is this outdoor ??

Great news ?

delbertgrady · 11-12-2012 3:14pm

RDS Arena is outdoors.

poundhound · 11-12-2012 4:22pm

Neil Young show No. 9 for me.

The gigs with Crazy Horse are always the best, LOUD!

Cannot wait.

Furious-Red · 11-12-2012 4:41pm

Would have loved to have gone but its the same day as Bon Jovi

karaokeman · 11-12-2012 5:40pm

Def going to hit up this gig.

Missed Neil at the O2, and the Crazy Horses should make this one extra special.

Mental Mickey · 11-12-2012 5:53pm

Bugger!!!!!

That's two big gigs for next year(Slash and now this). 'Tis probably no use asking for an early Xmas pressie of a Ticketmaster Voucher, as I'd say both of these gigs will sell out fairly sharpish????? :mad:

Sorry but I'm delighted they're on the same day. See the Gaslight Anthem are playing the following monday in dublin, wonder if they'll be tapped for support duty?

Rothko · 11-12-2012 9:11pm

Brilliant. Can't wait for this!

Playing download the sunday so unlikely.

Will this sell out out sharpish?

I wouldn't have thought so. He's been here twice in the last 4 years and his profile hasn't risen that much that he'd have a bunch of new fans (outside of the youth who have seen the light). Would be very surprised if there isn't still tickets available well into the new year. Also, I'd think the Crazy Horse presence would put off the Harvest Moon, Heart of Gold brigade. Check out Sugar Mountain for recent setlists.

Can't wait!

Lovely stuff. Slash tix to be bought on Friday, then Biffy, Bruce and Neil after that. And Roger Waters too. If this still has tix I'l be grand.

saintsaltynuts · 12-12-2012 1:39am

Great news Neil's coming coming back.A big complaint i have is the R.D.S. venue itself just dont like the place for a gig.Was in the O2 in '09 and the sound and view,even though was seated,was stunning.Definitely going go though any else playing there wouldn't bother me arse.

Ah, when I checked their website before posting they didn't have the download date on there.

There's his entire discography. Worth a look.

Well, they'll probably be playing some stuff from the new album, Psychedelic Pill so you should have a listen to that.

Apart from that, try After The Gold Rush, Rust Never Sleeps, Ragged Glory and Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere.

eldest200 · 12-12-2012 1:29pm

Thanks will check them out

When I started my own thread I didn't realise this one was up first

delbertgrady · 12-12-2012 1:48pm

If you familiarise yourself with Weld (superb 1990 live album) and Psychedelic Pill (the new album), that should cover most of the set. He'll probably do a few acoustic songs, but it's a Crazy Horse show, so it's all about the racket.

My eyes hurt after reading that!

delbertgrady · 13-12-2012 11:26am

If anything, that list proves my earlier post that Weld and Psychedelic Pill would have even a Neil Young newbie covered, since most of the oldies are represented on the live album. Setlist FM (which seems to be the source of that list) always give the original album source (hence appearances from Zuma, Rust Never Sleeps, Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, Freedom, etc.), but there's no need to confuse the issue, since eleven songs in that list are on Weld.

Andy-Pandy · 13-12-2012 12:22pm

I'm willing to pay the cover just for the chance to hear Cortez live.

Amen brother. Great song. Just been talking about it with someone at

work

schemingbohemia · 13-12-2012 1:39pm

That setlist seals the deal (normally don't go to outdoor shows)

jimosterberg · 13-12-2012 5:55pm

Seems recent setlists are 13-14 songs long. Seems a little short for a gig of this size and price but Neil has been known to elongate songs live at times I suppose!

Massive NY fan here, can't believe I haven't seen him since Slane in 1993.

That's ticket prezzies for myself and the missus sorted so (it was Bruce last Xmas).

jimosterberg · 16-12-2012 9:17pm

Dad's Christmas present sorted. Hopefully will be a great gig

Any idea how much for a standing ticket?

76 € + all the bells and whistles

comet · 17-12-2012 11:12pm

Thanks, was hoping against hope it might be the cheapest tickets

UsedToWait · 18-12-2012 10:07am

Got my tickets - painless enough on the website this morning, thankfully...

€82.10 for standing with TicketB'stard fees...

Can't wait!

MayoForSam · 18-12-2012 11:57am

Yup, got mine too, seated this time as I was told that standing was not an option

.

It's a real nuisance on the Ticketmaster website that you can't select which block you want your seat in, it took me 30 attempts to finally get a seat where I wanted (I kept getting either Block E (too close in the corner) or Block A (too far back)).

20 years since I saw Shakey in the flesh, a re-acquaintance is long overdue. Picked up Psychedelic Pill last weekend, the man has still got it (unlike some other old fogies I don't care to mention).

Yeah I had the same problem. We always go for seated because I'm quite small so can never see (plus I have a weird phobia thing of people being too close/touching me) however after numerous attempts I kept getting block A so went for standing in the end. Ill just have to have a few drinks and I wont mind so much.

poundhound · 18-12-2012 12:58pm

All Im getting is the option to buy tix in Block A (too far away), Block F (Too close) or pretty much the back row of Block C?!

Has anyone acquired tix for anywhere on the Grandstand other than Block F?

Mental Mickey · 18-12-2012 1:42pm

Got mine sorted first thing this morning(well someone did for me)!!!!

When I was trying all I was getting was F. Thats where we were sat for Springsteen and if we had been 2 seats to the right our view would have been completely blocked by a screen signposting the toilets. It cause quite a bit of commotion actually, a lot of people were understandably disappointed and were asking to be moved. You literally couldnt see a thing if you were behind it.

Wouldnt give me any others.

Edit - I also tried using their phone service to see if I would get anything different but got the same block A for Anglesea stand.

poundhound · 18-12-2012 3:31pm

I tried the phone too and got the same seat allocation that Id been offered over 30 times on the website, Block F, row R, Seat 23?!

There's something amiss with their website.

loveisdivine · 18-12-2012 3:31pm

Just tried again there out of curiosity and got front row of Block N of the Grandstand. Still right at the back though. Though I probably would have gone for that if I hadnt already bought standing.

What was putting me off about being in the Anglesea was the support pillars. Ya just know I would have ended up behind one of those!

Surely all the decent seats at the middle to front cant be sold out?
