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?

I like many didn't get tickets and am devastated so I hope they burn a hole in the Scum's pocket and no luck comes from profiteering

There will be plenty of tickets available closer to the gig.
People need to keep a calm head ,no rush .

The premium seat tickets are still to go on sale,and the promoters have a large percentage of tickets held back .These tickets will go on sale once the stage layout is known and safety regulations passed etc.

Ticketmaster often hold back tickets to increase the hype of gigs ,they often say gigs are sold out but thousands of tickets go onsale later on.
These tickets are often the best seats in the house.

U2 played Croke Park in 2009 for 3 nights in a pre recession Ireland and the demand then was higher than for Garth Brooks,tickets sold out in under an hour and the touts were selling tickets for below face value for the first 2 gigs.

dont go to touts please

your only encouraging them

wait

@ want to make a quick turnover

so stay calm and relax

people that are selling tickets will sell close to face value the closer it gets to the event (as they wont want to be stuck with tickets they cant use).

if your impatient then try websites that are anti-touting such as toutless.com

dont panic and encourage the scum of the music scene

Nailed it.

I didn't get tickets myself, but there WILL be extra tickets released closer to the event. Every big/ highly anticipated concert I've seen over the years has had tickets held back because touts are willing to scam people.

Trisha might come on stage for one or two duets with Garth

Wonder if that thing about them having to be Irish is true? Would love to see an upcoming American country star cone here.

She will make an appearance during the show

Nathan Carter said last week, he was just back from London with massive news. Said he couldn't share it just yet! Wagon Wheel to 80,000 fans. There'll be 35,000 left by the time Gb comes out!

Anyone know when tickets would be posted or do you print them off?

Was trying to get two tickets this morning for any of the gigs. Rip-Off Master need to get something better in place for gigs that are in such demand. My girlfriend made 35 calls with no success. We were both trying to get wheelchair area tickets!! :mad:

There was lots of hassle at the Ticketmaster outlet in Limerick this morning

http://www.limerickleader.ie/what-s-on/arts-entertainment/music/anger-in-limerick-as-fans-fail-to-secure-garth-brooks-tickets-1-5844884

They didn't open the doors until 9:50, and then only 46 people were served tickets. People had been there for days :O

I was contemplating queuing, but I'm so glad I didn't now

Got two seated for the Sunday night after a 40 min wait

Same here was just in there some where still hanging on in case they announced a fourth date but was stupid they should've known that this was going to sell out quick and not only that but the stupid ticketmaster servers crashed twice !! he'll have to add another date as he said he'd work something out, this was a world wide sale as for people selling them for 4 and 5 times the value they should have those tickets cancelled!!

aka accounts 2010

Had 3 laptops and the App at the ready at 9.00am this morning.

Had 6 standing tickets for the Saturday night secured with a confirmation email received by 9.03am.

Was well impressed with it.

OH GOD, not crystal swing.

well im not a big fan of the irish country music scene so that was a very wild guess. im sure if someone here is into irish country they could let us know who is popular these days that would likely support him.

but that would be my guess.

myself and teh brother are bringing our mother for her birthday this year. the brother was a fan when he was a kid and well as far as im concerned its Garth fricken Brooks

so ill tolerate crystal swing if i have to. god knows ill need time to find that low place where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away

I was on the app and the website and I was able to get to the order page first on the app but it was hanging for the longest time. I was then able to finally get to the order page on the website and got through to buy tickets before the app.

I was able to get 6 tickets through the laptop and at the same time 6 tickets via the APP - I got in first time with minimal wait too. So I am not sure there is a difference in that sense as to what type of device you use.

I only bought six in the end. which was the perfect number for what I needed.

Tigger99

That wasnt my experience of the app either, at 9.02 it said none were available for Saturday when there was, so no preferencial treatment there.

Having said that I'm going to contradict myself and say it worked well for me for getting 2 tkts for the Sunday gig.

Saw an add online for premium level ticket for sale??? Do these seats exist or where could you get them??? Thanks in advance

Travel Companies buy the 10 year tickets so can sell them for whatever they want. Usually package them up with 2 nights in an overpriced hotel.

My bet is Karyn Rochelle. Opened for him before and wrote the new song for Garth. GAA have a rule that an Irish act has to be on the bill too

A fair few ticketmaster small outlets do that. Can backfire though when you think you are sorted so don't try and they don't get enough or your tickets end up in their mates hands. Just saw similar tickets to the ones I sold on at face value on eBay for over 1000 quid.... Damn my morals

Just wait, touts are selling now during the panic. Over 200k tickets, there will be plenty floating about before the gig. However it might be mostly for Sunday

I got mine after an hour and 5 minutes of trying. Didn't think I had a chance at that stage but was afraid to give up.

Was an hour and a half late for work but so worth it.

I'm sure Plazaman feels even better now that you've shared that piece of information :rolleyes:
