What happened in Ireland?

Short story short, Megadeth was playing some festivals in Europe back in the spring, and Dave forced Rotting Christ and Dissection to leave the bill because they're Satanists.

EDIT: This isn't the Ireland thing....

ah right i remember now.
/Me leaves MX for today :wave:

That really is bull****.

You can't force your beliefs on people and make bands leave because they contradict what you believe.

Exactly. It was just a really overzealous and disrespectful thing to do.

Refresh me on this Ireland thing.

Apparently you can. Dave did.

He didn't force his beliefs on them, but he did discriminate against them, however, it's only natural for someone to not like their enemy [and yes, Christians and Satanists are basically enemies].

Yeah that's kind of lame. But eh, I don't know about immature.

Megadeth was playing a show in Ireland when he raised the Irish flag and said "**** the IRA, Give Ireland back to the Irish" or something to that effect. Dave was forced offstage or something. I'm not real sure really, I saw it on VH1 some time back. It was on the CTE tour if I'm not mistaken.

Not really, if you go by what Satanism really is.

But that's not the point, its a really crappy thing to do at a festival where it should be about the music. What happened to tolerance? Jesus wouldn't kick them off lol.

:lol:

I happen to know that Jesus loves his satanic metal. :cool:

I have been waiting on my friend to sign on to send me the remaster of Youthanasia (Song). I can't wait anymore. Anyone have it? I will love you for many, many years if you send it to me. AIM - InMyDarkestHourr. Yes there are two R's.

I dont understand why they would remaster youthanasia, its not exactly bad quality or anything.

EDIT: 900 posts, whoo :chug:

Yes really if you know what Satanism is. Most of Satanism [including the name] was designed to mock Christianity.

He probably pisses himself at what they say about him.

I'd say paganism is the opposite of Christianity, not Satanism.

Yes, this is true. I betcha if you went to heaven you'd see a bunch of death, thrash, and black metal albums everywhere and there would be Jesus with giant headphones attached to a giant shelf system and he'd be just rippin' on his air guitar. :evil: :lol: :lol:

After all, we all know he's the son of god and all kids are rebellious.

I didnt see that, i would like some linkage.

the link is [URL=http://www.mi.edu/]www.mi.edu[/URL]

As it would turn out he is one of the guest teachers at that college. I've heard rumors that when the metal workshop is going on, he is the one teaching it and you can actually sit in with him. :amaze:



The place to download it is in the bottom right-hand corner

I saw Megadeth at Gigantour on Wednesday. They had a good sounding show, but they have literally no stage presence, and their set-list wasn't much to my appeal. Anthrax destroyed them.

Compared to Anthrax, not many bands have stage pressence. I think Megadeth's stage pressence rules though. The way Dave just stands there in all his awesomeness, it eminated (sp) off him for sure! Maybe it's just like that for me though, I don't know.

I find Megadeth's stage presence is very strong. I don't know what it is, but they seem so strong and comfortable on stage.

:amaze: are you serious? I saw them at Gigantour and they had horrible stage presence. They rarley moved and Dave talked 2 times to the crowd. I though they were going to be way better, but I was wrong. Anthrax on the other hand had amazing stage presence. They were always headbanging, pumping up the crowdn running around and having a great time. They blew Megadeth away, even though I though Megadeth would do that to them.

Their stage presence was great when I saw them at Gigantour. What venue did you go to Veedbok?

Their stage presence is great.

I saw them in Calgary, they played a bunch of new s[size=2]h[/size]itty songs, which angred me, and they olny played like 5 good old songs.

Yeah, when I saw them in SD. They played great, but Dave really mainly just stood around. He only said a few things, nothing to really fire up the crowd that much.

When I saw Gigantour, during all the instrumental parts they'd move around stage, like MacDonough would move to the other side and headbang, then he's run over to the left and headbang, etc etc...he was headbanging for most of the show, actually. You don't need to jump off your amps and throw your monitors around to get a crowd into a show.

Dave doesnt like to talk methinks when i seen megadeth he said you aint come to hear my speak you have come to see and hear megadeth. he only spoke about twice when i seen them too lol
