I haven't respected metallicas love for money since well the black album days. They get a lot of things wrong but to their credit they also do a lot of things right. I just have no respect for people that hide behind smokescreens. I learnt as a teenager the best thing you can do is face the music and put ya hand up. I always say to people that we all fuck up in life, no one in life is infallible. It's our actions AFTER we fuck up that define who we are in my eyes.

That's not to say they are guilty as well. I just would have respected them more if they came out and either admitted it or refuted it, not just ignored it.

Absolutely fucking gutted! Flights and hotels already paid for cairns to Melbourne to Sydney. My whole annual holiday was based around this. Get better papa Het.

Thanks mate. Have always had a fear over the years something like this may happen . 15 years of travelling interstate for gigs, I've had a good run I guess..

Im mainly just devo that I really enjoyed hardwired , which was the first new release I've ever really loved since I got into em back in 94. Been hanging for this tour since the album dropped in 2016 and they aren't getting any younger. Shit happens j guess still nothing to what poor old mate copped on here with tool at the festival.

It must be pretty fucking bad for them to take this step and James lyrics and music helped a lot in my younger days so most important thing is his health.

Just booked multiple Cog shows in Byron/ Brisbane end of year instead. Pretty happy with that silver lining. My mate works for heavy mag, said If I book flights I'm his +1.

I'll take it!

In an apparent administration mistake they actually donated $750,000 to the actual fires, not the services that put the fires out.
