Camping out 2 nights is madness and that's coming from someone who lives in a garth brooks mad family and has the responsibility of getting 8 tickets ( a friend is camping with me). I do hope they leave the 1st set of doors in the Letterkenny shopping centre open so can have some kind of heat as I que

I reckon it doesn't matter how much layers and waterproof clothing you have, not to mention toilet breaks. The night before would be reasonable enough but two days in advance is crazy. You're setting something and dragging other fans in to queuing too early when the night before should be ok. Not to mention other fans may not have the help of a family member or friends to help them when queuing. Queuing two days in advance, it might be considered an obstruction and if a garda came along they might view it as such too and ask you to move along. Common sense would tell you that much at least. A homeless person sleeping on the streets wouldn't be in the same spot for two days straight. They'd die.

I plan on going to the concert and will stroll down to my local ticketmaster at 9am or just get them online. Guaranteed 2 dates and if he does sell out fast, a Sunday will likely be added so there will be plenty of tickets.

HardLuckWoman wrote: » You say outlets can buy tickets faster. This is good if you're first in queue. Another post mentioned that outlets might start printing in batches to meet the demand. Would they start printing seated tickets, or standing? And you take what you get. How does it all work.

Within five mins of the announcement of when tickets are on sale I was asked to get at least 20 tickets for other people as my FRIENDS all knew without a shadow of a doubt I would be queuing! I will be queuing with 4 of my immediate friends and I will be buying 12 tickets if allowed, 6 for each night. And they will be doing the same. We are buying for friends who are working, family members who are minding our kids whilst we queue etc. there are already 4 coaches booked to go up on the thurs by our gang. We are all going both nights, and will go a third if it is announced.We booked our hotels within two mins of getting our news letter emails. And if 20 of us are willing to stay out on the street for 48 hours if needs be nobody has the right to give out if we buy every ticket we are allowed to if we are actually using them which we are!! RANT OVER!
