So now Helmet is part of this tour. Not having KMFDM sucks bigtime!
I think KMFDM Pulled out because of Sin’s presence, no?
They say it was a visa issue. Don’t care, I’ll take Helmet over KMFDM any time.
I haven’t seen Helmet so I guess that’s a plus. I only know unsung…what other tunes are as good?
Fuck all opening bands! I’m just stoked the show is back on!
Sin is still in the band?
Not only is Helmet one of the best and tightest bands I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen them at least five times, always in a headlining capacity), but their catalog is chock full of solid albums. Check out the following songs:
In The Meantime
Turned Out
Milquetoast
Wilma’s Rainbow
Just Another Victim (w/ Everlast from House of Pain – it still rocks all these years later)
Dude, you’re gonna come to me in a few hours and thank whatever god you worship that someone took the time to school you on the beauty of Helmet.
Yeah, Helmet is great. I’ve seen them many times over the years.
I saw this. I’m bummed that KMFDM aren’t going to be there. I don’t listen to helmet. I got my money back on my last tickets. Man, I’ve got a bad feeling about this second attempt. But shit, I love the MIATTTT album - it’s my favorite, but I’m wondering if they’re playing it beginning to end?
KMFDM is kind of ho-hum now anyway. A bummer, but since Steve and Jules left, it doesn’t feel the same. Steve went back to PIG. Last time I saw KMFDM, Ohgr blew them off the stage.
I 100% agree Kaos…
Yes.
I just chatted with him.
He’s stoked to finally get out and do live shows again.
Certainly not.
Whenever they tour for or give tribute to a past album or era (or even a new one for that matter) they just pull a few songs to play. I suspect that, in addition to “So What” and “Thieves” which are standard guarantees, they’ll give us “Breathe” and “Burning Inside”… maybe. I’m not fretting over any details, to be honest. At this point, I’m just happy for the chance to drink overpriced beer with my homies and watch Al and the crew go through the motions. But I do think this tour is gonna be amazing regardless.
I was looking forward to KMFDM. I’ve never seen them live…
Well, shit.

I’ve been listening to the greatest hits…thanks for the song list. I do know about 3 or 4 tunes…I’m liking it!
Fixed it.
Too soon?

Typical. I just received an email saying that my tickets are still valid for the new Ministry show. (I had requested a refund from LiveSatan). Fucking LIVENATION scumbags.
@rev_skarekroe
It looks like I still have our tickets I bought last year. Not sure if you remember me saying I grabbed you a ticket. What do you think? You in?
Probably?
It’s not until October, God only knows what will happen between now and then.
