I want to be going but my bank manager is not as susceptible to sexual favours as I hoped, do people reckon the tickets will sell out soon?

Okay, must get tickets soon. What's the best place to be in Landsdowne Road? Thinking pitch?

Despite the cost of living, it's still popular

Hey Barra - will be getting a standing ticket this week - waiting to get some funds to get a ticket, but cant see it selling out too soon as the advertising has been pretty awful to be honest.

As for selling the knock ornaments - dont do it man! dont take drastic steps!!

Ha ha, I'd recommend some carrot cake with the coffee Carl, it's delish! I know what your saying about the promotion Bazza, I havn't seen any of the ads, though my sister and mother have, humm, must be some sort of female intuition?

I posted this somewhere else by mistake so just for the sake of completeness

Here's something on Humanzi: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2091-1582680,00.html
Doesn't bode well.
A friend saw Teenage Fanclub recently and said they were great.

Does anybody have a feeling if this show will sell out? I am waiting for the tour to begin to check out the set list before deciding to make the trip over from the UK.

According to the lovely lady working in ticketmaster in UCD the show is selling fairly well at the moment, although is nowhere close to being sold out due to some pretty crappy advertising (or lack of). Her prediction is that it will sell out eventually. Lansdown road holds over 40,000 people so its a risk thats maybe worth taking. Hope that helps.

Hee hee, ordered mine the other day, can't wait. The line up convinced more of my freinds to go this time, a much better mix of bands then last year.

Ha ha, hopefully I'll be able to find you this time Bazza , Darragh, give me or Bazza an e-mail if you want to meet up, I was stuck for the Chatholics with none of my 'so called' friends bothering to go, it was definitly their loose. Bazza was my rent a freind for the night, lovely guy, considering the Tourettes and facial ticks .

Don't tell me you don't recognize me Mike!!!! If I pile on the pounds and am still living with my parents aged 40, I might start to look like Drew. I'm taking a tip from a recent thread and having a colostomy bag installed, but I've heard good things about Lansdown, no half hour trips to the jacks or €5 pints.

Only messing Drew.

Two problems with the bag:

1. If it bursts - you're in the shit, (and the guy to your left).
2. If you overinflate the bag with farts - you can end up floating about above the stage and the whole thing starts to look like a Pink Floyd concert.

Just shit before you go and piss where you stand.

I'm gonna ask them to convert my posh seat into a commode.

Looking forward to boozing with you all.

Hey, I know i posted this on the Pixies Live section aswell buts its fairly slow moving compared to this. Since most of the peopel in this topic are irish, how strict are the security at Landsdowne? I'm going with some friends to the gig but im under 16. Both me and my friends will be either 15 or 16 in a couple of months when it happens but do you think theres a chance of me not getting in, or will they give me the benifit of the doubt?

It's [still] educational!
