***Official O2 Point Arena, Dublin 2010 Thread***

Right so, No Dublin thread yet! Thought I should get it cracking!

Tuesday March 9th 2010, DMB are back in Ireland. Last time they played here was the "old" point which held 8000. Have been in it since it was done up at the Neil Young gig. Should be a great spot to see DMB. How will they fill it tho?!!

Gonna be a great night! Any Irish Ants out there?

This will be my 21st show if I dont see one in the meantime!

Re: ***Official O2 Point Arena, Dublin 2010 Thread***

I'm a Northern Irish ant and hoping to make it Dublin and London this time round. Last time I did London and Brussels. These should be my 6th and 7th shows and I can't wait. Even the thought of travelling back up north for work on the Wed after the Dublin gig doesn't seem too bad!!

It'll also be my first gig at the new Point.

Oh and it is all happening just around my birthday, perfect timing Dave!!

Re: ***Official O2 Point Arena, Dublin 2010 Thread***

Just bought my tickets, quick question about the general seating. Why are they the cheapest tickets? Is it because we are standing? American standards would probably make them the most expensive especially if they are the closest.

Mic,

Didn't you travel to Arizona for my show this year? Now I am coming out to see ya'll!! Woohoo first trip to Ireland

Stay at the Jury's Inn in the IFSC Dublin 1. It is 10 min walk from the O2 Arena and 10min walk to centre of town where we'll all be drinking after the show!!

So some EU concerts have sold out, others like Dublin don't...anyone know of a site that tracks total sales before the event?

Yes...the time is running fast!! And yes...there is some pub in the Gate Hotel but I think it is a city center so I guess there will be a lot of other pubs around if that in the hotel is full
What kind of tickets do you have guys? Because I have standing ticket, GA...so I suppose I' ll have to get to O2 very soon in case to get close to the stage...

Re: ***Official O2 Point Arena, Dublin 2010 Thread***

i still havent booked my hotel yet- but the gate might be my choice seeing some people are already staying there.. I arrive in dublin 2/25 but i'm staying with family in county mayo until the day before the show-

can't wait to meet some of the europe ants

also any places i NEED to visit in ireland, since i'll be sight seeing for 10-11 days before the show?
