    Morrissey will play a show in Dublin, Ireland on Monday 1st December. The venue will be announced on Friday 5th September.

    http://true-to-you.net/morrissey_news_140902_03

    He mentioned earlier in the month that a date in the O2 had been arranged, so presumably that's the venue. Should be a good gig

    Had tickets to the Vicar St show a few years back but couldn't make it, so hopefully will get a ticket for this! And hopefully he actually shows up on the night too :P

    Haven't listened to the new album at all though - how is it? Not a huge fan of much of his recent stuff :/ but it's Morrissey and the possibility of hearing Smiths/early solo stuff live means that I'll want to be there.

    Yeah its a good record. Supposedly the shows of his US tour (the ones that went ahead) were great.

    Music Ireland did say they expected an O2 show from Morrisey to be announced within the coming weeks .


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 6,540 Mod ✭✭✭✭Irish Aris


    If it is meant to be the Point, probably the delay in announcing the venue might be the change in the name from O2 to 3 Arena, which was announced today.

    Not very impressed with the new album, but I haven't seen him in a while now, so I think I will be going.

    2025 gigs: Selofan, Alison Moyet, Wardruna, Gavin Friday, Orla Gartland, The Courettes, Nine Inch Nails, Rhiannon Giddens, Nova Twins

    His new album is his best in absolute years, he sounds energised and fresh again, well as energised as Morrissey can be :pac:

    Should be a great show.

    Came to post this too!!

    I also received a text and an email, both confirming that the access to priority tickets remains intact (though I reckon there will be more people that can have access to this service now).

    Do people thing that this will sell out very quickly? Ideally I would like to buy my ticket towards the end of the month but obviously I don't want to take any chances. Does anybody remember what was the case the last time he played here-I think it was the O2/3 Arena (sic), right?

  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 6,540 Mod ✭✭✭✭Irish Aris


    Tickets from 59.50, which probably means standing will be 65-70 (plus booking fees).

    yeah same here, complaining for the sake of complaining.
    Mind you, I'll probably have to postpone purchasing a ticket until the end of the month/next payday (a couple of big extra expenses during the month).

    seating you mean?


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 6,540 Mod ✭✭✭✭Irish Aris


    paulbok wrote: »

    no, I meant standing.
    Usually the cheaper tickets are the seating upper tier section.
    The lower tier sitting section is more expensive and the standing is somewhere in between or occasionally on the same price as the lower sitting section.

    Something like that, if I recall correctly.

    Great news, nothing like a Morrissey gig to look forward to.
    ****e month for cash though, pesto for a month it is.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,675 ✭✭✭HighClass


    I have a pre sale code for this if anyone wants it? Pre sale is Wenesday the 10th, joys of Three taking over the O2 :P

    Edit: Gone.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,091 ✭✭✭lc180


    Very tempted to go to this but a Monday night is putting me right off. Its a bit pricey too but I looked up the 02 London and the standing tickets are staggering 69 Pounds each before fees!

    Krakow has been on my holiday list for a long time and he's playing there a couple weeks prior to Dublin and its on a Friday night so might go for that instead.

    Still though, glad to finally get to see him live.

    That must be a Point Depot thing then, usually standing tickets are the cheapest.



    With this being a Morrisey gig, I take it he's insisted that there will be no meat sold in the arena?

    Every gig I've gone to there the standing tickets are the cheapest, when it's an all seater gig then the furthest seats from the stage are the cheapest

    I think it depends on the concert, but in most cases the standing is more expensive than the upper tier seating.
    That's the case in 3 of my 4 upcoming concerts in 3Arena (Lady Gaga, OneRepublic, Kasabian), only in Kylie Standing is the same price as upper seating.

    With prices between 60-80 euros, I'd expect 60 for the upper tier, 70 for standing, 80 for lower tier. I guess we will know for sure on Wednesday.
    Between ticket, transportation (from Drogheda) and merchandise, I am looking for at least 100 euro.

    Any more pre-sale codes going spare? I'll be your best fwend fowever.

    P.m. me if you do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,008 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Looking for a pre sale code too

    I am a 3 customer but didn't get a presale code

    What's the likelihood of it selling out quickly

    no chance of this selling out, they will probably curtain off some of the top tier


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 588 ✭✭✭cometogether


    I don't know if its impossible that this will be a sell out. His only UK date is in London so there could potentially be people coming from Scotland or the north of England to it.

    Another reason to love 3. This is the most I have ever looked forward to a monday!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,561 ✭✭✭Umaro


    I've always disliked Three for ruining the Ireland jersey with their ugly logo... but I'm really impressed with their early access tickets! Slowly winning me over.

    I'm surprised that there's people debating about whether this will sell out. The tickets I got are for my gf, but given her excitement I thought Morrissey fans would be storming their local ticketmaster on Friday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,183 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    Did people get a text regarding pre sale? I got one for Paul Simon since registering, but nothing more Morrissey!

    I won't be able to get online tomorrow or all weekend cause I'm away, will it be sold out quickly do you think? :/ its hard to know, seems like people are saying that tix will go in 10 mins and others saying that he'll not even half fill the Point, so I dont know what to think.

    A friend works in a Ticketmaster outlet so im considering asking him to get one for me tomorrow, but dont know if he'll be able to cover the cost of 2...

    I would be very surprised if this sells out tomorrow, given the day and ticket price. He would easily sell out venues like Vicar St, Olympia, etc but not the 3arena.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,008 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    most of the seated sections are sold out

    got 2 for Block D Row 32.

    The app is way better to use than the pc version of ticketmaster

    Dunno how serious it is but could be affecting a lot of his dates one way or another.

    He's been sick ALOT last few years seems like was more going on then we taught.
