"So" tempting .... but a Dublin date would suit better

Mars Bar

Oooh fingers crossed for an Irish date!

Looks like a great tour. Hope he comes here. It's nearly a year away though

Motley Crue

Sounds good, although I dunno if I would make the journey to Manchester....Gabriel is Gabriel but Manchester is Manchester

I still remember how good his point gig was in 1993.
Particularly the opening number "Talk to me" with Sinead O'Connor.
Great stuff all round.

Grid.

Hope we get a date!!!!!!:eek:

We were in the Front Of Stage (FOS) standing area for Rush at the O2 World Berlin and it was excellent. Plenty of room, very close to the stage. Not sure if Gabriel has the same layout

Did you arrive early or was it easy enough to get to the front ?

We got there with about 10mins to spare !! .. If the Gabriel set up is the same as Rush, the floor of the venue is split into 2 sections (front / back) - but you enter via the same doors "innenraum"

FOS is the front section and providing thats the ticket you bought, the security guys will stamp your hand and put a bracelet on you and in you go ...

... but Ive seen other gigs advertised there as just "innenraum" - where the whole standing area is open ...

Cant find a seating map online .. but here's roughly what Im talking about :

Cheers Ray.:)

Great venue in a great City.

RayCon

Looks a great night rednik ... looks like you got pretty close to the front (similar area to where I was for Rush). Totally agree with you about Berlin ... great city to go to for gigs and make a a couple of days trip out of it.

Mars Bar

Oh man, that looks fantastic!
I'll be crossing everything in the hope that he comes here.

NwRepairman

I saw him in Berlin on the New blood tour and it was sensational

was at Marlay park also so hopefully he'll pop baack over here...

Any idea of ticket prices yet?

delbertgrady

It looks like Cardiff and Dublin are being done with the optimum standing configuration, and won't be fully seated unlike the UK shows. I reckon the O2 will be the small standing area, with the tiered seats starting close to the floor, as opposed to the full standing floor with a "balcony".
A fully seated arrangement would have been nice, but on the plus side, the standing option means that we don't have to panic about getting good seats. Just get a standing ticket.

Mars Bar - like me, this presumably means two nights in a row for you in the O2: Elton John on the 9th and Peter Gabriel on the 10th.

Aiken are now stating:
"Tickets on sale Wednesday April 30th priced €65.45 & €44.05".

No chance. It'll be standing on the floor only.

Cant wait for this. Last seen him in the Point 1993.

Any idea if the dearer tickets will be seated or standing?

On the ticketmaster page for the gig, the layout that loads is optimum standing, and that may be the layout used?

That is the layout that was also used for Meat Loaf, Fleetwood Mac and Status Quo and Country 2 Country.

I would imagine that the tickets listed as €44.05 are the ones in the back rows of the blocks in the upper corners of the balcony seating, like blocks P and H?

And that all other tickets, standing and tiered seats from block A to Block G and in the other parts of blocks H to P, are €65.45?

The tickets at the back are usually not as expensive as general standing, for example in the case of the Lady Gaga tickets where the standing tickets are 81 euros and at the moment it is selecting tickets for 54 euros.

For example, a single seat in row 50 of the upper balcony in block L and four seats in row 52 of Block J are 54 euros each. It is also selecting tickets in block K row 46 for 81 euros, so that sounds like any of the less expensive tickets are the very back rows of the venue.

Edit: how do I include two quotes in the one message? I included what I wrote above about the pricing of the Lady Gaga gig, in response to a query on the ticket price options for standing and seating, by UsedToWait, in a reply, on the next page

I couldn't figure out how to include a 2nd quote:o
