    Yeah that always happens with shows for some reason they are listed as sold out and about a month beforehand a load of tickets come up i imagine they are production hold tickets , same happened with Fleetwood Mac last week

    "Production tickets" is sometimes a way of saying here's our VIP/Platinum tickets we couldn't flog so we'll now sell them as general admission because we want any money now!

    Dermot Kennedy gig sold out in 30 mins so added another one. I've heard of his stuff and know he's player smaller venues but had no idea he would sell out 3Arena especially that quickly! https://twitter.com/DermotKennedy/status/1141986970974990339?s=19

    you can get seats for row J in the circle. Were tickets already sold for 3arena? I wonder how the reassignment works. I would be quite particular about seats in the olympia.

    If ticketmaster do not openly offer a refund you can usually still get one if there is a change of venue.

    Yup, Ticket sales must be bad since they could have moved it to the Bord Gais but have gone for a smaller venue like the Olympia

    If anything summed up greedy nature of some in music business. Its far from "live" music

    Dermot Kennedy - very like Lewis Capaldi for me and Walking on Cars too. Seems to be the music of the moment. They all sing with that sort of gravelly voice that people do. I find it very hard to tell one from another.

    I enjoyed the Roy Orbison hologram tour a couple of years ago but the price point was a huge issue given how short the show is.

    Luckily I won tickets and they were prime seats so I had nothing to complain about but had I paid I'd be fairly annoyed. The orchestra was brilliant and the Roy Orbison hologram was incredible. The integration of his vocal track and appearance over the music was very good but the appearance was a bit freaky at times. Didn't take requests either, poor form.

    Yep. But they mean it maaan. Can you not feel their pain....? :D

    It's either that or the yodel-like yelp we get from yer man in the Coronas and Picture This. I think they're supposed to be sounding like they're on the brink of tears....:confused:

    I know WOC can sound like other brands and vice versa but wouldn't think those 3 are that alike at all. But guess if one genre/style is seen as successful it will lead to imitation naturally. More power to him if he can sell out 3Arena though

    Haha yeah I thought Picture This and The Coronas were the same band for a while too.

    Don't get me wrong, fair play to all of them, especially the Irish lads doing well internationally.
