10 day countdown...COMMENCE

So...
NO STOPPING
...ehm...NO FILTER pt DEUX...starts in 10 days...

I am very excited for various reasons...I have never been to Ireland...so there's that...and of course everything that comes with seeing a band like The Rolling Stones.


I am also excited to see many familiar faces I have net along the way in various cities and on various tours...This will be my only show on this tour...and unless the rumors of US 2019 come, this can be my last show...


So...WHO IS GOING TO WHAT SHOWS ?!?


(Let me know if you will be in DUBLIN for opening night!!)

Today's rehearsals include  (thanks to various sources on IORR and via facebook for info):

1. Bitch
2. Hate To See You Go
3. Dancing With Mr. D
4. Neighbours
5. Monkey Man
6. Angie
7. Wild Horses
8. Paint It Black
9. Gimme Shelter
10. Just Your Fool
11. Ride 'Em on Down
12. The Worst
13. Slippin' Away

Pretty good. Whether thats the running order for Thursday I dont know, but its certainly an opening trio of songs that no one could have predicted.

No chance. If they start at that time, the gig will be over in broad daylight.  It doesnt get dark in Dublin until about 9.15 pm.

The show has a curfew for 11 pm. I'd expect the Stones to be onstage around 8.30.  Certainly no earlier than 8 pm.

You'd think they'd give you the address on that website!

Just googled it, and its

11 Townsend St, Dublin 2,

Very apt name for the pub considering our favourite band's longevity!

8 minute walk from Connolly Station.
23-25  minute walk to Croke Park depending on route

Box office Collection Info (via Ticketmaster.ie)

The Ticketmaster Box Office is located opposite Gill's Pub on the junction of the North Circular Road and Russell St.

The North Circular Road is at the Canal End side of Croke Park. Please refer to the Ticketmaster Box Office Directions Map located with the Seating Chart Maps.


This Gills Pub referred to above is the nearest pub to the stadium and is on the route to the stadium from Townsend Street. Its about a two minute walk from the stadium.
