    Its changed direction by the looks of it, no electronic acts announced yet.

    Was this not the one that was advertising Annie Mac and others a couple of weeks ago?

    Edit:

    Are you sure you haven't purchased 2 tickets for Annie Mac on the 28th October.

    Although the link has Liam's picture - it directs you to the Annie Mac booking.

    Check your confirm email.

    To be fair, I can see how you did that.... Kind of misleading by MCD...

    To be honest, only for I knew your one's tickets were onsale this evening, I'd have done the exact same thing and bought 2 myself without checking twice. Hopefully they can do something for you.

    I see the gig listed on ticket master now and a start time of 7pm.

    I am assuming this is for the start of the whole gig and Liam wouldn't be on stage that early surely and the other bands will be playing before he comes on much later in the evening ?

    Trying to put my logistics and plans in place when I hopefully get tickets on Friday.
    Thanks folks.

    I cant imagine Liams set being any different/longer than what he has been doing lately, so this could be right. Half hour Touts, 45 for the Strypes, hour and a bit for Liam?

    Anyone have a clue what 4000 square metres would be capacity wise?

    Can’t believe I fell for it myself. TM just denied a refund

    If I do a chargeback I don’t care if the card is blocked again but I have events coming up, don’t want them impacted

    Hmmm....

    Saw the lineup on facebook the otherday was really impressed hopefully I can get some mates to come, I like Liam allot but to be honest haven't given his most recent album a proper listen, but did enjoy Beady Eye despite it probably not doing aswell commercially as High Flying birds. But hey that doesn't bother me.

    Be awkward, did you take screenshots etc? If so take them to small claims court, they'll pay up in a heartbeat

    No screenshot... it was MCD that had the link to the festival on the press release. They updated it last night because when I noticed after I bought the ticket the page refreshed to "under maintenance"

    I was under time pressure on the site and my card wouldn't register for ages. I can't believe I didn't see "annie mac" in small text next to the "Samhain Festival" in large writing

    Just sell the tickets on adverts or toutless. If you have to take a small haircut on it... so be it. Don't waste your time chasing TM. They're the machine.

    Was there a mention of a ticket limit per transaction for Friday?

    65m by 60m so just over half the size of a soccer pitch .
    Probably 5-6 thousand I'd guess,something similar to the Marquee in Cork.
