Seeing as Elton has now rescheduled his Dublin gigs, might be useful to start a 2023 thread as others might start popping up.
The Commitments - 7th - 19th February (Olympia Theatre)
Elton John - 28th/29th March (3Arena)
Dermot Kennedy added a second night to marlay park
And if I could have got tickets I'd have gone both nights
Priority is to use a different ticket supplier if at all possible. TM a last resort.
Can buy UK tickets on Irish TM acc., that's it.
I've purchased tickets for UK gigs on my Irish account. Maybe the UK/Irish ones are on the same platform though.
Yes - My account works with .co.uk and .ie and I can buy for either jurisdiction from either URL and my payment cards show up on both
I will normally go into the UK site as otherwise my searches prioritise Ireland, and I rarely need to think about searching for Irish gigs as I tend to find any info I want in this forum!
Ireland/Uk are the same platform but for the rest of Europe each country Ticketmaster is separate.
I never said anything about the first hour of ticket sale. o2 doesn't let users select seats an hour later , a week later or even a month later. Thats a problem and you defend it . Why?
Also, not every gig that goes to the o2 is an insta sell-out so there's no reason why the o2 does not offer up seat selection other than cost cutting.
I'm explaining it, not defending it. If ya want to rant plough away on boards, otherwise you could try something constructive and write to Ticketmaster
It's been the 3 arena longer than it was the o2, if you're insistent on the edgelord gimmick, call it the point.
Steer conversation back to gigs and potential gigs.
Any hope we might get Smashing Pumpkins over here? Maybe Belsonic?
Wonder will we get Queens of the Stone Age show. Announced two dates in Germany already.
Thinking maybe Roger Waters might make a trip over since shows are getting cancelled.
Coronas for fairview Park in June
Main stage Sunday at EP, Fairview Park...wtf is wrong with people. I can't get my head around it.
If you think thats bad Joanne McNally and Vogue Williams sold out 2 nights at the 3arena and a third is going on sale.
There's no accounting for taste
I bought ticket to David Gray in 3Arena, or as you still call it o2. And i had an option to zoom in and pick whatever blue dot i wanted. Mind you, it was 2 months before the re-rescheduled gig
Are there any talks of gigs in smaller stadiums like Pearse stadium or nowlan Park for 2023?
I was thinking Croke Park and / or PUC Cork
Looking at her schedule there dont seem to be any gaps for Irish dates.
She could start the tour here in early June but with the new GAA schedule those dates may not be suitable.
King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - No Dublin date
That's a pity ... may travel for one of the shows. Fantastic band
Didn't they just play a festival in Waterford 7 or 8 weeks ago?
Yeah I think so .... but my festival days are long gone so no chance would I bother going to one for just one band. Rather see them headline. The were excellent when they played the Olympia in 2018.
Surprised at how short this EU/UK tour is ... only 1 date in each of Germany, Italy & France (they're big markets) , only 2 UK shows - both London.
Id assume they'll be back for the summer. Including festivals.
Didn’t they cancel a bunch of shows after ATN cause one of the band has a chronic illness.
probably only doing low key runs next year to see how he deals with it
Yeah know they were meant to play All Points East in London but pulled out of it.
Blink 182 uk/European tour for Sept/Oct 2023
Blink 182 playing Belfast and Dublin in September. Around the same weekend as Electric Picnic but that could just be a coincidence. https://twitter.com/mcd_productions/status/1579804702379630592?t=_yakwsvWFMES5bvo945s7Q&s=19
Brilliant will definitely try for a ticket
Another of the Kerrang Era greats
Actually looks like they're playing Glasgow the Friday of EP and the Belfast gig the Sunday so probably unlikely to feature at EP so.
I'll await reports on whether or not Tom still sings in that fcuking stupid way before I commit to this.
Any idea of ticket prices for it? Can't see anything online.
