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 had originally selected the postal option for tickets but in the rush to buy I didn't realise the option had changed to eticket. I contacted Ticketmaster and asked could they change the order and post them to me and they said ''no''

Hmmmmm must depend on who you get on the phone then....

I rang on Friday and was told it would be no problem.

Then rang again today spoke with a different girl just to double check everything was ok as when I logged onto my ticketmaster it said to contact customer services,
I was told my order was fine, and that it's no problem to change from eticket to post, it just takes up to five working days for the order to change on the system.

I wish they'd decide how many dates they want. I realise how lucky I am to have tickets for all 3 so far and I will go to any date there is. But it's very hard to plan anything when they keep throwing out more dates... Do people think that number 5 will come and be added on Thurs morning as we'll...

Good luck everyone trying to secure tickets

Better chance queueing in Limerick then. Two hour drive, im up for it.

Still no way they can guarantee everyone will get tickets. Similar events happened in Letterkenny and most who missed out are already planning to que again. I would hate to be trying to get tickets this time round when you see how quick the 1st 2 concert sold out on Thursday

Interviewed on Limericks Live 95fm as well and said he wants them to concentrate on Limerick and make sure the people who queued for days and didn't get a ticket get sorted. He said ticket master have insured him that they will send representatives down to make sure people are looked after.

I wonder if i phone tm in limerick and pretend i was in the queue, would they sort me out with two tickets.

Callin Baton Rouge I reckon.

Out of interest, how many people that already have tickets are going to try to get tickets for the Monday show too? I'm just wondering if this will actually be another 80,000 people who get to see Garth or if half or so will be people going to see him again.

I only have Sat tickets, but heard a few stories over the weekend of people going multiple nights

If I can go for the whole four shows, I would.

Five, six, whatever he plays i'll go.

I love his music, have all 18 cds, dvds. Of all his songs, there's one I dont like, Dixie Chicken, I think its on The Chase album. But the rest, I love them all. Im a massive fan.

That's another area that ticketmaster could have done to help.

I thought the ticket limit would have been for over the orginale two nights. I was wrong. It was 6 per night.

I purchased some tickets off Ticketmaster for my brother but it turns out his missus surprised him with tickets. I wish I had selected the option for the tickets to be posted out to me but instead I went with the option for tickets to be emailed to me instead.

So now I'm printing out and selling on two tickets that that have my name on it to a stranger most liely. Will they be able to gain entry... even though they're not me?

I was one of the people who said that a 4th date wouldn't happen and Croke Park aren't allowed more than 3 gigs in 14 days but obviously they have done some good negotiations with the nice residents of the area and in true GAA style. Money talks. I am delighted he put on a fourth date and I hope all of you who didn't get tix get them now.

sunbabe08

But there's a lot of folks, who obviously just got caught up in the hype. :-(:-( they like me didn't want to think they had no tickets for a concert they have been waiting 17 years for. I know personally I would have been gutted if I didn't get my ticket for sunday, I would have been bawling into my mums arms. But thankfully I'm going. But I can understand people panicking.

What pissed me off was ppl taking advantage of that & selling tickets at an outrages amount

I feel sorry for all those people who have shelled out huge amounts, well above face value, for tickets from people who had no interest in going and now an extra concert has been announced! Hands Up - Anybody here do that???

Not to be callous but they are part of the problem. As much as the touts got caught out by this announcement the people who supported them did as well.

There was plenty of post telling people to hold their horses and wait... either for more tickets to be officially released (be they production or another date) or just wait until close to the time when genuine fans who can't go sell on their tickets for face value. Throwing your money at the first person you see touting tickets doesn't even make good financial sense even if you intend to pay more.

TOLD YOU SO!!!

If I go (sorry to be uttering such sacrilege on this thread, by saying 'if'), I'll be going on my own, and I reckon a single ticket is a lot easier to come by - either by asking a nice husband to try on Ticketmaster.ie on Thursday, or by buying one from E-bay - there must be quite a few people who bought 6, but don't need all of them....

I'd want a seat. Lower tier. I'm old and need a bit of comfort!

Yes single ticket purchase is better, because I got 1 very "easily" only waited 25 mins, while my friend who went for 6, got none & were waiting a hour & a half & got nothing

Yeah, got that from his interview with 96 fm. He's genuinely shocked by the fact that 3 concerts sold out.

I just clicked on the 'Garth Brooks' trending thing (in Ireland) on Twitter...and saw this...

Carol Hunt ‏@carolmhunt 20m

So, there are to be FOUR Garth Brooks concerts at Croker? I may have to move house! #neighbour #notafan

Someone questioned this, and Carol Hunt says the 4th gig hasn't been announced yet...'but will be'....

Apparently she's a journalist.....

if it keeps the touts away, then i'm all for it. i have friends who missed out, we are now planning on queuing up thursday morning.

Thursday morning is reasonable and sane. With the madness that went on here last week, I wish there was some sort of rule - no queuing before a certain time. I wish you luck sunbabe.

is there anyway of paying more to pre-book them?
