Its just a silly comment though..

Foos not in the Aviva means theyll be in Marlay Park.. Bleeh

Why is it a silly comment? People disagree with it yet won't explain how the Foo Fighters are not bland.

One band that certainly isn't bland is Booker T and the MG's!!:)

The Foos are almost as boring as the script. Incredibly mediocre radio friendly rock. Whats most annoying about that is the members of The Foos were all in far more interesting bands beforehand, Nirvana, Scream, Sunny Day Real Estate, The Germs.

Ah, don't be quoting Silverscreen without reference now.

I'm surprised Pharrell is a support act

Same here, I dont think he went down well last time he was here everyone was just waiting for him to sing Get Clucky..

Truly dreadful and mind numbingly mediocre from every aspect.

Not gonna lie, I somewhat liked The Script when they released their first album a few years ago, wouldn't have been a fan, but I'd enjoy if one of their songs was played on the radio. But they've just turned into the same crap that everyone else produces.

While were talking of The Script would there gig that tickets go on sale tomorrow be sold out quick? Just looking to get tickets but am in work until 6 2mro night

You won't have any problems getting tickets tomorrow night.

In saying that, you might find it difficult to get some of the better seats (lower tiers or premium near the stage) after the initial rush in the morning but you'll be able to get standing tickets and upper tier seats.

Ah lovely stuff thanks for the quick reply.

Would standing not sell quicker?

I guess it depends on the price of seats compared to standing.

It doesn't yet clarify on ticketmaster's site, the prices of the specific tickets, for example it doesn't yet state if the most expensive tickets at 79.50, are seats.

What about tickets for people with disabilities??

I think you may have to phone ticketmaster to buy accessible seated tickets.

There are contact details on this page:

http://www.ticketmaster.ie/h/a_seating.html

"Ticketmaster, on behalf of its clients, strives to make it as easy as possible to purchase accessible seating for venues across the country. Most venues offer accessible seating areas to accommodate their guests. Availability and type of accessible seating will vary based on each venue's policies and/or the type of event taking place.

Note: Venues are solely responsible for establishing their own accessible seating policies. Some venues sell all or a portion of their accessible seats only through their box office and not through Ticketmaster.

Order your tickets by phone at the number below. Please note that Ticketmaster aims to process requests for accessible seating as soon as they are received, but heavy volume can result in delays.

Re Script tics. Twice I've gotten the reply, no ticket available. I've been on since 9am. On my third and final attempt.

Who gets these tickets?? I never seem to be lucky enough to get tickets for these big gigs.
