Repli

This is gonna rock! Jack White = God

No chance of them showin up at oxegen now I suppose, although Maximo Park are playing oxegen and their own gig in September so ya never know!

Evil Sausage

Was half expecting to see them announced for Electric Picnic to be honest - since they're playing the Leeds/Reading festival around that time.

But Ive no problem with them doing a gig of their own!!! That makes 4 gigs over 4 consecutive nights for me - The Raconteurs, Money Mark, Pearl Jam and Radioceann. Its gonna be a tough week, but I think I'll cope..........

Mushy

Hmmmmmm..not sure bout this one myself. I like them but not THAT big a fan of them. Although at the Olympia it'd be good. And if i didnt go, i wouldnt really regret it much. one day to decide

Mr Rivers

Bought 2

so I have Pukkelpop -> Raconteurs -> Morrissey -> Pearl Jam -> Radiohead all in a row

Evil Sausage

Bought a few myself. Looking forward to this now.

Not that expensive, compared to how much some acts are charging these days. Ian Brown and even Beck last year.

Guys, if you are looking for tickets, I suggest you do it here. Thanks.

mavish

anyone know what the chances are that theyll release more tickets closer to the date?
Im considering going to belfast to see them the next day but I would rather not cos-
1. it costs more, 2. its confirmed on their website but not on the tennants vital website, 3. you have to sit through the kaiser cheifs, 4. its on the same day as morrisey.

they seem to free the day before the oylmpia gig, maybe theyll add an extra night- any thoughts?

Dont be at yourself

Damn they sold out?!?! Ok, I was in two minds about whether they would sell out or not. Firsrt I thought they're a new band, relatively unknown compared to regular sell-out bands, and so prob won't sell out, I'll hold off for a bit. My second mind told me it's Jack White's new band, of course they'll bloody sell out!!

D'oh.

I predict more Irish dates towards the end of the year though so not to worry!

I had the same idea as your first mind. Went down to buy a ticket after work.

Have you seen the schedule, and then he'll be back with the ex-wife for another album.

This is a one-off, everyone wants a piece.


Still gutted.

Anyone have any idea what this is about? Are they just talking about a support slot for the Kaiser Chiefs?

Yep, just a support slot of Kaisers

The Raconteurs Jack White et al extend their Irish jaunt.

The Raconteurs have announced they'll be supporting the Kaiser Chiefs at the Belfast Vital Festival on August 22.

The band, comprising of the White Stripes frontman, Brendan Benson, and members of The Greenhornes, will head up North after headlining The Olympia in Dublin the night before.

With their debut album Broken Boy Soldiers impressing personages everywhere, expect tickets for the mighty double bill to sell out very shortly.
