You think someone's salary should be directly linked to the hours worked? How many hours do you think she should have to work?

(I have no idea what she earns or how many hours she works and wouldn't cross the road to see her perform - just thought it was a very odd comment to make)

Kris Kristofferson and The Strangers will take to the stage on 23rd of June

We all have tastes but I made the mistake of seeing this 2 years ago and it was the worst event I ever seen.No way would I call it a concert.

I might as well of been in my bedroom pressing play as Jenny does nothing but press a button.

Gemma Sugrue has a great voice but doesn't sing enough and the Orchestra are very talented alright.

€50 to see this event is an absolute joke!!!

Isn't there a 50% chance Lauryn Hill won't show up or be 10 hours late supposed to a bit tapped.

And loves Caucasians :eek:

what the hell!

What are ticket sales like for the Marquee this year? Has anything sold out? Can't say that there's any major acts there this year. Or are they focusing on a different audience?

Urban myth. Similar false rumour was spread about Tommy Hilfiger.

Versatile has sold out on June 21 but that's it as far as I know.

Full listings so far:

June 8: Aslan
June 14: Nathan Carter
June 15: Toto
June 21: Versatile [SOLD OUT]
June 22: One Day Festival
June 23: Kris Kristofferson & the Strangers
June 27: The Academic
June 28: Jenny Greene
July 3: Tash Sultana
July 4: Tommy Tiernan
July 6: Christy Moore
July 7: David Gray

It is a poor list IMO but I wouldn't say LATM is focusing on a different audience judging by this. Repeat acts - Christy Moore, Tommy Tiernan, Kris Kristofferson, Nathan Carter, Jenny Greene and Aslan have been there before, and David Gray, Toto and the Academic very much fit the bill of legacy acts and Irish chart acts. I don't know anything about Tash Sultana, so I don't know where she fits, and the Versatile thing is baffling but it is probably no coincidence that its the day that many Leaving Certs will be finishing up.

If the Coronas, Walking on Cars, Liam Gallagher and Hozier were added to that list (if the Independent Park gigs weren't happening and they were snapped up by Aiken, I mean), then it wouldn't look unusual in the context of most other years at LATM. There's nothing there that I'd be rushing out for but that's not unusual really.

The question now is whether or not they add another 4 or 5 to fill it out and, if so, who those would be in the absence of the Coronas, etc, or will it just be a slightly lighter schedule as the ones they'd normally go to are booked up elsewhere.

I dunno if Picture This are in Ireland this summer but it wouldn't be a surprise to see them added for 2 or 3 gigs really and I'd hope for one or two alternative rock/indie acts, but I'm not expecting it. There was also a rumour that Villagers were playing at LATM this year either before or after the Iveagh Gardens show but surely that would've been announced by now given the other Irish gigs he's playing.

Agreed. Nothing there I'd go to even if the tickets were being given out for free!

That is bleak... Is jenny Greene the dj that plays songs and not much else?

If they were playing in my back garden, i'd close the windows and draw the curtains

It's the worst LATM line up I can remember.

Another announcement here. https://twitter.com/aikenpromotions/status/1098524247692066817?s=19

Ah here! BROS! This line up is abysmal....

GavRedKing

I think we've reached peak saturation for LATM.

I think they'll struggle with ticket sales this year more than any other.

There was an obscene amount of freebies floating around the last 2 years.

Looks like MCD has picked up a lot of acts you'd have expected to see at LATM, Coronas, Walking On Cars, Hozier etc. Know LATM has been sold but think they were hoping to have another few after this year before development on site.

If this was all they could muster for 2019, they may as well have called it off entirely. Dreadful stuff!

Ya, theres usually one or two I'd consider going to but theres nothing down there interesting or hasnt been there before multiple times.

Cherry_Cola

Meanwhile the refurbed Cypress Ave bringing in more interesting acts which is great to see! Less Than Jake in Cork

I do not think they are playing Cork at all this year, they kinda hinted at a big Cork show next year so maybe PUC or IP

Rfrip

First time in a long time not going to any marquee gig this year. Line up is actually laughable now with the bros addition tbh

mean gene

All the gigs in that egg chasing ground in the hane be perfect for the marquee -ya the marquee is pathetic this year
