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 was thinking the same... I hope it's not a sign that the Friday night won't go ahead

Do you know any information? Is news coming out soon? To be honest I wouldn' t be surprised if one or two nights (the Tuesday and Monday) doesn't get the go ahead.

Nope, I've heard nothing yet but the decision can't be far off at this point.

Reducing the number of shows would be a compromise to both sides of the argument and would seem to be the sensible way out of the quagmire. I feel that any future plans by Croke Park are going to have to follow a new policy of consultations with residents groups.

No matter what the outcome is there are going to be people left with a bitter taste in their mouths and that bitterness is going to be blamed on Croke Park.

Remember that this is a Music forum and as such the music is the primary topic of discussion.

Thanks and much appreciated.

Where can I watch Garths 1997 Dublin gig online? Or ANY YouTube songs?

Garth Brooks isn't on YouTube or iTunes so I'm afraid you'll have to go out and buy it or buy online. His concert DVD from Dublin 97 is included in a DVD boxset known as 'The Entertainer'.

Id say he will do the classics such as Tomorrow never comes, The Dance, friends in low places etc.

I hope he does Two Pina Coladas

I'm guessing that he will work of the ultimate hits cd.

That_Girl_ Is_ A_Cowboy

I meant to come back here last night but I got sick so I couldn't.

Remember last year, a group of Irish students from Galway transformed Avicii's Wake Me Up into Irish. I thought they did a brillant job and I loved it very much. If you check YouTube with TG Lurgan, you can find them there with a range of songs and they are very good. Word has it, they've gone and done it again this summer and one of the songs that they worked on is a Garth Brooks song . I'm keeping my mouth shut as to what it is. It's not up on YouTube yet and I didn't hear any radio airplay of it yet but I'm looking forward to it.

I dont care who plays the opening act. But that means its definately going ahead.

Not necessarily, aiken are putting everything together under the assumption that it's going ahead, much easier to cancel stage, security etc than try put it together at a months notice.

Re: the setlist, it's not gonna be anything too adventurous and I don't think it'll change too much from night-night. It's gonna be 90% hits, 1 or 2 from the boxset and MAYBE a Tricia duet. Might end the nights with American pie or pianoman but I wouldn't say so.

Mrs Garth Brooks

They should just have Chris Gaines as the opening act.

It may kill the poor guy though.

I love him so much.

That_Girl_ Is_ A_Cowboy

Actually just read his tweet above again and maybe he's doing just the Friday evening. There's still hope for Derek Ryan and Nathan Carter. If Derek Ryan gets a go in and I hope he does, I hope he brings Sharon Shannon due to his collaboration with her for his new single. She's always great for getting the crowd going.

I have a little news to tell but will do so later because I'm busy and just taking a little peep at boards.

That_Girl_ Is_ A_Cowboy

Is Shane playing every evening of the 5 evenings? I read over in after hours that it was going to be a different act every night. It was in the licence application for the concerts I think. I was hoping for Derek Ryan and Nathan Carter.

That's disappointing

Munster_Gal

Have to say, I was never a westlife fan but i've seen them twice in concert and they put on a great show. Shanes first solo single was great too. very catchy. I'm just glad it's not Nathan Carter and that annoying bloody wagon wheel! :pac:

sunbabe08

*squeal* wanted to go see Shane filan in the marquee anyway. This is even better. Woot!!!!

Sunny Dayz

If he sang "To make you feel my love" - a Bob Dylan song that GB covered and more recently done by Adele - my god that would make my night - It was myself and the hubbie's first dance at our wedding.

Mrs Garth Brooks

There's so many songs I want him to sing

Standing Outside the Fire
Burning Bridges
The River
The Thunder Rolls
Fishing in the Dark
The Red Strokes
Tearin it up and burnin it down
Callin Baton Rouge

Of course, my song Hard Luck Woman. (Its not a song on any of his albums. But its the only song on itunes that Garth Brooks sings. Its on the album, Kiss My Ass: Classic Kiss).

Hope he sings some from his Blame it all on my roots boxset. I love White Lightning.

Hope Trisha comes out and sings with Garth too. The Call is a good song.

There's so many songs.
