    You can get pre-sale tickets by pre-ordering their album. That would be your best shot at getting a ticket cause on the day of general release you havent a hope of picking one up cause they will all be gone by 9:01AM. Yeah prices for the gig start off at €63. It would be a class gig in fairness but the prices are a bit steep

    Prices are steep allright.
    Was hoping that they might play the Opera House in Cork again ,not sure would I journey to Dublin for it

    prices are getting too steep, all we can do is boycott but that's impossible!

    That's exactly it, they have calculated the maximum peoplele will pay while still filling the place. Don't like it but it's supply and demand.

    Ah yeah, they can sell out 3Arena so bound to get enough fans paying the ticket price to sell out Olympia!

    I was lucky as I got two tickets in the presale but couldn't get a sniff this morning when I looked for a friend.


  • Registered Users Posts: 99 ✭✭Deenie78


    I was on ticketmaster at 1 second past 10 and no joy! Mad that they're only doing one night in the Olympia, I kept refreshing in the hopes that a second night would be added ...

    Cathy Davey on in St. David's church in Naas 26th of October. Just spotted it now. That'll be lovely.

    Hey - there's a 2020 thread now with a bit of discussion on this gig already ðŸ‘

    I heard a rumour (on Eminem fan page) that he is doing a European Tour in 2020, slane mentioned as a possible venue.. anyone else have info on a tour?

    Going by the last three gigs in Slane and Mountcharles statements about Slane returning to to Rock venue I doubt it will be Slane. The RDS though seen 7 or 8 gigs this summer so I'd pint for that. Just a guess

    Got tickets for Lloyd Cole in Vicar St next month. All that was left was standing in the balcony. Don’t really want to stand, but no other option. I didn’t think there was standing in the balcony in Vicar St. I’m wondering if there might be any chance of getting a seat on the night. (Age is a terrible thing !!)

    There's standing areas behind the seats in the balcony with a small table ledge but it's unassigned so first come first served.

    It's unlikely you'll get seats on the night unless you buy seated tickets. Seats can always look free until someone arrives right as the main act comes on.

    I see Robert Forster is back in town for an acoustic set in Whelan's on the 25th of November. Brilliant with the band in the Button factory a while back.

    Did he? I thought he only mentioned Cork. Anyway, good to see him back so soon.

    The Coronas have added a show in Castlebar for the 28th Dec

    Is John Newman doing any Irish shows this year end?


  • Subscribers Posts: 40,976 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    dunno if its been mentioned yet but Emmett Tinley is playing two solo gis this November:

    Nov 2, 2019 | The Stables Mullingar (IE) solo show
    Nov 3, 2019 | Whelan's Dublin (IE) solo show

    https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/emmett-tinley-tickets-72907856361?aff=eac2

    You may recognise the name from the 90s band 'The Prayer Boat' who released two acclaimed albums in the 90s, Polichinelle and Oceanic feeling. Emmett himself also released a beautiful eponomyous solo album in 2011 to go with his first solo album Attic faith in 2005

    Any sign of the Sinatras on these shores in the near future ?

    Their Two album acoustic gig in the Workmans was nothing short of a religious experience (for an old atheist like me anyway !)

    I see they're currently touring A Happy Pocket and Weightlifting in the US - so we can but hope !

    Noticed he's playing Kilkenny (Set) the previous night so have booked 2 tix for that - anyone been to this venue ?? LOOKS nice, but what's it like for an acoustic gig ? Also, any ideas whether this will be a fully seated gig, or seated/standing ?

    Only 1 price category so no clues in that regard

    Lovely award winning venue, have seen a good few acts in there, there is a mix of sitting and standing.
