Billy Idol - Nov 7th Vicar Street

Didn't see this one listed here, and it was under radar until I heard about it on one of the radio stations. Tickets went on sale this morning. Should be rather good in such a small venue.

There was a thread on it, forgot all about it. Missus grabbed me a ticket as my computer decided it wanted to update, focking nightmare! Steve Stevens & Idol, doesn't get any better. Pity Brian Tichy isn't with him anymore. Finally some rock n roll, not mincey flower folk music.

Was ill when he played back in '05 and couldn't go.

I'm as excited as a child on Christmas morning about this.

Knew a guy way back who (said he) played drums in his band.

Is Billy into Iggy Pop territory yet?

Not your ornery onager

If any of you boardies are thinking of picking up a ticket please PM me. My girlfriend surprised me last night with tickets and in turn I surprised her by telling her I had already picked up two tickets. So I have two surplus tickets. Know a refund is out of the question so before I hit toutless and the likes anyone do me a nice favour and claim them off me. Cost price or as reasonably close to cost.

Sell them on the night at face value outside the venue just to piss off the touts.

Thanks a million for posting this. It didn't seem to get any publicity and I would have missed it if it wasn't for your post!

Can't wait for the gig - never thought I would get to see him and at such a small venue too.

Also, be careful of the 'ticket insurance' charge of €4.04 that I mistakenly purchased in my haste to get tickets! That's in addition to the booking fee.

Call them (contact number on their confirmation email) and they will cancel that without any hassle.

It's sold out, but I need to buy tickets off someone. Does anybody know or want to sell their tickets?

If all else fails show up on the night and hope there's a tout or two selling tickets.

Really looking forward to this tonight.

Will there be a support act?

Any official or unoffical after parties worth attending?

Cheers.
