    Frankeen will have a embargo over the playlist so unlikely he'll be allowed to sign about a cailin from An Gallimh.

    Subject to licence I guess. Given the stadium has no planning for these kind of events are residents likely to object to it?

    Not a fan by any means, but that is massive news for Cork.

    Just hope the wife finds someone to go with as I really have no interest.

    I'm sure some residents will make submissions to the license application. Can't see it not being granted. If the Council refused this then you'd never see a big concert in Cork again.

    Nice one for cork. But 7 gigs in ireland..some going if he sells them out...hes no brucie though. Would like to see more artist do a tour like that in ireland. Even though im not the biggest ed fan i hope its a success it might encourage promoters to push venues outsidr of dublin

    That's what I am thinking too. Seven gigs is a lot and two are in the Phoenix Park so they will have a massive attendance. Will the two Cork gigs sell out?
    I'd say they will get planning permission alright for them.

    I have no doubt he'll sell them out, people in Cork and Galway are not used to getting concerts like this so the novelty of that alone means people who wouldn't be too pushed about travelling to Dublin for a gig will try and get tickets for this.

    Yeah, I think both will sell out in Cork. The guy seems to be extremely popular (not that I listen to him) and has a lot of media coverage.
    Two sell outs in Cork would be a good start for the stadium and hopefully a nice earner.

    81 is correct, 91 for a seat apparently. It will certainly sell out, make no mistake.
    Great news for the local economy.

    Pricey gig, I would have thought it was going to be 60/65 for GA and 80/85 for a seat but ya, it'll sell out regardless.

    I think those prices are probably on par with his Croke Park pricing but I've no clue about that.

    l'd say they will, if the 1st night if it is the 1st big gig that will sell it out as a kind of "I was there" moment, so you'll probably have a demand for 2 concerts. Also, bake in all of Munster won't have to travel to Dublin to see, albeit he's playing 7 Irish gigs !!

    He's very popular, should bring in great money and at last we're up and running. Will be very exciting for the City and create a great buzz around the place. The City will be mobbed that weekend.

    €80 + booking fee is standard enough price for a gig like this in Croke Park, think the Guns r Roses gig in Slane was a bit more.

    That's why trips to Dublin for gigs are brutal expensive, 2 tickets and a hotel could set you back circa €450/€500, it's nuts. That's before travel expense, dinner, drinks ?

    It's class that there will big concerts in Cork presumably on an ongoing basis going forward.

    Would like to see the Rolling Stones, Coldplay, AC/DC or Guns n Roses. Would be class.

    Hotels in Cork are doing the same as the hotels in Dublin it seems:

    Join Air BnB.

    Let out the house for 2 days for the gigs.

    Undercut the hotels by 50 euro a night.

    Profit.

    :pac:

    10 year ticket holders get priority. Also imagine those would go as corporate freebies. Hard to get hands on I'd say.

    Jimmy Crowley supported by Crystal Swing apparently for Frankeen's retirement do. Tickets will not go on sale and entry will only be by secret handshake.

    Just making the seats red/white, would have been so much nicer. As suggested earlier, maybe they will, but it just seems like a basic thing to get right. It's looks like something Sligo would be playing in.
