Just seen this on thread about Cohen gig at Kilmainham. http://1heckofaguy.com/2008/06/16/the-leonard-cohen-dublin-concert-photos-and-gasp-complaints/

10,000?! See the 4th photo, wouldn't you be pissed if you were in them seats on the side. I've never seen such a gap between stage and big screen!

But like some of yas said already it probably won't be at maximum capacity.
Plus it's gotta be standing!

From looking at other venues for tour they are all about 4000/5000 so I'd say you're right about 5000.

lc180 · 24-04-2014 3:50pm

If MCD go with the Forbidden Fruit main stage configuration wouldn't that be 10,000 (festival capacity i believe) minus the 2 Marquees stages, so about 7,000 in total.

But thats just guess work.

So The Kills are the support act!

Rapid. I can't wait for this show. The Kills are pretty good live, I'm told. I've not had the pleasure to see them before.

Deffo the best headline, non-festival, show to come this year.

guest124 · 12-05-2014 8:29pm

Yeah, they're supposed to be great live! Just hoping the weather is decent for the gig. Don't want to get drenched!

Wonder will capacity be announced...

Are tickets from The Vault different than ticketmaster tickets?

Jam76 · 21-05-2014 11:29am

Ticket link from the Vault takes you to Ticketmaster ,so I don't see them being different.
The only difference with Vault tickets is you have a chance to get early entry to the gig if your fortunate enough.

lc180 · 21-05-2014 12:44pm

I wonder will any Irish bands be added to the line-up? Would be a great oppourtunity for a local rock band.

I'm not familiar with JW solo albums but was glad to see his previous setlists seems to cover tunes from all his previous work.

Jam76 · 21-05-2014 2:51pm

Yeah Jack White does a very good show,dont think anyone else will be added to the support.
Seen him a good few times both with the raconteurs ,the White Stripes and on his solo stuff.
Dont know if he is bringing both the bands with him as he has a male and female band he takes turns to play with.

Isnt the lead female singer for The Kills also in The Dead Weather? I'm guessing she'll join him for a few tunes.

Furious-Red · 22-05-2014 12:28pm

Jam76 · 22-05-2014 1:22pm

Yeah they are class,don't worry I'm sure they will be back.Read in an interview that Jack says they ain't finished due to everyone being so busy.

A V A · 24-05-2014 1:07am

Just saw Jack last night play over 2 hrs.
Absolutamazing set.

Bootsy. · 10-06-2014 6:34pm

Massively excited about The Kills. The the only one of my favourite bands I've yet to see live. Looking forward to seeing Jack White again too, always a great show.

A question for anyone who's been to the Kilmainham venue before please; what's the bar situation like, and what's the security/searching situation like?

Anyone know is there a pit for this gig?

Impossible to tell just yet, MCD haven't run any gigs in Kilmainham in quite a few years so who knows what there set-up will be like. Paul Weller and Elbow are on the nights before Jack White so probably best to just wait and hear reviews from those to get a proper idea of what to expect.

This time next week!
