David Gray closing the bar!

I will say there is something people saying it is "middle-aged muck savage" brigade that make/made these gigs horrendous.

I said I was at the White Ladder 3 Arena gig. There was a pair of couples behind us that were talking throughout the gig. At one stage one of the bloke (probably early 50s) starts shouting "Up Limerick. Up Limerick" FFS.

It isn't the drink that makes these gig goers inconsiderate arseholes it's the fact they're inconsiderate arseholes.

I went to one of the 3 Wolftones concerts last year too. I think I decided that night even if I was at gun point I don't think I'd ever be able to vote for SF.

"It isn't the drink that makes these gig goers inconsiderate arseholes it's the fact they're inconsiderate arseholes."

Nail on the head.

No. Did depeche mode as expected. No SOC.

I know people going tonight that mentioned the bar closure to me and my first thought was, these people will find a way to get locked. God help security.

I'm no angel myself and had a few during Peter Gabriel, but I left it to beforehand and the interval. I don't know why you'd go to the bother of seeing someone like David Gray in the Three Arena and be constantly getting up for a gargle while he's playing.

What a bizarre development. David Gray gigs go punk. They'll be spitting at him next, throwing wheelchairs onstage. Quite exciting, watching the whole thing pan out.

herself is there with a few friends, will get the low down shortly. Pretty sure you could be describing any gig/anytime/anywhere there. Half cut and passing around drink? We’re in sodom and gomorrah territory here folks!!

David Gray full house 3 Arena . Bar closed but people got their drinks in beforehand …some well beforehand.

He did all the classics some new stuff . Did Say Hello Wave Goodbye , at length tonight and The Old Main Drag and many more ..Depeche Mode yes , but it was awful .

Good concert , beautiful singing and playing , A bit slow for me but enjoyed it .

But maaan , some of the crowd were rough and despite being fans ie belting out the choruses of the popular hits , and singing Ole David , yes ...talked all the way through , and were falling in and out to the loo frequently , ffs .

That's the trouble with a seated concert ..if you are unlucky with who is seated around you you are stuck with it .

Maybe I'm just narky because I only had two drinks before the gig and no white nose powder as per another post above 😂

Jeez are people not able to sit down for 2.5 hours to listen to a musician without some medicinals ?

No excuse for obnoxious bullies at concerts but ...

the people who are not drugged or drunk and who talk incessantly during songs really take the biscuit. I think they should have special pretend concerts for people like that. Or maybe a special room at the venue.

Reminds me of

Similar overall for me.

First gig in Dublin for about 10 years. We were sat up the back pretty central. Lucky with the people either side and in front of us but a group of four or five loud enough Dubs behind us, but they seemed to quieten down as it went on.

Saw one lad when we were going in, off his absolute tits. Eyes gone and wobbling walk. Bizarre stuff. Saw a young enough couple then come in as David was about to start with four drinks each!!

One of the things that amused me the most was the attire. Saw a cupla very smartly dressed chaps in suits and then the Anto and Deco in their Nike short suits.

The gig itself was excellent. David Gray was great, voice amazing, band were bang on it. I think he seemed to enjoy the gig too, maybe a cathartic type thing given how the first gig went.

Brilliant ! And just pipe the music in the background to them with ready made videos of the hits to download so they don't have to.interript their catch up 😂

Wow. That's a strange and probably uninformed/ignorant comment. Been a long time since Christy was drinking. His heyday is continuing.

I really liked Gold in a Brass Age.

Streets of london!!!

Actually hilariously Roger daltry relived that sketch recently
