Cheers for the heads up! Very cool of you to post this info.

The MCD site says the tickets will be on sale on the 7th of december not the 2nd as NME are saying...

Man the point is the worst venue in Dublin.
Its almost putting me off going to see them.

They're much suited to a smaller venue, I remember seeing them in Temple Bar music centre with the Moldy Peaches all them years ago....

So is it the 2nd or the 7th that they'll be on sale?

magpie

The point SUXX - has all the accoustics of a barn.

Why, oh why did I miss them in the TBMC and the Olympia?

honru

I dunno, I only seen 'em at Oxegen but I thought they suited the big stage very well. Arena should be no different.

Won't be able to see them this time though. :v:

Must be very likely that that will sell out quick and they'll add a second date.

Ticket master says this-

"The Strokes have confirmed that they will perform in the Point, Dublin on 20 January 2006. Tickets go on sale Friday 2 December at
09:00." this in new events section however if you search for the storkes the show in the point doesn't come up.....

MCD say tickets on sale on the 7th.....

It hardly matters the tickets won't sell out for ages, i'll probably check in ticketmaste in stevens green tomorrow

^CwAzY^

This is gonna rock :v:

Strokes = one of the best live acts around
The Point = THE single worst venue in the world.

are you joking? they will sell out very fast, tickets are only €33.20! I bought up 10 last time they played the olympia, I had loads of people and foafs after them. they were selling for €150 outside the olympia.

How long dyaz think it will take for them to sell out ?

Creamy Goodness

I doubt this will sell out.

My thoughts exactly

I bought up 10 last time they played the olympia

So its thanks to c unts like you that fans like me didn't get to see the show. Can we ban this fu ckwit under the present anti-touting legislation on boards?

fu ck you kunt, I am not a tout, there were all for mates, arsehole...
I even started a guide on dealing with touts here before

I got mine this morning, had lot of trouble with the c/c and it seemed like there was lots of delays, likely due to orders.

Using your insider knowledge no doubt - anyone who buys 10 tickets, then finds 'buyers' for them afterwards is a tout. Have a nice day touty.

comet

I'm hoping it sells out so that they add saturday night....

I could actually see them adding an extra Ambassador/Olympia show for Saturday moreso than a second Point date.

comet

well that'd be good, seems like they've sold out their 2 nights in both Manchester and London.

I don't know if you are a bit simple or just have just made up your own story from the few words I said before. I didnt "find any buyers afterwards", I bought 10 after we decided we were all going. I asked around as I was going into sound cellar to avoid the online fees. Then I had lots of foafs looking for them too since they sold out so quick, as I had 10 they thought maybe some would pull out.
Touts were selling for €150 outside.

anyways, does anybody know if their sat night is free?

magpie

Presumably a saturday date would devalue the 250 tickets you've bought for 'mates' rubadub?

Wishful thinking TBH

and you are asking for me to be banned!, you're some gobshlte. this is the second time this week some fool has read a post of mine, then made up their own little story in their meagre minds and then call me a liar, like the other fool you have probably re-read the post but refuse to admit that you could possibly have picked me up wrongly.

I know all about the touting rules here, I hate them and have written tips on how to screw over touts. Do you really think I would come on shouting about being a tout even if I was? knowing how they are viewed here?

heres the link if anybody is interested.

Just got my ticket in sound cellar, I saw an ad in the Irish independent today saying the tickets would be on sale next wednesday....It would be ****ed up if anyone queued next wednesday morning since they are already on sale.

magpie

If your 'mates' were big enough fans they could've bought their own tickets - its people like you block-buying tickets that prevents fans from getting their hands on a single measly ticket for show like the Olympia one.

So, presumably, if one of your 10 mates hadn't been able to go, and the many many foafs hadn't been able to make it, you would've given away your last ticket at face value to a fan rather than flogging it for €150 to a tout outside? :rolleyes:
