I hate the piecemeal approach to the shows. Just announce them all and be done with it. Happens every bloody tour

Rock fans will have to fork out an average of €100 to see the Boss live in Croke Park this summer.

Ticket prices for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band were revealed this evening.

Bruce is set to play at GAA HQ on the weekend of May 27/29 as part of ‘The River Tour 2016’.

Tickets go on sale on Thursday, February 11 at 9.00am.

They are priced at  €65.45, €116 or €131 for seating and €98.50 for standing tickets.

Tickets will be limited to six per person. They will be available at all Ticketmaster outlets nationwide and online.

The concerts are expected to take place on Friday and Saturday, although a third may be added on Sunday if demand warrants it.

Leinster have fixed the Wexford v Kildare (senior football) and Dublin v Wexford (senior hurling) quarter-finals for Croke Park on Sunday, May 29 but are now facing a change of schedule.

It’s understood that the two games will be brought forward by a week to May 22, rather than putting them back to June 5. That’s unlikely to please the counties, as the fixtures were made last November and would have been factored into local club schedules.

The winners of the Dublin-Wexford hurling tie play Kilkenny in the Leinster semi-final on June 11 while the Kildare-Wexford football winners play Longford/Offaly/Westmeath in the semi-final on June 26.

Three concerts were held in Croke Park last year, without impacting on the GAA programme.

It's widely rumoured here that there will be at least two shows in Dublin on that weekend. If you remember that he sold out five shows in Ireland in 2013 (I don't know what the total attendance would have been, but probably c.200,000), then two shows in an 80,000 capacity venue wouldn't be outlandish. 

I'd rather see this show in an arena. He's going to have to work his socks off to make The River work in a stadium setting, where at least 50% of the audience will be casual listeners hoping to hear Born in the USA ten times. It will be interesting to see the results.

If this were an ordinary tour I'd have no hesitation going to two nights, but I'm on the fence about going to more than one for a show where at least 22 of the songs will be repeated. How have you guys in the US found multiple shows so far?

Great point about the stadium crowd I'm undecided about going and haven't missed a tour since 1981 but half the crowd won't know most of the songs and will just be getting p***ed and yapping

its an indoor show where the true fans would apply for tickets

plus £65 to see him in Leeds Arena now about double that is a bit steep

I really hope the rest of the shows are announced before the first go on sale!

Dream on - Milan goes on sale tomorrow!

I doubt there will be any more shows announced tonight.

Have to agree and it's not just the unfamiliar songs. Had to endure a group of girls standing next to us at Hyde Park yakking away with their backs to the stage whilst he was singing The River. I am fortunate to be able to spend my time between the UK and Australia and it was great seeing him indoors at Brisbane (the setlist certainly helped!). But unfortunately it does look like it will be stadiums. At least put us out of our misery and announce all dates... and I'm sure I'll cave in and buy tickets!

Hope Rome is that easy.

Just read the the general info for Dublin: Croke Park info

I find this point especially interesting:

-Under 14’s are not allowed on the pitch either accompanied or unaccompanied!!
