What about system of a down, slipknot, (old) linkin park...?

Haven't listened to a good chunk of their new stuff; music has gotten away from me in the past year or two

But just gave it a look there and it's a good tune

Must give the rest of the album a listen after work

Yes,all our faves,disturbed sound of silence is on repeat play in our car.I'd also add rage against the machine ,pantera,Ramstein and enter shariki into the mix.

Generally anything that isn't played on the radio,Ireland is so mainstream it's hard to stomach it at times.

Can't believe some of the artists mentioned here Rory gallacher?c'mon..

Whitesnake did. Leppard sucked! Their setlist was appalling for the music they have recorded. Whitesnake should have stayed on..... Quite the opposite to the 2009 gig!

Great list from the OP, I like and have seen a good few of the bands there.

I've been to Donington in 84, 86 and 87, Knebworth 85.

I've actually met some artists from your list... Accept, Yngwie, Michael Schenker, Blackfoot, Ronnie Dio, Gary Moore, Phil Lynott, Ozzy.... Still have my old autographed tickets.

Dunboyne & Dublin

Never saw Lizzy live but Thunder & Lightning is brilliant, along with others in my vinyl collection.

Metallica, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Rage Against the Machine, Smashing Pumpkins, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Black Crowes, Stone Temple Pilots, Coroner, Suicidal Tendencies, Kyuss, Motorhead, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Rival Sons, Temple of the Dog, the list goes longer but then I get mellow with Mick Flannery, The Frames, Rudimental, Faithless, Florence and the Machine, Damien Dempsey, The Dubliners, John Lee Hooker, The Blues Brothers, Kaleo, Faithless, Ed Sheeran, etc.

Thank God for music, to make this journey so much better than it would be without it
