    There will a presale from the bands website if you pre-order the new album, otherwise take your chances with ticketmaster next Friday.

    they are paperless tickets which suggests they think it will sell out fast too.

    This will unfortunately mean they will likely be exempt from being on www.toutless.com even though there is no reason I can see to exclude them -since many people selling will still be going themselves (as with many tickets sold on toutless) so could walk in with the buyer as part of their group.
    prices
    €48.90 - €69.50
    There is no mention of the restoration levy being included so expect to pay 12.5% on those prices, to a max of 6.85 and then a 1 euro on top. So the 69.50 are likely to have 7.85 added to them (some recent gigs do have the euro included in the ticket price, so might be 6.85 or slightly less)

    It is also limited to 2 per person, which I think is great news. Some will say its too few, I would rather see a limit of 2 than 8-9 most have. It does mean less likely people from a couple will pull out, so potential toutless sales may be less anyway.

    In other threads people have said a limit of 4 would be good. I would like to see a limit of 2 for standing (or even 1) and a limit for 3-4 max on seated, or perhaps some other way of linking the tickets for seating -e.g. if 4 people do want to sit together there could be some way for them to do it while ordering online, perhaps accepting that they are getting seats further back or something.

    Tickets priced from €48.90 go on sale at 9am next Friday 24th March via Ticketmaster Ireland, limited to 2 per person

    Kasabian aren't huge in Ireland but this should still sell out quick. Think the Olympia holds only 1600


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,014 ✭✭✭✭Corholio


    Hopefully the album can hold up a lot better than the first single, unfortunately that could have been repeated for any of the last few albums and they mostly haven't held up, and I'm a big Kasabian fan. Still amazing live though, just hope they don't fall into Muse category where live is the only reason to listen to them.

    Anyone get their code yet?

    Stated in press release codes to be sent by 2pm, 2pm as it's a time in advance of sale to answer your question.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,260 ✭✭✭Joekers


    I never received a presale code anyone else the same?

    You didn't have to purchase just show interest in pre-ordering by entering details etc, pre-sale is this evening and time to register for presale is closed though unfortunately.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,090 ✭✭✭Zardoz


    Fair play to Kasabian for having the presale at a normal time instead of the 9am nonsense like most other acts .
    There is absolutely no reason an online only sale needs to be at 9am .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭Carroller


    Pre-sale link isn't working for me anyone got a working one?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭ryaner777


    Went through fine for me, had to switch to internet explorer though. firefox wasn't working

    Buzzing. Love a short run in to a big gig. Nothing more annoying than waiting 10 months for a gig.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,438 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Got in no bother for tickets - as did a mate.

    Handy. Only a few weeks to go too

    Finally got in via the link in the e-mail!! Seached for 2 standing and said none available and offered me 2 circle tickets. Didn't fancy sitting at a Kasabian gig so rejected them and tried for standing again and voila!

    :D

    No problem, was also using ticket bastard directly and was getting nothing then twigged go check the email again and thankfully managed to get two standing


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭Carroller


    Link wouldn't work for me until I turned off my WiFi and used mobile data. Got in at 7.15 with only seating available. Rejected it tried again and two standing. I spent these last in the ballroom in Galaxy before they headlined glastonbury. Hope this gig is just as enjoyable


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭ryaner777


    Did anyone with a presale code not get a ticket ?

    Cheers for that , Was waiting ages for the link in the email to work but once i clicked on that link i had tickets within seconds


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,846 ✭✭✭discombobulate


    Anyone know if these are still available? Don't mind buying a CD if they are. Tried the code in this thread and it says all gone using that but not sure if that's just because the code has been used.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 171 ✭✭Gavinz


    I'd say you'll have to try your luck in the morning.
