I'm dreading it!

Might get lucky seeing as seated tickets aren't selling well.
If it was close to sell out, you would get dirt upper ones as far away as possible. But it doesn't make sense for them to put you miles away if there's empty seats in better sections

Hopefully! It's my own fault. The 2nd batch of standing weren't released and I couldn't afford the 90 tickets so had to go with it. Sure I'll be there, that's the main thing, and if I squint I'm sure I'll see the band!

Folks are all the gold circle tickets "Stile A"? Assume so just checking.

How long are this shower getting for a support slot? 7pm to 7.40ish? Stones at 8.30?

Where’s a good beer garden locally to drink before the gig??

It looks nice. Might go there. Would it not be totally wedged though?

I'm out in Dún Laoghaire at the moment... My God, the weather is sensational.

Fifth bottle already.... It's what Keef would have wanted

I was busy but not totally wedged before Springsteen. Fairly comfortable.

Only if its the 5th bottle of vodka.

We are about to see the greatest rock n roll band of all time in a few hours, genuine living legends

Cracker of a day, beats a miserable muddy day in slane last time they were here

Have a great night everyone!!!!!!!

Good day that was though...

Can't wait for tonight. Hope they do Under My Thumb.

Not expecting it to beat last year's Croker gig. One moment of that was my best ever gig experience but, it's The Stones. It's Mick. It's Ireland. It's life. It's glorious

Done a bottle before a gig before.. The hands did not want to play the notes the mind was telling it to

Lads since it's not sold out, will it be possible to stand even if your tickets are seated, or are two sections separated?

The living room/murreys smoking area is fairly busy. It's at the top of O Connell Street and 15 min walk from Croke

OK, its a beautiful day, I'm drowning in nostalgia for Slane 82, just been on Tickermaster and now myself and the kids are heading down

I'm sure it'll be worth it right ?

Pitch standing now available for €30 on viagogo

If anyone can provide info about the price touts are charging outside the venue I'd much appreciate it, shamelessly looking for a discount

Tommo3434343

Any signs of stage times for the lads? Not arsed being in there to see the Academic. Would being in for 8.30 be safe enough?

Thats pushing it I'd imagine.

Mrs Shuttleworth

Can't wait for this now. It'll be great seeing them not as a dot in the distance.

This will be a historic night.

Later everyone

I can't see that on Viagogo. I must be looking in wrong place. Just see them for about €90. I reckon, you'd pick up a ticket outside CP on the cheap at about 8.15. Thinking of heading over. I wouldn't mind missing the beginning, if I got one of the last few tickets from touts for couple of quid.

aka accounts 2010

Just seen €30 tickets on Viagogo aswell. Plus all the usual fees of course.

best way is a taxi.
next best is probably walk to Bus Aras luas stop, and get the Luas to Heuston.

you'll be cutting it fine though.
