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.
I have two free tickets for Stuart Murdoch tonight in Merrion Square - if you’d like them just send me a PM with your email address and I’ll forward them over
forbidden fruit didn’t exactly sell out instantly when she headlined in 2022.
Wolfe Alice - 3Arena Dec 10th
Yeah could be but nothing announced yet for those dates
It's great for the smaller venues here that they're playing the small gigs next week
Were great at EP a few years ago was hoping they would be back but not happening now. Remember seeing them in 2014 and thinking they had a chance, they have done alright. Very good live.
Curious as to what you mean. Your post is kinda cryptic. I liked them and saw them a couple of times, and while I think they are good, there's something a bit meat and potatoes about them.
That’s a big venue to fill for them but will definitely be picking up a ticket for this
If I recall correctly, last time they sold out 2 nights at the Olympia.
Maybe upper tier closed?
New song is quite interesting, like 3 songs packaged for the price of 1
It is odd.
The first 70 seconds is terrible, then the chorus comes and its brilliant.
Then back to crap but the last minute and a half is good too.
The less said about the video the better.
Re Patti Smith in the 3arena If it says 14+ only, I'm assuming that means anyone aged 14 and over can attend
would that be correct?
anyone can attend, though under 14’s can’t be in standing standing and all under 16’s need to be accompanied by an adult .
Okay grandpa, the video is grand nothing groundbreaking but they obviously had fun with it
Lottery Winners playing Grand Social 29 Nov :)
I'm delighted, a Saturday night is a bonus!
Not typically gig/events related but wonder who'll be Foo Fighters new drummer after Josh Freese was let go. Guessing they'll be back on tour next year
Seems very bizarre at first glance. They're playing some F1 race in Singapore so likely know before then.
Everyone thinking it'll be Shane Hawkins (Taylors son) on the reddit. Hopefully they play here next summer
OK, thanks, Just to be clear re standing you've mentioned under 14's can't be there and that it's over 14s, is somebody who is exactly 14 - can they be in standing?
yeah, strictly over 14’s means 14 and above
Ash in the Academy on 11 December
EdEdit: good few irish shows in December
Divine Comedy announced a UK and shortly after a European tour. No sign of any Irish dates, anyone know if some are in the pipeline please?
They said they would do Ireland next year when they first announced uk dates
First round of acts for Sounds From A Safe Harbour being announced tomorrow. Some acts already listed on some venue sites so guessing some or all will feature in 1st announcement
Has anyone heard anything about Homebeat putting on gigs in IMMA in July as part of their Continuous Patterns gigs? I'm guessing probably not as they weren't on last year and would probably have announced for this year already if they were happening. Would be a pity as they put on some cool gigs and venue and location were good.
Conan, Grand Social, Sunday 30th November: https://www.dme-promotions.com/all-events/conan-tickets-ae832687 For those into the heavy side of things.
I see Little Simz announced a few dates but none yet here, hope she plays here - yet to see her but think she's brilliant
Will go to a couple of these. Some of my fave venues in the country and the rest are top of my must-visit list. @Stillill42 a chance to check out those venues beyond the Pale? They're properly criss-crossing the country too, Kerry-Louth-Galway-Cork, etc. I'd be in my element following them on the entire tour, a band I'd happily go to see every month.
Twice informed here, categorically, that this gig was a big over-reach and FJM couldn't sell 1,200 tickets in Galway. More than three months to go and he's done okay. The audience is there, what's needed is a year-round bigger venue.
Don't think this is part of the tour where they play the first 2 albums but at only £21 a ticket (including fees) it's worth checking out!
