Well hello
They're on way earlier than published time! I gotta run!
What time are ACDC on stage at? MCD said shows starts at 7 could they be more vague
I bet t -shirts are going for 50 yoyos a pop?
yep €50 for t-shirts, a jersey for €100 and a jacket for €175 😮 The hoodie was at the other side of me so didn't see that price. I think baseball caps were €35.
Looking at the last gig in France, Pretty Reckless were on at 7.15pm and AC/DC at 8.15pm, so I would assume 7.30 - 7.45 for Croker as Pretty Reckless came on around 6.30pm.
FFS
For those still not at the stadium, the Pretty Reckless set is now finished. Stage is being readied for AC/DC.
Pretty Reckless put out a tweet earlier today saying they'd be on stage at 6:30pm. No idea why every communication from Ticketmaster today has been a 7pm start.
Are you ready for a good time?
€175 for this view. Luckily I only paid €50 for the ticket. Ticketmaster are robbing b@stards.
**** that. Move to an empty seat further up on your right. You won't see a **** thing.
thats the plan!
It’s a shambles here. Two tiny bars for people in golden circle. AC/DC I’m hearing 8:30 start.
Saw the merch ques and turned around, **** it rather pay the extra to get it online
Great seats for me
holy fück… you go to a gig both to see and hear a band, that just is pure awful. Not sure Ticketmaster are your target, the promoter certainly would be.
Yes its MCD.
Those seats are restricted view, you cannot charge full price for that.
Hate those old cow shed stages, with no side view.
I've noticed Irish promoters seem to think they can sell restricted view seats for full price, cowboys.
Holy f*cking sh*t.
I thought AC/DC Punchestown 2009 was the greatest gig ever in this country - I was wrong.
Aviva 2014 was a disappointment - tonite surpassed both by miles.
Angus and Brian brought us to the veil between this world and the next from whence all great rock songs are conceived.
No further comment needed, you were either there or you weren't.
F*cking unreal from start to finish.

Punchestown was actually miles off the Point gig the same year. The Point was their first Irish gig for 13 years or so and the place was electric.
That was the time to see them, not now when they are a shadow of themselves and the majority of them gone or dead.
Best €180 I've ever spent, fúcking awesome. I never got to see them in their prime but if that's what they're like at this age I can only imagine what it would have been like.
Thought tonight was AMAZING!!!! I really enjoyed myself, great setlist and a great fellow solo gig goer was seated next to me so had a great chat before the gig and between songs. I will definitely remember this show!
Exact same here! First time seeing them and was definitely worth the €180, Aircoach and hotel for what I got!
I was above you wolfy, a lot above ☁️. As well thankfully only paid 60 as it definitely should have been called restricted view!
Great set list, preferred when I last saw them in punchestown but maybe can't compare 15 years apart! Very enjoyable gig all the same for most likely the last time I'll see them
Are “venues” still taking a whopper commission from bands in Ireland?
That was class. Thought the band were amazing, Brian and Angus still got it.
On the flip side thought the crowd were dreadful, was in the gold circle and felt like the BBC proms, the band deserved better.
Got one off anto outside - e15 , print front n back. Fuc@ it , ac/dc made enough outta me on tickets!
What do you expect - the average age of the crowd is closer to a free bus pass then a mosh pit. It was like a big country wedding 🤣
Thought ACDC were superb anyway - played well above my expectations anyway. Special mention to the lad on facebook who sent me a free premium ticket at 7pm!
Awesome, thought Brian Johnson sounded particularly excellent
I thought the atmosphere in the golden circle was great. Nobody talking, but even if they were you wouldnt hear them. Everyone around me was bouncing all night long.
Really enjoyed that. Brian had issues with his earpiece all night but it didnt stop him.
Think I’m the only one who enjoyed Aviva more than Punchestown, but the weather and being really really really far back at Punchestown might explain it.
Great gig. Band are obviously a shadow of their former selves but Christ if they are like this as geriatrics, how amazing they must have been back in the day!
