GN'R in Dublin (no Motley Crue!) - Avenged Sevenfold supporting

[chineseilusions]

I think it's awesome that A7X could be supporting GN'R in Europe. Maybe when they tour the states A7X will support them there too.

I think it would be awesome if Axl joined A7X on stage for a performance of "I won't  see you tonight part 1" I could see it happening.

how are tickets selling at all these venues?

The Irish Examiner said that tickets were going fast?  The show is a long way's away, I would imagine it will be nearly a sellout by the concert date.  Can we get any information on how sales havve been for the RDS event???

bump.  Does anyone know if there will be tickets available for this show if one would have to wait until May to purchase tickets?

I heard this place seats 30,000? If so, might be ok... dunno if they'll sell that much.

Also, in North America, venues often hold blocks of tickets to release at later dates. This fucks over scalpers. In Toronto in 2002, the show was "sold out" prior to the day of the show. On the day of the show, they released the last block of tickets (one section). They did this a few weeks before the show also (another section opens up).

Of course if you're traveling, day-of tickets aren't going to help you. But you might get lucky either from the size of the venue or the way tickets are released - if it's a similar system. Might not be, I've never been across the pond.

I won't know until May, if my schedule will open up to go to the show!!  I am though very curious, as to how many tickets are left, as I wonder if they might move pretty quick with the announcement of Avenged Sevenfold on the ticket?  This place seats 30,000, and it seems that all of the seats are sold out, so how big is the lawn area?

Im sure i read somewhere when buying my tickets for this that Motley Crue were playing also?

Now i cant find anything on this apart from the other opening acts which have just been announced? Does anyone know anything else, like if motley crue are still playing, or if they pulled out or if i just seemed to imagine this?

thanks

They were originally announced to be playing, then it looks as though the promotor jumped the gun or something because it was announced it was incorrect. Not sure what happened there.

Therapy? are also playin at this. This band are from N.Ireland have been around awhile and would be popular with the locals. I think they are there to keep the older crowd happy.

therapy? are headlining the second stage. in reality it would mean that they clash with gnr. in gnr reality...

Therapy will be finished by the time GNR come on. this thing isn't as big as Download in the UK Metallica are playing two days later so they added a few extra bands and called it a festival. Theres a day in between with no bands playing that makes it two seperate concerts in my book.
