To be honest, I'd be fairly confident it wont.

Maybe standing, but like most gigs they'll sell first anyways.

Saw them the last 3 times in the Olympia, only once was a sellout

The Colour Of Money

EXCITED for this

Rothko

Does anyone know who the support act for this is?

I tried just there on the off chance even though I can't go as I'm going to Fleetwood Mac and I could have got front row of the circle the middle 2 seats which are the best seats in the place! So if any of you are looking try now!

You have to stand at a rock gig, luckily I have a standing ticket, I never have nor never will sit down at a rock gig, I wouldn't go if that was the only option left.

Wow, you really don't realise just how tight a band they are and just how good a guitarist James Dean Bradfield is until they batter you round the head for 2 hours or so.

Disappointed I couldnt make it due to work ,they are a great band live.
How long did they play for 90 minutes or more ?
They usually do short setlists but I see they played 20 songs last night .

Amazing gig. Completely blown away by how good they were last night.

Rothko

That was absolutely fantastic. One of the best gigs I've ever been to. Nice surprise to hear Revol. I'm even tempted to go and see them again in the UK later this week.

Was at the Belfast gig the following night, absolutely savage gig. Had heard the Dublin one was brilliant too. Loved it!

Great band live but my only complaint is that they dont play for long enough .
With such a huge back catalogue they really should be playing 2 hours.
