Hi all, earlier today my mini submarine arrived! It was supposed to arrive last Tuesday :mad: Anyway, I got for less then the price of a ticket for Slane and it has 4 seats and some luggage space
I'll be captaining, and my mate will be on guard with the periscope, so we have two spare seats for anyone who wants to take the voyage across the Boyne (preferably female, and remember the weather forecast is good ).
Unfortunately there isn't much luggage space left for our passengers as we already have crates of beer, bottles whiskey/vodka/gin, various mixers, chairs, umbrellas, survival/first aid kits, explosives, self defense weapons etc etc.
Any takers?
Also, anyone know a good place to submerge?

Tell me its yellow.........:D

You'll be grand. You'll be in the furthest car park from the gig, and will have the longest walk ahead of you. Don't worry about it!

Oasis!

Great!

hi i am getting a lift to slane does anyone know if it is possible to get a dublin home i.e single ticket after the gig ?
any advice appreciated

sparkydee

Not sure it seems to be a standard return. You should ring dublin bus:)

celticwe

Is it true the bar closes at 9:(.


Such a creche of a country.

phantom_lord

how likely is it to be able to pick up a ticket up there?

sparkydee

Very likely there's a lot of spare tickets in dublin i'd chance it

The Hustler

Walked along Parnell Street about an hour ago - the amount of sc*mbags pissing on the street and smashing bottles was sickening

Driver 8

Imagine what it's gonna be like at the venue

My Da's working up there, said it's much much worse than the sc*mbag Oxegen crowd - be interesting to see how many arrests are made!

Its Oasis and The Prodigy, each attract the worst crowd possible, put them on the same bill and its mayhem!

Kasabian have their fair share of numpties aswell! Gonna be a MAJOR clean up job I'd imagine!:D

Anywhere u can listen to this on the internet?

All in all a savage days craic. The weather stayed dry. Before the gig was worried about all the stories of Oasis' 40 minute gigs. In fairness to them though, thought they were savage. Played for two hours solid. Prodigy were top notch too. Some band to get the crowd going.

Oasis were great , as were kasabian.....Full of f**king scumbags though...Ill never go again

What is the story with Dublin bus??? Thousands of people sitting on road,gardai don't know what's going on& absolutely no information from Dublin bus on anything. Heard 2
motorbike gardai cursing Dublin bus & saying they has seriously messed up. Not a single piece of info from Dublin bus,not a single employee /inspector/supervisor on road. I have been to slane twice before&never ever seen such transport chaos.

Bulmers

was at the gig tonite..disappointed have to say..the place was full of scum bags..even walking up to the venue..police done nothing really, all just standing about looking..people sniffin c*ke off keys,taking e etc..

We went up at about 4pm and there was a 1hr queue to get a drink,limit of 2 per person..ridiculous

Oasis were average,no atmosphere in the place,new stuff didn't go down well..no one knew it!

Seen oasis b4,been to plenty of gigs /festivals, this one was crap have to say

Oasis were

Helix

worst organisation ive ever seen at anything, ever

absolutely bloody shambolic

that said, that was the first time out of 4 that ive actually seen a good oasis set (i put it down to liam taking a back seat for the most part)

Orginisation-****
Scumbags-****
Dublin Bus -****
1 hour 20 min for a pint when prodigy where on:mad:
SCUMBAGS ON THE WAY IN THROUGH THE FOREST
ON THE WAY IN FIGHTS ,PUSHING ,AND MORE .
Never again Slane

sparkydee

Dublin bus are unreal. I am just home now we had to walk as far as kilmoon cross which is 6km as there were no buses left and there were buses coming from navan and we had to wait for them there. It took three and a half hours to walk it. And the bus we got was the last one we could see. Still thousands stranded. Our bus driver did a u turn so we flew back into dublin. Can't believe it. On another note no one checked any tickets going in to grounds. I'm never going to slane again.

dylano_k

Anybody go to Slane to see Oasis? Performance was top notch as expected and the prodigy were brilliant.

After the show on heading for the buses though...we had to walk for 2 and a half hours to get to a bus, my feet are blistered to bits now and i cant put them down, we walked 9km's to the dublin bus area that we had to pay 20return to use and thats what we got for it. Now the walk might have done me some good but other than that the travelling arrangements where despicable.

This is the price you pay for liking Oasis past 1997.
