Tickets are on pre-sale now for $35.25 Canadian on Ticketmaster. This is the nearest show planned for 2011! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Tszura~ Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Oh, wow!!! I would love to see them, but I highly doubt we will be able to make the trip. We missed Rammstein for the same reason :( Gah! I wonder what prevents certain bands from playing in this area when they're already playing Toronto, and then CHicago. Hmph! Oh, well. I've seen some kick ass shows around here, so I certainly have nothing to complain about Edited June 6, 2011 by ~Tszura~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodStainedParadise Posted June 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Well, there have been rumours on their site that they are planning to tour further in 2012, so hopefully they will be back in the area early next year. I'm kinda hoping for that since I don't have an enhanced license... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen some kick ass shows around here, so I certainly have nothing to complain about To be honest, its because people around here dont go out to shows unless its the big name people, and even then its a risk of breaking even... When you come to Detroit expecting to play for a crowd and play in front of 12 people, its not exactly uplifting :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you come to Detroit expecting to play for a crowd and play in front of 12 people, its not exactly uplifting :( Exactly. The first time I saw The Birthday Massacre back in '07, there was only about 75 people at The Pike Room. It was kind of disappointing, considering how great the show was. And most of the people there were 14-16... Not the best concert crowd, imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you come to Detroit expecting to play for a crowd and play in front of 12 people, its not exactly uplifting :( Yeap, I've read many a band interview stating that Detroit either isn't lucrative enough, the crowd is hostile, or they're sick of being robbed and/or having equipment jacked. We pretty much only have ourselves to blame, except for that last one; we have crackheads to blame for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had the baby quite a few months ago, actually. All of the shows currently scheduled on their site are still occuring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I made the comment, I was thinking more about Rammstein. They're big, and I guess I assume they would draw a big crowd. Its for this assumption, that I was wondering why they wouldn't come to Detroit, further wondering if it had anything to do with how much the bigger venues were charging.

Simon Bar Sinister Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) Rammstein only played like 9 cities over here. given the sheer amount of equipment they have to carry, they tried to play cities that people in the surrounding region could somewhat easily roadtrip to.

DJ Nihil Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Within Temptation are a stellar band if you ever should get the chance to see them live! I saw them back on the 'Hottest Chicks in Metal' tour in Louisville, KY in 2007, was a stellar show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
