Fucking delighted. 
serves the arrogant cunts right
All 5 cancelled. Mugged off good and proper.
Anyone who is against these concerts is against Ireland.
The official statement reads as follows:"It is with great regret that Aiken Promotions today announce that the five concert Garth Brooks Comeback Special Event at Croke Park has been cancelled. No concerts will take place. The ticket return process will be outlined tomorrow. Aiken Promotions have exhausted all avenues regarding the staging of this event. We are very disappointed for the 400,000 fans who purchased tickets for The Garth Brooks Comeback Special Event."There’s also been a statement issued by Ticketmaster Ireland.“We are working on a plan to make the cancellation process as simple and convenient as possible for customers,” they say. “However the scale of this operation is unprecedented in the Irish entertainment industry and therefore we would ask customers to continue to be patient while we finalise our plan. Full details of the plan will be published tomorrow.” - See more at: http://www.hotpress.com/Garth-Brooks/news/Its-official-all-Garth-Brooks-shows-cancelled/11878371.html#sthash.Na7b4LmE.dpuf
Great news. 400,000 mugs… epic.
Perhaps. But it is a great day for music.
Stay out of this old man, this is bigger than music.
Power to the people.
The minority win out. Ireland will stay in recession. The idiots have taken over the asylum.
Wranglers, Budweiser, Denny, Tayto, Carrolls Stores, Rothmans and Pink Schnack all issue profit warnings.
How was Ireland benefiting from this Dublin event, mate?
20% of the Garth Brooks tickets sold, were sold to people outside Ireland. These people have destroyed this country’s greatest hope of salvation. There can be no way back from this.
How the fuck am I going to offload 50,000 Stetsons 
Who will get their money back. It’s the hotels, restaurants, pubs, GAA, Aiken Promotions etc who have been mugged off.
By people spending money mate.
The narrowmindedness of these people is staggering. They are why this country will never reach its potential sadly. They will alway drag down those of us who wish to fly.
Oh no what have they done?
I bet Brian Cowen is thinking why didn’t I just get Garth Brooks to play a few concerts when the banks were in trouble, he could have solved all the countries problems.

Is there something wrong with the hospitality sector getting a boost?
It was pure greed on behalf of Brooks, Aiken and the GAA. The profit from three concerts evidently wasn’t enough. No sympathy for them.
Trying to railroad through 8 concerts in a year when agreement is in place for only 3. Well done to the residents for standing up for themselves.
Brooks trying to dictate policy to Dublin City Council ffs. Good riddance.
Were the hurling quarter finals being moved to facilitate this? Will they be moved back now?
