finally stop going to BDOs. Hope they get some good stuff to make up for a monumentally (is that a word?) bad headline act.

//monumentally (is that a word?)

Yes indeedy.

Excellent.

I thought it was odd having the mentally thing at the end... but couldn't think of any other way to put it.

Yeah they spend all there money on a burned out metal band and ask NZ bands to play for free probably

the whole vibe of the big day out will be weird, to many boguns i don't think i'll be going, Rippon will be a better festival next year if it's gonna be anything like the last one

There's their budget gone.

metallica suck.

but on the up-side, they're also a bunch of wankers, i feel better about disliking a crap band that are wankers than a crap band that are nice and down to earth

All the poor bogan kids will be trying to avoid their dads all day. Metallica would, if anything, bring up the average attendee-age.

I'll hold judgement on the BDO till after the lineup gets announced. At the moment it's not looking that interesting

They need the BigDayOut.

dont need to make an offensive comment but the BDO is festival "dominated by scumballs and there skank-ho bitch girlfriends" maybe napalm and mustard gas will sort those mofos out, then the REAL meaning of the BDO can be made - 7 years ago the BDO was a festival on individuality and expression of freedom, but now its 80% glassons/hannahs slappers and there trendy "pretty boy" g/fs thats why mustard gas and napalm is nessecary

Dude... 7 years ago, you were 16 or so. Were you going to BDOs? If so - then YOU were one of those young people who don't know shit... if not, then you don't know shit.

The Big Day Out has been an excellent fun time for the last 5 or so times that I have been there. If you can't handle being around people who aren't exactly the same as you, then DON'T LEAVE YOUR HOUSE. Numbnuts.

Eddie rocks.

I second that.

Weren't Metallica supposed to play BDO a couple of years ago or something but they said no since they weren't gonna get enough money?

i heard that if they didnt get 8 million dollars they werent gonna play at next years BDO

Yay!

pssshhhhh... 'yay' is all u can say.... FUK YEAH!!!!!!!!! :D

for all the shit metallica have put their fans through in the last 10 or so years, i'd still be keen to see them, as one of the best metal bands ever on the planet, their first five albums were all classics, so it's hardly surprising they couldn't keep it up forever ,and as for all the shit with napster, perhaps there just getting senile......they have been around for more than 20 years now.....

and as to whether they'd fit in at BDO, i think it's impossible for a band not to fit in.....last year - Kraftwerk, Janes Addiction, Foo Fighters, Underworld, Sparta, Xhibit, Concord Dawn .. . i mean thats pretty 'full spectrum' if you ask me..

and anyway.. it's a stadium gig, so why not have big pompous stadium rock bands....

and there will be more white trash for the rest of us clean cut city folk to laugh at

thats was this years BDO buddy

// so why not have big pompous stadium rock bands....

WEEZER!!! They should soooo get Weezer.

I don't see Weezer as a headliner, I thought the same with Foo Fighters.
A headliner I think of 'big' bands.
But its possible Weezer will come.

anyone who went to this years bdo and didn't see kraftwerk should be shot.. now thats a headline act. .. once in a lifetime experience

awww.....Weezer would be brilliant...

aaaaaaaawww i dun see fade to black in there :(

well they change it a bit every nighr

is it just me, or is there someone else who doesnt like metallica? coz i really don't.

I'm not into them either.

then get the fuk out! :)

i'm 23. when i was 15 i REALLY liked mettalica. now i don't, i have grown....moved on if you will. this years BDO out was the best one in years so i made the effort to save the coin to travel up from deapest darkest south canterbury. i'd have to say that metallica would give me second thoughts about attending next year....DOES NO-ONE REALISE THAT THEIR LATEST SONG IS SHIT!!!~!???
if they do come i hope there is a really wicked kiwi band on another satge....i'd rather watch that than some over rated, too old, metal wash outs and their white trash bogan fans.
*sigh* glad i got that out of my system

FUck all u faggot shit eating scums, non of u deserves to listen to metallica anyway, i do be happy u fuck wits don't come to bdo. Though i had to admit that metallica shouldn't come to bdo and should have their own concert. Cause so many fuckwits like u fucks and lil teeny boppers are gonna be there.... there, i said my piece!

talking of washed up. . ... i see you still like pennywise and NOFX chewdogg.. but you've grown out of metallica... oh well. . .different strokes for different folks :)

there we go....an educated appraisal by the EXACT time of gormless idiot that i'd want to avoid at the BDO

chewwdog, get your red fred durst style hat the fuck outta here, end. :)

on that day this country will have a bright light shining down on it.

OMFG! this is the best news i've heard all year! I am so happy, i had a really fucking bad day but now i'm so fucking happy, joyful whatever the fuck you want to call it, i don't care im so happy!!!!

Metallica at BDO'04! aFUCKENman to that!

hey timaru is a haven for metal throw backs...bleached mullets, acid wash jeans and white sneakers. they all like metallica. i had no access to punk untill i went to dunedin, so that why i listen to (old) pennywise and NOFX.
as for the fred durst hat....well! how do you know i'm not a bald man with sun burn!?

it's okay .. i suppose we have go cut you a bit of slack, growing up in timaru and all... i'm not dissing, it just seemed to me that pop/skate punk was more juvenile than metal, thats all.. of course, i might be wrong..

actually i think it's the juvenile nature that i like! i work in boring ass, middle of the road radio so at the end of it i just like to cut loose with something that i don't have to stress about and that will keep me happy!
i like being happy :)

*clapps* finally found the 'reply to this post' botton!

well i AM from timaru.
it even takes me a while to find my own ass with both hands

Metallica are thrash legends... so what if there new stuff isn't so great!! They could survive off any 1 of their first 4 albums... they're set in stone

None of your 'current rock/metal bands' can get within half a mile of their success... check yourself

Chewdogg u trendy milk boy!!!! If u get attack from behind at the bdo don't be suprised. (The reason u will be attacked from behind is cause i don't know if ur a big dude or not, since i don't want to inflict uneccessary bodily harm to myself :P)

you'd attack me from behind because you want a taste of my sweet sweet ass. don't try and cover it up with concerns about your personal safety.

love you too hon'
kiss kiss

oh and while i remember, and just before i go down to the local MILK BAR (WTF!!???)
I'd just like to point out that i OWN all the earlier metallica albums....the only one i don't have is st anger
(because it's crap)

just cause i prefer punk doesn't mean i don't listen to metal
