Mushy

My friend went to one of them last year, and she said it was bout 5,000., Tracert. I'd go by that anyway, shall be cool to see whoever plays in there

tracert

Hmm, could sell out quick enough. I'll definitely be going, Unholy Alliance was great craic.

Fly High

I'd love to go but I've only ever passed through Cork, do you guys know is this place far from city centre? Is there much accomadation near it?

Mossy Monk

not far from the city center. few minutes in a taxi

Padraig Mor

Despite the ads saying Friday, the tickets for this are already on sale at Ticketmaster. Got mine this morning!

Beekay

anybody got any ideas on support?

Mushy

Is there much accomadation near it?

Definately an An Óige youth hostel, as im sure theres many others. Wouldnr be too far away in a taxi

Tar.Aldarion

The Who? (:

Fly High

Would the distance be easily walkable after the gig? Taxis are generally thin on the ground, would it be longer say than the walk from the point back into city or would it be more like walking in from the RDS, ouch... My lack of Cork knowledge is shocking and shameful! :eek:

The Marquee is only a relatively short walk back into the city centre. I think it MAY be moving closer to the city as well this year.

Fly High

Excellent this all sounds good thanks for the help. Now just the small matter of convincing people that they want to go down to Cork... It's only what 4 hours from Galway? Slayer are worth it though...

tracert

Got my ticket yesterday.

quaidox

so does anyone know who's suppoting yet?
and is the marquee open air or indoors?

Léan

Mastodon are rumored as support. I heard from someone they are confirmed but don't know how true that is..

The Marquee is what it says it is, a big tent that fits about 5000 people. plenty beer available and you can drink it inside at the gig. I was at Roger Waters last year and I hope to go to one of the gigs again this year. Stayed in the Imperial Hotel,would stay there again.

Tar.Aldarion

Hmm, don't know if I can go as it is in the middle of the week.


Mastodon were so **** when I saw them.
