    O2, June 24th- on sale April 16th... surely there'll be a second (third?) night added?

    Saw him in London last year- spellbinding, jaw-dropping, life-affirming etc.- don't miss out on this people!

    There was an ad in the Sunday Times yesterday. I think tickets run from €65 to €95, limited to eight per person.

    Why do they limit tickets to 8 per person? The only person wanting 8 tickets is a tout.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,735 ✭✭✭delbertgrady


    The same thought occurred to me.

    It's up on the Hot Press site now, though it has yet to appear on MCD's.

    Just seen it on hotpress there now i wonder where u can get presale tickets for this?? There taking there time lettin people know considering its on sale this Friday and its not like hes not well known ha.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭JJ


    The presale will probably be announced here:

    http://blueroom.o2online.ie

    sometime today and they'll probably do the presale tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,134 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Thats only for stupid o2 customers though ha
    Theres usually other sites that do presale or the acts fan club or something.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭JJ


    Well check his official website then. If you want in on O2 presales but you're not an O2 customer (and you have an old mobile lying around), you can buy a €10 SIM card, pop it into the old mobile and get yourself a presale code anytime you're interested in an O2 gig.


  • Registered Users Posts: 521 ✭✭✭musicmania


    This is the best concert announcement EVER!!!! I'll be devastated if I don't get tickets. I go to alot of gigs and when I'm asked who do I want to see that I still haven't and the answer has always being Stevie! I've checked both his website and The O2 website and nothing as yet. I'm on his mailing list so If I hear anything I'll post details. There is bound to be an O2 presale. Unless it's announced today I can't see it being 'til Thursday. I also agree that 8 tickets per person is too many and can see touts snapping them up. As much as I wanna go if I don't get tickets in either the presale of the general sale I would never ever buy from a tout.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,134 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Ya its Wednesday now surely if theres gonna be any sign of ticketmaster will be today.
    Wish they would hurry up so i know how much i have to hand over Friday morning ha.
    By the way his offical site dont even have the dates for festivals up so i doubt this will appear anytime soon on there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,735 ✭✭✭delbertgrady


    Despite the ad in the Sunday Times saying it would go on sale this Friday, they may have subsequently decided to push the onsale date back, given that both Iron Maiden and Jean Michel Jarre go on sale that day, and three high profile shows going online at 9:00 could lead to total Ticketmaster meltdown.

    Ya you could be right there cause there cutting it fine here i mean really apart from odd site or blog theres no confirmed mention of this online anywhere.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,894 ✭✭✭Mr. Fancypants


    Have to see this gig :) Stevie Wonder is one of the few musicians still alive that i love that i havent seen in concert yet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 125 ✭✭Trev C


    Seems strange that neither o2, mcd (if promoting), nor ticketmaster have any mention of this. It defo have been pushed back otherwise o2 presale would have been today

    Will actually suit me much better if tickets go on sale next week as I'd be working at 9am Friday and the boss is a prick which would make it tricky! It is strange though that there is no mention of this anywhere onlne except for Hot Press. I'm gonna email MCD and ask them what the story is!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,334 ✭✭✭positivenote


    any updates on this since yesterday chaps? im unable to get to a pc in the morning so hoping its pushed back to next week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,134 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    No updates that i have seen ticketmaster still have no word of any concert for himself so guess we find out next week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 521 ✭✭✭musicmania


    No updates and can't email MCD as there is a drop down menu which lists only currently listed gigs and Stevie isn't listed as yet. However Hot Press now have a FB profile page and not the fan page. They have added me as a friend today so I'll contact them and hopefully they update us!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,110 ✭✭✭123balltv


    if it was'nt for this forum I would'nt have even known Stevie will be playing here.
    When Tina Turner was coming to Dublin she had ads in all the papers/tv etc why nothing about Stevie ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 229 ✭✭Prunty


    Anyone know what exactly is happening? It's as if Christmas morning has arrived and the presents are nonexistent - and nobody knows anything or even seems to care. Why Stevie, why?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,894 ✭✭✭Mr. Fancypants


    From what i heard from a fairly reliable source is that tickets are on sale next week. The advert in the Sunday Times said "Tickets On Sale Next Friday" but the ad itself wasnt supposed to be printed till this Sunday.
