Prima Facie sold out in about four minutes. I know it was the Gaiety but I was surprised with no queue or waiting room.
Nostalgia was better back in my day
Nostalgia has gone too far
Papa Roach November 3rd
Go Woke, Go Broke………….. as the Trumpers would say.
Maybe it's a co tour with Papa Roach
On the latter just wish they'd announce the Irish show. Registered on Friday but still haven't received confirmation email
Need some money after bailing on that MAGA event they do
Shinedown again teasing the European dates, wonder will be getting them this week
Utterly tremendous 😂
So you're saying she's going without you?
1 standing ticket for Sleaford Mods put up for sale there on Ticketbastard if anyone’s interested, Mrs. is pregnant and doesn’t want to listen to shouty man for 90 minutes.
Showaddywaddy are on their way back! Just one of the original line-up (drummer Romeo Challenger) but they do put on a great show!

Reminds me of the time Ottowan did one of those retro festivals! They started with DISCO and followed it up with Hands Up! Then a remix of DISCO for the encore.
The Papa Roach thing is a bit odd
Announced but not Announced, as someone mentioned maybe waiting for Shinedown or something
Registered but didn't receive any email or code
Another man on his PR tour of trying to re-enter the Irish Zeitgeist.... Had a chuckle when I saw it pop up
Yea, as stillill42 said about 3 songs each...was like a slower Eurovision with the stage changes....near constant movement and then either someone doing poetry or comedy (or in the case of Rachel Galvo...attempted comedy) between acts.
Was a shame that a good few acts like Van Morrisson didnt play their most well know songs, but overall for under €70, was a fantastic night of music...really didnt expect it to end so late though
No, 3 songs each more or less, a bit chaotic with the manic set up changes between each act, comedians doing their 10 minutes while that was happening but great atmosphere throughout. The Frames act of the night for me but really enjoyable throughout.
I saw a few comedians like Tommy Tiernan were added too. With so many artists did they all of much of a set? Guess if it was for 5 hours they probably did but just curious. Good chance to see so many artists on the 1 line up in fairness!
The Hotlress gig last night ended up being really good…was like a mini festival inside the 3 Arena, started at 19:00 and ended at 00:15. (I thought The 3Arena are supposed to have a curfew?)
Lots of people like Van Morrisson, Imelda May, Boomtown rats etc. that, whilst good I wouldnt pay €60 - €100 to see a standalone gig.
Fair play to Hotpress for putting it all together...surprised with that lineup it didnt sell out quickly
Was thinking the same, maybe SD and PaPa Roach with a strong undercard for the 3Arena but my guess it will be Papa Roach in either Olympia or National Stadium
As would less gatekeeping. Particularly inaccurately.
Maybe a sparring partner for Shinedown to get in there??
Yeah it's still a big if, if it's official. I think if there's not an announcement by early next month it's fairly unlikely to be going ahead. Time will tell I guess.
Papa Roach with Rise Against as support similar to the Rise of the Roach US tour would sell well here, maybe 3Arena with the upper tiers curtained off.
That would be a real shame. Iggy was just a bonus. The undercard has been fantastic both years. It's a great day out I would hate to see it die or just as bad become too popular.
Gutted,
I was not expecting him to be in Europe again this year, so did Dublin & Berlin last year, he was in great form for both, but lets be honest, how many tours has he left in him. He is 81 next November, but you wouldn’t think it at last summers gigs.
Edit: Mistaken reply
Sure Keifer Sutherland is playing the ambassador in May this year as well
I dont think it was selling well.
It's not official, as we discussed earlier he has a penchant for talking out of his hole, it is only official when it is official otherwise is a probable guess.
Grand but perhaps if you could all take your petty and endless griping elsewhere rather than clogging up the thread with neverending 'gotchas', that too would be appreciated.
