Send In The Clowns…

Heard from a couple of mates and even one randomer serving me a sandwich today about the shananigans (great word and a highly underused one!) at last night’s Barbra Streisand gig. As a former resident of Celbridge I did wonder how they were going to fit 17,000 people through the village (fitting an extra 17 cars through there at a busy time is a stretch) and it does all seem to have gotten a bit messy.

Went online to look at news sites to see if I could get a bit more but, as usual, all there was were the usual “we’ve been sent a press release and we’re damned if we’re going to chase it up cause it’s a Sunday” pieces. In situations like this where do you look for the actual info? Why blogs of course gentle reader. Dermod has a first hand experience or two HERE.

Of course the cruel part of me is gently suggesting that anyone rich/foolish enough to pay anything between €200 and €1000 (or even much more for corporate hospitality) for 2 tickets to see any gig shy of a resurrected/zombie Beatles comeback needs their heads examined…
