Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Anarchy and Ticket master what a combination. Rock on lads!
AFA stands for Anti Fascist Action,which means people against politicians using the race card to stir needless shit are welcome.This has nought to do with anarchy,though AFA is very left wing,working class group.
If they use ticket master to sell their stuff,so what?Temple Bar Music center is a big venue,MCD/Ticket master run it,Angelic Upstarts,Runnin' Riot,and Skint are fucking deadly music,money will be made.If you are so worried about them using ticket master(you probably think Barry from Skint should grow his hair long,wear tea tree oil,and hemp sandles)keep it to yourself,don't drag everyone else on a downer with you.Fucks sake,Hell is other people,that is,people like you.Write smart snidy articles for the Evening Herald or something.
Even though it is a big gig and in Temple Bar (so an expensive venue) the price of 13.50 look very fair for a gig with 3 bands (two of them not from Dublin). Seems AFA are aware of not ripping off fans who may not have a lot of money. I suppose Mr T(it) thinks it should be in a hayshed in Roscommon or somewhere.
Look at this Witness crap, 60e for 1 day ticket, before they even rip you off to get there. Not that I would go. Most gigs are about 20e at least.
I'll go along and will encourage others to as well.
