    Id say if you see who is also playing Reading and Leeds since they pro will be announced in the next 20 mins or so. What about Billy Talent since they are playing with them in Germany around the same time.

    To whoever suggested you me at six could be support, I don't think that's gonna happen.
    They supported paramore in December, played their own show here last night, and announced they'd be back around December.
    I think that's enough times for a year...

    I'm hoping for someone well known :)
    paramore are under them at reading/Leeds...but they're supporting green day so I guess that rules them out.

    It's just "Priority Tickets" - it only represents about 10% - 15% of the total tickets available.

    Know the feeling ;)

    It's like we all know we'll get a ticket as long as we get it early, but still the fear of not getting one :eek:

    I actually do think I would cry :o

    Billy talent are also playing reading & leeds, so maybe them.

    I hope it's NOFX, they're playing r & l too, but don't really think they would

    Ofcourse you will. Blink aren't that popular here, plus with no new material/album promo, be easy to get a ticket:)

    A V A - your grammar and punctuation are giving me a serious headache.. I'm not usually a grammar nazi but c'mon, use your full keyboard!

    Any Blink fans I've meet in the last few years have been quite young (18 or under).. they really gained a lot of new fans (although quite young fan-base) around the time of "Blink 182" and their subsequent break-up but for someone who first got into them between the release of 'Dude Ranch' and 'Enema of The State', I honestly do think the concert will be full of a largely young "new fanbase" as I think most people around my age who listened to them probably have grown out of the appeal of the band. They are quite poppy - but in saying that, "Blink 182" was a fantastic album and a real grown-up mature album. I'm hoping the new album will be more of the same!

    Myself and a few friends are simply going for the craic and we listened to them religiously when we were younger, and I had a ticket for the gig which was cancelled due to Tom throwing out his back. I probably haven't listened to any of their material in 2 - 3 years.. although listening to songs like 'Going Away To College' and 'Dammit' today did get me a bit pumped.

    It's going to be a very young crowd.. I'd be suprised if it sells out!

    With Paramore supporting Green Day, I nearly say Weezer are favourites for a support slot. If not, Weezer for their own show:D

    If it's a really young crowd, it's going to make standing absolute hell if you want to be close. Although, there's no way I'm sitting. I might be considered one of the young ones though being 18, but I know lots of 14/15 year olds who love blink, so it will probably be full of them.

    I'm aiming for a few sitting tickets (albeit decent ones) for just this reason!

    Bunch of young wans hopped up on "goofballs"!

    But that might just be the 26 year old in me out-in-force!

    I reckon the days of Weezer supporting Blink are well and truly gone.. and especially not both bands for €45 a ticket!

    Unfortunately! :(

    I'm looking to line up thursday morning for some tickets. I JUST managed to secure my Flight of the Conchords tickets when lining up in St.Stephen's Green last month, so hopefully luck is on my side this time too.


    This could make or break my year. :eek:

    They're bound to play 'Aliens Exist'... I'm say practically half of EOTS will get a play!

    Christ.. aiming a bit high with those support acts. Odds are it's gonna be a fairly small band.

    I'd love to hear Carousel (but not the 'Cheshire Cat' version - the Buddha version with the really great raw sounding guitar intro.. when i say "raw", I mean "unproduced"! :D)

    Ill just get mine on the web as usual :) . Hopefully we get a decent Special Guests although we will prob get some dublin band instead. Although wouldnt mind All Time Low(i might get shot bu they have catchy songs) or Billy Talent but would seriously love Weezer.

    Yea ive a big feeling that they crowd will be really young and will have be shouting "I Love You Mark,Tom or Travis" which means it could sell out. Dont care they wont ruin the gig for me

    what with Reading/Leeds on, its likely we could get a decent enough support band. Wouldn't be expecting the likes of Weezer or JEW but Billy Talent/Lostprophets could be in for it.

    Yea would love BT or Losprophets .

    firstly YAY. i have been a fan since I was about 10/11 (19 now..excitment overload when i heard they were coming back here)

    secondly. n00bish question..how exactly do i buy tickets through the presale? i have my password and everything from o2, do i go on the o2 site at 9am to buy them or can i do it directly through the ticketmaster website?

    how many tickets do you guys reckon they will have for the standing area?

    as for support bands..if its someone like you me at six or home star runner i am going to be so p*ssed. would love to see jimmy eat world support, or maybe even taking back sunday even though i have seen them a few times. i'd settle for billy talent too. so glad paramore are supporting green day so i don't have to witness them again..seen them in 2008 they were awful live :S

    but there is a limited amount of presale tickets. there will still be well over 10,000 going on sale on thursday morning. even at that, I would be surprised if it sells out friday. Not a notion of another date, they wouldnt sell 30,000 tickets.
