    Great line-up..

    .. not a big fan of Snow Patrol's latest stuff.

    But love both Florence and Temper Trap!

    Am tempted but all I've heard about Phoenix Park as a venue is the shocking gig with the Chilli's a few years back.

    Sure most outdoor venues are bad for sound.

    The atmosphere is still good, will never forget Green Day at Marlay Park;).

    Very tempted to buy a ticket for this, may as well just in case they sell out I need to cross SP off my list of bands to see.

    Like Florence and The Machine BUT would never pay for another Gary Lightbody Self-Indulgent Fest

    Will Snow Patrol definitely be on last? Would go if Florence was on last instead, no interest in seeing Snow Patrol…

    Since they're first billed - I'd say yeah, they'll be going on last.

    I don't like FATM either but I reckon The Temper Trap will make up for them.

    It says many more acts are to be announced so hopefully the smaller bands will be good too.

    MCD have stated that further support acts will be announced at a later date for this gig. I've been looking a the T in the Park Friday line up and this is how it reads. I'm just wondering if any of these acts could appear on the Sunday at Phoenix Park:

    Snow Patrol - Confirmed
    FATM - Confirmed
    Temper Trap - Confirmed

    Tinie Tempah
    New Order
    Kaiser Chiefs
    Sven Vath
    The Darkness
    Labrinth
    Professor Green

    Didn't get a ticket.

    I would probably agree MCD are holding a few back.

    Really hope we will hear some further announcements soon, some bands I'd love to see more than SP although SP would still be good.

    Dunno if anyone else is subscribed to the MCD newsletter, but I got one yesterday in my inbox which said
    Snow Patrol and Florence + The Machine have confirmed a major outdoor summer concert at the Phoenix Park, Dublin on Sunday 8th of July!

    The Temper Trap and Here We Go Magic have also been added to the line up.

    Tickets go on sale tomorrow morning at 8am.

    So it appears Hear We Go Magic will also play.

    got tickets.

    Would much prefer to go to the o2 gig though to see Florence. Not in SP anymore.

    Anyone know how many minutes the o2 gig sold out in?

    Can't see any others being added other than a local act. It's a 45K max capacity so it wouldn't pay them to add more to the bill.

    MCD hold back most of the tickets for promotional purposes, I reckon there'd definitely be a good few left the weekend before the gig.

    If you do a search on youtube you will find a rather excellent concert Florence did for Teenage Cancer Trust in the Albert Hall in London. Watched it streamed live last Tuesday on Hewlett Packard's youtube page and then they put the recording up for 24 hours on Thursday. Naturally people recorded it and put it up else where. Def worth a listen.
    Lets hope she can perform just as well in the Park.

    Tickets gone again!!!:eek:

    I got mine when they originally went on sale but I just text a few friends who had missed out and when they went onto Ticketmaster they were unavailable.

    I just checked the site and this seems to be the case!!

    You got lucky my friend!!!:D

    Would like to see Tinie Tempah added.

    Fully expect MCD to release more tickets closer to the time.

    Tempah won't be added as he's supporting SHM.

    If any more acts are announced for this gig it will be more Indie acts, like the three already set to play.

    Keep checking people, keep checking.

    Tickets go on and off all the time, if you try on a regular basis and are willing to mess around on TM anytime you're bored, it will happen.
