Heaven and Hell

[binnie]

I'd like to see that line up over here too.

Down are so good it's not even true....

[binnie]

I think its brave of Iommi an co to take Motorhead on tour with them.

They haven't played together for years, is there a danger that they could get shown up by the mighty 'Head on the early dates of the tour?

Interesting for you to say that.

I went out to see a Sabbath/Motorhead/Tiamat lineup here in Portland back in '95...Forbidden tour...

Tiamat's first song was REALLY fucking good (they were out on their Wildhoney stretch at the time), but the rest of it was kinda lame...

Motorhead was FUCKING LOUD...seriously, my ears just fuckin' HURT for a week afterwards...but it was MIGHTY...

Sabbath came out and played loud, but reserved by comparison - and it was just perfect after the sonic assault I'd just received thanks to Lemmy, Phil and Mikk...

Motorhead and Sabbath again?

SIGN ME THE FUCK UP!

And Down is going to be SOOOOOOO more fun than what Tiamat was...

Christ, it's a stoners fucking wet dream of a concert...lmao

Damn right, that's why I hope they bring that tour over here.

Although Motorhead can fill most of the 2000-3000 seaters over here on their own, so unless they want an arena tour I don't see it happening.

And without the "Black Sabbath" name, can't see them getting an arena tour.

That being said, I'll go see Heaven and Hell regardless of the line-up!

I'd think with Down, Motorhead, and a Dio fronted Sabbath (regardless of what it's billed as), they could do some pretty good outdoor business...

Maybe in the States, but not here.

Black Sabbath without Ozzy would only appeal to a very limited audience here. In fact, sad as it is, I asked everybody I worked with who Dio was, I bet there isn't one of the who would know.

Over here I see Heaven and Hell doing the big clubs 3,000+ capacity. Suits me fine, that music will be killer in an intimate venue...

Maybe you work with a bunch of queers...

They certainly have music tastes which suggest so.....

I am gonna try to get tix to the NYC show. Their supposed official US tour is not until August or September, and if they have some kind of blowup, that might not happen.

So I wanna see them as soon as possible.

[bastardog]

I hope they at least make a pit stop to take a leak here.
Dio/Sabbath are a dream concert. I know here there are a crowd of 2500 - 3000 fans that will pay anyprice to see them........but maybe that isn't enough for a producer to take the tour here...

[Mr. Vengeance]

Looks like Montreal for me. They ought to add an Ottawa show!!!

[Hardrock69]

I have a friend who is scheming on how to afford to go to two Canada shows.

Argh.

I hope I get to see them. If not in NYC, then later in the year.

[Mr. Vengeance]

Hardrock...From what I read at Hardradio.com, there will be a show in Ottawa as well. So East -Canadian shows in Quebec City, Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto on the first leg.

Sabbath has always loved Canada, and vice-versa....

[ppg960]

Perhaps Winnipeg as well!
We have a brand new arena here Called the MTS Center. It's been attracting some major shows in the last year with great crowds.

Binnie, where is "There" anyway??

[Matt White]

I'll be at the DETROIT show.....

DETROIT has always supported SABBATH...& MOTORHEAD
