    I'm going to Belfast! Got a pair of 10c tickets yesterday, it was a bit mad! Took 23 minutes to finally get them, not as bad as it has been in the past.

    The girlfriend and I want seated tickets ideally, but I got the 10c tix because neither of us can get to a computer tomorrow for the general sale.

    So, anyone who was unlucky yesterday....would you be willing to try and get a pair of good lower tier seated tickets and then do a straight swap for my 10x tix? I'll make up the difference if they're more expensive.

    Where have you booked? I found a Travelodge near the arena that seems fairly cheap, but I need something fairly close to Belfast International Airport because that's where we'll be flying to.

    or to put it another way... how close is the venue to Belfast International...? got a flight out at 11:20 the following day and don't want to have to get up too early for a long trek to the airport, so ideally a hotel close to both would be nice... 8-)
    Oh yeah? Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts, dunces, dullards and dumbbells - and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering hayseed, you - you've had enough of me?

    tried suggesting to Aer Lingus that they change which airport they fly to Heathrow from but even mentioning Pearl Jam had no effect :roll: so Belfast International it is, I'm afraid... :D

    Ok, I've booked flights but I'm trying to find the best hotel to stay it. We're flying to Belfast International, but we get there on the day of the show at 8am in the morning, so there's no rush to get anywhere. So really we'd rather have a hotel nearer to the venue so that we don't have to go far once we've checked in and showered/eaten etc before the show.

    The cheapest seems to be Days Hotel, which is 12 miles from the airport but only 1.1 mile from the arena. It's £58 for a double room for the night.

    Has anyone found anything cheaper?

    I'm in...
    Really looking forward to it, I booked my hotel today, it's a Premier Inn. Only cost £39 for the night. I spoke to the arena and they said it's not that far away (under 1 mile) and is on routes for the airport etc :mrgreen:
    Going to book my flight later, there seems to be plenty about at the minute.

    A great city (and county for that matter) pretty much as far south from Dublin as you can go without getting your feet wet!

    There is a bus that goes from the Europa hotel bus station to Belfast International every 30 minutes (or maybe every 20 minutes - not sure). Takes about half an hour...

    any idea how the Odyssea standing area will be organized? Can we expect at least being it separated into 2 zones?

    More than likely it will be just one zone, and a very large zone at that. The arena is an Ice Hockey pitch with the stage on one of the goal ends. The entire pitch is standing, the seating is tiered all around. http://www.stadiumdb.com/images/stadium ... -arena.jpg
    The gigs I have worked there or seen there have never had a second section closer to the stage. Although thats never certain to not happen at a Pearl Jam gig.
    JUST PLAY THE F***ING NOTE!!!
