    I'm looking at buying two tickets for the 13th BLOCK N, M and J are available for sale. https://www.ticketmaster.ie/nick-cave-the-bad-seeds-the-dublin-13-11-2024/event/18006074A0055FA9 https://3arena.ie/plan-your-visit/find-a-seat Just wondering what the best section would be from the choice available, I was thinking M because, it is the closest to the middle L maybe I'm wrong though. I have never been to the venue before so I don't know. Judging From the pictures at the bottom of the page of the 3 arena website on the membership section the venue looks huge I found a website on my phone showing pictures of the balcony view but, I forget what the site was called. I seen there is a membership on the 3 arena website for the premium club and the 1878. I was wondering is this membership only or is the bar open to the public when attending a show ? Do you get searched on the way in ? like could ye smuggle in a naggin ? lol

    1878 club is €15,000 a year and premium club is €3000 a year. Both membership only though members can give guest passes out. There is normal bar service in the venue from doors open. Yes you get searched/patted down by security so likely hood of getting drink is slim

    Jaysus that's an expensive club ! What would say is the best choice between BLOCK N, M and J

    You're right, M would generally be better than J or N as it's more central

    That's assuming the row numbers are similar. For example row 1 in N would be better than row 50 in M. But, in general, central would need nicer. There's not a massive difference though

    Have a quick look at

    Transfer seems to be available now.

    I got an email about 10 days ago to say that resale was available but it still doesn't seem to be.

    I have 2 standing for the Wednesday night up on toutless for €120 all in as I can't make it now. Paid 79 each but would give an additional boardsie discount and sell for €110 all in. Pm if interested.

    Had no idea this was on. And on my birthday too (12th).

    Can't believe I hadn't heard about this

    Whats the story with resale on this? Still doesn't seem to be an option to sell them on the app.

    I've two standing tickets for the 12th I need to get rid of. Very frustrating.

    For the recent Elvis Costello gig in Vicar St, there was no option to see at all, which was indeed very frustrating. Maybe it's a trend….

    Nick cave issued press release before tour saying resale would be eventually allowed for uk dates. No mention about Dublin.
    aiken don’t allow resale on most of their shows

    Try Toutless.ie (they had a freeze on new members, not sure if it's still in place)

    It doesn’t give you the option to sell but does allow you to transfer, so you could still flog it on Toutless.

    I have them up on Toutless alright but there are a hell of a lot of folks trying to move tickets on the Nick Cave thread (for as low as 100 for a pair of standing), would say it'll far outstrip demand.

    That was emailed, which is a bit unusual

    Often you'll see times on the day if you look at 3arena and MCD (if it's them) on twitter

    Well anyone that hasn't been tonight make sure you're there tomorrow.

    Second chances may be rarer in the future.

    I haven't seen them for 16yrs (😮) and he's turned into even more of a showman in that time. Not showy, just amazing with the crowd. Having a walkway along the crowd is such a simple thing, but it's so effective, he was probably holding someone's hand for half the gig!

    But that's just the icing that makes the gig wonderful, obviously it's the songs really. The new songs are just so good live, the band are so tight

    Loved the backing singers, they were wonderful. And Colin Greenwood! Didn't know he was touring with them

    For all the "discussion" there's been recently about whether big shows need big production, and around lip-synching etc, tonight is what music is about

    What did other people think of Black Country, New Road? I wanted to love them, and they were obviously talented but somehow it didn't click for me, don't know why. First thing I heard after they left the stage was the people behind me saying they were amazing though, maybe it was just me

    I knew it was going to be a good show when I saw the gospel/soul singers. Some pretty heavy rock sounds too. Another 1970's Elvis nod again maybe.
