    Same sentiment here. I hope everyone going enjoys the gigs.


    Hopefully there will be a dvd out soon with all the filming going on and we can relive it all again getting hammered in our sitting rooms. A garth brooks dvd for Christmas would be a great ending to what is a truly horrific year. By far the worst year. The GB gigs is the highlight of the year for sure.

    Netflix documentary prob won't be out til next year but nice if its sooner than later

    If your bored sometime take a read of the wacky 2014 thread. Really hope 'mrs garth brooks' got to one of the shows this year

    Thankfully I am not easily bored. I definitely won't be dipping into that thread from the past.

    I am still looking on ticketmaster for a ticket for tomorrow but there's nothing coming up. I doubt I am going to get anything now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭glitterIsland


    There's still no extra or promotion seats for sale on ticketmaster for tomorrow. I was hoping for a few seats here and there over the day but unfortunately nothing. I think it's time for me to give up on it now and make other plans for the weekend.


    I was due to have plans for this weekend but they were cancelled so I was hoping on getting a ticket but when I went to check earlier in the week, they were all sold out.


    I think it's just not meant to be tomorrow. I was half thinking about going to Dublin tomorrow in case tickets went on sale along the way but a post above said Garth was handing out tickets to all and sundry that he passed this week. I doubt there will be any more tickets tomorrow.


    Unless if anyone here works in ticketmaster or Aiken promotions and can hint otherwise. I doubt it.

    I didn't get a chance to browse any merchandise last week because I was too busy legging it in to get a place in the pit.


    There was an add on the screens saying you can get garth brooks stuff in O Connells or O Carroll gifts. Is the stuff in O Carroll official merchandise or is it other stuff.

    Wife there tonight with 5 of her mates. I was the wizard that got them their perfect tickets when they went on sale yonks ago, got all the kudos.

    Anyway they loved it, I'd say if he announce an impromptu night in POC or the Gaelic Grounds they'd be gone in seconds

    Another thought, Garth Brooks must think it never rains in Ireland



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭glitterIsland


    Is that the shop in Dublin?


    That's its then. That's my plan for tomorrow. I'm going to Dublin to do some shopping and hopefully ticketmaster will release more tickets tomorrow which is doubtful.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,117 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    That was the merch stand in Premium Level in Croker but that shop is bang in the centre of Dublin

    Best of luck hope you get your ticket

    I thought that was a picture from the shop in Dublin. I can't get into Croker without a ticket.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭glitterIsland


    I checked Facebook and there is a pop up shop in Dublin with merchandise so I will go to Dublin tomorrow to get some merchandise and a souvenir from last weekend.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 11,718 ✭✭✭✭John_Rambo


    If I had tickets I'd give them to you. Hopefully someone on the thread can direct you to valid tickets.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭glitterIsland


    Thank you. Its ok. I'm looking all the time. I'm going to Dublin shopping tomorrow and if I get a ticket along the way, happy days, if not, so be it. At least I got to see him once last weekend which actually nearly never happened for me but it did in it. There's someone praying for me.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,045 ✭✭✭jpfahy


    Can someone tell me what time he comes on stage and what time the concert is likely to finish please?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,425 ✭✭✭ooter


    started just after 8 tonight and finished around 10 o clock.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,425 ✭✭✭ooter


    I was there tonight and there's merchandise on sale before you go through the turnstiles, there was at the Cusack stand anyway. you'll get up to that point no problem without a ticket.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,940 ✭✭✭✭hynesie08


    Really hope 'mrs garth brooks' got to one of the shows this year.

    That crazy cow tried to hack my account, I hope she got fcuk all.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭glitterIsland


    Ticketmaster now thinks I'm a bot. Still nothing available this morning. I will still keep looking over the day incase odd tickets becomes available but I doubt it. I'm going to Dublin soon anyways.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,701 ✭✭✭✭The Nal


    Set up an alert here. A good few sold yesterday for last night.

    Last night was fantastic, great show and show man. Only issue I had was the dirty cigarette smoke intermittently filling the air on the pitch. I didn't think there was that many smokers left.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 77 ✭✭padre78


    Thanks for the responses guys.

    Barriers open in Connolly on the way in and also in drumcondra on the way out. Priority is definitely to get people away on the trains.

    More importantly.....what a show. For anyone going tonight, you are in for a treat. Enjoy.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭glitterIsland


    I had the same issue last week. I was right at the front of the stage at the barriers and there were people smoking with cameras rolling up and down and we were all crammed side by side. Smoking is banned on the grounds but there should be regular announcements put out over the speakers or screens to remind people it's a no smoking ground. Before the gig starts. Like the announcements in cinemas. It's dangerous smoking in such a large crowd. Without announcements it's an accident and a compo claim waiting to happen. Without announcements, I think its negligence. Same also applies to the Aviva. I was at a gig there before and there were people smoking on the pitch.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭glitterIsland


    Still nothing becoming available on the ticketmaster.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,425 ✭✭✭ooter


    the queues for the womens toilets were absolutely ridiculous last night, a good 20 minute wait before the show started anyway and again at the end, not sure what it was like during the show.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 188 ✭✭glut22


    I wasn't drinking (female also) so didn't need to use them thankfully. Apparently the men's urinals were horrendous although much quicker



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 188 ✭✭glut22


    I also think its inherently selfish to inflict your dirty smoke on others around you in a confined space but that's a topic for another day.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 477 ✭✭glitterIsland


    I think it might be time to give up on a ticket for tonight or is there any hope for odd seats becoming available later



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 64 ✭✭OrlaFS2017


    Our ticketswap tickets worked!
