Ya know, until today I actually thought the education system in Ireland was quite good

I'm really upset to read all the prejudiced posts about the Dublin gig - especially those about us English taking all the tickets! I love Ireland - my great grandparents moved over to Newcastle from Ireland (Cork) and I've been brought up by my dad and uncle on stories of Irelands past! I just got back from Cork last night and the people are just so fantastic, so much more relaxed and friendly than half the people I meet here! I'm getting married there next year - and spending most of my summer this year over there (any Irish PJ fans who fancy a drink during the first two weeks in August - let me know - gonna be in Cork, Clare, Kerry, Galway, Donegal and Dublin!)
I have never heard any comments from any Irish man or woman (except from Americans who think they're Irish!!!) against the English til today - you always get small minded ignorant muppets wherever you go I guess! I'm so looking forward to the show and I'm sure 99.9% of the Irish fans are chuffed we're going over for a visit!

Sorry - rant over!

Hey dunkman - can I order 2 badges too?!?!?

I've had a thought - I remember a few people mentioned the fact that we should have got tshirts made for the Astoria gig - I might know someone who could make us professional tshirts up with whatever we wanted on em - I dunno - Astoria Crew in Dublin - or whatever! We're huge fans of the Newcastle Vipers and the guy who makes their shirts and the merch is a local bloke and fan who I can contact via the forum - might be able to get him produce us something - if enough of us wanted em and at a cost of say a tenner! Let me know your thoughts and I'll pm him via the hockey forum!

Anyway there are fucking assholes everywhere. I somehow doubt any of those who were bitching are old enough to be allowed go to the gig anyway. Besides, any proper fan would have done absolutely everything to ensure they got tickets. Mine are safely locked away – when I collected them Saturday the guy told me there were about 80 people queuing at 11pm the night before :eek: and realistically how many people ARE travelling over????? Even if it’s up to a thousand, that leaves 7000 left. I’d rather there was no support at all.

I agree that the UK and others contigent will be a very small part of the Dublin crowd... every nation has its arseheads and unfortunately they tend to shout louder than most other people...so their derisive comments of hate usually rise to the top... but nobody should be even slightly concerned about coming to Dublin... it'll be safe

I dont think anyone is seriously thinking about racial taunting or anything as juvenile as that when we are there... there was a lot of anger on here on Saturday morning... directed mainly at English fans for some reason, and yet 96% of these "english" fans already had their tickets through the 10club pre-sale... so fuck knows what the gripe was about

thats my last comment on the issue, it was anger on the part of a very tiny minority of otherwise fantastic Irish fans on here... i'm not personally worried in the slightest about travelling to Dublin.. the Irish fans on this thread/forum have already stated their embarrassment at some of the comments...

Its going to be a fucking great time and we will all get along brilliantly... looking forward to it immensely

Can't think of a better venue... two days in Dublin, spiritual home of the great man, full of PJ fans, alcohol and a guaranteed great gig... bring it on!!

Heineken Helen · May 2006

AND ANOTHER THING: The comments in question were posted on the porch :rolleyes: . Since when do they speak for the average fan? Or for the average person from a certain country? If you post on the porch you are obligated to complain as much as possible about absolutely anything and the more obsure the complaint the better. So yas can all relax, end of story...

I didn't invite you all to my house so I could attack 8000 of yas

Has "THAT" thread been deleted? Can't see it now! Hope it has! Roll on Dublin!!!!!

wtf you doing on here on a non-work day

thing was... i read comments about people comparing it to 800 years of british rule ... i mean, for fuck sake... its a rock band playing a gig....

there is no comparison... "stealing" tickets for a PJ gig is far worse a sin

UKDave · May 2006

Yeah... can we close this subject and get on with celebrating the new album??!

dunkman · May 2006

on the badges thing... i'm getting 50 done... obviously that isnt enough for everyone but i can supply print ready artwork for the badges that you email to the badge company and for £10 (P+Pfree) someone else can get another 50 if they think we'll need them..

i'm doing the badge this week sometime... Astorians can use their pre-sale password though

Lol, actually I believe they were going on about '300 years'

. I can't recall the English invading in 1706 but I'm sure my history teacher was just wrong :rolleyes:

I dunno why I'm here, lol. Just bored... and broke... so I'm here

Anyway... yes
