Something I noticed Tuesday night, on the band's backdrop, they've got the symbols for their 5 albums on it.

I'm so glad someone else noticed that too!

You're seriously underestimating the RAH the Olympia is grand an all but it's not a patch on it. There is like 12 different main entrances to divide the crowds then when inside my seat (Grand tier) was through a door that housed 8 people! even though there is an extra nearly 4k it's not like packed in like sardines in fact you'll find it's more spacious.

...I mean awful venue, show will be no good, I can do you a favor and buy your ticket?

Oh no I just meant in terms of seeing the band at home, it's always special.

Tickets for Olympia October show purchased

2 AB shows in 1 week. Not bad, eh?

She meant seeing them in Ireland..

Yeah, I meant seeing them in Ireland was seeing them at home for me because I live in the UK.

The Strypes and Little Hours! will be the support bands for the October gig.

Seriously? I've seen The Strypes and they're great!

Yeah, and Mark could be here next here with Tremonti..

Are you sure? Only place I saw this reported was Overdrive; the Strypes announced their own shows in Whelans perhaps a mix up very odd choices if so.

Hopefully. I was really impressed by how strong his voice is live.

I think after Tuesday night, Irish AB shows are going to become a regular thing...

I hope so. Honestly one of the best gigs I've ever had the pleasure of being at. It really does help when you know that the guys are such nice people and they're so hard working

Was 10 tickets in Grand Tier on RAH website just there for the first night, There's 9 now

Live At The O2 DVD is on its way in the post. Got an email from Nalpalm Records a couple of days ago. Knew I'd be home in Ireland so purposely got it delivered here

It's not a DVD

Right, CD then. There is a behind the scenes DVD in the version I ordered.

Might get it for the rarities disc, think their next DVD will be the upcoming Orchestral shows as they've canned the '13 recorded Milan gig supposedly.

As Lions to support on pretty much all the Euro dates including Dublin and Belfast.

Any good? Not heard them know that Bruce Dickinsons son Austin fronts them. He was previously in Rise to Remain who I'd the displeasure of seeing before.

Rock In Rio set.

2 weeks til Dublin gig

1 to RAH

RAH is 7:30-10:10 with a 25 min interval so a 2hr 15min set, sweet!!

I was raging I missed their last gig, I got my tickets the day they went on sale this time and was looking forward to it, but it looks like I might not be able to go.
Would anyone be interested in them? 2 standing tickets (why would you want a seat for this!!).

Actually with this particular venue the first 4 rows of the circle is the best place to be IMO

RAH 2moro first woohoo!

i was in the second row for the pixies a few years ago, but I always prefer the floor.
The Olympia is my favourite venue for a gig. I saw Myles singing there with slash a few years ago. That was my best concert in the Olympia.

Was at the Slash gig the (2nd night) been there for a many a gig and Alter Bridge in June was likely the best one in there for me, prefer the Academy or Button factory maybe Vicar but don't mind the Olympia sure.
