kinggggg

wonder why they booked the tour so far in advance?

stupid leaves eyes ruin everything though

kreator and king diamond will rule! why the fuck are they selling tickets 6 months in advance?i hope they're not going to be like $65 a ticket just to stand in the palladium.

$28 is the price at the palladium.

crazy they're annoucing this like 10 months before it happens! can't wait though, this will surely a night full of Magic.

HEADS ON THE WALL!!!!!!!

$28 bucks is totally worth it for the King. Leaves Eyes on another huge US tour? Are they really big in Europe or something?

Anthny said:

They're big, but not huge...their management is probably just trying to wedge their own product into the void left by Nightwish's drama and subsequent lack of touring.

And yes, 28 bucks is like nothing to see Kreator, to say nothing of the King.

holy crap, I'm soooooooooooo there!!!

10 months and counting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy crap, thats gonna be a long 10 months...

NIIICE!!!

Just wish it wasn't so fucking far away.

ugmm yeah, that totally made my day.........hehee

that and having to wait are the only negative things about this show

If this means no Sodom/ Destruction/ Kreator tour next year, I'm gonna be ripshit. Perhaps just Sodom and Destruction... Either way, killer headliners on this. Something to look forward to.

I can already smell the first BBQ of 2008.

Not so hard to figure out. The tickets are on sale 10 months in advance so that the agency who booked the tour can bank the money for all these tour dates and make money off the interest or invest in something else. First Row Talent booked this tour. He's an ass, but really smart. 40 shows.. add it up. Great for the agency, bad for the promoter.. which is probably why cheap ass Bernie doesn't have the show. God forbid he loses money on ANY ticket sales not bought from him or the opening acts.

nice. i'm so glad this isnt going to gay ass Marks Showplace.

this is so true

minus Leaves Eyes, this is gonna be a tight as fuck tour.
