    Does anyone know any central ticketmaster locations that will definitely be open for tickets in time for this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 558 ✭✭✭TakeTheVeil


    God dammit! Why didnt this work earlier on?

    Feel swindled!

    Even if they add a second gig, do anyone/everyone reckon they will both sell out (in your best educated guesses)?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,355 ✭✭✭cruhoortwunk

    A few minutes, probably. It looks like all standing tickets are gone.

    Second date released
    Standing and half the circle are gone for this.I'm Surprised that the upper circle is also unavailable

    Ive never seen that before, I wonder will they be released closer to the gig to help make the touts job a little bit harder.

    I have 4 seating tickets for foals on Feb 4th 2013 but looking to swap them for standing, straight swap, if anyone is interested.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,200 ✭✭✭hots


    If anyone missed out on this I have 2 Upper Circle sitting tickets for the first day spare now. Managed to get standing for the second night in the end :)

    So who's going? Can't believe this thread has been buried for months.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,351 ✭✭✭NegativeCreep


    Going and can't wait. Just as excited to see Cage The Elephant as Foals :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,200 ✭✭✭hots


    Going on Wednesday (Standing), can't wait!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,272 ✭✭✭Barna77


    Going on Tuesday !
    Saw them in the Academy last year. Can't wait.

    Going Tuesday (Standing). Anyone know if the Olympia are a rip off for pints like the 02?

    Going tomorrow night. Cant wait :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,582 ✭✭✭Irish_rat


    Cant wait for this, going to the Weds gig. Pit area definitely for this one. Hope they play Olympic Airways, wasn't on last nights setlist.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Delighted that Cage the Elephant are also playing... two gigs for the price of one in my eyes :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 791 ✭✭✭viv2


    More tickets released for both nights. Just incase anybody missed out ;)

    Jaysus the weather is horrific tonight, this gig better be worth it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 791 ✭✭✭viv2


    Worth it just to see cage the elephant. Bloody amazing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 113 ✭✭Soilse


    Bloody brilliant night, really mental.
    thought Id never get there in that weather arrived an hour later than planned due to the terrible weather.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,272 ✭✭✭Barna77


    Absolutely brilliant. Loved every minute of it. And those red lights were so cool.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Great sets from both of them and fantastic light show for Foals! They've come such a long way and grown into such a tight band, it's great to see.

    Would I be right in saying that the acoustics aren't quite the best in the Olympia? I was in slap bang in the middle about halfway back but sound seemed a bit thin at times. Vicar St by comparison is almost always perfect.

    If anyone is going tonight, the weather still looks to be terrible so try make some allowance for that so that you don't miss Cage the Elephant!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 419 ✭✭TJ Mackie


    Is there any particular reason they didn't play
    Cassius
    or
    Bad Habit
    ? Was looking forward to the former, not pushed about the latter. Bit odd is all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43 IntoYourSister


    What time were both acts on stage last night?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 419 ✭✭TJ Mackie


    What time were both acts on stage last night?

    Cage The Elephant - 8:15
    Foals - 9:15
