No issues with the Croke Park sound or the views on the night. We were high up in the Davin Stand but still good seats. Traffic getting out was a bit mental. We were heading north for the M1. If you have a way of trying to avoid getting on to the M1 from the Croke Park area use it, took us ages to get back out, eventually coming out by Beamiunt hospital.

There really is something about that band… I have literally hated that viva la vida song since it was released 15 years ago or whatever, but live it is incredible! One of the very few acts that can get the entire stadiium rocking. I wouldn't be their biggest fan, but that show is brilliant. Great to have it at the end of August so we get the full light show, spectacular!

They really are the most commercially driven group since U2 - very obvious and cynical play into the various religion markets with "We Pray", one of the worst songs I've ever heard - and we got the extended version🤣

They did, but people still recorded anyway anyway. I actually was recording it in my pocket to take out to record during the song, but I must have accidentally hit stop recording when I did that as I only have the pocket recording… loads of fireworks and all

A mate of mine just told me , His sister went into her TM account just to make sure her 4 tix for Sunday were there.

They were gone.

She contacted TM , they told her that her account has 'resold' 163 tickets !!!!.

Her tix are gone…. TM will reimburse her , but she has no tickets for Sundays gig !!

ffs…

What a great show last night, granted the eco stuff at the start is a bit OTT but the light show and the energy of the band is pretty spectacular.

I have to say though the phones at gigs thing is mental. Fella close to me spent most of the night broadcasting the show on a video call to somebody at home. When CM asked people to put away their phones loads of them kept recording but sneakily as if he was going to give out to them 😂

We were in section 336 lower and a lot of the lasers couldn't be fully appreciated as we couldn't see the full effect.

I wasn't drinking so can't comment on prices etc but the queues for the bars were mental. Also the queue for merchandise was very long but they got through it quick enough.

Other than that a top class gig.

Was up in that section at one stage last night and the view was fine

3 girls in front of me watched whole gig through their phones. Paying fortunes for tickets to do that, I’ll never ever get it?

The nature and the enormity of the show with screens etc means there are no bad seats in my opinion?

i was in this section last night and the view was excellent,I luckily was in row b so basically front row seats
