    A fair compromise would be cancel the 2 gigs added after the originals went on sale.

    No it wouldn't because then I wouldn't get to see him and use the tickets I have paid for.

    clearly your going to one of the gigs and probably live nowhere near croke park, to be confined to your home (more or less for 5 nights) is not on, the garda prevent residents from driving to their homes, people are urinating everywhere, litter and then of course ungodly crap music that the rednecks of Ireland are big into. a gig is far worse than a gaa match, far far worse!! moaning my ass, they are well within their rights!

    Confined to your home? Cop to fúck on. You're not confined to your own home. A few street closures will occur where you will probably get a pass or some sort of a deal is struck with a nearby carpark. God forbid that you walk for a few minutes to a carpark and back again.

    Would sh1tting and p1ssing about the place be representative of the crowd attending to Garth Brooks? It's not the Swedish House Mafia for fúck sake.

    Hopefully the thread will stay open for a long time.

    It's like giving a nice thick rope to the Croker zealots to hang themselves seeing as the best argument they can come up with thus far is basically we can do it so we will do it and if you don't like it, move out.

    Good work, chaps.

    And it'll show up those that only post in GAA threads to disparage it.

    I'm sure the residents enjoyed the peace and quiet of no concerts last year.

    Yes it would , everything seemed to be fine until they decided to push two extra nights on them . So I would say it's the best compromise .

    The judge probably gets the same moaners every time.

    Not a hope, they'll be cancelled.

    It doesnt matter where the gigs are held, or who plays, there are always moaners. Any excuse will be used. Shure its probably the neighbours sh!tting in each others gardens. Its not the first time Bertie shat on people.

    That may very well go on where you come from as you and others have mentioned that on several occasions. We city folk are used to indoor plumbing ;)

    If that happened your gripe should be with the promoters for selling tickets to a gig they had no license for then.

    I wouldn't worry to much though, chances are the gigs will go ahead.

    Aye, imagine daring to disparage the owners of Croke Park in a thread about the concerns of residents re: concerts in said venue.

    Sorry, it was you residents that said people were crapping in your gardens. Knackers in Dublin with nothing better to do at 3am, well after the crowds have gone home.

    No way would someone pull their pants down with 80000 walking past them with guards around.

    It doesn't happen anywhere else.

    Shure I was up in Dublin there last week and saw crap smeared all over some wall. Where were the crowd that did it.

    Its any wonder Dublin is a proper hole with the people in it.

    It could be worse you could cry over the fact you got tickets to a concert but you got crappy seats now that would describe a grade A+ moaner to me .
    Well they need an events license to go ahead so who knows what will happen between now and then .

    You can park on Jones' Road. Not a problem at all.

    There are no tractor parking areas in the vicinity but luckily all the locals will be too spaced out on smack to notice!

    Will it have room for a muck spreader; or shall I leave that for the line dancers?

    The GAA as an organisation are great for the whole country. The internal company charged with managing Croke Park are less than ideal for neighbours to deal with.

    Imagine that, getting to enjoy a bit of piece and quiet, the neck of them.

    If its such a hole then obviously you'll not be travelling to it for a concert then.

    There is already 3 1 direction gigs so to put the neighbours through 5 nights of Garth brooks would be mental torture of the highest level .

    The concept of "per year" is obviously lost on you then.

    So if Garth Brooks played while jumping off a cliff you'd happily follow?

    ??

    One would beg to differ.

    I thought you were interested in all the mulla it'll bring into the country*

    * By country I mean Mr Brooks and Aiken promotions.

    If the Bertie Bowl had gone ahead, we wouldn't be having this issue.

    I think you'll find "Dublin Knackers" as you so eloquently put it, would not be caught dead at a Garth Brooks concert.
    Knackers they may be, but they still have taste, and more importantly ears ;)

    I didn't say the went to the toilet in my garden, but on my doorstep(I didn't have a front garden as lots of the houses around there don't)
    The residents live there ALL year long, bit of stretch to think that they become crazed during a concert and leave the comfort of their own home to literally sh!t on their own or neighbours doorstep, wouldn't you think?

    Its the hoards that have been drinking pints of dubious lager in the venue, then get the urge to go to the toilet as leaving the venue.
    Ooops, guess what?
    80.000 other people want to go to the toilet at the same time as you.
    In their drunken stupor they will go to the toilet ANYWHERE.


    As you say....
    "Its any wonder Dublin is a proper hole with the people in it"

    It's charming to see your attitude towards the place where you will get to see your beloved Mr Brooks.
    It also speaks volumes of how people like you will treat the city when they visit and more importantly the respect you have for the people who live there.
