    Irish gigs(especially MCD/Ticketmaster gigs) are way over priced. I prefer go see them somewher else on the tour, with the Rock Werchter Fest. my prefered option

    WOuld you pay 2 euro for Simon Cowell not to have a number one. Although, I think what can happen also, is that is it better to come second having sold 50,000 copies of an album or to come first selling 35,000. Some times a rivalry can drive up sales for both parties and Cowell will laugh all the way to the bank.

    Fortunately was able to get a ticket on Wesnesday.

    I'm really just going for the older stuff. I was very dissapointed with the self titled album and Riot Act wasnt great so I haven't yet been bothered giving the new one a go. Think I'm just into different music nowadays but I know they can certainly rock live.

    Couldn't they have played somewhere bigger like Marlay or something? Given that they are likely sell out the Point in minutes (last time I ended up paying a tout far too much such was the high demand). PJ are supposed to champion low prices for the punters but playing an undersize venue once ever 5 years doesn't help.

    Saw them in the O2 in London a few months back and they were amazing. I agree that self titled and Riot Act weren't great, but Backspacer stands up to their older stuff easily. If you haven't listened to it, do, you'll be glad you did.
