    Anyone know roughly what the capacity of the Royal Hospital Kilmainham will be?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,075 ✭✭✭lc180


    The gig in Dublin is the day before Arcade Fire/Pixies in Marlay Park. Gonna be an expensive and hectic wkend!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,463 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    same weekend as Bryan Adams in Cork.

    What hotels are near the venue, thinking of going to this and spending the weekend down in cork


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,665 ✭✭✭dirkmeister


    That is shaping up to be a very good weekend with Arcade Fire and The Pixies on Sunday.

    Hopefully the weather holds up, actually fu(k the weather...with a line up like that it can p!ss down for all I care!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,656 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Definitely gonna make the Cork show, don't know if it will sell out fully either which is grand. Will hopefully make both shows, so my two and bit weeks off work will go: Biffy Cork, Biffy Dublin, Pixies Cork, Rock Werchter. Squeeze in the World Cup matches, it should be a fun summer.

    There's a presale for both gigs tomorrow. Anyone know if it's through Biffy site or Mcd site?


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,575 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Looks like the gigs will be Heineken sponsored
    The band will then head to Cork on 27th June 2014 to play Live At The Marquee in the Docklands area of the city, before heading to Dublin to play a unique Heineken Live show which will take place in the intimate and historic setting of Royal Hospital Kilmainham on 28th June 2014.

    How quickly are we looking at this selling out? Beyoncé levels?

    The o2 had roughly 10k there. With a split of venues it shouldn't be immediate, but maybe Will a bit beforehand!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,201 ✭✭✭languagenerd


    Yay! I was horribly sick the last time I saw them and swore I'd go again to get a proper experience of their show.

    Might be some decent support if it's an outdoor gig too :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,463 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    what are the chances of the marquee show selling out 2morrow. dont knw weither to get out of bed a 9am to get tickets or chance it til later on tomorrow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 308 ✭✭spodoinkle

    The bar set up was a joke, and getting out at the end was dangerously organised, hopefully they learn their lesson


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    I remember when you could get 4 tickets to see Biffy at that price :(.

    Mike Vennart is good but he's not that good to warrant that price tag :D

    Yeah totally agree, especially leaving the venue, that was seriously close to trouble!

    Different promoter this time round, I dont have faith MCD will do anything different though!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,677 ✭✭✭Zwillinge


    Friend picked up two tickets, while I got the Panic at the Disco! tickets.

    The sound was pretty poor at Blur, so fingers crossed that much is fixed up!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,357 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    Should the marquee sell out anytime soon lads?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,463 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Got a ticket for Block B row K for the cork gig. Going to bryan adams in the same venue the day after. looking forward to that weekend now

    Little Matador are not too bad



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,656 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Jesus it'd be great if Little Matador did the Cork date too! You Me at 6 can go walk off a cliff though.

    Have to say they are one of my guilty pressures ha . Please dont judge me ha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,175 ✭✭✭StaticAge11


    I love You Me At Six but hate their fan base. Thankfully both these shows are over 18s so that partially solves that problem.

    Cannot wait for both these gigs!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,506 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    Looks like I do not have to be in a rush to get to Kilmainham, nothing against the bands, but not my cup of tea either of them, although if it is a nice sunny day they could provide some good background music.

    Gone are the days where good bands like Manchester orchestra and ocean size would be supporting biffy :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,656 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Little Matador are very good. Oceansize wouldve been class back in the day.

    Was that in 07? Feckin exam made miss that. And thatll mean I will have missed oceansize twice!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    think so, was the 50th anniversary of the Fender strat concert.

    exams never make me miss a gig, i went to a weezer show the night before my leaving cert, no way was any exam going to get in my way!

    Marquee is bout the 5000 mark too.

    Little Matador playing a tiny venue in cork late after Biffy gig so assume they'll be supporting them here. Suits me fine!

    Just a method so they can tell how many tickets they've sold.

    To anyone going to the Cork gig, a band called Little Matador are playing in Cyprus Avenue after this Biffy gig, a late show. Only €8 in. They aren't down to support Biffy, but they are in Dublin and Belfast.

    Who is actually down to support at the Marquee?

    I actually really like You Me At Six. Their new album is pretty good. I'll be at Dublin too anyway so I am getting them regardless

    Nobody yet from what ive seen. I guess it will be Little Matador though.
