Bruce Springsteen gig

grainuaile

Hi
We're travelling to Cork for the Brucie gig next week & like a pair of eejits have not organised accommodation, and (as you'd expect) the hotels seem to be booked up. I haven't been to Cork before, whats the public transport like down there? Are there towns outside/on the outskirts of the city which we could get a reasonably priced taxi or a bus to late at night? Or any suggestions of hotels with availability on 18th July?

I believe Ontap.ie are doing the bars or at least some of them in the venue.

Just to clarify...i have a ticket. I just dont want to head into the actual stadium itself. I was enquiring about drinks "outside" the stadium but inside the security ring so to speak and it sounds like there are as milly says...cool.

NO SUPPORT ACT am not impressed they got IMELDA MAY at kilkenny show

Bruce never has a support act. Imelda May is there in kilkeny and Josh Ritter, glen Hansard etc as that's a festival weekend. Have seen Bruce loads and he doesn't have support as he comes on himself at the time support acts usually do. You are getting more Bruce for your money. Imelda has her own concerts of you want to see her.

I've heard so many rumours about where he's staying - I heard that he wasn't even staying in Cork but was staying in the one place the whole time (in Limerick I think I heard).

Is this definite that he's staying in Castlemartyr?

Some bloke on acoustic guitar came on playing support at 6pm in Limerick last night - did a few songs - Bruce Springsteen or something I believe his name was.

It would make sense - big show-jumping part of the world.

Queue has started already. I passed by about an hour ago and there was maybe 15 or 20 people already in line.

It's the queue for the pit.

There was at least 200 at 1pm. There are scheduled roll calls so most only turn back up when they have to. The 15-20 are prob waiting to get a number at the next roll call. Over 250 I would say already.

Any good parking places recommended?

Would it be worth chancing my arm heading down tomorrow trying to get a standing ticket?
