    Just looking at Noel's setlists recently - why on earth has he dropped The Importance Of Being Idle? Don't Look Back In Anger aside, it's the biggest Oasis hit Noel sings lead on and is epic live. Had he replaced it with The Masterplan than fine but he appears to have just taken it out.

    How much are pints in there usually do we know? I know these places are never cheap but with some people in there for 7 hours it's surely not too unreasonable...

    If you were heading Southbound, take the turn off for Firhouse / Knocklyon and swing left. It's pretty straight up to Marley from there (you have to go straight through a few roundabouts).

    Here's a map

    I'm not sure where they're going to close the roads from. I'd advise you not to drive but if you must, you could park in any of the estates as close as you can get.

    Looks like heavy rain tni from 10 onwards so wellies could be advised for leaving the grounds and definitely for people attending any of the other gigs over the weekend

    Either or. Junction 13 and you approach from the other side. Actually, there's probably more estates if you use 13.

    It's going to be difficult to park in the nearby estates. It was allowed a few years ago and the residents obviously didn't like it. Now you will find either stewards or Guards or both at the entrances and you have to produce a parking permit/residents permit to get into the estates. That is for estates along the Grange road. Not sure about elsewhere.

    There is usually parking in Marlay Park's second car park. Best bet would be to get off the M50 at the Dundrum exit and take the first left off the roundabout and the car park is usually signposted from there.

    Yep according to the Garda website, the College Road Car Park is open. Park there

    I know there's parking in Three Rock Rovers hockey club which is next to the entrance to Marley, not sure how much it is but if you're driving get off the M50 at junction 13 and follow the Brehonfield road.

    I see Marathon Travel have pulled a fast one at the last minute and are forcing people to buy return tickets for €10 rather than have the option of a single ticket to the gig for a €5. Rip Off Ireland still alive and well.

    The security is crazy here. Plastic bags handed out at entrance and into them the contents of your pockets must go. Patted down, metal detection employed and strip search tent for the unlucky ones who look like they buy their clothes in Unique and footwear in Simon Harts.

    Safe I feel, good to be treated like we were about to board a flight to Washington wearing Al Qaeda t-shirts.

    No Guinness for purchase, only Heinekan but there is a Superquinn Sausage stall, so eh .. lose / win, or something and we got some pit passes too, so not so bad.

    Everyone we speak with seems to be here for Noel, so could be a half empty pit to greet the handsome lads at the end who sing those songs the commercials are always sampling :)

    From what a mate just tweeted, having few cans in peace is near impossible.

    Very true even near the place, I live very close by and was over at the shops a little while ago, people walking along the road with cans in hand are being stopping and having them taken off them, garda vans driving up and down literally jumping out and pouncing :D

    They were not kids either late 20's early 30's , I live here and would have no issue with some one having a beer on the way in given the cost of the pee pee inside, just the mess left form the empties is a bit much, and really can't blame punters for that here as I did not see one bin on the way down grange rd.

    Don't recall ever seeing this much gardaí in the area for a gig :confused:
