if it's the same format as their Brixton Gigs last week it will be a 2 hour set - so well worth the effort if ya can make it...
they also had this cool USB wristband they recorded the gig onto and you collected at the end of the night - altho it was £20 but good quality recording and great to hear the live treatment so the tracks...
i've the alarm set for 8:30am 0 -

yeah not happy about the steep price either... although it will be a different gig to the festival set; the Big Chill and Brixton gigs were... way better atmosphere and a 2 hour set at Brixton... hope that can be repeated in Tripod

€49.50 :eek:49.50!!!!! Lol.
That is beyond the joke.
Ya serious ?, so ya have to pay €49.50 to see Orbital and then pay €20 to see Dave Clarke :eek:TechnoFreek wrote: »Clarke is down for the same night alright with a €20 price tag.
Is orbital an early show?
EDIT: Orbital Stage Time - 8.30pm
AN expensive night if you wanted to keep the party goign and see clarke as well
For some to be complaining about cost of entrance fees and price of drinks in clubs etc and then go pay that kind of money is just downright hypocritical.0 -

not wanting to loose site of the subject, this is an orbital gig you are talking about
the live gig isn't the same as listenign to a CD... plus they haven't done a live gig in Dublin for a long time - while i agree the ticket price is expensive - it's still cheaper than me flying / staying / eating somwhere else to see them
but you are dead right, no one has to go, i'd much prefer to see them in the Olympia and pay less - but i'm a fan so i know i'd be pissed off on Nov 13 sitting somewhere else knowing they were paying up the road!0 -

Anyone who fancies doing anything after can split down the Twisted Pepper; we have:
Fanu (Lightless, Darkestral, Finland)
Fracture (Astrophonica, Hospital, UK)
DJ Trax (Moving Shadow, UK)
Executive Steve (REACH, Raidio na Life 106.4FM, IRL)

They weren't especially good at a recent festival in Clapham Common, but I'd say they could be good in a decent sized club environment... Wish that I'd made it to the Brixton ones instead

and thats exactly why we are rip off ireland, we willingly pay for anything..
i'm not willing to pay for anything... in fact i'm well thrifty and have been for years which is why on an occasion like this i can treat myself to something i know i'll enjoy... i'm a fan of Orbital and don't know when i'll get to see them next, so i've my tickets booked and can't wait 0 -

Im not saying fly to somewhere else to see them Im saying that the ticket is so expensive that you could fly to Berlin and party all day and night for the same price as a 2 hour gig in Tripod.
Also I know its not the same as the CD but ive seen them before Live,I have their cds and thats enough for me because there is no way im paying 49.50 to get into the Tripod.
This is the problem with Ireland,we'll pay anything.When I talk to the French or Germans they just laugh at us because we never make a stance on anything.Theres no justification in a 49.50 ticket price.Im not saying this from a tight point of view.I splurged monney on stuff you wouldnt believe in the good days but my perspective has seriously changed in this recession and it makes you see how rip off its is.0 -
sure my first reaction this morning was, that's steep!
not sure how this thread has headed off on a social/economical tangent... but here goes it can be very difficult to put a price on what other people enjoy or their personal interests.... i will enjoy this gig and live with the memory of being there with my mates, reliving times past and storing it away to remember in the future...
i didn't take part in any splurging during the "good times" and was well aware how much of a rip off most things were (the "benefit" of having lived through the late 70s and the 80s i suppose)
to all those who are going on about people throwing away cash on "anything"... some of us are capable of budgeting for stuff we enjoy so when something of interest comes along there is an option to go or not... this is of interest to me... i'm going... can't wait to see them again...0 -
