    If you go in to tours it tells you over on the left hand side of the screen.

    $50.

    Not sure if it's worth it as this stage. I can't see there being too many pre-sale tickets left after 24 hours.

    Any idea on breakdown? How much are pitch tickets?
    Red zone tickets are 315 quid. Presume thats the pit?

    Looks like the red zone is a little square right beside the stage.

    Anyone know how much pitch 2 would be? I'm guessing around €150

    "Wednesday, Jan. 11, 9am     - Presales open"

    Redhill group then. Yay!
    I've been registered continuously since 2009, I had been hoping that was 'long term' enough.

    I had to go into "My Account" and it had the group on the left.

    I'd imagine pitch 2 just means If you arrive early enough to get "pit" access. Pitch standing price seems the same for pitch 1 and 2.

    Don't see an issue regarding the presale

    The entire tour goes on presale on Wednesday and Thursday, not just the Dublin date.

    Whether it's Wednesday or Thursday we get them, we'll still get the tickets or have a better chance than the general public will have.

    The important thing is that they play Electric Co.

    Why even mention it on TMs site then? Seems odd but they just have "standing". Nothing about pitch 1 and 2 being different prices.
    They should just say 
    Pitch 1: People who are on the ball.
    Pitch 2: One gig a decade bogwarriors from the midlands with tricolours in pink cowgirl hats.

    Seems strange alright, but the price breakdown regions on the bottom left of the same pic only show 1 breakdown for pitch.

    Twickenham has the whole pitch in general as one. Not split into two.

    No way they're going to charge different prices for different sections of the pitch. Red Zone is a different matter

    Wondering what the 'Gold and Silver' tickets are - would that be Pitch 1 and 2?

    Silver and Gold are VIP seats, with certain things like lamented programme, t shirte etc thrown in

    The Joshua Tree, as good as it is, is only 11 songs. That's about half their normal setlist. Will this be reflected in the ticket prices I wonder? :pac:

    They''ll drop the album mid way through the gig after a load of their recent tunes that all sound like the Killers/Kasabian and sometimes Keane.

    That fúcking dreadful Joey Ramone one for example. If the Kaiser Chiefs did that people would slag it.

    So lads what do you reckon will be the percentage of tickets held back for general sale? And is there any indication of how much standing tickets are? Hardly €150 for the whole pitch?

    At 315 quid, they should rename the Redzone the "Cúnts Zone"

    £78 quid for a standing ticket in London

    That'll be 90 euro then

    The reason I said €150 for pitch 1 is because I thought the pitch would be split in two like on the ticketmaster link I posted above and that would be the price for the pit. Like GnR are doing for slane. Apparently that's not the case though? So it'll probably be around €100 for standing and if you want to be in the pit get there early.

    Probably better I can only get tickets Thursday. Don't get paid until then. Saves me asking for a loan until I get paid the next day.

    I hope to fook there are still some presale tickets left for Croker on Thursday. Otherwise I'll have to join the rat race on Monday morning.

    8 tickets per person on the general sale, what a ****ing joke. Ticketmaster and promoters really don't care about touting at all.

    Are public sale tickets going to be available on u2.com or ticketmaster? Does anyone know what time does the public sale start next Monday?
