Wheeker · 2011-10-18 14:20:05

Just heard that the original line-up of the Stone Roses are reuniting for new material & world tour! So far only announced two gigs in Manchester, June 29th & 30th. Here's hoping for a Dublin gig (not Oxegen please god). Not sure what to expect- I saw them way back in 1990 in Glasgow at their peak & it was a totally…

Pretty Much. Hole in the Wall and Comiskeys on Blackhorse Ave and the Halfway House on the Navan Road would be the 3 closest boozers to the entrance.

Just back from the Heaton Park gig... absolutely amazing, I thought Ian was sounding better than any of his solo gis I've been at , though to be honest , it was hard to hear him as the crowd were singing so loud!

Does anyone know what Clash songs we can expect from the Justice Tonight Band? I know Ian and John were onstage when they played Bankrobber but what Clash songs have they been playing regularly?

Will there be car parking for the gig in the park, or is it public transport only?
The only PP gig i was at was a big top gig and had parking.

It says on the mcd website that there is no parking for the gig and people who are driving should park in the city centre and walk to gig!

Let's hope they put on enough bars for the Dublin gig.

I didn't think any que/bar situation in the world could be done worse than Slane, but I was wrong. The crowd didn't stand for it though.

I was hoping Mick Jones would be on after Wailers too.

I wasn't too far off with my time guess, It'll be over just before 11 I'd say.

Hopefully the weather will be a bit better than today, Going by Met Eireann it will be very rainy up till about 6:00, from there it will start to clear up. So hopefully it won't be too bad.

Looks like Wellies will be needed though

That's a long old walk!

Isn't this a 45,000 capacity gig? No dedicated buses to it

Forecast doesn't look great either!

Yeh the bar was a joke, but luckily I didnt have to use it . Was at the Saturday show and had been told security was pretty lax at it, so all of us smuggled vodka in and didnt get searched once, the que for the bar was shocking.

why would you queue for an hour for a beer? Surely after 20 mins or 30 mins, you would call it a day???

I'd look at the que and just think 'feck that for a game of soldiers'. It's not worth it at all

If you've invested 20 or 30 minutes into queuing you might as well finish the job.
