    Why 3Arena? Seems like a strange decision, surely won't sell out and it'll just be weird sort of atmosphere. Anyone been to comedy shows in 3Arena before?

    Got given tickets to Seinfeld in O2 but it didn't work there at all. You watch the gig on the big screen, would never go to a gig there again. Jim should be doing Vicar or Olympia.

    A few nights in either (depending on sales) makes so much more sense.

    Similar to Louis CK, he is now one of the worlds biggest comedians. This will sell out, I'm sure of it

    Looks like they might not even open the top section, let alone sell out. There are loads of good tickets still available.

    Had a look on the presale on Thursday night and it said there were no floor seats available, offered me tiered seating in the 20th row as "best available"

    Checked ticketmaster the next day and got floor seats in the 12th row from the stage :confused:

    Good ol ticketscammer, they push the worse seats first quite often, then release better seats when they've a bunch of the poor ones sold. (Known fact from someone i know that worked there)

    It's packed. Either sold out or nearly sold our out. Can't spot a single free seat.

    Except for the one that the pink haired rabbit lady took of course.

    He was quite disinterested/hungover/worn out and once the vodka induced heckling started, game over. I wouldn't be surprised if he loped 15min off the end..

    3arena was to big. Far too many who only know him from youtubeing Bare and Freedumb. So when he decided to pare back to his unusual punishment show (fitting title), lot of dissatisfied punters.

    The hackling towards the end really sucked. I also found the constant stream of people going in and out and getting up and sitting down really disruptive. It was a good show but hes done better.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,988 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    I thought the first half of the show was excellent, the second half kinda tailed off a bit. The heckling got fairly annoying by the end.

    Was the same at Chris Rock. Bloke beside me had a tray of 4 pints for himself just as the show started. Polished them off and went back out for another 4. :confused:

    There was a punch up about half way through aswell and they all got kicked out.

    They should really close the bar before the show starts at comedy gigs in venues that big Ireland. Although I saw similar in the Olympia for Billy Connelly years ago. We're a fúcking dreadful country for comedy gigs. Embarrassing.

    The complete muppets going in and out for their booze fix ruined the night. Even Jim was surprised. Why do these idiots pay to go to a show? Not even an apology when thet barge past laden down with trays of beer. The Point or the O2 or whatever they call it now is a crap venue for comedy. Don't bother. Jim was funny (in spots). I thought he wasn't trying that hard. Some nuggets of brilliance though!
