sillybegger Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 Hubby and I have tickets to Dublin concert standing,but its been a good few years since we both went to a concert so would appreciate some advice on what time should we aim to be at RDS, can we get drinks there are the loos easy to get to during the concert,how long is concert expected to be,and anything else we should know. Thanks.We would love to meet up with anyone else for drinks before the show and we are going thursday to sunday so if anyone else is staying over maybe we could meet up for a night out.If any of the younger members need help getting in just give us a shout unfortunately we are over twenty one!We are traveling from Cardiff so if anyone wants to tag along give us a shout.

Expect them to be hit the stage bout nine, although this is Axl we're talking about so who knows! 2) This might help: http://www.ticketmaster.ie/venue/198346 or http://www.rds.ie/home/index.aspx?id=193) You can get drinks there - loos quite tricky i think im not too sure.4) Im going to Gnr Friday, hoping to hit a niteclub saturday, then Metallica sunday - so can't wait for that weekend - three in a row. I think there will be some kinda meet up involving HTGTH, MyGnr and other GnR forum members, most likely in Bruxelles (not Brussells as it was laughingly spelt on HTGTH) which has a Phil Lynoytt statue outside - http://www.dublinks.ie/index.cfm/loc/11-3/...B737D38C5C7.htm. But that will be organised closer to the event. 5) Enjoy the weekend in Ireland! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see them try and tell a crowd of GN'R fans who haven't seen Axl since 1992 that the gig has to stop if it's overrunning...SG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how late he turns up is irrelevant, unfortunately. 11.30 is the latest as far as I understand!
