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)
Wouldn't be a very smart bet even if it is likely. Cant make sweeping statements like that and not have proper sources to back it up. Fanirish can do that, but they clearly have industry knowledge.
The new Coldplay dates are most likely the rescheduled ones for LA. Id be shocked if they include Croke Park. Literally no reason why they wouldnt have included them on their original European tour announcement. These tours are planned well in advance. The GAA would have known and been able to give a timetable for any act well ahead so they could include it on their original announcement. Id put the house on them not playing.
Pretty decent chance of Coldplay to come in August alright, youd imagine it would be announced by now though.
Madonna wouldn’t sell out Croke. Coldplay are probably on about Australian dates.
Beyoncé is rumoured to announce around early Feb, but her rumoured Europe dates are May and June so it won’t be Croke if she comes.
I don’t think anyone will play Croke this year. I don’t see why Coldplay wouldn’t have announced with the other Europe dates. They could’ve sold 3 nights out easily.
Well she headlined one of the Slane gigs.
Interesting
Would Madonna doing a gig here be 'BIG' ?
There's an announcement coming tomorrow. Someone big apparently. I just saw it on Reddit though so could be nothing
Indeed, i remember that ! Coldplay remain a realistic possibility, as is Beyonce !
2023 match day fixtures for Croke Park
Plenty of room on the calendar from August
They’re announcing a rose bowl gig
It sure they’d add any more europe dates alongside US ones
Careful with this. The last time I gave reasons why they can still play here, explaining the 3- week gap, croker not announced yet, no gigs in july, examples of other bands announcing additional gigs in the past, blah blah blah...
I was accused of speaking through my h0le
Prices in Spain
Ireland the smallest market in Europe, you must be joking.
The 3Arena is/was one of the busiest arenas in Europe for the last decade.
If its an all seated gig the 10k capacity would probably be too low for her money demands.
Last Dublin show didn’t sell out, a lot of walk outs as it wasn’t a greatest hits show.
Not the most extensive tour so as Ireland smallest market in europe makes sense not to do show here.
also ticket price might of been a gamble. Expect it will be wrong side of £100 for terrible seats in London
Shes playing venues of similar size to the Point.
Madonna just announced a World Tour, no Irish date as of yet. Wonder what the chances of her coming here are?
Anyone know the story with the acts for Pillow Queens Paddy's Day gig? 12 acts due due play but just over 2 months out no announcement yet. Thought there might be word by 4-6 weeks out at the latest so hopefully be announced soon.
Pallative care is basically pain management in the final days, I don't think he's coming back from this.
Palliative care is a term that nots thrown around loosely. Aslan stated that all future shows are cancelled.
Very sad alright...hopefully it isn't as bad as being reported and that he can make a full recovery and get out gigging.....
Perhaps
Wouldnt surprise me if they added Dublin and Wembley in August
When he played in 2016 he was sub headliner to LCD on the Saturday, he’s a sub and always has been a sub.
I'm a huge NGHFBs fan. Seen him/them 3 times but Noel doesn't play a whole lot of Oasis in his sets. Any Oasis fan going and expecting to hear a load of Oasis anthems will be disappointed.
I think subbing for The Killers would make a pretty spectacular Sunday night, no point having them separate because there'll be a big overlap in fans
no way is Noel g not in the same category as Billie eillish, Lewis capaldi and the killers who were announced as the respective de facto headline act for each night. Noel did st Anne’s last summer. The others are just another level more popular than Noel.
Noel G is def a festival like electric picnic headliner, he has a huge back catalogue both oasis, solo and high flying birds - and - this is the significant part - huge fan base
He could potentially be headlining the second stage; the one Fontaine's headlined last year. That was about the same size as St Anne's?
There’s a saying
if u2 and aslan were playing beside each other in neighbouring venues - all the Irish would be in the Aslan gig then go over to the u2 gig and beat the sh1te out of everyone!!
All fair enough but he sub headlined Glastonbury last year (biggest festival in the world) and there's no way Noel should be below Lewis Capaldi on any bill. Lack of any significant new material didn't help last year too.
Chemical Brothers and Snow Patrol were headliners in 2020 but I dont think either would get close to selling Marlay Park
As soon as they announced the show I figured it'd be his swan song, he knew he was on borrowed time. The family announcing it means we're close to the end, still wouldn't surprise me if the crazy bastard got wheeled out to the garden to sing a few songs.
