This should be good craic, didn’t expect Motley Crue would ever get to Ireland, really looking forward to it, even if Vince totally hasn’t got it anymore

scudzilla

No thanks,

Band of the tour from the US LEG, Poison, ain't playing,

Doubtful Mick Mars will be here either (Jonny 5 from Rob Zombie band replacing)

Vince's voice shot and has been for years.

Def Leppard playing a rake of songs from their recent and awful new album.

The disasters getting to, from and into Marlay Park

Rather suck shite through a straw

Def are like Sheffield's Bon Jovi, no time for them, liked their debut album a bit, Motley I seen back in 1984 at Donington and that was their debut UK gig I think back then.

That's unfair, they are much much better than those new jersey toss pots.

PTH2009

Seen Leppard a few times and most recently 2018 where they done the whole 'Hysteria' album. This will be the first and possibly only time I'll see them outdoors. Always a good show

With the 'The End' tour in 2015 been touted as the last tour from Crue, I decided to head over to Manchester to see them (actually my first ever flight) and it was good. Nikki is full of **** as you expect and Tommy Lee not far behind him

As someone siad its not going to be like the 80s vocal wise/musically but a sunny day with the beers flowing it could be a great day.

I'm guessing there might be golden circle and general admission. The ticketmaster page states 'General Admission Only' but it saying that for 'Depeche Mode in Malahide' it siad the same and there ended up been GC and GA

Noticed that no 'plus support' on the poster. Hopefully they add something. Seems to be marketed as different tour than 'The Stadium Tour'

There are 3 things I hate more than anything when it comes to live music.

Tuesday shows

Marlay park shows

Watching a band way past their prime embarrassing themselves.

So safe to say this one is a miss.......

Shame because Def Leppard doing their 2009-2035 shtick indoors is usually a good night.

PTH2009

Darn for some reason thought the London show was in 'London Stadium' and not Wembley

Always wanted to go to Wembley for something. Hotel prices in London around the area have sky rocketed as you'd expect and would don't know that area at all

Ah well Marlay Park will have to do

RayCon

13 yr old me would have thought "Fcuking yes !"

50 yr old me thinks "Fcuking No !"

furiousox

1984 at Donington, 1986 at Hammersmith Odeon, 2011 at MEN Arena Manchester

If this gig was in the Aviva I'd go, but Marlay Park and possibly no Mick Mars......?

As much as I'd (kind of) like to see them one more time, I'm giving this one a miss.

Hotel prices in London don't change much because of the number of major events in the city. Every weekend over the winter there will be two major football matches, perhaps something at Twickenham, and the O2. In the summer it's cricket, tennis, tourism and these gigs

You will generally find a cheap Travelodge or the like, as well as all the smaller hotels. London is very easy to get across. If I'm flying into London City I'll often stay at the Travelodge there. It's then 20 mins into the City on the DLR. 10 mins to the O2. Another 20 out to one of the major stadiums. Wembley has a couple of major tube stations and a rail station that takes you straight to/from Marylebone. they are used to shifting 100,000 attendees. I've probably been there 50+ times for football and concerts. If you properly plan it's quite easy to get back into the city.

For Taylor Hawkins I stayed near Paddington and jumped on the Tube at Paddington

I saw them in McGonagles even though I wasn't a fan at all - Ozzy did similar small gigs there the year before so I thought I'd go along. Turned out it was their first gig in something like three years and a warm up show for The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert a few days later at Wembley. They played Queen's "Now I'm Here" which was quite good. It wasn't advertised and there was only a few hundred people at it even though they were still considered Stadium/Arena level.

Quite impressive I must say but the sound was what I remember - it was exceptional.

Doubt I'd go to this even with free tickets which occasionally pop up for me when Marlay gigs are on.

Crue tribute band.

Lol at all the comments saying they should sack Vince and get this guy in.

Even Adlers Appetite sound better than GnR so.... why not? 😃

maddness

Tuesday night is a bit poxy alright but I live down the road so it’s very handy. I’m a Def Leopard fan and they always put on a good show, Motley Crew not so much.

PTH2009

Presales start on Tuesday, Def Leppard have the 'Rock Brigade' fan club but its a subscription service @ €59 for the year (t-shirt and pin included) and can't see to find if Crue have a fan club. Had a look there and you have to buy a t-shirt or something through the online store to get a code

Shouldn't be a problem getting a ticket but the sooner getting that cost out of the way the better

Stephen Gawking

Always wanted to see the Crüe but with the prices, the fact their best days are long behind them & that its Marley park means I'll reluctantly pass.

You'll definitely pick up a cheap ticket a few days/weeks before the gig

If you like football better off at a play-off final or the womens FA cup for the stadium, Jess Glynne performing at a charity shield game was enough for me not to be sussing out gigs there and she performed well even though not my thing. I actually like the arena but seems to get a bad rep.

Anyway other than a Sainsburys and restaurants/eateries that depend on event day trade there is f all there, stayed in one of the hotels once that was a good rate but the recommendation would be much better off taking the tube in, very convenient. You don't need to know area just go there attend whatever and leave for a proper location ha.

Crues indoor shows were a lot more theatrical then I imagined

Looking at YouTube of some of the US shows the outdoor show still looks decent. How it will work on a sunny evening in Marlay Park is another thing. Few nice sights there alright

Someone in MCD needs a slap, it's 'Crue' not 'Crew'

Thanks for that.

Do you know what the difference between the two GA prices are?

PTH2009

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119791395#Comment_119791395

No idea but I'm guessing maybe like Metallica in Slane a few years back there could be a barrier or something separating the 2 GA zones

You can buy tickets now using the first link on the TM page but you have to buy a membership to Def Leppards fan club for €64. Feck that I'll try my luck in the MCD presale tomorrow

Yeah feck that I say getting a ticket for this should be handy enough I don't really see it selling out

Buy the cheapest ones, it'll be like GnR and they'll be handing out gold circle passes on the day.

RayCon

I reckon there will be shed loads of cheapo tickets doing the rounds on the lead up to this.

PTH2009

Gold circle ticket secured, roll on July

Hoping more support will be added since the gates are down to open at 4pm

Any pre sale codes?
