Hi Folk,
Long time lurker, first time poster.
I am panicking about not making it to Kilmainham... To qualify for pre-sale, where can we get the link/password etc?
I know I'm repeating the same question as the above poster but am getting jittery about tomorrow!

God Bless Leonard Cohen and his silky smooth voice, as good as the O2 concerts and Lissadel were, they weren't a patch on Kilmainham. Here's hoping for a fine September evening.....and tickets nice and early too of course

I might have missed this, but do we know what time Paris goes on sale? Is it 9am local time?
I need to make sure I can do this subtly while at work!!
Any help on this would be great!

Thanks!
So 9am it is then, which for me in UK is 8am - so a bit of time before the working day starts.

Please help a novice technophobe - Paris is has to be (Raynauds disease, no outside venues!)
And I MUST see Leonard - not been able to since Royal Albert hall eons ago.
Someone mentioned registering on the Olympia site - is this necessary?
Will Olympia have presales? - they don't mention them.
What time in England do I have to be at my computer?

This is exciting news- Hopefully I'll be able to get tickets for Dublin. We'd already planned to go to Ireland sometime this year and this provided the final incentive to go.

Thanks for the presale hints and fingers crossed I can get tickets for my parents. They're in a panic that they won't get any

Hey guys. Veteran of Kilmainham 2008 (in the pouring rain) and O2 2009 here. Missed out on Sligo 2010 and never thought the great man would tour again. I bought tickets in 2008 in hope rather than anything else, that it wasn't just another formerly great artist cashing in on former glories. While I know the guy did have some financial problems, the show was anything but a quick earner. Nothing prepared me for what was a genuinely spiritual experience. To see a guy lay bare the ups and downs of his life on stage and still come up smiling with grace, dignity and charm was truly moving. All that plus the amazing Sharon Robinson, Webb Sisters and awesome band, made it the best show I've ever attended. Not even sitting next to two drunken women screaming moronically at the stage (until forced to stop by security) or the torrent of rain could spoil the occasion. In fact the rain made it even more special.
I hope I don't miss out on the presale. I can't really afford this but what the hell, it's worth it. God bless you Maarten, Jarkko et al.
Keep up the good work.
Simon.
