MOD:
Dear Everyone.

Ticket swapping, selling, buying or trading are not permitted in the forum and that covers implied sales too.

Anyone trying to shift tickets on the forum will be banned.

Telling us something like "I have 10 tickets and I hope I'll be able to use them all" or similar ruses is implying that you are willing to sell tickets and you will be banned.
Please don't try getting around the ticket trading section of the forum charter because I'll just ban you.
I will err on the side of hard-headed in any ambiguous cases and ban you till after the concerts.

MOD NOTE 28 JUNE 2014

I genuinely hate doing this. But if people can't be civil to each other, this thread will be locked at first for 24hours and then longer.

Stop bitching.

There was a decision made. From here on talk about the concert only, not the circus around it's planning permission, if you want to do that, there's a Dublin forum

===========================================

No personal insults please. Keep things friendly. I do not want to have to close this thread again.

Doom

===========

So Garth Brooks has finally confirmed he is going on tour in 2014. Will there be an ireland date and if so which venue would you like to see him play?

Did you ring the special ticketmaster number for wheelchair seats thats on their website and not just a ticketmaster agent.The O2 has more that 20 tickets for shows and thats a lot smaller than Croker.

Croke Park capacity for matches is 82k. The stand behind the stage is unused when a gig is on though there is extra capacity on the pitch. For past gigs typically the number given is about 60k. If it's 2 nights it will be 120k but most seem to think it will be 3 so 180k or about 4.5% of the population of the country.

There is around 70k seats in croke park and you would fit nearly as many on the pitch as in the hill so there should be around 80k people at each night.

That's not to say there will be a pool of 160k tickets on general sale but should be around 140k.

out of interest has many people paid much over the odds for their room? 350 for 2 nights i got it for :-)

Thankfully I've 2 or 3 places I can stay in Dublin with friends etc so all I need to worry about is tickets.

paddyirish23

agreed!! best chance is going online nice and early should have a good chance of getting tickets i do expect both nights to sell out and a third possibly a fourth added if needed he did say in one of his interviews if he sold five nights he'd do five now i doubt it would get to five but if it's just a one off chance to see him and that inculdes the whole world, he'll sell out 2-3 gigs. I see dublin hotels strapped on the rockets when this was announced got my room as soon as it was for a good price but looking at some prices going up 3 fold?! i get the making money out of it which is to be expected but 1000 euro for 2 nights is barmy!! out of interest has many people paid much over the odds for their room? 350 for 2 nights i got it for :-)

Mrs Garth Brooks

The talk of queues starting has helped me make up my mind.

I'll stand no chance or a very little chance if I queue after 20 or so people.

Definately going online and hoping my phone network doesnt cut off on me. Ahhhh.

Outlets being closed.

And now pictures on the facebook page.

There isn't any pictures of anyone queueing.

Bloody hell people! Is this an information thread or not! As you have seen further down this feed yes there are people queuing already!! Forgive me for wanting to put out a bit of information! Even if it is to lament over as I am doing at the moment! You state there isn't any pictures of anyone queuing I say there is. I believe my point is proven further along this thread! Why do people have to be so petty! As for outlets being closed as you might see in an earlier comment I was told one thing, someone else was told another, and someone else was told something else again this morning. What I initially stated was two smaller TM outlets near us have both told us that they won't be selling tickets, one has changed there story twice so far. The other isn't answering the phone. Once I can definitely confirm what I've been told is fact then I will have no problem naming the second place. I was not scaremongering as you seem to think I was, I was trying to inform people that not all TMs may be selling (which is on other feeds also I might add). Oh and in relation to my attempt to scare people out of queuing that's crap,

Thats somewhere in the North, going by the radio station.

I googled the radio station and it looks like it's from Belfast. The picture looks dodgy as fúck especially in the image and on facebook they never gave the name of the shop.

Concert venues will warn no queuing before a certain time on the day of concerts. Can ticketmaster outlets not do the same for ticket sales? No queuing before a certain time.

If somebody was to get sick or injured or die sitting out like that, it will be everyone else's fault expect for their own and lawsuits will probably follow.

Mrs Garth Brooks

Looks like a joke. Look into their facebook pages. They have kids. Lets abondon the kids for a few days to get tickets.

Also someone commented under the picture and there's a queue in portloaise.

They have to be taking the p!ss to wind people up.

Look at their car right beside them outside a shop. Sit outside, make it look like they're camping, take picture and have a good laugh with it being spread around and into papers, then leave again.

Probably taken last night after a night on the p!ss.

I thought it was madness, teenagers queueing for one direction the day before. But this is even worse.

I seen on the fan page on facebook people are already queuing, didn't say where so not sure if it is true. Also read that Garth has hinted at doing a Belfast gig, hopefully he will.

Anyone know how many tickets are going on sale, will it be 160,000 ?

Think at this stage we can do nothing but hope for the best with the online process and the queue. If that all fails we will have to hold out for the irish leg of the tour..

I'll be sitting outside croke park regardless. You can join me outside and we can listen in.

I'm starting to suspect there are a few posts between the two threads which are deliberately trying to scare or misinform people.

Funny that because we psychically called into Stronges, he stated he would not be selling GB tickets as he has had bad issues with Queues previously, drinking, fighting etc. there is also another TM incorporated within another business in galway, we called to them, they also said the same thing, anytime they sold for big events in the past that people were queuing up outside for overnight they had complaints and Garda presence so they have opted not to sell. If you follow other feeds online I have seen a number of people state that certain places around the country are not selling. I am very close to Stronges in Balinasloe so trust me if I thought I could trust getting tickets there I'd be outside it like a shot as it would save me a whole heap of hassle. My friend has just rang and been told they are not sure if they will be selling thurs. I am only repeating what I have been told.

He did a quick uturn this morning.

As if the same type of drunken, fighting scumbags turn up for every ticket sale.

I'll be double checking tomorrow in person too.

Please advise people what ticketmaster outlets are not selling.
