Posted September 13, 200816 yr It has been mentioned in the Irish Daily Star paper apparently, that Take That are going to play Croke Park next summer as part of their 2009 tour. Are you familiar with the venue Pete? Norma I'm hoping they do arenas there too though (I really can't stand stadium concerts). Was hoping they'd do the Odyssey again - if they are - I'm not going to bother with concert tickets in England - I'll be off to Belfast again. Edited September 13, 200816 yr by Norma_Snockers
September 13, 200816 yr croke park is the biggest venue in ireland and only very very big names play there like U2 here for example
September 13, 200816 yr Author croke park is the biggest venue in ireland and only very very big names play there like U2 here for example I'm pretty certain the rumour will prove to be true. I'm certain the next tour will be Take That's last - they may do another album but definitely no more tours. So I think they'll like to finish off their 'live' days with a few biggies! Norma
September 14, 200816 yr i can see them touring for another 2 albums at least and a further greatest hits tour
September 14, 200816 yr Author I honestly think this will be their last tour. And apart from Ireland and the UK - I can't see them doing any other countries. I should imagine most of the crowd for the Croke Park concert (if it is true) will be made up of their fans in Holland, Spain and Italy - as I'm not sure they've got that much of a following in Ireland have they? Norma
September 14, 200816 yr to behonest i dont know what there following is like here in ireland,there singles and albums have done well here and they great radio play so that indicates they have a great reception here and the tour did sell out the last time but inwhat time length i dont know
September 15, 200816 yr Author From what I've been reading on forums ... it looks like they're only doing stadiums next year! In that case ... I think I'll wait for the DVD! Norma
September 15, 200816 yr stadium tours are a great money earner and great for boosting album sales also
September 16, 200816 yr Author stadium tours are a great money earner and great for boosting album sales also Yeah but I've heard that the sound quality from that particular stadium is really bad. And if you can't see them the least expect good sound! Norma
September 30, 200816 yr Im sooo going to the 2009 tour! I remember New Year they were on TV at the O2 London - it was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 30, 200816 yr Author Im sooo going to the 2009 tour! I remember New Year they were on TV at the O2 London - it was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think they're just doing Stadiums this time though! Not sure I like the idea of stadiums as I said ... but I suppose it makes sense to do just 10 stadiums than another 50 arena tours. I've got a feeling they won't do any European dates this time too! Norma
September 30, 200816 yr Author Oh no its not as special in a stadium!!!!!!!! :( Well its not confirmed yet ... but I wouldn't be surprised. As soon as we hear on TTTV I'll keep you posted! Norma
September 30, 200816 yr Im hoping they will do the O2 Arena again - fingers crossed OH and this is my 4000th Post - talking about Take That - love it!!!
