    Hey, just wondering by what date should all main big events/concerts finish? Or at least be a formal/intelligent opera or something and not where there is over 1000 drunk people covered in mud walking around city streets on roads. Can someone tell me please?

    Depends on the venue and any conditions that may have been laid down by the city council.

    The mud people find it hard to get taxis, so have no choice but to walk the streets like zombies.

    Not your ornery onager

    That's literally what I felt like, everyone just drunk, swinging, standing in middle of road, like some kind of dooms day.

    Not quite sure what you are getting at. If you were actually serious and interested in something more "formal," you'd know Phantom of The Opera opened last week down at the Bord Gais Theatre and is running until the August Bank Holiday.

    By saying that, I mean where people would actually come:
    Clean, sober, fully dresed at night time and not dirty, half naked, drunk, careless on streets.

    have you actually looked in fairness. The concert hall would be a good place to look at (www.nch.ie), BGE Theatre as mentioned has the Phantom of the Opera. The Gaiety is running Riverdance from end of this month.

    What are you actually asking?

    There are plenty of well-behaved gigs of all types of music going on all the time.

    Avoiding outdoor mud-pit/drunken debacles is very easy but if you're looking for a date when they'll stop I'd say Oct 3rd 2022.

    And you were expecting this at an event with Snoop Dogg and some dance/rave/whatever group?

    Seriously, you're trying to pull legs here aren't ya?

    GIG'S FORUM.

    And I wouldn't bother the moderators over there by moving this thread.
