I really hope the guys come to Belfast, it would be a dream come true. The only thing is that the Airbrake website doesn't have the gig advertised. I hope this will soon be rectified. I have tickets for Glasgow but I'd love to see the guys in my own home town as well!  |

the spring and airbrake s actually a bar/nightclub. it holds maybe 500 or so. we are talking intimate. bands like soulfly and 36 crazyfists have played there, as well as local bands. i'm just so excited about it. and it should be easy to meet the guys since i know where the exits are. i've lost count of how many bands i've met who've played here...  |

Cannot wait to see them there, it's a good size as you can get right up close to the band.
You can get tickets from Zavvi in Belfast city centre.
The Spring and Airbrake is going to be packed! |

The Spring and Airbrake is an ok venue. Sound is usually terrible and when its packed its impossible to move in - but I don't care. Extreme are coming back to Belfast.
I'm so looking forward to this gig. I'm a long time fan and the previous times they played in Belfast, they rocked. _________________ Andy

Yep, my 4th time also. Its a shame about that dirty great column in the middle of the stage. I've played there before and it is just an annoyance.
I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about Sunday. _________________ Andy

| Can any of you Belfast locals please tell me where is the best place to park near the venue? That will still be open after the show is over? I'm not too familiar with the area, I've only been to Belfast a couple of times. The only place I've ever parked is in the multistorey behind the Holiday Inn... |

there's a bit of street parking around the venue itself. The venue is on a block so to speak and you should be able to park down any one of those streets. It'll be Sunday so parking will be free but go early just in case. _________________ Andy

Just back from the show. I just want to say how fantastic Extreme are. We may be small but we were loud.
Setlist was similar to the other shows on this tour only they played Warheads in its entirety tonight.
Thank you Gary, Nuno, Pat and Kevin - thanks for coming to our small city and don't forget us next time around. _________________ Andy

awesome...completely awesome...i'm blown away by how great extreme were last night. they put their heart and soul into their performance. i managed to meet them before the gig, watch the soundcheck - as invited inside by nuno - and meet them all again afterwards. they are the nicest guys ever. i met them before in '91, but i was 13 years old and in shock. this was wonderful. thanks for playing belfast guys, and i hope you come back soon.

This show was too amazing for words. Just...wow. You know? My friend and I had been at the Dublin M&G and Nuno put us on the guest list for the Belfast show too and we met them again afterwards. Not only are they the best live performers I have ever seen, but they are the most genuine, lovely people I have ever met - absolute gentlemen. Admittedly, I was mostly too dumbfounded to speak but, my God, I will never, as long as I live, forget Nuno bending down to kiss my hand before he left the stage at the end of the show. Such a musical genius, and so humble and gracious besides. And Gary, probably the nicest guy in the world. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I couldn't manage to say what I wanted to at the time, but you guys have brought happiness to so many people, and thank you so much for coming back.
I hope you meant it when you said you'd be back next summer! |

Thank you He had remembered us from Dublin and invited us to the Belfast M&G - he told us he appreciated us young people rocking out and knowing all the words lol. He's such a sweetheart. He asked us how far away we lived from Belfast and we told him about 6 hours and he was like *horror face* "You're driving 6 hours??" We quickly reassured him that we were not going to drive 6 hours that night - just 2 or so, and he was like, "Please, stay awake!" He's such a dad lol. |
