The National Fucking Concert Hall. What a load fucking bollox. An all seater venue which is "Ireland's premier venue for classical music". Total fucking shite. Careful you don't tap your feet folks..... you'll be politely asked to leave. Still, maybe a G&T at the bar would be delightful. Cunts.

Not me, sadly. Jealous, dammit.

Hi there,

if anybody has tickets left I would take'em for sure. We tried to get tickets with 3 persons from 3 different locations online, no chance. FFS!

I'm embarrassed to say I got 2 tickets. By the sounds of it no one else got tickets??? Anyone?

I'd say at least 75% of the capacity of this elitist fucking shit hole was kept back from the real fans for cunts in suits who wouldn't know a MacGowan song unless it happened to mention the NYfuckinPD. Were they at the Olympia in '97 sipping their fucking cocktails and nibbling on canapés? Were they at Philip's gig?

FUCKINGCUNTFUCKS :x :x

Same as Glidrens, we will be flying from Cambridge with no tix
Having seen Shane/Pogues over 90 times around the world New York, Paris UK, Ireland ( Tipperary stadium one of favourites ) got to feel a little cheated that some corporate has my seat
Surely not the Shane's idea
Any tickets much appreciated

I managed to score 2 tickets by getting up at 5am and patiently waiting for the site to load. It crashed a few times, said tickets were sold out a few times. I just kept trying and all the sudden it popped up with two tickets. I'm psyched. Flying in from Boston, USA.

There'll be loads on sale by ticket touts for 3 times the original price in a day or two. Getting tickets for anything nowadays is a fuckin nightmare.

I wouldn't be so sure. Those who were lucky enough to get a ticket are real fans. They ain't gonna be selling.

Still very pissed off that the web technology / phone system failed so spectacularly.

I'm going to fuck off to Madrid that week instead. I'll probably spend less money there.

Well I, for one, was never going to be able to make it anyway, so here's hoping there's a live stream broadcast...
