    Was on Ticketmaster at 9 on the dot and no ground floor seats available, but told to look on Seatwave instead :rolleyes:

    Shenanigans going on there.

    Don't want standing or nosebleed seats.

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.

    There are no seats on the ground floor, it's standing only.
    Seats are on the first and second floor.
    They have added a second night on the Tuesday, you should be able to get good seats for that in the circle, first floor.

    Yeah it was lower circle I meant.

    Got 2 tickets just now, right at the side but not restricted view so should be ok.

    Right at the side is still good in the olympia as its not that wide anyway. The boxes are the real ones right at the side. I snuck into the boxes a few times and would prefer to be in the circle, except when you get a really bad seat with no leg room.

    The Olympia site is now saying there will be an update at 3. I'm not hopeful.

    http://www.erasureinfo.com/erasure-reschedule-dublin-shows-for-march/
    Following the unfortunate postponement of last week’s trio of sold out Erasure shows in Dublin, we are pleased to finally confirm that the rescheduled shows will take place at the same venue, Dublin’s Olympia Theatre, on March 13th, 14th and 15th this year.

    Thank you so much for your patience while we got this all sorted out, it proved a much more challenging exercise than anyone expected, but we are delighted to get this second chance to play to you as part of this year’s tour, and we hope to see as many of you as possible at the rescheduled shows.

    To be clear, show that was originally scheduled to take place on January 29th 2018 will now happen on March 13th, the January 30th show is rescheduled to March 14th, and the January 31st show will take place on March 15th. Tickets for last week’s postponed concerts will remain valid for the new dates.

    If the new dates do not work for you then refunds on your existing tickets will be available from point of purchase.

    some tickets available for this. the fact Row E is available and then skips to H suggests people have returned them. The second night even has a row B but only a single ticket
