Hope they get a decent rap/rnb act

Zardoz

Would be nice if Meatloaf played a gig but it looks unlikely now.

ZZ-Top are great. Sting is great but really overpriced

Didn't she recently postpone two Irish gigs from March to October due to "finishing her new album" and they couldn't be done sooner than October because she was supposedly very busy ? Seems odd.

Oleg Luzhny

JP Liz V1

Take heart, it's sold out again. Someone just posted on Toutless too, looking for a spare ticket.

Has the support for ZZ Top been announced yet?

How easy is the venue to get to and get parked near, for someone driving down on the day and who doesn't really know Cork that well to drive around?

Loads of free parking down the quays .
I usually park about 10-15 minutes away and walk down but last year I parked a few minutes away and had no traffic issues afterwards.

Elton John is playing Sunday night.
Really looking forward to seeing him live,he always puts on a great show and the recent setlists have been superb,25 songs ,2 and a half hours .

The Ben Miller Band (?), apparently

Support for Coronas tonight anyone know?

Zardoz

Good show by Elton John tonight .

That was his third night on the trot,one in France,one in Denmark and Cork tonight.6 gigs in 7 days .
His voice was a bit raw at times after such a hectic schedule but still ok.

The setlist was one of the strongest he has played in along time ,all the classics .
The sound mix was very poor though ,way too much bass, I thought my ears were going to explode at times ,the bass was vicious ,worst I have heard in years.

run_Forrest_run

how much are they charging for beer, same as last few years (was that €5)?
Is it a Guinness/Carlsberg bar still?

GavRedKing

Gotta agree, seen Elton down there 2 years ago and this years show was an improvement on that all round, he was much more energetic and up for it last night then he was the last time.

Also, the drink is still the same price, everything is 5 quid down there.

I thought the show 2 years ago was better ,the sound was much superior .
I was up near the front both times but had no ear ache the last time .
He was well up for it in 2011 too ,didnt see much difference this time ,he is a pro.
Definitely a better setlist this time though as no new album to promote.

He seems to genuinely like playing the Marquee ,its a great venue.
He has some stamina for his age .

Mars Bar

The crowd was more intense two years ago. I remember sweating buckets and asking the security guy for water. Hardly broke a sweat this time.

It was a brilliant concert though. His voice is surprisingly good for the amount of shows he has done! Had a great view down in front of the piano.

Yes crowd were definitely more restrained this time round but picked up near the end .
The stage was much higher this time .
I wasn't far behind you Mars Bar ,seemed to be a good few people from Galway there ,was a very friendly woman beside me who jumped around for the whole gig,her friend up near the front got her album autographed by Elton.

I didn't notice the stage being higher to be honest.

There was a Spanish fella and a French fella to my left and a woman from Texas behind me. We queued with a Danish guy we knew as an Elton fan on Facebook and there was a good few English people queueing early too. Very international crowd!

Cool.
Very cosmopolitan crowd ,Spanish guy on my left and Japanese guy on my right .
Great to see such a wide age range at a gig ,anyone from 12-70.
