    My tickets arrived this morning, presale tickets with Nightrain. They only state Gold Circle on them. Looking forward to this as it is my 25th anniversary since being to Slane, my first was Lizzy in '81.

    That's not clever, including the barcode and serial number. All you need is a printer and a good story and arrive before you.

    2 of us heading over

    Current plan- I'm going to Aerosmith in the 3arena on the 14th June and going to head straight to the airport after it and fly out on the early flight to London on the 15th and then fly back the Saturday evening

    Staying in the Ruskin Hotel (€217 for twin room for 2 nights, it's about a 30-45 min drive from the stadium)

    Flying over on the Thursday, GNR on the Friday and Rainbow in the 02 on the Saturday. Coming home on the Monday. I am lucky enough to have a family member living in London whom I can stay with.

    A good few heading over so. I'm staying in the Kip Hotel(mentioned before by someone else i think) only because I'm not familiar with London and its near the public transport system. It will be the first time I'm heading to a gig by myself or even heading away by myself so a tiny bit anxious! I suppose there will be late public transport the night of the gig? I know Axl has started getting professional with his times as of late but ya never know!

    Might be too late now, but if people want to give them as presents they could print out confirmations, maybe on decent card or something, even print up a fake joke version or something.

    Going to fly out on an early flight on the 15th June from Dublin as I'll will be up for Aerosmith on the 14th June. I heard London city airport is the handiest airport for the area I'm staying but the flights are very expensive for there, so I'm aiming to fly into stansted

    Staying in the Ruskin Arms hotel which is about 40 min drive from the stadium

    Probably will be closer to the tour kicking off before supports are announced.

    Expensive? Cityjet flight out the Thursday is not much over €20, Stansted is grand to get to there anyway.

    I'm considering the whole camping thing for GNR at Slane, just to avoid the pain of getting out to the buses that evening.

    Apparently at Slane Farm Campsite you can head up the night before and park right beside the tent as well. Has anyone any experience of doing this for previous gigs?

    Thats the best site to stay in. You're literally a 5-10 minute walk to the concert entrance. Bring as much beer/food as you need as there's no official off-licence in the village and you won't be able to get in to the village the morning of the gig.

    Ah cheers for that Wile E. It does seem like a good option to avoid the traffic and make it into a mini festival!

    It's the only way to do it. Avoid the madness of the traffic and enjoy a great weekend of music.

    So are they playing any Irish festivals.

    Slane village is closed on concert day. Its like a post apocalyptic wasteland for 48 hours. Bring your own food, booze etc and try smuggle some in. The amenities in the venue itself are similar to the darkest corners of Burundi.

    I didn't think Slane sold out. Went to get a few tickets and found out they sold out in 24 hour.

    Got re-directed to seat wave which looks like a legal ticket touting service. wtf is going on here?
