Hi
i've not posted before so hello.
Just regarding ticketmaster - who are the bane of my life - have done this before regarding issuing a price range and no indication of why, where and how many prices there are. For Bob Dylan in Kilkenny there was 5 different prices

I couldnt believe it and nothing to say where each were for. This was a little puzzling for a gig on a football pitch with one stand. Anyway i've emailed them to ask for a seating plan before Friday (dunno if ill get it though). For the aforementioned gig I got a refund when I booked tickets for the wrong area on account of this so I hope they dont make the same mistake again. grrr. Sometimes the most expensive ticket is not necessarily the best.
anyway I hope we all get tickets regardless. I'd love to go with my old friend who I used to live with and listen to leonard the most I ever have! Time for the gals to get together again for what will be an amazing night i'm sure. pity it couldn't be indoors though

this does tend to be the case sometimes with ticketmaster ireland from past experience, especially with a venue thats never really been used for a seated gig before, will be interesting to see the seating arrangements
however on a brighter note a lot of people will be put off the 115 euro price tag and opt for the cheaper seats too.. hopefully leaving the "best available" seats for us!!
2 nights, according to the times(?) this venue will hold 12000 seated - not too sure of capacity but everyone that wants a ticket and is up and sitting at a PC at 9am shouldn't have a bother getting one
And its lenny, so every ticket will be a good ticket (Yes I'm quite the optimist!), just to be there will be such a great experience.
What a year for gigs in Dublin!!!!!!!

Thanks Jimmy that is sweet.... but what do i do give them all my credit card details and we all try at the same time? I am being positive. I am happy in a way that the tickets are a bit pricey, so maybe that may put some people off.

Yeah! If you trust them enough give your details!! Its worth the risk
If they're close by you can let them secure the tickets and then put your own info in manually.. I've a few people beside me with computers so the first one that gets in I'll run over to take over!!!
Then I'll buy them breakfast
Best of luck tinderella53, you seem mighty deserving of a ticket

I really hope your posting smiles here on friday
If all else fails get a lend of a wheelchair and buy a wheelchair ticket. Thats horrible. I can't believe I just wrote that.

My thoughts exactly...
although as someone else said, the ticket prices will probably keep the fairweather fans away!

Don't know what the panic is. I just bought 6 tickets for the IMMA gig on Ticketmaster in the last three minutes. No hassle, no rush, and near the front of the seated main area.
Se y'all there

You're on a wind up RP.
I'll have to wait for the Sunday tickets, anyhow.
