    Ah now lads. Since Frightened Rabbit sold out the Academy themselves already recently, what do you think they plus Modest Mouse were going to do?

    I think pretty much every time a gig sells out there's always people who say the same thing. Thing is people don't know the capacity of the venues. Academy main room can hold 650 people and 200 in the balcony. So that's 850 tickets per night which is nothing really when you think of the amount of music fans in Dublin alone.

    So has anyone posted the other mainstay of this forum and given out in advance about how all the other members of the crowd will not be as big a fan as he/she and will only be there for Float On? :D

    Hey Gugai, is the gig on in the big ballroom in the Radisson. I went to see Richard Hawley there last year and the sound was brutal. Its like a big shed.

    Got two tickets anyhow.

    I spoke to the events manager yesterday and he said it is the ballroom. I haven't been there so I questioned him how good a venue it is and he was all praise, obviously. He said it has been redesigned as a concert venue and that they are targeting the market in a big way. I hope this means that the place has improved since you were there...

    I now have 4 Galway tickets and 4 Dublin tickets. I will probably sell the Dublin ones now as a Monday is a disaster for a non-pale dweller:) Academy is great place so pity I won't be going, really hope the radission isn't a let down. magine how good it would have been in the Roisin Dubh:eek:

    Ahh, it would have been deadly in Roisins alright.

    When i was there last the light fittings in the roof were rattling with the bass and the sound got a bit lost in general. Could have been down to poor sound engineering too, but i've seen Hawley a few times before and his sound had always been excellent.

    the galway venue better be up to scratch, monday night in dublin is a pain in the ar$e. I got 4 for both, saturday night in the west seems a lot handier, should not be too much trouble off loading the dublin tickets;)

    Ya we got their about 10 mins late and i expected to be miles at the back, but i could easily walk 2/3's of the way in without putting anyone out. FR came down into the crowd to play a song or two as well

    Settled on getting tickets for Galway, Saturday night beats a Monday/Tuesday in Dublin and having to take time off work.

    I panic bought the Monday night tickets the second they went on sale to be sure (based in Dublin so no biggie). Would nearly rather the night in Galway now though!

    Has the Galway show sold out yet?

    Nah I got mine today through http://www.Roisindubh.net cause it's cheaper than TM. Not sure how big the Radisson is for gigs but it's obviously bigger than RD.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,890 ✭✭✭glanman


    1,100 people according to the radission event manager.

    No, it's not in the ballroom, it's in the venue downstairs.

    I think they have a certain amount allocated for online sale. There might still be a few available over the counter.
