The Aviva would be better than the RDS anyway, but somewhere like Marley Park would suit everyone much better I think.

I've only been to one gig in the Aviva and thought it was great overall, as mentioned the exciting of the stadium is way easier/safer than the RDS. If the RDS is not available then Aviva really would be the easiest alternative as it has seats vs Malahide or Marley. Ill probably pick up a ticket soon enough anyways no matter the location.

The pandemic may of put a halt to the RDS redevelopment plans

Sat in the Anglesea Stand for 2 shows in 2019 and its in bad need of redevelopment. Bloody metal bars obstructing the view of the stag, bought a ticket for the new stand for this show

Weezer after releasing a belter of an album so will have to consider this one, although a Monday doesn't suit at all

Mondays suck for gigs but it was a Monday that we bought for originally

With the resheduling I have crowded house on the Sunday and green day on the Monday, with the gig drought currently going on, the day of the week won't matter to me.

Yeah I haven't bought yet, was never Abe to commit and still may not, it just makes it bit harder

PTH2009 · 28-04-2021 8:12pm

Jesus who would of thought when tickets went on sale August 2019 that the show would not take place (and still might not) in June 2022

Bloody thrilled last new years eve listening to the bands and thinking in excitement what's ahead for the summer but covid had other ideas.

Life is up from here hopefully

Same, i got a refund when after they announced that the 1st rescheduling of the 2nd Feb 2020 was cancelled. Then it was refixed for the 5th Nov 2020 but as we know covid messed that up and now its set for 1st March 2022. Can Ozzy get through a full tour ?

A friend is holding the tickets which were bought in the Sound Cellar, so even if we wanted a refund we need to wait for Tommy to open back up.

Ozzy lasting for a tour? I doubt it

The travel alone would be to much

but Axl Rose/Dave Grohl performed concerts sitting down in the throne and Phil Collins has to sit for all his shows now (and not for his natural stance behind a drum kit) and i wouldn't put it past Ozzy to do something like that

Hope so, was really looking forward to this back when I was a young lad

Weepsie · 25-07-2021 6:06pm

How much seating had they sold? Could hardly get away with it in Donnybrook a la the national a few years ago?

Furious-Red · 25-07-2021 9:39pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117660042#Comment_117660042

It was pretty much sold out in the rds, so there is no way it would be moved to a smaller venue lie Donnybrook

Can not wait for it now looking at that :)

PTH2009 · 25-02-2022 8:54pm

I imagine Green Days date in Moscow will now be cancelled

Hope it won't mean they will cancel the entire European tour because of security issues etc

Yep

Christ I was wrong about many covid related posts but can you not accept mistakes happen and I want to be able to post my opinion without you on my back ?

Not much of a surprise really, and proper order too. I think your fear of the entire European tour getting cancelled is a bit of a stretch though.

Thankfully not the case

Roll on the gig, only 17 more weeks

Aisling(",) · 31-03-2022 10:44am

Location has been changed to Marlay Park.

Does anyone know if they have free parking for concerts?

PTH2009 · 31-03-2022 12:14pm

Bit of a balls esp with no seated tickets now. Will they be gold circle tickets now ?

Guess we won't be getting back any price difference either

PCros · 31-03-2022 12:20pm

Shame, I much prefer the RDS.

My ticket still says Golden Circle so I assume they will set it up the same.

km79 · 31-03-2022 12:59pm

Good job I didn’t book the hotel yet so :D

PTH2009 · 31-03-2022 1:06pm

Requested a refund for my seated ticket as its the same price as general admission standing

Rather pay the extra few € and get golden circle and have some bit of comfort

PTH2009 · 31-03-2022 3:46pm

Got a refund easy enough for my seated ticket.

Golden Circle tickets works out about €10-€15 extra

The RDS may be a more convenient location for Dublin based people but Marley park much more accessible for non Dubs. It's also a much better venue, the pitch in RDS literally has only one entrance and can get seriously jammed at times during a sold out show. Gold circle will be just a pit Infront of the stage I'd assume.

endainoz · 31-03-2022 4:45pm

Also whoever is trying to sell gold circle are the original price when you can buy them cheaper off ticketmaster won't get too far 🤣

The situation about seated tickets is frustrating esp with no word about the gig been moved (I knw been TBA on the website but TM always had RDS tickets for sale)

The RDS been in the city was handier for acceess to pubs etc

For anyone outside of Dublin, travelmaster is a great service and used it for previous shows in Marley Park. Drop off and collection at the venue

I can’t see any tickets on the website, are they gone?

Fair enough for the seating, but I still prefer marlay park as a venue.

Stage probably be in front of the House for this

Queen in 2018 wasn't a sell out that these gigs will/could be and the layout was the stage on located at the sides

Sheog · 31-03-2022 6:26pm

Can’t wait for this gig now 😎 Have never seen Weezer live so extra excited!

Anyone know what the story is with ‘gold circle’ tickets? Paid €99.50 for them back in 2019

PTH2009 · 31-03-2022 6:37pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118862378#Comment_118862378

Basically a large pit closer to the stage

More than likely get a wrist band when your ticket is scanned in so you can come and go

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118861993#Comment_118861993

Thanks for the Travelmaster tip! Just booked. It works out about half the price of the petrol we'd use to go up and down.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118862335#Comment_118862335

I'd say it will be at the other end where they have longitude

endainoz · 31-03-2022 11:06pm

Busy couple of days for the venue with guns n roses there the following day.

Shedite27 · 01-04-2022 12:36pm

Are Gold Circle sold out? Were they available yesterday?

PTH2009 · 01-04-2022 2:31pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118865439#Comment_118865439

Some up now

Ticketmaster sent out an email yesterday saying they will be another email sent to holders with seated tickets. Got a refund on my ticket easy enough and bought a gold circle ticket

Actually makes more sense, saves the hospitality and security having to set up in 2 separate venues and makes it easier to roster staff.

endainoz · 01-04-2022 3:17pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118866147#Comment_118866147

Yeah and you'd imagine they'd use the same stage setup and commercial stall etc.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118866400#Comment_118866400

Exactly, just from the perspective of a security company, if the stage is set up in 2 venues, that's a lot of moving parts and some poor supervisor is pulling a 60 hour shift racing around, at least one venue you know you need this many people from this time to this time. Job done.
