Exclamation Marc · 17-09-2021 9:19am #1

Seeing as Elton has now rescheduled his Dublin gigs, might be useful to start a 2023 thread as others might start popping up.

The Commitments - 7th - 19th February (Olympia Theatre)

Elton John - 28th/29th March (3Arena)

maybe it might make a stop here IF this is true but massive grains of salt needs to be taken by the comments from Joe Elliott

Doubt it would come here, tbh vince Neil is awful live which is a pity because I always liked crue.

Sultans of Ping playing a 30th anniversary gig in Cork Opera House on Saturday 11th February 2023 https://twitter.com/sultans_of_ping/status/1523636964968177664?t=WvaOJ6U6TeT3KImua9R4EQ&s=19

Eod100 · 23-05-2022 9:08pm

Wonder who this could be?! Rte presenter teasing biggest concert announcement of summer 2023 tomorrow morning. He seems to be a Bruce fan so going to widely speculate it could could Bruce in Slane :P https://twitter.com/michaelc_radio/status/1528841188085833729?t=EgP7PHwDLKKjiJSYK-kliA&s=19

Eod100 · 24-05-2022 6:06am

Bruce it is. Friday 5th and Sunday 7th May in the RDS. Seems gap in tour either side to play more venues here potentially. https://twitter.com/michaelc_radio/status/1528956801059799040?t=lHtBfANuWD4zowWIZ6fqdA&s=19

Looks like UK dates need to be announced too. Wonder do Munster and Cork GAA's recent comments about not having matches during the season rule out Thomond Park and Pairc Ui Caoimh as potential venues if there are more Irish gigs?

JP Liz V1 · 25-05-2022 3:34pm

I'm hoping Bruce and Coldplay for Cork

PTH2009 · 25-05-2022 4:06pm

Could Croke Park have no gigs next year ?

Slane returning. We all know who everyone wants to play there

Could The Weeknd play outdoors here Aviva or RDS ?

Metallica return

fafy · 25-05-2022 9:29pm

I’d guess The Weeknd will be Croke Park. The pricing for the U.S. gigs were off the charts btw, and seem to be all seated, but here is a different market.

Exclamation Marc · 27-05-2022 7:53am

Third night added for Bruce. Tuesday 9th May

PTH2009 · 27-05-2022 7:57am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119120488#Comment_119120488

big demand

Very possible Cork or Limerick could be added later on, didn't Ed Sheeran announce Croke Park gigs first and then added the others weeks later ?

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119120503#Comment_119120503

Wrong as usual, the country gigs were announced first, Dublin later that same week.

Early mornings aren't for everyone, go back to bed.

Would be great if there's a Cork gig but think GAA might have ruled it out and Munster ruling out Thomond if concert is during season. Would think concerts have been planned for a while and their statements were fairly recent.

You're the one provoking it all

Every bloody thread you're on bullying me about this and that and how mighty you are and how stupid i am

Its really frustrating me and that's your aim no doubt

hynesie08 · 27-05-2022 8:45am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119120591#Comment_119120591

There's a report button if you feel my posts are bullying, I think you'll find that all i've done is challenge your toxic negativity, made up scenarios and bad advice, which is only about 92% of your posts.

You're the one who keeps mentioning me in things that have nothing to do with me, how many posts have you mentioned me in in the last week? But yeah, I'm provoking.....

I can't even discuss something without you butting in

I wish I could get everything right but I don't and I get made feel bad for it

PTH2009 · 27-05-2022 12:14pm

Sorry mods emotions got the best of me dis morning

Anyway nice to have a Bruce tour on the horizon.

Beasty · 28-05-2022 3:53pm

If no local mods about I'll just step in and comment. Hynsie08 just drop it or do not post in this thread again

PTH apologies for the hassle you received

Lets hope we get something here, cant see the Stadium Tour coming to Ireland but possibly Def Leppard supported by Poison or Joan Jett in 3Arena

PTH2009 · 30-05-2022 6:17pm

Wonder will Nowlan Park in Kilkenny host any shows next summer

Great venue and city esp if its a hot sunny day

PTH2009 · 04-06-2022 10:16pm

Pumped for this if it happens

Tickets Friday, 3+ presale tomorrow

Dreamweapon · 14-06-2022 10:30am

The Brian Jonestown Massacre playing Dublin the Academy and Belfast Limelight 2 on 9/10 February.

Black Flag are also in the Academy on 21st January.

PTH2009 · 17-06-2022 2:36pm

Could sir Paul McCartney who turns 80 this weekend do a tour with a stop here ?

He's playing for a minimum 2.5 hours on his tour so far. Some going for his age

Electric Nitwit · 17-06-2022 3:07pm

Basically sold out, only upper circle left.

Wasn't expecting that, given the last shows I went to were Whelan's and The Workman's Club, but delighted for them. Can't wait, should be a cracking night 🙂

Hopefully they will add more, think i saw them 3 times, once was in Electric Arena at EP, and it was a huge highlight that year.

Hugely underated.

PTH2009 · 26-06-2022 10:44am

'INCOMING…..

New gig details coming Monday @10AM.

www.overdrive.ie'

My guess is possibly a Def Leppard UK/Euro tour

Irish Aris · 26-06-2022 11:42am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119251554#Comment_119251554

I think Pet Shop Boys also announce new dates on Monday.

Edit: just realised overdrive is focused on rock/metal.

PTH2009 · 26-06-2022 7:10pm

Hollywood Vampires announced a few European dates for next summer

Possibly them announcing more dates with a Dublin show included

Half capacity 3Arena should be enough for them.

Furious-Red · 26-06-2022 7:46pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119254065#Comment_119254065

Would they have much of a following over here?

Not sure fully but imagine the names would attract particularly Depp

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119251806#Comment_119251806

Foggy Notions announcing at 10 so that could be PSB

https://www.nova.ie/def-leppard-to-embark-on-european-stadium-tour-next-summer-220656/

Dublin is mentioned and hopefully it's the US stadium tour lineup

Wait and see I suppose

Beasty · 27-06-2022 5:00pm

Hollywood Vampires cancelled a European Tour last year. They only had 3 dates in the UK. I suspect they will try and mirror what they were doing then (I had a ticket for Leeds, with Birmingham and London being the other two dates - basically big indoor arenas, but one in the North, one in the Midland and one in London.)

jcon · 29-06-2022 4:11pm

That would be epic

PTH2009 · 29-06-2022 4:31pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119267892#Comment_119267892

Yeah it would be, saw Leppard a few times and Crue once but never Poison, from the reviews of the tour so far Poison are getting great praise for their performances

Hope im wrong but maybe Leppard will do some Arena dates alongside stadium shows in bigger markets. Dublin could only get the Arena show
