    I got my tickets this morning cost me €217 for 2 which i think is a little over priced for her come back but on the plus side she is a fantastic singer and i'm really looking foward to it.She has just annouced a 3rd date in Dublin.:D

    For that price, she would want to be sharing her cocaine supply with the crowd

    Last concert I went to see was Paul McCartney in the RDS a good few years ago, and I paid €105 for a seat that was more than 100ms from the stage.. We had to forgo the seats and just walk up to the standing area to be able to see anything at all.

    Most concerts here are a rip off. Music fans are treated with the utmost of contempt. I boycotted every gig organised by the particular company after this. But they seem to get away with it, and people still buy their poor and overpriced product, so why would they change. I'm sure liveline will be hopping after this gig as well, but if people keep going to the gigs, then nothing will get done.

    Whitney is well past her best, all those years of drug taking have taken their toll I think, and to charge €217 for 2 tickets to see her is ridiculous. How far from the stage are you for that money?

    I considered getting Whitney tickets but after seeing her atrocious performance on X Factor, there was no way that I'd shell out over a hundred quid per ticket to see her live. She's not meant to be that good anyway in concert.

    Her years of coke abuse has destroyed her voice.
