No idea of prices yet, hoping ticketbastard limit to 2 per person.

We went to the 2 vicar street gigs last year, and had a meet and greet wit the band, i asked Ken if they'd ever do dublin on paddy's day and fcuk boston off, he just smiled and said maybe.

I'm thinking gigs will be 3-5 and 8 - 11

Will try and get tickets for both, gig - beer - gig

Gonna be awesome

Oh hell yes

Just reading the post properly

Dropkick Murphys announce their inaugural Celtic Punk Invasion Tour, hitting the US and Europe, including a pair of shows in Dublin on March 17, 2015 — marking the first time that the band will play Ireland on St Patrick’s Day. The band will perform two shows on St. Paddy’s Day, with early evening and late concerts at Dublin’s Vicar Street venue.

I'm now thinking 19:00 - 21:00 and 23:00 - 01:00

High profile gig, first time they've not played Boston on Paddy's Day, you're gonna have a few hundred yanks flying in for it, venue holds 1,000, bands guest list will prob be around 100 per gig so total capacity is now down to 1,800 for the 2 gigs.

200 (approx) yanks coming over, they'll prob have preference for tickets so that's down to 1,500 tickets on general sale, and them idiots say you can buy 9 per person, gonna be a touts wet dream

I doubt it, didn't even sell out last time. I reckon it's fine, it'll sell out but they're not big here, it won't be crazy.

It will sell out, and on Friday, of that i have no doubt.

All DKM fans in Europe will be wanting to come, they can finally see the band live on Paddy's Day , in Dublin, without paying a fortune for a transatlantic trip

Professey Chin

Are they on sale this friday?
My card is gonna fcukin hate me with the last week >_<

Zwillinge

Yup Friday, I won't be in the country and more than likely without internet, so my friend is in charge...

She's raging she bought them Noely G tickets recently, all our cards are in pain >_<

9 tickets per person?? That's nearly a record, it's usually 6 - 8 And even then its cruel :mad:

Grr :mad::mad:

Touts will have a field day with this - i have been over to Boston for Paddies day 5 of the last 7 years for the week.

Hopefully will get sorted for guest pass of the guys but will be trying to keep as many tickets out of touts hands on Friday morning.

Stretchryan

I have made the band aware of the 9 tickets per person allowed on this, probably too late for them to change it at this late stage but i know they hate scalpers/touts.

Not a hope they will sell out 2 shows anyway

I dunno, they're a load of UK dates as well, no one from there will be travelling for this.

We'll see in 3 minutes I guess.

Professey Chin
