How the fuck is selling someone's ticket to a once in a lifetime event (that they had already PAID for) doing them a favour? Seriously Tash, stop acting like you're the victim, it's pathetic.

i suggest that 3rd parties stay out of it Hardy, I am.

Got ya...

I thought the differences were between Morello and Zach, not Timmy C (aka yTimk, aka Tim Bob, aka Tim Cummerford).

I used to have it on vid - got it with purchase of the "The Ghost of Tom Joad" single years ago - you too?
My cousin never gave it back, glad I now have it on DVD.

Battle of Mexico City hey BRB? Don't think I know of that one... must acquire.

Peeps should check this ol' Rage classic clip if they haven't already:

Sleep Now In The Fire clip - where RATM caused the New York Stock Exchange to be delayed in opening - the first time EVER apparently....

Credit goes to Midnight Oil who did that in the 1980s! They didn't manage to shut down the stock exchange tho

Not until they release another wikkid album in my opinion.
I'm sure they go off live though, no doubt about the intensity of their body of work, but some new stuff would be well appreciated.

Yeah tickets say 8pm... but they don't allude to what happens at 8pm.... I'd guess it's just doors open - and idea on support/s?

Do they do a decent feed there gnat?

We were thinking of hitting up Squire's for dinner and drinks pre-Rage, but the Carron is h'obviously much closer to Festie.

Any Anti-Flag fans out there? Never heard of them myself, their wikipedia entry doesn't fill me with confidence:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Flag

Interested to hear what anyone has to say about them.

gnat · Post by **gnat** » Wed Jan 30, 2008 11:03 am

no idea direktor- just picked for proximity mainly

as long as there's ales!

glenny, we all get you a drink sir. sorted

white eagle, anti flag sounds like poo to me. rather drink beers. hehehehe

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Wed Jan 30, 2008 11:06 am

My mate heard Anti-Flag at the BDO - and said they sucked major balls... "Whiny, politically-charged punk try hards", were his words.

I won't be busting my ass to catch their set.
