    I hear houses in some local estates had two tickets popped in the letterbox today. Mustn't have sold well at all.

    They get them as residents for being put out by the gig

    If they get 10-15000 they would be happy I'd say

    At the end of the day a lot of out door gigs this year, the price of tickets and the fact they only played the 3arena last November.

    Any idea of the stage times ?

    That was published before the facebook post allowing chairs.

    Not that widely. They usually distribute some via the Residents Associations, who usually have a raffle or draw to give them out. I've never heard of tickets being stuck in the letterbox before.

    Anyone got stage times for tomorrow?

    What are my chances of getting in on spec if I just rock up to the venue?

    Have early critical work meeting on Monday - but f**k that, it's Queen.

    Anyone know how early do you have to be there to be able to get to the front, and is it a mad rush when you get in the gate?

    Despite the fact that it was clearly stated that no queuing would be allowed...

    I don't know how they are going to enforce that. It's a public path outside the gate

    5.30.


    I'm not too bothered about the support acts, what time would you say Queen will actually take the stage?


  • Registered Users Posts: 896 ✭✭✭angel eyes 2012


    Watching 1992 Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert to get in the mood. There was a great lineup; Axl Rose, George Michael, David Bowie (actually mad to think that Axl still alive from that trio) Roger Daltery, Annie Lennox and others. Should be a great show later, I understand Marlay Park is the last concert of the current tour.


  • Registered Users Posts: 37,770 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Having a pint now before the bus up

    Looking forward to later, deff going to check out the support bands, loved the Darkness growing up, be nice to see Sir Bob in person even though the rats are average enough and queen and AB put on a great show always


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,578 ✭✭✭✭Ol' Donie


    The Darkness are amazing live. I urge anyone who's on the fence about the support to go and see them.

    I've one of those small light folding bags you can carry on your back and my mother brought a vary small backpack (didn't know she was bringing it). Will they be allowed in?

    Also what's the best way to get to Marley Park from city centre, by public transport

    16 bus from O'Connell St. straight to the gate.

    Thanks for the transport info

    My bag will be fine, I can fold it and shove it in my pocket. What I have in it can just be thrown in my pockets. My mother's bag is a worry, might be ok, it's a small big bigger then a4.

    Ditto the Rats.

    Really is a cracking line-up.

    Drove down. Got to MP just before 5. Strolled down through security and currently sitting down right next to the stage with what seems like a nice group of people around us. Doesn't seem to be any "pit" area blocked off and people are just roaming around. Really good atmosphere so far, really looking forward to the darkness. Bring on a great night.

    There are people with chairs too but they're being kept quite a bit back from the stage.
