It astonishes me that Peter Aiken is up to his neck in promises he can't keep, again. He himself admitted the Brooks thing left him looking like "an eejit". A greedy eejit if you ask me. It matters not that Garth Brooks is shyte and Taylor Swift is too, but her people got in first and arguably the greatest music act of the rock age, The Rolling Stones, is not going to play in Croke Park on May 17th. Put your wallets away lads.

The residents have said 3 concerts only I don’t think they will roll over on this and I can’t see how DCC can grant a licence after last time At least tickets haven’t been sold this time! Rules state 3 concerts per year, also no pre meeting was held which was brought in after Garth Brooks fiasco.https://www.rte.ie/news/dublin/2018/0226/943664-croke-park-concert/

People had to pay for hotels they no longer needed etc This is dodgy territory if they deny Rolling Stones people will go mad....If they allow it people will go mad (the residents and people who missed out on Garth) Residents on news stating that 3 concerts have already been granted licences...doesn't matter how many concerts or who it is, they are holding to the 3 concerts a year.

PTH2009 wrote: » different promoters but surly Aiken should of hinted the stones were playing here unless early negotiations only started after the swift shows were booked ??? On the stones forums they think they have a backup venue in Dublin booked in case. Be nice if they played the Aviva instead If anyone is going to the residents meeting tonight keep us informed
