    lol,I think ye missed the irony in my post .

    Noel Gallagher quotes on Phil Collins

    "People f*cking hate ***** like Phil Collins, and if they don't — they f*cking should"

    "Why did he sell so many records in the '80s? I mean, f*cking hell"

    "Vote Labour. If you don't and the Tories get in, Phil Collins is threatening to come back from Switzerland and live here — and none of us want that." (on the 2005 General election"

    "You can't kill the anti-Christ"

    ""Phil Collins knows he can't say anything about me because I'm the ****ing bollocks and that's the thing that does his head in, and the fact that he's bald."

    Besides the song from Frozen and some from Wicked, would she have a big back catalogue of songs?

    When she was in the Bórd Gáis recently she sang a lot of Broadway hits. She has some of her own albums too with original songs. Her Dublin show sold out in minutes-can't see it being that swift here but you never know!

    Just had a quick look there ,tickets are 76 euro plus fees !
    Ridiculous price ,I thought it would be about half that.

    Most of the acts playing the Marquee this year would be better suited to the Opera House

    I think people saying the Opera House would be underestimating her appeal quite a bit, and while I agree the tickets are in the high side, she's hugely popular stateside and I can see the same here. It's a bit of a coup to get her here instead of Dublin on her world tour, unless a date will be added there as well.

    I've heard great reports from the prev show in Electric Picnic.
    Think it would be a good gig

    Is there anywhere you can look to see the set list of songs Jenny Greene would play?

    Trust me lads, its soo worth going to Jenny Greene and the Orchestra!! I was at the gig in Dublin in November, and it'll just blow you away. Its 2 hours of proper 90's 'choons', but its so odd to get your head around the fact that its a full concert orchestra right in front of you making the music. Did notice in the 3 Arena is was very much an older crowd than I was expecting at it, but I suppose the music is all 20 years old anyway. Great expierience!

    no idea what she does in all this apart from pushing a button here and there, and its an idea thats been done, much better by others and before she ever thought of it.

    Each to their own and all that but I have no respect for Jennys effort tbh.

    The prices for LATM are ridiculously expensive

    Would this sound well in the tent?

    but this isn't fully true, it's a set of decks at the back that's producing the music while the orchestra provide a few strings and some other accompaniments really. Pete Tong did it properly but now RTE have realised it's a nice earner for them so they are flogging it.

    I love a good 90s rave as much as the next balding 40 year old but I'll give this a miss.

    I'll be heading to the 90's concert orchestra gig if I can get tickets. I don't think €50 is overly pricey tbh however this may be my first time going to the Marquee so I'm okay with paying a little extra for a first time gig I guess.

    They seem to be increasing the ticket prices of gigs there because Nathan Carters tickets cost more this time then when he played there last year. The Artists don't play as long in the Marquee so that should reflect the price. Elton Johns tickets are really expensive.

    artists typically set the prices and if they see that people are willing to pay the prices then they will happily charge it.

    Bryan Adams (July 11) and Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul (June 22) added today.

    The latter is a solo project from Steven Van Zandt, with this gig billed as an Irish exclusive.

    Can't say there's much drawing my eye this year tbh! Could be the first one in about 6 years I have skipped entirely.
