    Highly unlikely there will be any Irish date looking at their schedule.
    The second half of that tour is all in stadia with closable roofs.
    September is out due to GAA in Croke Park and October would be too late for an outdoor concert .

    they might do a UK/Ireland arena tour in November or December but its highly doubtful. More than likely might play a few shows in the o2 arena london and thats it

    Love to see them but think the chance could be gone as there not young men and this could be the last tour :(:(:(. Cant afford to travel to see them

    Unless they play the Aviva in September, the stadium is about the size of other venues on the tour. Aviva has hosted gigs in September in the past as well.

    logistically it would have to be between the 1-7 september as there more and less in central europe for the whole of september

    Roger Waters did not sell many tickets and was prob easier to manage in september than say a sold out stones gig

    never know though

    How much would a ticket be? €100?

    That's true ,the Aviva could host them ,the reason I mentioned Croke Park as the Stones were supposed to be the third gig there this year .

    Could possibly do it in September/Oct though as if we get the RWC matches will likely take place in the evening time around sep/oct??

    RWC is 2023, Croker is fully booked every weekend in September so be hard to see a roll in/roll out for gigs let alone impact the surface with a final every weekend.

    But wouldn't Ireland and UK dates have been announced the other day if they were going on.

    I think the best we can hope for is a jaunt over to the o2 or the Ethiad Stadium in Manchester in the last quarter of the year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,206 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Just read they've ruled out UK shows for this year due to no venues at time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,429 ✭✭✭finbarrk


    GA tickets went fairly quick on the dates that went on sale the other day. The more expensive seats were still available earlier today at a couple of the venues.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,429 ✭✭✭finbarrk


    I got a Barcelona ticket earlier anyway. Lower level seat. €127.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,429 ✭✭✭finbarrk


    Spare ticket for Paris 25 October available.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,169 ✭✭✭✭MadYaker


    For €750 you can get
    PIT Ticket and Hotel Experience
    To include:-

    One Incredible General Admission Floor/Pitch Standing Ticket in the
    ULTRA-Exclusive No Filter Pit

    A choice of overnight hotel accommodation close to the venue
    (additional nights available upon request)

    Complimentary breakfast

    Commemorative ticket pack

    Tickets and Information packs sent in advance

    24/7 Customer service

    All taxes

    So if you want to be in the front pit you gotta buy one of these it seems. That's for Barcelona. It's seems normal standing and most of the seated are sold out so it's either this or a seat up in the rafters.

    I'm heading over to Amsterdam to see them. Really looking forward to it. Paid €155 for a really good seat.

    With flights and hotel it adds up to much more obviously but it's the Stones..... and one of them could be gone in the morning and I'll never get another chance!

    Saw them in Havana Cuba! Such an epic show, somewhere around 600,000 to 700,000 people and they played nothing but there biggest hits. What a nite
    Have some awesome video, wish I could post it?

    Great night in Amsterdam. Enjoyed the first half (some less commonly played songs) more than the second (hits, hits and more hits) though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,429 ✭✭✭finbarrk


    Also a great night in Barcelona last week. There was an amazing amount of South Americans that travelled over for it. Uruguay, Argentina and Peru especially. Never smelt such a strong cannabis smell as on the pitch that night!
