    I reckon this will sell pretty well. It's nicely timed for the Christmas market. The loyal fans will snap up tickets when they go on sale but plenty more will be sold in the lead up to Christmas as people look for gift ideas!!

    I'd say for him not selling out the O2 would be a problem.

    He may have played Vicar Street last time, but his popularity has stepped up a notch since.

    I tried 4 times on ticketmaster at 9 and eventually got 2 for Friday at 9:20. Must have been some of the last Friday ones because it went straight through as if someone had just cancelled.

    I am on the look out for 4 more for Friday. My brother was only able to get 4 for Saturday. So if anyone is willing to swap or is selling some Friday ones let me know, thanks.

    Ed Sheeran has been one of the greatest breakthrough stories in recent years. His whirlwind story has seen the young artist rise from an independently released You Tube phenomenon to releasing the best-selling debut album of 2011, scooping numerous awards and
    scoring a string of hit singles along the way.

    TODAY Ed Sheeran has SOLD-OUT not one but TWO nights for The 02 Dublin next January.
    We will be seeing you on the 11th & 12th January Ed!

    Judging by the seating chart on Ticketmaster it's gonna be the full setup in the o2, they aren't doing Intimate Theatre or Optimum Standing. I wonder how his music is going to hold up in the place, doesn't really seem to suit, but fair play to him for selling 2 nights in the o2 and 2 nights in the Odyssey Arena.

    Lets look at this for what it really is - its amazing and strange!!

    Ed Sheeran has SOLD OUT 2 nights at the O2 (14,500 seating/standing capacity), 1 night at the Odyssey Belfast (14,000 capacity) and is well on the way to selling out a second night in Belfast.

    Lets assume the second Belfast gig does sell out between now and January. That means that he will have sold approx 57,000 tickets.

    That's more than will have attended all the major gigs in Ireland this summer (not including Westlife at Croke Park).

    More people will attend his gigs than did the Chilli Peppers at Croke Park, each of the three Phoenix Park gigs, Electric Picnic, Tennents Vital, each Marlay Park gig, Lady Gaga at the Aviva this w/e, Black Keys, Blink 182 and so on!!

    All this for a man who has one album (10-12 songs). Amazing stuff!!

    The O2 is a big big place and I wonder how his music will travel within the vast arena!!

    He was fantastic at Electric Picnic, gutted the tickets came out so quickly & I couldn't afford to buy them. I definitely think he can handle the O2, Electric Arena was packed for him (I know it's tiny in comparison) and he's really great at getting the crowd going. Very jealous of everyone going!

    It's going to be full of women with that fringe kind of swept across their face, and wearing face paint or headbands. Enough to make me break out in a rash! :)

    Dunno what any of you are talking about Ed Sheeran has plenty of music and it all suits big indoor places like the o2 he has several unreleased albums and one major Album. He is the Best solo performer of the last Ten years and deserves all his success..
