    All bases and eventualities covered there ! Fantasy …….. :rolleyes:

    A lot of this going on alright... And at the same time a lot of people are writing with unshakeable certainty on topics about which they most likely know nothing.

    Rumours are one thing, but suggestions along the lines of System of a Down supporting AC/DC at Slane call for a whole new thread: 2020 Irish Gigs (Speculation / Dreams / Delusions) :pac:

    I don't think anyone suggested that acdc, soad was an actual rumour, another poster said along the lines of acdc with support from soad would be a great day out, to which I replied definitely as in it definitely would be a great day out 😂

    Elbow, who will release their eighth studio album, ‘Giants of All Sizes’ on 11 October, have announced the following tour dates:

    ▪ 3Arena, Dublin - Saturday, 28 March 2020
    ▪ Waterfront, Belfast – Sunday, 29 March 2020

    Just picked up tickets for this in the pre-sale for Belfast. They're on sale through the Waterfront website, not ticketmaster. Sooooooooooooooo nice not to have booking fees added onto the price of the tickets. :D

    Very strange announcement for this.
    Announced at midnight, and tickets on sale at 9am this morning.
    Crazy prices for the UK, £135 for some upper tier seats, £135-185 for lower tier.
    Loads of platinum and other packages too.
    Prices getting out of hand now.
    Ludicrous prices for what's essentially a karaoke act.

    Tindersticks playing NCH on 24th of May.

    Cannot for the life of me understand how this sells


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,351 ✭✭✭✭Arghus


    I don't get it either, it seems so ghoulish.

    It’s the future unfortunately.

    I don't think it actually is, tbh.

    One of the company's providing this tech has already gone out of business as they couldn't turn a profit on it, and there's also the cost of licencing the material for the show, which wouldn't come cheap for the likes of Whitney, Roy Orbison, etc.

    If people are happy to spend €60+ on what is essentially a film, then it'll catch on. But I don't think people will; it's just not worth shelling out for. If it was cheaper, you might consider it, but then the company isn't likely to turn a profit so... Give it a few years - if another recession hits, people wouldn't dream of splashing out to see the ghost of Whitney Houston!

    It's like a few years ago when we were told that the future of movies was 3D and, luckily, it just eased off over time. There'll be a few more hologram shows for sure but I don't think we'll be at a point of watching hologram Nirvana and hologram Beatles headling festivals any time soon.

    It's called life music for a reason. It comes across as a cynical attempt to cash in. Don't know why the estate would even sign off on it.

    Didn't think dynamic pricing has reached UK yet ...however after looking at Queen tickets a regular standing ticket was available for £79 yesterday and the same tickets is now £140. No fancy name such as platinum or VIP tagged with just straight up price increase.

    Would Celine Dion maybe do like Buble with 3 to 5 nights at 3 Arena?

    Dynamic pricing has reached the UK allright.
    Slipknot and Green Day had it for standing tickets ,basically doubled the price overnight .
    Nasty practice as Ticketmaster are manipulating supply to increase demand to maximise revenue.

    I paid 102 euro for a good seat in Block D last time for Queen in the 3Arena ,they will probably charge 150 euro next year .
    I wouldnt go to see them again , Adam Lambert is awful .

    Never understood the fascination with this. It must be a bit weird from the audience's perspective. Watching some audience clips from the Roy Orbison one and it's peculiar

    I remember seeing a Freddie Mercury hologram on a TV show and there was a Michael Jackson hologram at some awards ceremony. All very strange.

    How is the performer mean't to make a connection with the audience? It may as well be a tribute act/band on stage

    Wont be announced till next week but I'd expect them to be expensive.
    Think they were £45-£170 for the UK last year,so probably 99-170 euro here.
