Ive two bought for gold circle and two for standing using same presale code. I doubt they will be cancelled. You could only order 2 at a time though.

Anyone know if the accessible tickets will go quickly?

Impossible to say how quickly any of the tickets will go, but I'd like to think, if accessible tickets sell out, a quick phone call to ticketmaster might sort you out

Just on the golden circle, went with 2 mates last year, 2 of us had GC tickets and the 3rd had GA. 2 of us went through to GC and the girl there just looked at our tickets & gave us wrist bands and let us in, no scanning, no ripping of ticket, so we went in, waited 10 minutes, I walked out and got the 3rd mate giving him my ticket as I had a wrist band, he showed it to the girl she gave him a wrist band and let him in. Simple. These people are only working there for the day, half of them don't know what they're doing or don't care

Honestly didn't think Metallica would ever play Slane but despite the iconic venue I just couldn't be arsed making the trip there and have decided to head to Barcelona instead. Haven't missed an Irish show since '92 but I'm getting too old to be messing about with getting out of a field in meath with 70000 others .

I'd only just discovered the S&M gig when Michael Camen died.

Gold circle for Barcelona was €140, surprised at a €20 premium for Slane!!

Go to the tour section, find your date, and select fifth member option.

That should take you to the ticket master site, where you unlock the tickets you want, using your presale code.

Do ya reckon we'll get the same set up as the north American stadium tour? Like the Edmonton show. With the massive screens and the M and A on the ends. Incredible set up.

Possibly but not sure how that setup would suite Slane with the Golden Circle/GA standing etc

Interesting this, I am in a predicament over which ticket to get, my sister is buying me a ticket for my upcoming 30th birthday, and I'm going with 4 or 5 friends, and they can only afford the 99 euro tickets, no way they'll pay 159 euro. And I don't blame them, I nearly wouldn't myself, but yeah I'd love the experience of being right in front of the stage, I've seen Metallica 4 times in the past and wasn't that close to the front.

My sister offered to get me a GC ticket but I'd feel bad abandoning the couple of people I went with, so I've told my sister "Ah sure get me the 99 euro ticket"...and she was like "Are you sure? If it were me going and I was into them as much as you are, I'd want the best ticket possible" and I was like "Don't tempt me!"

Terrible this! I'll enjoy myself regardless, but man the GC ticket would be awesome, and if I got one, and my friends knew what you did with your buddy, I'd have half the bus trying to borrow my ticket in an effort to get the better experience. Bit of a headwrecker this, this whole section thing wasn't as much of a problem in Marlay Park.

I saw a mock up of the layout of the stage etc for (i think) the Estonia show and that stage was in the picture. That doesn't confirm it or anything but really considering the price we should be getting the full production

But isn't that the reason why they wouldn't do an indoor gig ?
They are doing a 'stadium'/Outdoor tour to ensure they can get the full stage production on show .

Obviously the stage design for an outdoor leg will be different to the indoor shows but I’d imagine there will be some crossover.

Remember our gig’s in early June when it won’t be fully dark till around 9:30- 9:45 so a lot of it will be in twilight so We won’t get the full effects of the production.

Nah that was BS, Muse did a similar in the round in the 3 even so could have done Belfast sure, they didn't. Set up is different.

No doubt they wanted bigger crowds and more cash but to be fair the size of the indoor production was huge. In one of the tour videos they said there were plenty of stadiums in Europe that could not take the weight.

In this one they mention that the whole cube setup is 52 tons hanging from the ceiling!!!

Listened to Through The Never today during my run. I keep forgetting how brilliant a live album it is, start to finish.
