    I got standing for Kilkenny (at 8:15) and Dublin (at 8:30).

    I do think the multiple venues have helped to spread around the demand.

    Front row upstairs (703 row A) in Cusack with vertigo warnings, but on 'view from my seat' it looks like a pretty good ticket.

    I think I was there for U2 in 2005. Perfectly fine.

    There will be a pit, get there early and you'll be fine.

    The two prices for pitch, are the more expensive ones the upper 1/3 of the pitch like some of last years venues?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,250 ✭✭✭✭AndyBoBandy


    Got through and could only get 3 tickets for pitch, and when I saw it was over 14's only I was out...

    I was already stretching it considering gig for a Sunday night, but felt the Boss would be an appropriate first gig for JuniorBoBandy and be worth it....

    Would seated tickets allow for a 9yo to go?

    4 Standing PUC, took almost an hour between getting kicked out on app and failed card transactions. Got there in the end anyway.

    Kilkenny sold out according to Aiken, Cork showing low availability on Ticketmaster

    Cork: seating was booked out at 8:50, standing no issue. Forgot to login earlier and only started at 8:40 at position 8500, done at 8:55 after some looking around for tickets and checking what the restricted view means.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,868 ✭✭✭Fanirish


    Cause we are an island with higher operational costs across the board and aiken actually don’t out on my many shows anymore.

    cork and Kilkenny now sold out btw



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 327 ✭✭Daisy03


    I got number 12k approx in Cork and when I got through at 8.30 ish I selected North and South stand as I wanted seating. It came up that there was nothing available so I took the standing tickets.

    I joined the queue again at that point and there were 10k in front of me. I got in and again selected North and South stand and nothing available. Then selected best available and 2 seats came up. Really strange why they wouldnt come up when I selected the stands.

    They might have been in someone's basket but it's frustrating when when happens alright



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23 Daria321


    i bought 2 pitch for the 136 price but when i looked just now ticketmaster are offering two pitch for the 96e price? whats the difference there?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,110 ✭✭✭I see sheep


    I think the cheaper pitch tickets are for a wheelchair accessible area?

    Checking now, Cork still has handful seating and standing available.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭Jaffa3000


    There isn't, its a Ticketmaster glitch when you press "pitch" it'll highlight 2 price points but there's only 1 in reality



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,573 ✭✭✭✭shmeee


    The radio advert had tickets starting at €96, so these tickets never even existed? Awful shower.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,868 ✭✭✭Fanirish


    €96 was some sections of davin stand from ticketmaster selection earlier

    Only a handful. The Davin Stand tickets left are still €153.80 inc fees.

    Which is absolutely bananas.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭Jaffa3000


    I'm talking about Ticketmaster making it look like there's two different pitch options when there isn't. As others said there were tickets for that price but seating not standing



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,464 ✭✭✭✭Exclamation Marc


    Anyone sat in Section 733 for a gig before? Looks decent on AViewFromMySeat but would be good if anyone had any experience sitting there or near there?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,904 ✭✭✭✭The Nal


    Its either a mistake or they did it deliberately to lure people into the ticket buying page for them to panic buy more expensive tickets.

    Works every time.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 99 ✭✭Fatnacho


    Got 2 together in the Davin for €96 each at 8.35. Just had to refresh a few times. It’s right up at the back so will need to bring the binoculars.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭Jaffa3000


    I mean they don't seem too bothered about fixing it because its been happening for months now, I remember people noticing it with Muse tickets



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,337 ✭✭✭TheRiverman


    Just going to one show, got two standing for my first choice venue, Kilkenny. Very happy with that 🤗.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,752 ✭✭✭✭MisterAnarchy


    Crazy prices.

    Back of Davin stand must be 160-170 yards from the stage, youd be better off watching it on Youtube.

    He will have no luck for his greed Bruce.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,085 ✭✭✭flasher0030


    Or you could keep an eye out for empty seats around the stand closer to the stage. I don't know the capacity for the gig (say 80,000), there will be a certain amount of people who won't turn up on the night for various reasons - sick, last minute work, drunk in the pub etc.

    I have done this a few times. Didn't have any issues. If someone does come along whose seat it is, I just move to a different seat.

    Ticketmaster say my tickets won't be available until at least three days before the start of the gig. I got tickets for Sting last week and had them straight away. Bit annoying.
