    Is there much interest in this?

    I'd say it will be, a lot of people still like them. They even made new fan's who probably don't bother with their classic first two albums and stick to their MOR stuff. For me they've always been a very hit and miss live act, but going by selling out Slane and other Arena's around Ireland. I have no doubt they get a great crowd to this.

    KOL, since their third album have been on the wane
    they're bordering on embarrassing now. still young but seemingly finished from a creative point of view. only going through the motions.

    Seeing that they played True Love Way last night makes it slightly more tempting. Then again I still don't know if I wanna have to listen to all the post BOTT stuff.

    So glad I saw them in 08 before any of that sex on fire rubbish :)

    Would the best way of getting tickets be on ticketmaster.ie or going down to my local ticketmaster agent?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,905 ✭✭✭Noxin


    Ticketmaster was easy. Had mine in 2 minutes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,325 ✭✭✭prodsc


    Easy enough to get tix!


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,722 ✭✭✭✭antodeco


    Mine gotten. Site just kept twirling for a bit so go worried!

    Had mine in under 2 minutes as well. I saw them for the first time in New York in 2010, so I have nothing earlier to compare it against. I'm glad to have tickets got for a decent night out over the Summer. Enjoy everyone.

    That's just the way it works on ticketmaster now. Seems they set up a queue system that just constantly refreshes but makes you think it's fubar.
    It's a better system than the old days. At least the site stays alive now during the usual clusterfcuk scramble for big gigs.

    It doesn't matter if its not your name on the tickets does it?

    No. Sometimes you get asked what name is on the ticket but even that is very rare.

    Got tickets and now looking to book a hotel. Will there be a bus service before and after the concert?

    There usually is for Marley Park gigs. Dublin Bus run special services from the South Quays by Tara Street station. Think it was €10 or €12 return the last time I did it which was a good few years ago now. As Marley Park is right on the southern edge of Dublin it can takes ages to get there if the traffic is bad.

    There are also local buses which go out to Marley Park but I remember trying to get one from Rathmines for Longitude during the Summer and they were so full coming from the city centre that they weren't even stopping.

    It only matters if you're picking up the tickets but even then they'll just ask to see the card/confirmation email and the address. On very rare cases they'll ask for the name on the tickets if the gig is particularly strict but I haven't seen that in a very long time. When I was younger I'd always use one of my parent's credit cards and never had a problem with one of their names on the ticket.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 791 ✭✭✭viv2


    Seems to be sold out now unless they release more tickets closer to the date.

    Hi, does anyone know what time gigs generally kick off in Marlay Park? It says 5pm, but I know KOL won't be on stage then. Any ideas when they might come on? I'm flying back from London and would love to make the gig, have tickets, but still not sure if I'll make it.

    They will be on at around 8.45-9.00 PM I would imagine

    Does anyone know where to get tickets now for less than 75? Or will they be adding more nearer the concert?
