    Was looking on ticketmaster there. I saw one resale ticket. Almost €100. I was temped, but not going to pay that price. Just throwing this here if anyone else interested.

    why is the cynic in me suspecting its Ticketmaster drip feeding these tickets to grab the extra 12.50? 

    It's showing as Low Availability which to me suggests there are tickets going to be made available but wonder will it flip to Limited once this drip feeding of tickets finishes?

    It's a farce alright.

    I gave in and bought one, on account of nothing available on adverts, and very limited offers on toutless. I'm not going to take the chance that something would be available on day of gig.

    But its a great value gig. The Cure play for around 2.5 hours. Twilight Sad are really good too. Caught them in the Button Factory some years ago. Don't think I'll be in that early to catch them this time though.

    The Cure in Malahide was good, but it was more of a social day out for us rather than the music. I'm really looking forward the indoor arena for this one, better sounds and visuals, and more focus on the music.

    TTS sound very good and hoping I'll get in for some of the set Thursday

    Delighted I got lucky back in the summer and picked up a ticket. Seems very little tickets are available. Never know some more get released in the coming days

    absolutely TTS are brilliant. Have been a big fan of them for a while and them supporting The Cure makes this an extra brilliant gig. Hope they get to play a good 45-55min set. The Cure will be fantastic too

    Cheers. Oxygen definitely the worst i've ever seen them. A friend who's a much bigger Cure fan than me thought they were crap that night too.

    I must admit, the main reason i bought a ticket for this was i figured i'd never get another chance to see them indoors again. Should they ever return i suspect the ticket price would be more than i'm willing to pay.

    Last show til Dublin took place last night in Paris

    Setlist looked great and for the casual fan get your business done before the encore, its insane

    Some way to close out a gig alright. The final 45 mins will be monstrous. Worth the admission price alone.

    Amazed with the ticket situation for this

    You'd always expect tickets to appear on Ticketmaster closer to the gig but for this nothing appeared only a handful of 'resales'

    Definitely steeped back in the summer to pick up a ticket. Right place right time I guess

    SHould be well full alright.

    Decent amount of tickets on toutless over the past few days. But they are getting snapped up. Looks like this should be a proper sell out.

    Looking forward to it. I'm not the biggest fan - there are about 10 songs on the setlist that I had never heard before this week. Not overly impressed by most of those songs that are new to me. But one stands out - Want. Had never heard that. Belter of a tune. Also, looking forward to Pictures of you, Burn, CHarlotte Sometimes, Love song. and then the playthrough in the 2 encores - all the main hits. Will use some of the other songs for plss stops,fag breaks and drink queue.

    Just realising I haven't been to this place for a music event for three years (Bjork). Doesn't the cashless and rather expensive if memory serves bar close at 10pm or something? Might bring a sneaky hipflask in.

    With the encore you'll want to get your drinks sorted

    2 weeks ago a pint of Heineken was €6.80. Hopefully its the same and there not gone a month earlier with the price increases

    Always good to have a plan in the back of your head - will be bringing something in for sure. Queue's will be mental before the encore - that's if they even still have the bar's open at that stage.

    Really enjoyed that. Pictures of You was a highlight for me. I think the early start time caught people out. I was sitting in the aisle seat and our block didn't really settle down until 4 or 5 songs in with the people coming and going.
