"Saw a video compilation a lady made from her sunken garden area which isn't too far away and there were numerous men and women urinating and defecating on her property, disgraceful that residents have to put up with that carry on "that is disgraceful and anyone doing that should have to pay a hefty fine along with cleanup costs | |||

"I wonder if this is the end of croke park as a concert venue. There does seem to be a lot bad press associated these recent events " Not a hope....the biggest problem with croke park is the sound and its hard to get that right in a concrete structure However it's an infrastructure in position that just needs a stage to make it one of the biggest gig venues in Europe Unfortunately everything else that happens at concerts in there also happens at concerts in this country everywhere some people here can't enjoy themselves without getting buckets of drink into them first and then fighting,puking and pissing everywhere including over themselves and others on the pitch but blaming everyone else for the mess Wait till next year and probably coldplay will get announced and everything that went wrong will be forgotten | |||

Was talking to a few who went and loved the no supporting act and 10 finish Time" I actually have witnessed many many concerts and matches in Croke Park over the years. The fact I don't like GB is totally besides the point. Am sure his fans really enjoyed the concerts. The 5 nights were absolutely badly managed and was total chaos for the locals. My point being the disruption this particular set of concerts caused 
Hardy you can continue to love GB | |||

"I went on the first night and while I'm not going to argue the pros and cons of living near a stadium, I did witness several distasteful acts on the long walk back to any public transport, mostly by people who had imbibed way too much. If they were going to close the roads off, even to taxis, then they should have organised shuttle buses. I believe this would have got them off the streets and out of the area quickly." You'd think 'they' (organisers/GAA/cops etc.) know the in and outs of this venue by now and how to get big crowds to it and away from it in a swift and efficient way. But it doesn't seem so. Public transport infrastructure isn't bad in that area but obviously there's no outside the box thinking to deliver a big event tailored service. Anyhow with a rich music tradition and talent in this country I will never ever understand why so many Irish are mad into this American cowboy singer. | |||

"I was in Tolka Park yesterday, both set of supporters were in Fagans of Drumcondra. No problem getting into ground and most fans left the area straight after the match. There are plenty of toilets ?? in Croke Park. 5 concerts is a lot and do you have to get d*unk before going to concert. Before they redeveloped Croke Park they could have move to the Phoenix Park Racecourse, would have been a better move. Can understand the local residents been annoyed " We were on the pitch close to the front... and getting to a ladies involved walking the entire length of the pitch to the rear, through the tunnels in the building, and out the back into the carpark right next to the entrance. It took about half an hour each way not incl the queue for the actual toilet. If you're in the stands it's fine. | |||
