    Are Broncho definitely the only support act on the night?

    This, below, from Irish Times, says QOTSA not on stage till 9pm:

    What time does everything kick off?
    Doors open at 6.30pm and support will come from Broncho, who will kick things off at 7.30pm. QOTSA are expected on stage at 9pm. These times are subject to change.

    7:30 - 8:15, 45 minute turnaround. Wouldn’t be too far off I’d say.

    Although I’d say 7:45 - 8:20 would be closer to reality for the support.

    Says they played in 2015 in the op. Did they play the 3 arena? Must have completely missed it as I would have went.

    They played 2013 on the like clockwork tour. Almost exactly 4 years ago. It popped up in my FB feed last week.

    Was at the London O2 gig last night....was unreal. As good, if not better, than their 2013 show. They also played "The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret" for the first time on tis tour - which made my night.

    I was there too. Was a great show!

    One of my favourite gigs of all time. Astounding night. A less than astounding morning the next day. The drive to my mates wedding in Slane was a disaster.

    Is the curfew for the 3arena not 11PM?

    I'd say qotsa will be on for 8:45 and finish up by 10:45, don't think I've ever been to a gig past 11 in the 3arena and qotsa usually play over two hours so starting before 9 would make sense.

    Tour looks a bit of a bummer. Seen a few complaints that they’re sloppy as fuke at the mo. Setlist v static also. When people are getting amped at Lost Art tour debuts you know there’s issues. Not sure whether the lift to arenas has helped them tbh. 14th time seeing them tomorrow so will reserve judgement...

    I've heard they're on fire. Do think the Set list so far is static, probably struggled with a flow when putting in new songs in US tour. In fairness, theres still a decent mix in there to cover everyone. They did fine in arenas last time.

    Queens have mixed things up their entire career. This static tour set is a new concept. It’s not welcome.

    I know. Its why I think they struggled on first leg of tour so are sticking with it for now. Can see the next leg being very different

    I'm also looking for a standing ticket if anyone can help. A mate bought one on seat wave as a surprise for another mate, the packet went missing and is currently somewhere in Tokyo ... Good old UPS :-(

    Last gig I was at in the 3Arena you could only bring in a bag the size of an A4 sheet (obviously it can be of a great depth though :P)

    I have a spare ticket for the gig if anyone needs one, pm me.

    Unless you’re going to multiple gigs, I don’t see a problem with a static set list. I haven’t looked at the set lists for this tour so tonight it’s going to be fresh for me.

    I’d wonder does playing arenas and having the lighting set up for certain songs make it easier to keep the same order for the most part.
