    Thats a gouge, they can **** off.

    Even if a second night was announced i wouldnt bother trying.

    Saw Slash and the Conspirators Monday night for €39, and a strained and decrepit Fleetwood Mac are not worth triple that.

    Got two tickets, block E but had to pay for those stupid tickets with a "gift" and "vip entrance". €460 for 2 tickets.
    Ah well, I guess they are one of those bands you may never see live again.

    No doubt they will announce a 2nd show and I will feel rightly stupid for forking out that money.

    Anyone get a ticket other than standing, Block A, G or GA?

    I got two seated tickets in block P for 75 each.

    did anyone manage to get the cheaper tickets? i was on tm at 3 seconds past 9 this morning, couldn't get anything!! anyone reckon there'll be another date added?
    got 2 for €55 but realised they were in seats 3 and 4 in block H, so right at the side.
    went out, tried again and there was only €130 left it seems, so didn't bother.
    not that fussed to be honest.

    if they add another night i'll try for the cheaper tickets, but if not, hopefully (despite Mick's denials), they'll be at Glastonbury.

    if not, then meh. i'd like to see them but not for €130 a ticket.

    they've added 2 new London shows for Monday 22nd June, and Wednesday 24th June.

    if we get an extra night, it will be the Friday.

    Great live - saw them a couple of years ago without Chrisine - however I was offered 2 standing at 129.50 + 6.50 booking for seats on the far right at the very back - you could not get worse - how are they getting away with advertising from 55 etc - anyway declined them - that's just rip off territory


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,033 ✭✭✭xpletiv


    And sold out. Thats mental. I think that some people must have too much money... in what way can you charge 129 for a ticket :/... the 55 euro tickets were a joke.

    Unfortunately older people have bit more cash. The oldies can always charge more and get away with it.
    I think the venue and promoter are factors too. You rarely see standing tickets in the Point for less than €70 or €80

    They advertise these types of big gigs as being priced "from...", and in the 3Arena, the least expensive tickets are usually the back rows of the seated blocks on the extreme right and left of the upper seated blocks, H and P.

    The standing tickets are usually priced in between the lest expensive seated tickets and the most expensive seated tickets.

    I got offered tickets in Block P for €130, I said no way. Saw them last September and while they were good and I'd love to see them again the ticketing arrangements seemed all over the place this time.

    Pretty sure for the gig last September I got 2 tickets centrally located near the stage for the parents for 156 (or something similar) and centrally located tickets for myself a bit further back for 120. This time it seemed like all seated tickets were 129 no matter where they were.

    The prices are such a shame. Gone up on Stubhub already for between 300 and 400 for seating ticket :O

    Extra dates announced for Birmingham and Glasgow - Manchester and Dublin must be next...


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,292 ✭✭✭SouthTippBass


    I got GA2 tickets, is that standing?

    Yep!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,292 ✭✭✭SouthTippBass


    Yep!

    Great! It's a bit confusing when you're ordering them. Looks like I got lucky! :-)

    If Peter Green ain't there then I aint gonna be there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 79 ✭✭Dublinwon


    Shocked they didn't announce a 2nd date for this


  • Registered Users Posts: 135 ✭✭Shando316

    I hate to break it to you but Peter Green left the band 44 years ago...

    I really doubt your breaking news there!

    I presume the original poster was referring to his preference for Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac over the pop fused addition of Nicks and Buckingham in later years.

    What's the difference between GA1 and GA2?

    No difference, I believe they are codes for scanning purposes.

    Logged on at 9 to buy tickets got two for 190! Thought feck that, 110 for 2 is fine, 150 for two is ok but over 90 quid each, eh no thanks. I'll probably regret it in a while, but as someone said when slash was on on Monday for 40 quid, it's hard to justify spending more than twice that for fleetwod Mac.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 32,865 ✭✭✭✭MagicMarker


    Massive lol to people spending 400 on a couple of tickets. Does that include Vaseline?


  • Registered Users Posts: 38,413 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Got one of the 75 euro tickets dis morning

    Better than spending 136 on a ticket

    Now to start listening to some more of fleetwood mac lol

    it is rubbish that you can buy 8 tickets. Should definitely not be more than 4..
