    Will see if he plays any G-Dead stuff and pick a ticket up on that basis. His own stuff is diabolical.

    Speaking of diabolical, I hope he doesn't play one Dead tune.

    You're diabolical for even saying such a thing. ;)

    Dude is a fantastic guitarist.

    It's a lean enough list of dates alright. I think he's on record though as saying that he doesn't really like the touring experience.

    That luxury is gone though, even for John Mayer - If you want to earn some money for your music and aren't one of the top selling pop acts, you need to go on the road.

    Bejaysus. Think it was his Oxford University talk where he mentioned not being mad about it, huh.

    So what's his excuse then for ignoring us all these years?! :pac:

    Don't know, wonder how his night in whelans was.

    Just was watching a Instagram post one day saying he loves touring. Touring with the grateful dead has brought his love back.

    So perhaps he's changed his mind only in past 4yrs

    Good shout. Not into the Dead myself, but he is, and I'd say it's a pleasure to tour and play with your idols. He seems to really enjoy that gig.

    What night in Whelan's was that btw?

    I'm still trying to crack that Dead nut. Hopefully it'll happen sooner or later. I'm not denying their talent or place/influence in music history, I just can't get into them.

    We'll see though, I was not into Frank Zappa in my 20s and never thought I would be, but he's one of my favourite artists in my 30s.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,016 ✭✭✭Zardoz

    He will add the obligatory second date in London on the 14th .
    Dublin will not get a second date as there is no room in his schedule.
    Is he even that popular in Ireland ??

    Amsterdam will get a second night.

    There is room in the schedule, the previous day.

    I may overestimate his popularity but people travel to see him.

    On the plus side you could almost say the 3arena would be more intimate than the UK gigs.

    Anyway we shall see tomorrow. Short tour he'll try to maximise if he can.

    I think he's one of these rarities in Europe that would warrant sell out. I think he may have a harder time in the Scandinavian countries though.

    Mainstream wise...no. He's very popular with guitarists and musicians though (as well as despised by some) and although that wouldn't sell-out one night in the 3 Arena alone never mind two nights, I'd say this gig will sell well.

    The few musician pages I'm on have been lighting up since this gig was announced. I'd actually say it'll be a bigger cockfest than last year's Toto gigs in Vicar Street. :pac:

    There is no room .
    He plays London on the 13th and the extra date will be the 14th as the 12th is booked by another artist..

    He is playing Dublin the 16th so you think he will add the 15th ,no chance of that .

    Its the intimate standing setup being used ,seats from row 5 up which is much more intimate than the UK venues.
    The standing area will be very small ,his UK gigs are all seated.

    I see, didn't know about the London schedule. Yep guess we only get the one gig.

    Better get the best seats going now instead of buying two separate dates. Cheers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,130 ✭✭✭Ricosruffneck


    What bugs me is that on ticketmaster you can't check what the price of tickets will be.

    Does anyone know the different prices based on standing/seating, lower/upper tier?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,016 ✭✭✭Zardoz


    €73.75 - €83.75 is the price range

    Good bit of recon there. That rules out a second Irish date for me. No way he'd do a second show in Dublin but not London.

    So...

    Any chance of him just running the 'Where The Light Is' gig in Dublin? That'll do me just fine :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,130 ✭✭✭Ricosruffneck


    well that was stressful, desktop didn't get one

    app got it in the end multiple times.

    Not amazing seating in terms of direction facing stage, namely G and A, I got row 6 in A so i'm happy.

    All presale standings are gone but there will be more on general sale.

    You normally cant select seats on Presale tickets so it was random earlier. You can try again on Friday but make sure you're online at 9 it'll be gone fast

    Been quite a while since I was in the 3Arena, would it be best to go for seating or standing for this gig. Don’t want to spend the night looking at a screen,

    seating.. allows you to enjoy and not worry about tall people. Also you have a drink holder.

    This isn't the blues guy or is that John Mayall.

    If you want to get into it, you got to get out of it. (Hawkwind 1982)

    I'm not into him but he's the epitome of mainstream.

    Sold out instantly ??

    Here in Ireland? I disagree that he is 'mainstream' for his music let alone the epitome of the term. Before this gig announcement, in recent years he rarely featured on Irish radio playlists. Even with the likes of Tom Dunne and John Creedon who can have varied and eclectic selections for their shows. It appears that he hasn't played a gig here since 2004 in Vicar Street, and never really seemed to focus on Ireland anyway such was his superstar status elsewhere.

    Artists who are mainstream in Ireland play on mainstream Irish radio regularly and sell-out the 3 Arena on the first day of sale. Gone way off-topic now, but as a fan of his music I disagree.

    I went to see him in Singapore last week. Had seen him Glasgow years ago and cried my way through the gig he was so good.

    This time was different. Only cried during slow dancing and Free fallin . Oh and a little during edge of desire coz I knew the gig was almost over.

    I have been to many amazing gigs but my 2 JM experiences are in a league of their own.

    I am thinking of planning a trip home from Malaysia to eh "see my family" in October....

    Do it.

    Caught him last year in Amsterdam, I was blown away.

    Have tickets for first rows in this gig. Thank you Presale code!

    Info from Ticketmaster:
    Doors: 6.30pm
    No support, show start 7:30pm start with Intermission

    Went to see him in the US this summer....he came on about 7.50pm and played for just over an hour, 30 mins intermissions and then back out for about 1.5 hours. Probably expect the same next week.

    Should be awesome!:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,467 ✭✭✭5star02707


    Any Idea how the seats will be set up? from Ticketmaster image it seems there will be a small portion for standing but what prices are they goin for, VIP / Platinum?

    Also would they not block the views for the 1st few rows?
