Starting a thread for 2025 gigs as they'll likely start rolling in.
I'll arbitrarily throw in Rob Beckett playing the Olympia on the 26th September 2025 which went on sale today.
Is 2nd night Marlay a possibility for her? would shift the tickets by the sound of it
One of her managers said she could have done stadiums on the tour just finished.
I’m a small bit surprised they didn’t go for the Aviva but I suppose Marlay makes more sense as she is play festivals in fields not a stadium tour.
If they are gonna use it late summer I don't see why they don't use it more regularly year round. I know if they've a few gigs in a row logistically it makes sense
Second Dublin night for Ryan Adams, first one basically sold out, just a few scattered single seats in the stalls.
On sale Monday 9am.
No, I doubt it. If a gig is in demand, there is no reason for a seller to sell at lower than face value as they'll know they'll get their money back and they'll always try that first. People only tend to resell at lower prices if the gig isn't in demand or it's the day of the gig. And if it's not in demand and tickets are available, ticketmaster will want to shift their tickets first.
People tend to run to all sorts of nefarious conspiracies to explain why tickets are hard to come by. Bots, insider sales, holding back tickets, huge swathes of platinum tickets are the usual claims and whilst they may account for a tiny % of tickets, ultimately demand is the biggest reason tickets are hard to come by.
June/July is in the middle of GAA croke park silly season so would never work and she isn’t touring a stadium show yet. On her next album tour she will be deffo be touring stadiums across europe
for sure , she probably could have filled Croker by sounds of things .
I'm out of touch also but it seems she has done very well since going solo from playing with Gabriela :)
She's about to headline Glastonbury plus Hyde Park and has 49m monthly listeners on Spotify. Marlay is akin to an intimate warm-up for her.
I’m obviously out of touch but wasn’t expecting Olivia Roderigo to be as successful as she obviously is . Daughter is devo , had presale codes yesterday , general sale sold out in seconds , nada . Promoters must be thinking a swap of venues with robbie Williams would be a better idea , plenty of presales available for him.
yeah they are booking shows again for the RDS simmonscourt for same time as this year. Late august ish
Yea he's doing 3 nights in Toronto, 1 of the venues holds just over 2k and the other 2 nights are in a venue thanks about 2.7k per night.
They could use the rds like they did for pixies during the summer?
Is it the case (oft-rumoured here) of Ticketmaster buying the resale tickets at lower prices and flogging them to people at the standard prices? Thus lessening the availability of resale tickets. I'd expect exactly the same for Oasis as for Coldplay. I'm basing this on posts here rather than any knowledge but it makes sense.
Too big for him i’d say, he is playing a mixture of venues but some are relatively small like the Salt Shed Chicago about 5,000, i’d be guessing Olympia for him if he does come here, or at some festivals
I know ya was same with the Smile this year, it was curtained off but never seen the standing for the 3 so packed not sure what happened 😂😂
Yeah, worked on my phone. I think my job are trying to send me a message. Thanks
Too many gigs and not enough work the next day. 😴
working fine for me. Maybe try on a browser instead of app or vice versa
Can smell the 3 arena for it already, and the next bout of discussion as to whether dublin needs a c.5k venue
Anyone else trying to get Spiritualized tickets?
Keep getting a timed out message!
Saw Jack white announced quite an extensive US/Asia tour yesterday with dates in the EU/UK to follow,
Hopefully he does a show here not sure what would be the right venue for him though be class to see him in somewhere like the Olympia but who knows
I did say "nearly" every gig for that exact reason so it's hardly debunked...
Coldplay were certainly the exception this year. Even Taylor Swift had some resale tickets floating about as I knew a small number of people who got lucky albeit hers were available in much smaller quantities.
Nadine Shah was very upfront as to why she didn't play and done a great job of laying out all the reasons why it's not worth it for smaller artists trying to make money.
Extra d
ate for Primal Scream
Think that's 14 announced now so probably only a handful more to be announced. Seems to be starting a month later this year.
So maybe artists can work with one more than 1 promoter??? 👀👀🤔😂
Night and Day in Forest Park, Boyle June 2025
everyone favourite act Picture This playing marquee in cork in June
Lovely quiet affair.
did you get sorted? 3 presale seats were crap but artist presale had all seats available. There’s literally about 5 seats left in the entire place so id buy right now if you still haven’t . Presale link is on his site, code is SGLive
There's a significant break between the Paris gig and the Brooklyn gig, what's the chances of them putting an Ireland date between those two dates??
