Daily Mail doing their "research" again. Noel is 57 - I think Liam is closer to 50.


Also - has Liam started on the pharmaceuticals in earnest to prepare for next year?


I would have put him early 50s, yeah, not closer to 60.

Quote from: Trev on September 05, 2024, 06:24:27 PMYeah the band were really good that day, but the whole organisation was such a shitshow, and a weird vibe to the crowd for sure

Remember trying to get on one of the scarce buses back, people getting fucked off waiting and started throwing the barricades about. Absolutely mental crushes then to get on a bus when one eventually arrived. There was a poor woman beside me with her kid who was absolutely terrified

Never bothered going to any of the big gigs since that one

Think I was on about this here somewhere before.
Myself and a few other lads had no choice but to throw over the barricades and let the crowd onto the road there man.
We all went to the gate where Dublin bus was supposed to be picking us up and the busses were all going past full. I don't know who was on them or where they were loading them.
people kept coming and coming in from the back, nobody was leaving from the front and there was a serious crush going on, women getting taken off their feet and everything. there was a serious panic developing.
There was only one poor bastard of a foreign crowd control engineer there who was on the radio trying to get help but was being ignored.
It was a total clusterfuck and all Dublin busses fault.


This sounds like such a shit show, wasn't aware of it at the time as myself and the brother-in-law drove. Though we did spend over two hours just trying to get out of the carpark, so there was that.

An interesting video that came up on youtube the other day which goes into the details of how Ticketmaster managed to get itself into the position it is in today.

That was perfect lunchtime viewing, nice one.

Channel looks interesting too, will be checking out some other vids.

Yeah seen that the other day, good (depressing) watch.

Also further enhances how little respect I have for Pearl Jam these days.

Seems Liam is on board with most people's opinions about Fontaines DC here. To be fair, "like a shit EMF" is an amazing put down of their new look.

Liam is a tosser,  Fontaines are a great band. They're right about Oasis , fucking scum.

Bastards the lot of them, although Oasis have released one decent album unlike Fontaines who are pure muck. Their singer is even more of an insufferable cunt than Liam though, so fair play to him for that.

All of this, apart from the bit about Oasis having released a decent album.

Fair enough.  :laugh: I should have said half decent.
