Thought id get in early for the show,

Cant wait, had Bruce last week, have a bit of Jovi this week, wonder who will put on the better show,

Got My hands on GC tickets at last, im just hoping this show doesnt have to many FC members so i can get pretty damn close to the stage! this will mark my 3rd Jovi show.

so who all else is heading to the gig?? im sure ill be meeting a few of you around the GC area! how lucky are u people!

Got Dry County last time out in Croke park, thought the show overall was good, but i was 2 far back to enjoy it!, im just hoping the crowd is big for this gig, dont know how the tickets are going.

Hope you get a great show!

I think you'll find a LOT of FC members at this one.. Ireland always pulls in a lot of fans, as it is almost always one of the best shows they play over here.

I'm not going but have a friend who's concerned about the distance to the venue, is it hard to get to?
