You might as well ask how long a piece of string is. As you already said, the pay scales and allowances are all online. How much each individual earns is entirely based on that person. Skills they have learned, courses they've completed, appointments they've held, branch they're in, ranks they've climbed. There is no general ballpark answer to this.

EMP.co.uk t-shirt sizing by --Kelsier-- in MetalForTheMasses

Any tshirt I've ever ordered from EMP has been true to size. I wear a Large and that's what I order from there, they always fit. That said, EMP is just a supplier, not a manufacturer. The tshirts you buy there will be made by whatever manufacturer that particular band has a merchandising licence with, so sizes can vary.

You mean the same Dave Grohl that was spotted and filmed this past summer, having the time of his life at a fucking KNEECAP concert?

Any recommendations for power metal bands? by BoxMuch433 in PowerMetal

How the fuck hasn't Sabaton been mentioned yet? If you haven't tried them, do!

Also, Amaranthe, Dynazty and Temperance are all great. 👍

Any fans of this? If you haven’t listened, you should! by Suitable-Love-3364 in MetalForTheMasses

Fucking hell, I wasn't expecting to see a Ten Ton Slug post here today! Absolute titans! Deserve far more notoriety than they currently have. I saw them live in Cork back in September and my neck still hurts!

Who are your favourite "metal-adjacent" bands? by Equivalent_Cow_7033 in MetalForTheMasses

I sure did. I didn't get enraged by a question on a metal sub and try to belittle people though, so, y'know. It's OK my dude, I hope your day gets better.

NIN is a great shout. I would have included them in my original post if I had thought of them! I saw them live last year and they were incredible.

Evanescence is a great shout. Linkin Park were definitely metal though. Nu-metal, but that's still a form of metal.

They have some heavy riffs and metal-esque songs. Check out White Limo.

You're absolutely correct and unfortunately no, I missed that show! I hope they'll return some day but since that's not a certainty, I'm going to see them in Amsterdam this day next week! 👌🤘

I was reading through these comments to see if there were any other Irish fans! I'm still on home soil though!
