    If you pre-order the album, you get access to a pre-sale on Tuesday.

    Can't wait for this, snow patrol always put on a fantastic show.

    Agreed , they always seem to get stick for some reason . Ive seen them 2 and a half times . Marley Park 06 was just as they were touring Eyes Open record and were brilliant. Caught them the following year at Oxegen and once again were brilliant and they seem to enjoy performing on stage which for me is a bonus. Caught a few songs of them at Oxegen 09 before heading to Pendulum and they sounded great.

    Final Straw is a whopper of an album aswell imo. Hope if they do summer shows they do their own instead of doing Oxegen again

    I saw then last time they were in the O2, at oxegen '09 and at pukkelpop last year. They've always been great imo.

    I'll never forget when they played the lightning strike in it's entirity at the O2. I think it was one of the best songs I've seen live.

    Grrr stupid O2 pre sale is supposed to start now but hasn't. (I know it's only 9.02 now but I'm in patient and have to get back to college!)

    I got 2 tickets for the gig on pre-order this morning, had to get up at 2am this morning to get them (I'm currently in Canada) and then back to sleep at up at 5am for work.

    Well worth it tho, they're awesome live, seen them 4 times already, once in Killarney, once at Marley Park, once at Oxegen and Once in New York City. They happened to be playing there when I was on holidays over there. I managed to get tickets 2rows from the front for that gig!

    Can't wait to go to this gig in Jan and see how the new album is like live!

    Didn't get a chance to log onto the MCD or O2 presale earlier and just realised all presale tickets are sold out. I ordered my RHCP tickets around 9pm on the day of the presale and had no problems. Are we expecting the remainder to sell out quickly Friday morning??????


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,778 ✭✭✭leaveiton


    ^ I was able to get some MCD presale tickets around 5.30, so they didn't sell out too quickly


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,328 ✭✭✭karaokeman


    Anyone know if this gig will sell out?

    I'm not entirely sure if I will go now or not.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27 IVIada


    Seen them the last time that they played in the o2 when White Lies were supporting. Was an excellent gig, definetly going again!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    I'd be amazed if a 2nd date isn't added for this.

    With the recent rate of no second dates at Irish gigs I wouldn't be surprised.

    Noel Gallagher's Olympia show sold out in 20 seconds didn't get a second date despite overwhelming demand.

    The RHCP too, playing the O2 in November sold in 30 seconds, few days off before their London dates but still just one.

    We'll be lucky if there's a second date so we will, but hopefully they will do a stadium show in the summer.

    Dublin and Belfast sold out in around 10 minutes.

    Extra dates just added for Dublin on the 20/01/2011 and Belfast on 24/01/2011. Tickets just gone on sale.

    Got myself four standing tickets for Dublin!!!!!

    Going on the Friday night, standing. Can't believe how quickly the Saturday sold out!

    I saw them in Barcelona (supporting U2) in 2009, thought they were brilliant live. People always put them down for some reason, but I was pleasantly surprised last time!
