re: Metallica in Bangalore - 30 Oct 2011: Possible TBHP Meet

As mobike008 already stated, quite a few TBHPians from Hyderabad will attending the show. We intend to reach the night before the show i.e. Saturday 29 Oct 2011.

How about having a TBHP Meet either Saturday evening or Sunday morning before the show?

Cheers

P.S: Please check this site for travel options http://www.forwhomthebusrolls.com/

Disclaimer: I'm linked with the site in any way. Just liked the concept.

P.P.S: @Mayank: They are supposed to come in the first week of Oct. So you still have some time.

BTW this is what you can expect at the show

re: Metallica in Bangalore - 30 Oct 2011: Possible TBHP Meet

For all those making it for the concert from outside Bangalore be prepared for a treat at the venue (if you have attended any of the earlier concerts I am sure you would have got a flavour). We have been waiting for Metallica to come for almost 10 years and each there is a roumour that Metallica will be performing.

Not just the concert venue but there will tons of cars with some great ICE blasting Metal and thats a treat in itself.

Mosh pits, insane amounts of noise, great music and the best part of it METALLICA.

Dont know the point of this post but I just got very excited .

re: Metallica in Bangalore - 30 Oct 2011: Possible TBHP Meet

^^ Awesome! I agree- these "Metallica is coming" rumours have surfaced every year since I think 1999.

Quick clarification: are we allowed to carry simple cameras (non-mobile phone) into the venue? I am planning to capture the entire roadtrip (and post a travelogue, obviously ) and it would suck if I were asked to deposit it somewhere at the actual concert!

I have seen people carrying cameras but not sure if they were allowed or if they smuggled it in since I have never taken one. If it is slim enough I am sure you can get it in without the security guards finding out in case they dont allow it. I guess you will find out when the ticket comes home - it should have all the do's and donts on it.

It really helps if you have a good mobile camera. If I manage some good pics I could send them to you as my mobile camera is pretty good and I have been itching to use it

Re: Metallica in Bangalore - 30 Oct 2011: Possible TBHP Meet

- Hey NC are you going for Metallica? I am roadtrippin' and mighty excited about it!

BTW I checked and cameras are NOT allowed at the venue. Cellphone cams are fine, though. I wouldn't advise trying to smuggle in a camera either- imagine if they boot you from the venue- how sad would THAT be?

Buncha us are taking off from Pune on Thursday or Friday and meandering our way into Bangalore by Saturday. There is apparently a pre-Metallica gig on the 29th with Bangalore's biggest bands performing, at Kyra. Be there with bells on!

Disclaimer: I am *not* associated with Kyra, Metallica or any of the Bangalore bands for that matter

Well now that you asked, I was linked to them on "The Same Thinking Plane Level" till the time they announced the prices. Imagine they are asking Rs.5,150 for a return bus ticket between Hyderabad - Bangalore when the same is available anywhere between 1600-2000. This was the moment I disowned them for their utter stupidity and told that they can go to "hell"

P.S: Where is Kyra?

Good day people!

Just booked mine. Please share any info on Metallica tributes going on in Bangalore all through this month. So how many BHPians are going to smash the 'Grounds' on the D-Day?
