we were told soon after they got removed that it was because no new dates were due to be announced in the near future, thats all we know.

we can all understand that, but that does not mean it is an acceptable situation, I've said it before and shall say it again, people who saved their codes have been given a big 2 fingered salute by the powers that be, i mean even the admin on the forums do not know what is happening so it looks like they got the same salute, Thanks Live Nation or whatever GUY is responsible, this ones for you two..................

 

 

I'm sure the band didn't perhaps know

Didn't know what? the size of the point depot/o2 arena/3 arena/ whatever its going to be called next arena? Of course they knew, Dublin is getting the raw end of the stick.

Am going to MSG and Dublin (if it's ever announced)

would love to hear:

Love is blindness sung by Edge.

Miss Sarajevo  (everytime I hear Bono's performance from Milan it makes the hair on my arms stand up)

One (can't listen without a tear in me eye)

The Ballad of Ronnie Drew

North and South of the River

Holy Joe

Party Girl (Trash, Trampoline and the Party Girl)

The ground beneath her feet

Glastonbury (sounds like something from Songs of Innocence)

 

 

I'm a massive U2 fan but if Bono continues with this "hands up don't shoot" nonsense,

I love U2, I love Bono, but like most Irishmen (and probably most people) he occasionally talks a load of sh ite,

 

Yeah, like 'most people' - you included! 

 

And yourself as well, we all do it.   

I'm a massive U2 fan but if Bono continues with this "hands up don't shoot" nonsense,

I love U2, I love Bono, but like most Irishmen (and probably most people) he occasionally talks a load of sh ite, I can assure you no matter what he says it would never influence my opinion on anything, whilst I understand where you are coming from (facts are facts) just because it is in the press doesn't mean its true, you should give people a bit more credit in their ability to read into a situation. we can argue all day about stats, yes more whites are killed by law enforcement officers than blacks, the other side of that fact is almost 80% of the population is white, almost 13% black, that's roughly a ratio of 6/1, so one would expect the figure for whites to be higher. As for Bono unless he is singing it's in one ear and out the other for me, as for Michael Brown what goes around comes around. I think he got what he deserved he chose his own path.

Not a nice video.

It's cutting out the scalpers selling GA tickets for 100's, seems like it's working. It's about time fans stopped get screwed over.

It does help but it does not cut out scalpers, they just buy 4 tix sell 3 at over inflated prices (assuming the demand is there) and use the mule (the person who bought the original tix) to enter with the other 3 strangers, they (the mule) doesn't have to stay for the show if they don't want, this happens wherever there is demand, I've seen it, I know people who do it and practically make a living out of it (in UK). they have networks of people they use on a regular basis.

I don't see why Ticketmaster doesn't just allow resale at face value..instead of giving people an option to choose how much they want to charge, all TM has to do is basically buy it back from the individual, then resell it for the exact same price.

to a scalper probably like i explained above. in theory it's a great plan (cc & id) but in reality it can be a nightmare.

Re-arrange the following words: OFF RIP.

FOF PIR 

I think the phone has replaced the lighter, not a fan of either.

If I lived in Ireland I'd be a little anxious that details for concerts haven't yet been released.

 

 

I do and I am

Sounds like you want answers the band hasn't even sorted out yet...

More like what other people on the forum think they might do / play.

http://www.rte.ie/ten/news/2015/0514/701164-u2-tour-too-big-for-dublin/

According to that they are deffo playing the 3arena (the name could change by then), but not the same show as therest of the tour, is that a good thing or a bad thing?,

Could be interesting if attending other venues as well ( fans I mean)

" and we all know about the Garth Brooks fiasco ! " 

indeed we do.

good oul' garth Crooks

thanks.

^^^ how did you get the picture on the forum please.

 

There's always more to the story than what is speculated. What's worse? A delayed announcement or an announcement and then cancel it?

 

As I read these posts, I just see some fans getting upset over nothing. I live in Oklahoma. You know how many times they've come here? If you want to count a bar performance back in the late 70's early 80's and 1 360 date. I'm ok with that. I just travel to see them.

 

Just mark it down, it'll be ok. Let's enjoy the start of another tour!

 

You can't compare Oklahoma and Dublin in a U2 conversation. Are you for real ?

 

yeah ya big eejit 

I think we should know more in line with the upcoming Tony Fenton / Bono interview next week

we don't.

Someone has to say it, 

Leave the wife at home.

Least it will be different to other shows, makes it worth going for that alone. Being specail shows hopefully they will have some surprises thrown in.

yeah like the dates

 

waste of an hour, learned nothing new about Dublin gigs , get your finger out U2.com

 

 

Hardly a 'waste of an hour'. Jeez. I thought it was a great interview.

We'll find out about the Dublin gigs in time, relax. We now know that Dublin won't be the same as the rest of the tour. If anything it makes my decision to go to MSG and London all the sweeter!

Dublin will be announced in time.

 

sounds like everyone is caught up in the Tony died so that makes the interview all the better, it was a waste of an hour for me.I shouldn't have to relax about the Dublin gigs, U2.com are taking the piss with the removal of codes and the no replying to peoples questions, I don't remember having to wait to hand over my subscription, ever, any year. I too am going to msg but I saved my code for a Dublin gig and the frustration is unnecessary and it is fueled by the silence from official channels on here, At the end of the day U2.com as a business they don't give a shite about any of us after they get the subs.

lnik  to what? today fm schedule is all i get

Feels like 2 fingers to the home fans to me, not best impressed.

March? more than 4 months to finalise a date/gig?? strange.

I'm thinking it has to be the o2 (the point) in Dublin. I'm also thinking the band are waiting until Feb to put tickets on sale so that folks have money in their pockets again. They would have received huge criticism at home here in Ireland if they went on sale in the run up to Christmas. Mind you, it seems everything the lads do gets criticised at home 

yeah most likely The Point depot, The 02, The 3 Arena, how many bloody names is this place gonna have? 

Yes first gigs are special, but not first gigs with your parents!!, my first gig was Johnny Cash I think I was 4, I can remember being on my dad's shoulders and the crowd, that is it, don't remember Johnny cash don't remember even hearing music, but then again I was 4. DD had some great stuff save a prayer & wild boys would be my faves.
