    It looks like you need to be a member of

    http://www.thekillersvictims.com/

    and have spent over $35 on the site

    Cheers for that!

    reminder for Friday morning set!!! :)

    Big fan of the Killers and I liked his first solo album too.

    This one is going to sell fast. Not as tricky to get as when he played the Academy but it wasn't my job to get them that time. New single is good, sounds like a Kate Bush song. Looking forward to this.

    Only premium victim account holders get access to presale, is that right? Is Brandon's mailing list a separate presale or where can I sign up?

    I can log in to the ticketmaster presale via my victim membership. Whether this is the only way or not I don't know. Sorry

    I got an email from Brandon Flowers that directs me to seetickets. But Dublin isn't on the list then. Whether it will be and whether they'll look for the password or not I don't know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,325 ✭✭✭Omega28


    Is there any way around the $35 to gain entry to pre-sale?

    If you find a way let me know. Doubt the link in the Brandon Flowers email will let me buy tickets tomorrow.

    Why I wouldn't have posted the code in the thread.


  • Registered Users Posts: 457 ✭✭Celtise


    I just tried the code and it has come up with ground price level 2 ticket. Am I right to say that's standing ticket? Not too familiar with seating set up in Olympia!

    They are standing all right but to be certain, just select standing when from the drop down menu "Section" when you are inputting the code.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,535 ✭✭✭Radharc na Sleibhte


    I hope everyone I had PMd a code to still buys me a drink after ellenc8 telling everybody!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,535 ✭✭✭Radharc na Sleibhte

    Hey guys I am having serious difficulty getting a presale password, I have tried the legit way several times and have got nothing. Is there anyone with a spare password to purchase some tickets.

    Did anyone get standing tickets NOT through presale? Was online at 9, and selected best available and got Row J circle, restricted view.

    I got a standing ticket this morning.
    I think if you choose best available, sometimes it starts looking for seated tickets first (which makes no sense at all).
    You are better off picking the standing section on your own.

    Ah ok, I was wondering had they all gone in the presale! We tried again, and got Row K, which still isn't great, but at least no restricted view (unless someone very tall sits in front of me :P)

    Wow have to say I am surprised they went quite as quickly as that! Delighted I got my tickets early now!

    I'm so happy that he's kicking off the European side of things in Dublin!
    When he did the same for Flamingo (two nights in a row in The Academy), the album had literally been out a couple of days and the Irish crowd knew each and every lyric. B-Flow was visibly moved and seemed to love every second on that stage. I do hope that this was an incentive to begin in Dublin again.

    I'm lucky enough to be seeing him seven times (in ten days!) on the upcoming tour. The first Brixton date sold out in one minute! You can imagine the stressful morning I had trying to get all those tickets!!!

    Thanks ts_editor although I'm not going to the gig the OP wasn't reading the charter, he never put down the date of the gig, yours was the first post to mention the date.

    Times per Olympia website:

    Door 7pm
    Joywave 8pm approx.
    Brandon 9pm approx.
    End 10.30/11


    Just looking through my stuff for the ticket and realised must collect at box office. Was this the only option? No idea why I picked it otherwise.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 5,278 Mod ✭✭✭✭Irish Aris


    that was brilliant!!!
    The new songs sound great live, the addition of trumpet and saxophone in the band helps a lot.
    Beautiful semi-acoustic version of Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine!

    I will be in the States while he will tour there, I will consider go see him again!


  • Registered Users Posts: 457 ✭✭Celtise


    Brandon has announced another London date for November. Would love if he came back here too.


    http://thekillersnews.com/post/129580630773/brandon-flowers-announces-november-16-2015-show

    "Brandon Flowers has announced a Monday November 16, 2015 show at the O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London.

    A Victims presale will take place on September 23, 2015 at 9:00am local time.

    Rumors had persisted for several months that Flowers would be returning to Europe later this year. However, it is unknown if additional dates will be announced in the near future."
