Anyone want to meet up for Damien on Sunday in Dublin??
 
Heading into the Iveagh Gardens Sunday, anyone going?? Want to meet up??

carrroline 07-06-2015 04:10 PM

sure! I'm going.
I want to be at the Iveagh gardens rather early though.

lod 07-06-2015 09:13 PM

What's rather early?? I don't think it's open til 6ish??

carrroline 07-06-2015 09:33 PM

:D
i just meant, i want i good spot. (I don't have to be in the front row, but somewhere in the first 5 rows would be nice —I'm not tall, I'm flying to Dublin, I want to be able to actually see the lad ;) ) I have no idea how early I should go. Was hoping for some input from the local Eskimos :)

Moves-My-World 07-07-2015 04:40 PM

I'd love to meet a few Eskimos before the show! There are plenty of great pubs nearby. I'll message closer the time about when I'll be available. Hopefully 3/4pm :)

Yay!

i´ve been meaning to start a thread like this as i recall there are a few of us going.

maybe i´m too much of a hippie, but i thought of meeting at st. stephen´s green park and sitting on the grass, hahaha. but i could go to a pub as well, i suppose :p

caro, the iveagh gardens have a quite big spot for gigs and it´s not actually hard to get to the front. i remember when i went to see bell x1, i arrived very early and there were just a few people. very easy to find a good spot. then, i went to see glen and i arrived very close to the time of the show and it wasn´t difficult to get a great spot either ;)

as for the support act... i am thrill! and i´m keeping my fingers crossed for glen to join at some point :D

If the sun is shining (which it will be :)) this sounds perfect!

borneoman 07-08-2015 06:33 AM

maybe lining up one hour before the doors open? we can all meet and chat while being inline :D

verenita 07-08-2015 08:46 AM

i went only in 2013 but it think it´s pretty much the same every year. they have bars and food stalls at the back of the "venue". i´m sure we all can grab a beer .

a favour to ask guys, please bring the sun back! the weather is being awful over here this week.

carrroline 07-08-2015 01:21 PM

Aw, sitting on the grass in st. stephen's green sounds nice :)
(But whatever you guys decide is fine.)

Vere, I'm afraid the sun disappeared here as well. It's pouring outside. But I'll cross my fingers for Sunday ;)

borneoman 07-09-2015 07:00 AM

here in Denmark is total winter, now it was like 8oC (feels like 6oC), raining like hell, crazy wind from like the North Pole :D

what about meeting at like 3pm at St Stephens Green, can sit there for a while, then maybe move to the Iveagh Gardens to make a queue? I´d rather go for the front row :D

carrroline 07-09-2015 07:06 AM

Sounds perfect :)

verenita 07-09-2015 09:50 AM

i like the idea... but, let me tell you that once in the gardens, you won´t have any problem to reach the front row as everybody will be at the back at the bar :p
unless, there are many people from abroad, hehe.

sunshine around here today :icon_sunn :icon_sunn

Claude 07-09-2015 08:04 PM

Thanks Verenita,
I will be in Dublin too this sunday !
Can't wait...
:smiley20:

lod 07-09-2015 08:35 PM

Stephens green great but laws about drinking outdoors more strict now so it'd be paper bags!!! Not sure about weather Sunday.. Dull but warm I think. Bout 20% chance of rain so we should be okay .. And don't be slagging us Irish about enjoying a drink!! Cheers darlin'

carrroline 07-09-2015 09:15 PM

Sláinte!
See you all on Sunday :)

borneoman 07-10-2015 07:42 AM

Was at the gardens to see Tori Amos
But couldnt be front row
But maybe Damo has less hardcore fans than Tori

So meeting point St Stephens at 3 if anyone wants to join

verenita 07-10-2015 11:14 AM

we should agree on a meeting point. the arch entrance is the most common, opposite grafton street and st. stephen´s green shopping centre.

also, if you prefer to go to a pub for a pint or two, it´s fine by me. we could meet at the arch and decide once we all are there, i believe ;)

see ya all soon!

Lys 07-10-2015 08:42 PM

see you there :) I'm flying in sunday afternoon, but will throw my stuff in the airbnb and join you guys for a drink :)

lod 07-11-2015 09:37 PM

Probably won't make it at 3pm..
 
Will someone keep their phone on so I can check-in where ye are to meet up, as I Def won't make it at 3pm??? Thanks.. See everyone tomorrow... excited ! :icon_kidr

verenita 07-11-2015 09:43 PM

just pm´ed you ;)

carrroline 07-12-2015 08:56 AM

i'll be there. I'm wearing a red dress and a dark blue jacket. (At the moment... Might change later. The red dress was a bit optimistic. brrrr :) )

borneoman 07-12-2015 10:16 AM

iff weather.com says rain from 6 to 8 :( hope they´re wrong

fishwife 07-12-2015 03:57 PM

It's been ages since I was here. Woohoo, hope to see some of you guys at the gig. Anyone know what time Damien comes on? If Colm starts at say, 7.30, probably around 8.30? I was there last friday for St Vincent and the gates opened exactly at 7, a queue has formed already, got to find a space at the front as we went quite early at 6pm then power walked our way to the front barriers :) Then waited another 30 mins in the venue for the opening to start. Hope we all have good time. Ta!

lod 07-12-2015 07:24 PM

I'm here!! Where are the other Eskimos?? I'm allowed sit in the wheelchair ♿ area due to my damaged knee, so if anyone wants to come say hello!! If you going to the bar!! Where are ye located??

lod 07-12-2015 07:27 PM

If we don't meet during the gig would Def love to meet after for a chat?? And drink.. Anyone on??

lod 07-12-2015 10:21 PM

Any Eskimos still about??

carrroline 07-12-2015 11:41 PM

Ah, Lod, so sorry we missed you.
We all made it to the front row. Afterwards we were almost immediately pushed out, so we went for a drink in whelan's. I didn't check the igloo. Hope to catch you in Cork or Galway!

mikerennie 07-13-2015 12:04 AM
