U2: Third Gig Imminent

Mr E

Just heard on the radio that MCD say there will be no third gig.....

[Edit - Oh yes there is!.... Can't select tickets yet, though...]

Yeap, same here.

Why do ticketmaster.ie have it listed on their site though?

"Promoters MCD have confirmed that a third concert will not be taking place. "


from rte.ie

Mr E

Of course (in hindsight), its just a very good marketing ploy.

MCD will "pull some strings for the fans" and their keen negotiation skills will result in a 3rd gig (which we all know was always going to happen anway). And we'll all love MCD for doing it. And the hype for the next batch of tickets will be even bigger than the first batch.

The third gig has now been removed from that page - looks like somebody jumped the gun

Reckon it'll be another advanced notice thing?
If I remember correctly U2 concert two at Slane was announced around this time of the day, and immediately released.
Uggh this is killing me!
Did they really have a third gig listed on the ticketmaster site?
Surely if there is to be another gig, then the best bet is to just wait out HMV?

HMV sucks.

There's no thrid gig listed now...
