WTF Motorhead

A little research has found that we're being charged 50% more than anyone else on the rest of the UK tour - £38 as opposed to £25 elsewhere. Promoters MCD have obviously converted what they're charging in Euros for Dublin straight to sterling. Sorry, Mr Desmond, it doesn't work that way... Don't rip off the Belfast fans who have stood by you for the past 30 years.

Motorhead ticket prices

Tickets for Motorhead's Ulster Hall gig are now on sale. At 38 notes they are a tad steep, to be polite about it. The Ulster Hall doesn't use TicketMaster, so tickets can be bought from the box office in Bedford Street, or that at the Waterfront - or your local ExtraVision! Check www.ulsterhall.co.uk for details.

Welcome back Motorhead

The legendary Lemmy and the mighty Motorhead return to Belfast on November 9, on the opening night of their already announced 16-date UK tour. It's at the Ulster Hall - where they last played five years ago. That was an awesome show, especially as PP and his snapper mate Murph had unprecedented backstage access and watched most of the show from behind the stage in the choir seats - a great vantage point to watch a truly professional metal act at work, and also to watch the audience's reaction (that was when Belfast 'metal' crowds knew how to fucking enjoy themselves - see my rant elsewhere on this blog and on http://www.belfastmetalheadsreunited.blogspot.com/).
BTW classic rock fans, the legendary Deep Purple also are to head our way, and also to the Ulster Hall, around the same time. Methinks it might be November 8...
