Very few concerts are selling out these days and the price for a good seat at this will more than likely be approx 160eu. They are 137stg in the UK. I paid 126eu in 2009 and that was before the usual charges.

According to ticketmaster the prices are going to range from €65.45 - €106.00.

That sounds reasonable enough. Front row tkts at 106.

Happy enough with the o2 just disappointed its a fully seated show. Kinda kills the atmosphere a bit.

It's the same weekend as the GAA all-Ireland football final, hotels will have a field day!

It's only right that you should
Play it the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness

To each their own but I can't see why people are so excited by this!? Theyre nowhere near as good as the Green era of Fleetwood Mac and as per usual mcd have priced it way too high

lol,
greenwood mac was a blues band , no one wants to hear that crap anymore:pac::pac::pac: .

this band is superb , the last gig in the o2 was fantastic.

Pfft the likes of jack white, brmc, black keys, etc.. would say otherwise.
The band is all right and lindsey is an incredible and unique guitarist but I think rumours is over-rated with 2 or 3 great songs mixed in with a few average ones (my opinion!). At least the original fleetwood mac were consistent.

MCD don't set the final prices, bands do.

hmm I just thought that they did after years of seeing bands come to ireland with much bigger ticket prices than when they played in other countries.

Christine showing up this time?

Dublinwon

Yes, cannot wait for this.do you think this will sell out (crystal ball jokes aside!), saw them here on the Say you Will tour here in I think 2003, they were simply amazing

delbertgrady

One particular, ahem, "specialist" radio station was stirring it up yesterday evening, attempting to suggest that Christine might be joining them on the tour. They were clearly using the online article cited above as their source. Personally, I think this is about as likely as Bob Welch joining them for a few tunes.
You can't sell a tour on the basis of the four-piece line-up - a line-up that have already undertaken several tours without her - and then announce (after the tickets have gone on sale) that Christine is joining them. That would be unprecedented. Besides, anyone who has read the recent Mojo article will know that Lindsey has no time for her, with the writer even commenting that he spoke with such vitriol about her that it shocked them.

The absolute best anyone could hope for would be that she turn up at one or two shows, but considering her dislike of flying, that's more likely to be the States (probably LA), or possibly London. A full reunion would involve a completely different fee for each show: are they seriously suggesting that Christine would join the tour after all the contracts have been signed? A five-piece band is a very different prospect to the four-piece that have played this island four times in the last ten years. She has attended shows in the past, but not joined them on stage, so I don't see why she would do so now.
Finally, a full scale reunion would mean a complete re-think of the set list, which - given the egos already on stage - would be a very delicate situation indeed, and likely to do more harm than good.

Legend! Cheers

86 is fairly pricey to stand in the O2 I think. I'm not gonna get tickets now, once it doesn't sell out straight away (which it probably will) I'll try closer to the time.

Shando316

Any idea if it's full standing or are they using that limited standing layout? 86 is ****ing expensive!

sabbath bloody sabbath

Fair play to ghost dancer for posting Pre-Sale code.
Seems I was too late though. All their offering right now are terrible seats in Block A or G for 92Euro (incl. Booking fee)
I've sat in these seats before, they really are awful. Right to the extreme side of the stage. Guess I'll be holding out until Friday

Meangadh

Yeah I had an o2 code for presale and went on at around 12 to see what I could get, no standing left on presale and the best of the €86 ones were at the back of section K, feck that.

I'll hold out til Friday and hopefully get a couple of standing- already hoping to fork out for the two Bruce gigs in Kilkenny so would rather get the cheaper ones, plus I think I'd prefer to stand anyway.

Find it very sneaky though that they obviously only off a very limited amount of standing tickets for presale so that people will feel they have to fork out for the more expensive ones.

Oh well, fingers crossed for Friday morning!

Some already on Ebay! Hate that.

That is scandalous. NO ONE should buy tickets from these opportunists.

Linguo

Was all ready for the o2 presale but the seats they were offering weren't good enough, luckily tried the MCD one at 10 and we got 8 in a row in section C so we're delighted! Were the top price though but it's gonna be worth it!

aristotle25

got tickets with the mcd presale too. The o2 presale seats where rubbish, right at the back row on the highest tier.

Got block E and about 16 rows back I think it was so happy with that. Too old for standing up at this stage

sabbath bloody sabbath

I taught you could only get a max of four? How did linguo get 8?
The MCD presale appears to have ended.

Linguo

The MCD presale allowed a max of 8 tix for some reason so we got 8 in section C which was brilliant! When I logged onto o2 presale it was a max of 4
