    Last few gigs were great but with Christine back on board they should be fantastic.

    Wonder will they just do another 2 or 3 3Arena shows or and outdoor show. IF they are gonna do an outdoor show wonder would they do Aviva since a lot of their fanbase would like to sit down instead of standing in a field all day

    i know Mick said that they wouldn't play Glastonbury, but that's a pretty big hole around Glastonbury weekend!

    i'd expect another Dublin show to go onsale as the first will definitely sell out.

    When are these on sale?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,065 ✭✭✭aka accounts 2010


    You can already sense major accommodation problems for those coming from outside Dublin given that its the same night as The Script at Croke Park.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,384 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Tickets should be onsale Friday. Expect them to be in the €70+ category.

    Same weekend as Body & Soul I'd say, disappointing, would loved to have gone to both.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 14,951 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red



    Can see the €55 being the very back seats . Have missed them the last 2 times they have been here and no way im missing them this time


  • Registered Users Posts: 11 unacb


    They are fantastic with Christine back - saw them this year in NYC.
    Anyone know about the seating plan for the 3 arena concert - looking at buying tix for my parents, who will want to sit down so sort of baulking at going for "best available tix" on ticketmaster.
    There seems to be a few options for the seating plan but based on previous FM concerts can anyone advise me?

    I missed them last time, will pay a ridiculous amount to see them next year, I don't care how much it costs.I can't see them doing a tour after this, seeing as they're all late 60s/early 70s.
    Really want to see Christine again-she is great live.

    This maximum of 8tickets per purchase lark is stupid.It should be max of 4.
    All I want is 1!!

    the cheapest tickets are usually the standing ones, are they not?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,163 ✭✭✭TheGoldenAges


    What's peoples expectations of this selling out fast. If they won't sell out till next week that'll be easier for me

    Last time, both gigs sold out immediately.
    Cannot see it being any different this time, worse if anything as starting prices are cheaper, plus CMcV in line up, plus only one gig so far.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,308 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    Yep, this will sell out pretty quick!

    Last time the standing tickets where in the €80 price range.

    There seems to be a new trend of standing tickets being more expensive that the upper seating in the 3 arena. I'm not a fan of it. Probably just a way to guarantee the crappy seats definitely sell well.

    This show I reckon will sell out FAST. MCD say on twitter this is for 'one night only'. Not sure I actually believe them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,308 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    Is there a pre sale?

    O2? Not 3?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,340 ✭✭✭borderlinemeath


    I saw them September last year in the O2/3arena and again with Christine in Madison Square Garden in NYC last month. The setlist isn't hugely different, (and all the intros are word for word the same) bar a few of Christines lead vocal songs, a good few from Tango in the Night and finale of Songbird. But it's still a great show. I just don't know whether I'd spend the money on the good seats (and I wouldn't be bothered with the crap seats) to essentially see the same show for the third time.

    But as somebody else said it could well be the last time...:o


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,027 ✭✭✭sunshine and showers

    Must be both!

    I guess the 55 euro are the standing price and the dearest price is the seating tickets.

    Was thinking of going but not spending 129.50 on a seated ticket

    If the standing are 55 ill jump at that but i wouldn't be surprised if there more like 70 or 80 and very back seats are 55.


  • Registered Users Posts: 38,412 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    I'd take the back seats you would get a good view from almost anywhere in the 3arena

    I'm 25 and I have never knew that the mac wrote so many songs that are so popular.
