Got presale “Premium” tickets just there - €86! I must be mad. Wonder how much of the field will be so called “Premium” for €10 extra?! Probably 50% robbing bastar*s!!

brainboru1104 · 15-02-2022 11:19am

It looks too pricey for me.

It’s the way it’s going unfortunately. €7.15 “service charge” per ticket when the so called ticket is a barcode on your phone. I wish they’d bring back the card tickets.

From memory his past gigs here were around the 40 euro mark so it's close to double the price.

Seems a bit OTT.

Any word on support?

notahappycamper · 15-02-2022 11:33am

I suppose MCD are making up for lost Revenue on account of Covid 🙄 no word on support. The sound better be fcuking amazing. RHK can be a bit dodgy.

I'm pretty sure Liam is cashing in on his resurgent popularity, his management surely knows it won't last forever.

notahappycamper · 15-02-2022 11:42am

Of course. But remember, the acts don’t directly dictate ticket price. He plays for a set fee I imagine and MCD work out costs of staging the gig etc etc.

He has definitely improved in fairness to him Looked like Liam was finished when he tried Beady Eye. I would argue he has bypassed that brother of his in his solo career. Noel has become sort of a Karaoke singer almost. Liam is now doing the stuff he is good at songs with bite.

But those tickets do look pricey. Given that is not a top notch A lister these days.

Trigger Happy · 15-02-2022 11:43am

I got a ticket for this too and paid for the 'premium' standing. Be interesting to see what the story is with that.

It will be a pleasant enough way to spend a saturday evening at the end of August.

jimosterberg · 15-02-2022 11:58am

I presume premium means a pit of some kind? So pricey. Hopefully there's some good support and it's an all day event at not 6pm as it says.

Looking forward to it all the same.

Noel is playing in st anne's park, tickets are 50 so a good bit cheaper to LG.

Although anne's park supposed to be a bit of a nightmare of a venue ( compared to Kilmainham anyway which is a great location)

Anybody have a link to a "Premium" ticket. None left on the MCD presale.

SuperBW · 16-02-2022 10:20pm

They were 50 quid (malahide and 3 arena). He's taking the pi** with 70 bucks.

Of course I just bought 2😁

Sorry the above was meant to be a response to previous poster @mikekerry. Haven't posted here in a while!

Noel has some legit great solo songs .... far better than anything Liam has done as a solo artist. Ironic you say he's become a karoake singer when in fact 80% of Liams set is Oasis tunes. No doubt Noel has a hefty setlist of Oasis tunes but he's got a far bigger selection of solo songs to pick from.

Liam is surfin the wave of popularity at the minute but he's just not a great song writer and most of the songs i've heard from him are comically bad. I wouldn't stick them on twice. That said, i'd still go and see him for the nostalgia part of his set.

When I say Karaoke songs I mean Noel's songs sound like Karaoke songs. That sort of electronic slow thing going on very bland - yeah I realise he is not aiming for stadium rock. But even taking that into account - since Noel went solo I think there is only one song I really enjoyed is that he did 'the death of you and me'. Besides that very poor almost lazy and it has gotten progressively worse IMO. For someone who is supposed to be a great songwriter. Liam was smart enough to get other songwriters on board to help him. Made a big difference.

I am going to see him in Manchester in June, just checked the price of my ticket again , total £75.60 including add on fees etc.

I got the hotel and flights cheaper than the cost of the concert ticket ! , but a good summer gig to look forward to.

I didnt jump on the Dublin tickets, will wait until closer to the time and see what is knocking around with people looking to shift their tickets.

Last time he played Dublin, plenty of tickets were knocking about for less than face value and same with Noels gig in Malahide, people selling them off cheap.

Liam does put on a superb show in fairness to him, he has a lot of gigs this year, hopefully the voice holds up .

Liam definitely, great show he puts on, rock and roll star style .

Noel’s gigs much different , I’m not a big fan of a lot of his new music , last time I seen him in the 3 arena I was borderline bored .

Noel can't really do justice to the Liam sung tunes either. His version of Go Let It Out is awful.

Muahahaha · 30-05-2022 8:42am

Going to see Liam later in the week at Knebworth, I believe he is playing to 250,000 over two nights so should be pretty special given their history with that venue. Anyone know how much he plays his own tunes and how much Oasis?.Anywhere to find a set list?
