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?

This is a longshot, but I will throw it out there. Garth has in the past been known to do multiple shows on the same day. He did this in Los Angeles and crammed 5 shows into 2 days.

A place like Croke would be a massive undertaking to do this, but theoretically they could add a day show Saturday and 2 Sunday shows bringing total to 5 over the 3 days. Highly unlikely though.

No way would this happen. It'd be impossible to clear the grounds of 80,000 after the first concert in any decent time. Also the roads are congested enough as it is with one event on, could you imagine the problems with 80,000 trying to leave as (up to) 80,000 are queueing to get in.

3 concerts only. Do not buy tickets from touts as the ads are tracked and very often the tickets once identified are cancelled by TM. They go back into the system and resold with a new bar code. The old tickets will be rejected at the venue. Best of luck to all the genuine fans.

Common tout tactic, they get the first ads up in the hopes of securing tickets, if they dont, they pull the ad.

Mrs Garth Brooks

So best available

You get standing and if thats not available you get seats. Is that how it works?

Would prefer standing.

Yep, a 3rd show added right after the first 2 sell out, and that will likely be the end of it.
Unlikely that there'll be another gig elsewhere, and extremely unlikely there'll be any tour of Irish cities.
A tour of Ireland possibly when he's doing the proper world tour.

Just one thing, he's coming out for 2/3 HUGE gigs with no previous tour time behind him, do not be surprised at all if there's a secret warm up gig a few nights before in somewhere like Vicar Street

The demand is there for him to sell out 4 or 5 shows at Croke Park. If there is a 3 show limit, then he is already planning on adding shows in other cities.

If they are allowed 4 shows, then it's less likely there is anything beyond Croke planned. But with only 3 onsale tomorrow, there will be many people left disappointed, and given that they're shipping all their equipment and people over for Dublin, it would make sense that they not leave any unhappy fans with ticket money on the table.

I'd say he could move 400,000+ tickets across Ireland if he wanted to. At 65/ticket, that's 26 Million Euro for maybe 8 shows total. That's about $34 Million USD.

I've read all sorts of things, and have starting from last year.

With 1D getting 3 shows, Nobody thought that even 1 Garth show at Croke would be possible. I've read that up to 5 nights were reserved, but we will certainly know for sure in the next 24 hours. Any new Croke shows will get announced Immediately, and tomorrow will be the only time tickets for that venue will be sold.

No, because there will be at least another show or two added. The people farther back will not get tickets to Friday or Saturday though, but so long as they wait once those are announced as sell outs, they'll get tickets to one of the new nights. Depends upon how quick the people running the outlet are in printing the tickets and being prepared for added shows.

of course, as i was with demand and the psychotic nature of garth brooks fans, i could be wrong..

Careful_now!

Ticketmaster site says vertigo sufferers should select sections 301 - 336

Is that an option when booking tickets online or do I just chose seating and hope for the best?

If you JUST want standing and are not interested in the option of sitting if standing is not available then choose standing. Best Available will try match you with a standing ticket and if there are none it will give you seated tickets. if you choose standing.. there are none... then decide you want seating you will need to reselect tickets and you will be requeued which means you could end up with much worse seated tickets than if you'd selected best available originally.

Best available does mean you could end up anywhere. If you end up getting standing tickets and you want seated tickets, you could always trade them on Toutless.com. There's always plenty of people who want to trade seated for standing.

There is a standing section. Best available pecking order usually starts with standing and then if that is full the closest set of available seats and works back. If you don't need to sit then choose best available.
