metal news round up

[headbanging_krusty]

hullo everybody just thought I would give u an update on the latest gigs and rumours that have been building up. neway lets get down to buisness. if u are a die hard heavy metal fan u should be at the leeds festival which happens on the 24th to 26th of august but if u cant stand camping go to gig on the green on the 25th but im going to leeds cos gun n roses and slipknot are there. there is also some other kick ass bands there like the foo fighters and prodigy. there is a very good metal band playin at the cathouse on sunday the 1st of septempber called vader and they are worth checkin out and it is only 8 quid to get in so its well worth it.also included in that month is they english psycho's raging speedhorn who are amazing and they play at the garage on the 28th. if u are thinking of going to see the tribute band mac sabbath , im telling u dont cos they are just a bunch of low life hippies and the singer who is supposed to sound like the prince of darkness himself (ozzy) doesnt sound like him at all. but the singer sounds like neil from that show the young ones and I laughed at him haha.Kiss are rumoured to be working on a new studio album with drummer Eric Singer and guitarist Tommy Thayer standing in for Criss and Frehley.

Ex-Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland has threatened to kick Fred Durst's ass if any of his riffs crop up on the new Limp Bizkit album.

The Eat The Day frontman said:"Those are still my riffs, and if they turn up somewhere besides the Eat The Day record there will be a problem!"

ps Good on ya wes.

neway thats all. if u want any info bout gigs email me at krusty240@yahoo.co.uk

HmmmmYes......Guns N' Roses at Leeds. OK, so it's only Axl from the original line-up, but it would still be coolz.

I would be sorely tempted to go, but I'm just not convinced they will show up.

But then I have a very poor track record when it comes to seeing G N R live. In 1992 I drove from Ayr to Manchester (now remember I was a poor student at the time)only to find out they had cancelled on the afternoon of the show. So I returned 1 week later, when, after a fantastic show by Faith No More, and a 3 hour (yup - 3 hours between sets) wait, they appeared - and what a fantastic show it was.

Then I tried to see them last year - June show was postponed til December, then, round about November time, it was cancelled. BAH.

So I've given up. The other thought is that if I see then now, it might spoil my opinion of them as a live band.

Have fun in Leeds, and do post a review here if G N R do play!
