    I can't see anything on their facebook about it. Plus I'd have thought ticketmaster would have some info on it also if the tickets were on sale on Friday. Can you post a link to where you seen this please.

    Check again, its there. Would link myself but on the phone. I'm sure ticketmaster or mcd or whoever will make a formal announcement later today or soon after. Saw em at download, they were good but they played too much new stuff, I'd say theyll play a lot more at this though being a headline show so will probs grab a ticket.

    Must have big support if its the o2. Thatll decide if I go or not.

    That would be brilliant, saw Steel Panther play just before them at Download this year, would be the perfect support band

    Ive been dying to see SP for ages , and they are in Europe around the time of this gig , they start their european in Helsinki on the 21st . Prob never happen though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,557 ✭✭✭Knifey Spoony


    Saw them play Rock Am Ring this year and tbh wasn't expecting much from them, but had a great time watching them despite much of the set being made up of stuff from the new album. They were one of the highlights of the festival for me.

    Will definitively be heading to this. Be very interesting to see who the support will be.

    Saw them support Metallica in 08, were very good. Delighted I can see them play a full gig now!

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    The new album stuff bored the crap out of me. Set at RIP wasnt a patch on seeing them at RDS. Hope its not expensive gig.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,165 ✭✭✭deisedave


    Any idea how much this might cost around? If it around the 30 mark I will be going.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,658 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    The o2 will have it at at leaast 40.

    Thats where Ticketmaster come in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 136 ✭✭Shando316


    My Chemical Romance tickets were €33 so I'd expect something along those lines.

    I'd say more unfortunately. If it is that cheap, I'm all over it. Could Shinedown support? UK dates are close enough.

    As much as i would love that , but it would be a weird band to support the D (as in style wise)

    I really enjoyed him. Hearing everyone get pissed off at him made it better. This lad would be fantastic:



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,959 ✭✭✭✭scudzilla


    No Belfast date

    Thursday 11 October – Munich, Germany @ Zenith
    Friday 12 October – Hamburg, Germany @ Sporthalle
    Sunday 14 October – Dusseldorf, Germany @ Mitsubishi Electric Halle
    Monday 15 October – Frankfurt, Germany @ Jahrhunderthalle
    Tuesday 16 October – Milan, Italy @ Mediolanum Forum
    Thursday 18 October – Brighton, UK @ Brighton Centre
    Saturday 20 October – Dublin, Eire @ O2
    Sunday 21 October – Wolverhampton, UK @ Civic Theatre
    Tuesday 23 October – Manchester, UK @ O2 Apollo
    Wednesday 24 October – London, UK @ Hammersmith Apollo

    UK shows are between £38 & £40 so i reckon we're looking at 50Euro, but the UK venues are a LOT smaller than The Point so they may have it around the 45mark


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,959 ✭✭✭✭scudzilla


    just been announced on Phantom, 40Euro a ticket, great price , cheaper than the UK :D:D

    edit: Tickets FROM 40Euro


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,658 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    That is a great price. Expect standing to be a bit more but sure feck it.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,578 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Yea delighted its only €40 plus special guest tba

    Does anyone think this will sell quick? Heading on holidays on Thursday and I really dont wanna spend any money before I go. My plan would be to pick up a standing ticket when I'm back Friday next week


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,687 ✭✭✭✭jack presley


    Standing tickets might go within the first day or so but I don't think they'll sell out the whole place, well not until a lot closer the time anyway.

    You'll be fine. There's no way this will sell out.

    I'm guessing you're looking for standing, if you are I'd say anytime today or 2/3 weeks before the gig.

    Don't forget to keep checking back for more tickets going on sale, as they will always hold a good few production tickets.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,128 ✭✭✭Staplor


    Thanks to this thread I'll be there with bells on!

    What a start to the weekend!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8 Bowies in Space


    Just got 2 Tickets at 9am today - can. not. wait! I missed them last time in '08 too, and I was very disappointed that they came and went from Europe back in June without any gigs. Never thought I'd see them get a headline gig like this though - it's gonna be epic!

    The D we are, The The D we are, The D we are, The D we are, The D we are, The D we are, D we are, .....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 230 ✭✭FedFrank2


    Has anyone received their tickets in the post for the gig yet?
