I got Block A which is lovely but row UU which is about 40 rows back. i was on the pc at 9 on the dot, when I was offered those tickets ,..... and they said if you want to refuse and try again... i felt i was playing Deal or no Deal.... and i thought if i say no, i may not get any lol, so I decided those were the tickets meant for me. I will bring my binoculars, but if the sound is good I am happy
I have tickets for Block A5 row K received at a Ticketmaster outlet at 9am. Within 5 minutes others standing beside were bing told it was sold out and Sunday night was on sale at approx 09.10. I thought this a bit unfair as Ticketmaster and the promoters had not advertised Sunday night (The 'Irish Times' half page advert on Thursday only referred to one night) so fans who had waited for news of this being released may be dis-appointed and others who were unaware of a second night would not have had a chance. I have a feeling that a lot of tickets have gone to touts which is unfortunate but this is difficult to control in a free market.
Really pleased I have tickets. They are expensive but that does not matter as this is such an important event in my life. Met Leonard last year in Poland and seen him perform and can't wait for a full set. Not sure about an open air venue in Ireland in June,rain is never too far away and the acoustics might be doubtful, although the setting seems very historic and ambient, so if the weather is good it could be glorious. At the end of the day just to be in the presence of LC is enough.
Must now figure out what other venues elsewhere I can get to.

You're doing it again, tinderella.
Information overload.

lets just pray for good weather now. My son was born on june 14th 23 years ago it had been a really good spring summer up until then and then poured horribly for most of the rest of the summer, however he has had many birthdays where it has been paddling pool weather, so fingers crossed that we are due on of those.
