No mention of cancelled gig on ticketmaster or bon jovi website?

Seeing as there are refunds being offered I think it's worth keeping open so people are aware. Maybe the title could be changed?

Very poor Slane this year, not surprised they cant get rid of the tickets, they should of getting The Rolling Stones, i think i heard somewhere Led Zeppelin are getting back together for a tour next year, would be all about them for Slane next year if true.

It's going to be called the Stairlift to Heaven tour.

Because it's not cancelled.

refund sorted.
Girl on phone mentioned that a lot of people were getting refunds.
I don't think they will cancel the gig at this late stage..
Thanks all for the advice.

so....Was it bonjovi themselves that offered the refund? if so I bet they weren't banking on it being a get of jail clause for people who have had second thoughts because it's the worst slane ever!

Tickets still on sale, concert still on.

No news anywhere reputable about it being cancelled or even in doubt.

Going to be a fairly poor slane so one would reckon.

He/she is making the point that Slane is an excellent value, Dubs tend to sneer at because of their inferiority complex, and it being outside Dublin.

Imagine the boss doing slane again? now he'd sell out a few nights there!

Slane is mostly for filthy casuals who just want their big day out. It should f**k off back to the 80s

I grew up in the village and have witnessed over a dozen concerts at this stage...
Slane used to be the highlight of the year for us and a pride of place for a music lover such as myself.
The last few years though it has really lost its way... with MCD in control it's become commercialised to bits!
It was once a trophy venue to the giants of rock at one stage!! That's the key to it's success... and it's quite simply being ignored with naff bookings such as Eminem, Madonna, Kings of ****e, etc...
Time to bring the AC/DCs, Pink Floyd, even Metallica would be class to see!!

Slane's a whole lot more accessible than that place that hosts the orgy of middle class mediocrity and fedora fest, the electric picnic.
