Metal All starts ticket

The show will feature an evening of metal classics being performed in different kick ass line-up configuration with sets that include renditions of all the performing artists’ respective classics.

The promoter, Lloyd Barber from LOR Productions, said ”I’ve been a massive hard rock and metal fan for years. To be bringing this line up to Ireland is a dream come true. I am a huge fan of these individual artists. Currently, they are performing at major stadiums across Europe and UK. To deliver a show in a relativity small venue will be something every metal fan will enjoy. However, the venue size dictates the ticket prize. Hence, to make this exceptional value, we will also include free entry to The Cauldron 2015, which will be an afternoon and evening of rock and metal – a fantastic double-bill for all metal fans.”

The Cauldron

LOR Productions hosts a variety of concerts and festivals in Ireland and UK. Including the extremely successful “BASH for Philo “ in August this year and will be launching a new club for Irish artists in Sydney Australia on St Patricks Day 2015.

The participating artists are looking forward to the Metal All Stars tour as much as the fans are. As Zakk Wylde stated, “The Metal All Stars are back and we are going to kick some major ass!” Additionally, James LaBrie, “I am psyched to be a part of the Metal All Stars tour with an incredible collection of singers and musicians. Come on out and let’s make it a memorable kick ass evening that is going to rock!”

Support for this show comes from Maverick and Crash.
