But the lineup doesn’t stop there. The all-day stream will feature full sets from some of metal’s biggest names, including:Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, Gojira, Halestorm, Tool, Lamb of God, Anthrax, and Mastodon.
Adding even more firepower is an all-star metal supergroup featuring appearances by: Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins), Slash and Duff McKagan (Guns N’ Roses), David Draiman (Disturbed), Fred Durst (Limp Bizkit), Jonathan Davis (Korn), Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine), Zakk Wylde, Sammy Hagar, KK Downing, Lzzy Hale, Scott Ian, Rudy Sarzo, Papa V Perpetua (Ghost), and members of Sleep Token, among others.
Toales Bar will be screening the concert live and loud, with full sound and a big screen setup to capture every riff and roar. Admission is free, and no tickets are required.
Music kicks off at 3pm, with headliners hitting the virtual stage in the evening.
Early arrival is encouraged, as space is expected to fill up quickly.
Whether you're a diehard Sabbath fan or just looking for a place to soak in some serious live energy, this will be an unforgettable day for Dundalk’s music community.
Back to the Beginning may be happening elsewhere, but for one night only, Toales is the loudest front row in town.
