    nope, the stage is tiny, capacity for the academy is only 850, so imagine an average sized nightclub's stage and you'll get the idea.

    I've been there twice and it's a great little venue

    I've heard that only 200 or so went on general sale, the rest was to record company peeps, comp winners and fan club.

    It says on the Tickets Kiss Plus Special Guests.

    I heard a rumor that there is only going to be local support not any big name support for Dublin.

    So i would not call a local band Special Guests lol

    Im hoping for Buckcherry.

    Local Bands = Gick.

    No offense to Local bands who actually play music that Kiss Fans may appreciate, but when a Irish Promoter says "Local Band" we get some bunch of Ghey wimps like the Coronas or Director, or a band that begins with "THE".
    If this happens a similar situation like that at Aerosmith may occur.

    Considering the ticket price , €50, and the size of the production ... expect a "local" band. There's no way there'll be funding for a "recognised name" as support (unless their Record Company pick up the tab).

    Similar to Paddy Casey supporting Pearl Jam a few years back, he went down really really well :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    It depends on what sort of a set they decide on, if it's gonna have a lot of the new album on it then probably slim, but it's definitely been played in shows over the last year.......would be nice to get a bit of variation in the set......but I'm just happy I'm gonna get to see them here indoors :D

    with regards to support acts - it's March and they are announcing different support acts for different gigs, so hopefully someone will be doing the UK shows and they'll bring them over........if it's a decision left to the Promoters I'll be at the bar....

    According to Paul Stanley They are deff going to play the following on the tour

    Crazy Crazy Nights
    God Gave Rock N Roll To You II
    Modern Day Deliah
    Say Yeah
    Im An Animal

    Probly will also play Love Gun (Where he flys over the Crowd lol. Dont think the o2 is build for that lol) ,Detroit Rock City, Lick It Up, Rock And Roll All Nite and Maybe I Was Made For Loving You.

    This is the first time ever Kiss will play in Dublin. 1996 Dublin Gig was Canceled and They played Belfast in 1988 so never played a gig in Dublin

    anyone slightly concerned they may cancel this? standing tickets are still plentiful and decent seating is still available. apparently they cancelled in '96 due to poor ticket sales. I'd be majorly dissapointed if they did. I think they probably could have done with dropping the price by a tenner

    Will probly only be around 2000 at the gig. So if u have seated tickets you could probly sit anywhere lol.

    Just wondering will the o2 be the same layout as the picture below or will the lower section of seats be gone.

    Man, 2000 X €50 = €100,000 .... €100,000 would not fund this gig ...MCD would be at a loss ... if only 2000 tickets are sold I can see it being cancelled big time.

    Wonder how many tickets Skynyrd have sold for tonights show in the O2 ?

    It would already have been pulled if they hadn't sold a certain amount of tickets by now - at least I wouldn't see any reason for them to proceed unless they thought it was going to do decent business......

    Why do you think there would only be 2000 at this PTH ?
    to be honest I think I already know more people that are going to this than had bought tickets in '96.......I'm hoping it's gonna be a really good turnout.....

    I couldn't see any gig going ahead at the O2 with ticket sales of 2000. Even for a fully seated concert there that's less than a quarter capacity.
