    I remember there was a way to view/select whats available so your not given random crap.
    Can anybody remember what that is?

    It seems to have reverted to the old Ticketmaster site today. Even putting '1' after the www is not working.

    Got my 2 standing tickets, despite the app and browser not playing nice for a while.
    Delighted with my morning's purchase.

    Now, roll on February!

    Hey, I got it through offer on my 3 app

    funny, didn't see it pop up, iphone or android?

    Good catch for you though :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,252 ✭✭✭Ricosruffneck


    Was it the case of a specific CODE or just a link to a ticketmaster page?

    If it's just a Ticketmaster link required could you forward or post? Thanks

    Not seeing it on my 3 Plus app, but I got a pre-sale code using 3 Plus....



    This a way of having more people in the venue when ticket sales are poor?

    May have gone out to people that requested the presale code previously.

    Edit: sorry i assumed you got this free code, did you?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 90 ✭✭whomenonotme


    I bought tickets using the pre-sale code, got them before the general sale

    Ah i see,

    so it's just a random thing who recieved this recent offer then, i guess?

    the cynic in me says if the venue is half sold out, they will give away enough tickets to fill up the space. it happened at the robert plant and counting crows concerts last year, but i've no idea how many tickets were sold and how many freebies were given.

    I got tickets for both of those, gave the counting crows to friends.

    Robert plant and Van were awesome.

    Sorry to start the usual silly questions:o but don't think I've gone to a gig in the 3/O2/Point on a Sunday before. Doors seem to open relatively early. What time do gigs finish up at and what time do bands normally hit the stage at??

    no support, Massive Attack should be on stage for 8:30pm and doors open 6:30pm. from MCD website

    Was reading an interview with them in the Guardian the other day, it's going to be a big AV event, videos by Adam Curtis, documentarian par excellence.

    Films by acclaimed documentary-maker Adam Curtis, collaboratively made with Del Naja for what seems to be Massive Attack’s most ambitious show yet, are projected on giant screens. It’s a mind melt. Curtis’s signature aesthetic reels through a potted history of the past two decades – from trash pop culture to devastating scenes of war.

    Ah that's deadly!


    Love Adam Curtis - this'll be trippy and unsettling, in a good way :)

    what have the reviews been like so far...positive?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,542 ✭✭✭Dante7


    This gig is obviously selling badly for some reason, hence the ticket giveaways. It is being advertised heavily on my social media feeds.

    There's some clips up from their Glasgow show last January.

    Standing is sold out and not many tickets were put on the three app.
