Garth Brooks Comeback Special ALL 5 SHOWS CANCELLED READ FIRST POST

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?

Oh, right, it's just I'm hearing queues started yesterday, I didn't think us Irish were THAT desperate for this guy, guess I'm wrong.

ticketmaster.ie front page.

I'm confused, the website says Jan 30th, today is the 29th. Are they out early?

Typical that the Ticketmaster servers are going to be rebooted at 08:30 in the morning, the last 2 times they've done this it left 4 areas of the country without access until well after 11am

Have a few trial runs for buying tickets, you don't want to be thrown off guard when it comes to the character recognition part.

very nervous myself. will be very sad if i dont get tickets.

In Waterford there are 6 people queing allready

FTroydon

Is it possible to buy tickets for this from a ticketmaster outlet in a different country, or does each ticketmaster only deal with tickets for events in their own country?
I'm away at the moment so wondering if this is an option instead of online.

RiverOfLove

I think I'm going to piss myself with nerves.

I don't have a laptop or computer. Just a crappy mobile device and Ipod touch.

Would online be preferable to phone? Which would be quicker? I rang the ticketmaster hotline just there practising on other gigs like Dolly but not buying them and it takes you through many steps like press 2 to make a booking, and bla bla bla, and press eg 1 for whoever, press 2 for person, etc. I'd say the process is about 2 to 3 minutes before I get tickets. So on Thursday if I use the phone it will be that before I'm put into a queue.

That would slow down the process of buying tickets considerably yet I had luck on the phone before when tickets went on sale.

What happens if your trying to get them online and the site crashes? It happened last year for Beyoncé tickets. Can you only log on at 9am or can you be in a "que" from earlier?

If the website actually stops working for everyone then there is no risk of the tickets going anywhere fast. 180k tickets CAN NOT be sold by the ticketmaster kiosks alone. Even if every one of the listed kiosks sells the maximum 6 per transaction and each transaction only takes 1 minute then there can be about 27k sold in an hour without the website.

If enough people hit the website simultaneously that it can't shunt people to holding queues fast enough (I'm simplifying greatly here) it might give an error but the ticketmaster servers are fairly tough and designed for this so it is unlikely to last longer than five minutes.

Can tickets be purchased on the ticketmaster hotline and if so can I use a debit laser card?

sunbabe08

que the mass hysteria. tomorrow i'm gonna be hyper.

If you get standing and go for a beer. You wont get your place back again. It'll be taken.

Never mind a beer. How do people control their bladders if they get standing. Go off for a wee and your place is gone.

Gates open at 6pm. Concert starts around 8. Maybe finish around 10. And by the time you get out after 80000, maybe at 11pm. Thats five hours of a full bladder.

Once you're not too worried about being right up the front you'll still get a reasonable place in the middle. Plus if you got into the pit you'd be grand.

Guys, I'm trying to decide whether to aim for standing or seated tickets for the gig and am wondering whether any of you have for standing tickets for a croke park gig before and if so, how accessible is it for getting a beer? And can alcohol be brought back onto the pitch from the bar?

Apparently the site crashed as well for one direction last year and take that in 2011 too.

I bought Buble tickets back in 2010 for his Aviva concerts and I had no problem. That was a big one and high demand too.
Tickets go on sale at 9am, so at nine that's when you starting clicking to request your tickets and finding them.

Going by her previous posts she's probably buying for an entire village of people.

They will have the same quota buying online or in a shop. Well going by some posts they might have stricter quotas in shops.

Lunatic here queuing since 5.30pm monday in Lurgan set to queue 60hours

Dunno what touts would be charging but it would be a fraction of what you would have to pay me to do that.

PTH2009

i imagine seating would be broken up into different sections eg Cusack Stand Lower, Upper Hogan stand, Lower Hogan stand etc

Mrs Garth Brooks

I feel so sick hearing that people are camping out. Im in tears already.
