Monday, and a Monday at the tail end of a bank holiday too.

Why do they do this.

Mushy

The Academy...that isn't Cork!

GLaDOS

Definitely heading to this, heard good things about them from Arctic Monkeys.

ScummyMan

Definitely going to this

Mince Pie

Definitely heading to this. Delighted I have something else to look forward to now after an epic Electric Picnic. Seen them twice this year and they are frickin awesome!

Scar Tissue

I know this is massively early to even ask but am trying to figure out with work/trying to get up in time, if Ticketmaster says 7.30 what time could you expect Royal Blood to be on, 8.30 or thereabouts?

About 9 would be standard

Duff

Seen them in Workmans in March and supporting AM. Can't wait. Any word on price?

Checked price range on TM and it said €20 and I would assume a booking fee on top.

Mushy

I hear the pre=sale in England sold out in no time!

Presale????? How does one get hookd up for that?

greenman09

Seen these lads at AM. Even met the drummer in the crowd. Would love to be going but the joys of expecting our first baby around the time put paid to this.

Join the mailing list. Not sure if you would get a code if you signed up now. I'd say it's too late

DylanAFC

I think you've to be on the mailing list. Worked out pretty cheap too, €77 and a bit for 4 tickets!

D.Q

on your marks.....

cruhoortwunk

I'd say it will be moved to a bigger venue

DaveNoCheese

Only discovered these lads on Monday gone, been listening to the album all week. I hope to make the gig too!

eoinf

sold out in 2 mins how does that ****ing happen

Duff

FÙCK!

acquiescefc

yusssss

iMuse

Tickets got

GLaDOS

Bollox, can't believe that

Duff

EDIT:

The g/f just sent me an image of a screenshot. She got two to surprise me! BEST WOMAN EVAA!!

cruhoortwunk

Balls, had tickets in my basket, got a phone call and the basket expired by the time I got off it

Professey Chin

Fcuk :mad:
Stupid work people asking stupid questions. Stupid stupid stupid!!

GLaDOS

Lot of people complaining on their facebook about missing out of tickets, sold out everywhere in about a minute it seems, touts already advertising them.

Hippo

Their FB page is in meltdown with people across these islands querying how all the gigs were sold out within 2 minutes and that tout sites are now flooded with tickets. Lots of calls for venue upgrades - some of the places of the places they were booked into are woefully inadequate. It's possible I suppose that the venues were booked months ago before they'd really taken off.

cruhoortwunk

There was a presale though, so a lot of them were probably sold well before today. That plus the venue is small

Duff

It's crazy what a few months can do for a band. When I seen them in The Workmans in March there was only about 150 people there and you could buy tickets at the door. The hype train was only getting going then though, I suppose.

Doubt there is any collusion between the band and the tout sites just bedroom entrepreneurs snapping them up to make a profit. Don't support them otherwise it will keep happening.

StaticAge11

Got one ticket as an impulse. Happy enough, their album is a belter

Absolutely, I didn't mean to suggest any collusion!

Rainbow_brite

I feel very lucky this morning was online since before nine but sat like a spud and kept trying and managed to get 1 ticket at 9.25! They sold out in record time haven't seen them before so looking forward to this!

Cant believe how empty that gig was. I only went because i heard their song on Soccer AM goals highlight thing and thought it was a reyt tune.

GLaDOS

Tickets on viagogo for the Dublin gig for €75-100, scumbags :mad:

Dr.Winston O'Boogie

Absolute joke.

DaveNoCheese

Bollox to that anyway! Hopefully they change to a bigger venue!

DylanAFC

Well that was disastrous. Any spares send them my way

D.Q

managed to get them with no problems. Delighted! That never happens to me!

Mince Pie

Devastated! Going to spend the weekend crying.

Dr.Winston O'Boogie

Can definitely see an upgrade in venue or extra night added. They have outgrown the Academy without even playing there, number 1 album in the UK.

Theyve no room.on the tour for an extra night in Dublin.. Only option is move to the olympia(havent a hope of selling the o2),which would have been announced by now you'd imagine..

Could do the 26th, cause we're the first night of the tour

acquiescefc

But they'd have to do it to every gig on the tour. Woudl be very surprised if it happened.
The UK gigs sold out in the same way and theyre all Academy size venues.
If one upgraded the others would campaign for the same, logistical nightmare for a tour 7 weeks away.

Yer Aul One

I reckon they will upgrade the venue. It always happens when i buy tickets to an intimate-ish gig

Usually what happens is a second date, I haven't seen many cases where a concert was upgraded to a larger venue.
Not to rule it out completely, but I would be very surprised if they moved it to Olympia.

Its happened to a number of gigs I had tickets for. Whelans to Olympia, Academy to Olympia, Academy to Vicar!

All depends if there are bookings for Vicar or Olympia on that date..

Furious-Red

It wont get upgraded to the Olympia . They will prob do another tour either mid next year before the festival run which will include an Olympia gig for sure.

Either way i got me a ticket even though i had to use my mams donkey of a laptop
