I know im a n00b and everything but i would really love to see my favourite band :D Theyre coming to ireland ... i kno that point theatre in about a wek i think tickets are still on sale... But i cant go because im too young. Is that to do with the people who are selling them or The chemical brothers manager or something?



Come To Belfast

just pretend you were 18, mate. many people do.

yeh but the problem is ...if i get knocked back im screwed for about a few hrs well atleast until its over.. that wudnt b much fun

Aw, Foxboy, what a bummer! :(



I would think the age restrictions would be *at least* partially up to the venue. The liability of having minors in the crowd would be risky, especially at a show where you know there's going to be a lot of dancing. In a controlled environment like that, the venue is liable for everyone who enters. If a minor gets hurt, it could mean big fines and big trouble.



It would be nice, though, if the venue could set up something where minors had to wear wrist bands or something, and they couldn't enter the floor area. Kind of like what Australia did a couple years back when tom_rowlands_chemical_chi saw them in Sydney (I think.) All minors were assigned seats and not allowed on the floor. A bummer for the kids who wanted to be in the thick of the crowd, but at least they got to see the show and enjoy the music.



Is there no other way you can see them? Maybe have your older brother take you to an all ages festival (finances permitting, I know it's expensive to travel)

Your problem solved:

the point depot is almways over 18's cause it has a bar and a therefore can't have underage people on the premises. as for seing the chems go to a summer festival cause you are allowed in there if you are under 18

lol that picture was well funny X-D Tell em to go to belfast

What do you mean by "too young"?

listen me old, *** it doesnt matter*** X-D if they aint playing at a club or anything.im 17, my experience of this type of thing is, if you have a ticket they dont give a fuck.



i'd say its worth a try, u neva know.cud turn out beautiful!

oops just read that.



The first time i saw them was in a club in nottingham called the bomb doing a DJ set, i was 15 then, god knows how i got in. I put it down to having a ticket, walked straight to the front and went in piece of cake, it is scary tho!



dont look at the floor, and dont look at the bouncers too muchjust talk to whoever is standing next to you, look relaxed, as if being ID'd isnt part of the equation. U shud be fine.



I think if you have a ticket, they sympathise with you because youve planned already to come and thye will totally ruin your night if they turn you away, meaning they cud be more leanient.MAYBE.



I first went to creamfields in 2003, 16, me and a mate had travelled from leicester to london (got on wrong train!) to leicester and then to liverpool, finally got their the night before, then started contemplating wot we wud do if we got ID'd, after spending �50 on a ticket and �30 on train fare, it would be gutting if we got turned away. WE WERE SHITTING OURSELVES. As it usual is we worried for nothing. the guy collecting our tickets looked younger than us!!!

At homelands last year i saw a ten year old on their parents shoulders!



The music shudnt have an age limit, but its just gutting that sometimes it works out that way.



Hope this helps u mate.

well in ireland the laws are strict as fook ur not even allowed to smoke in public places like bars restaurants n shit like that...and it says on the site ID essential.. besides i cant childish as it may sound...my mom wont let me 8O

IF they came to belfast id be able to go because its The Odessey theyd be playin at and id definately be able to see them.. I donno why they arent coming here they might aswell seein theyre in ireland

I feel for you mate!thats a real bummer. Dont worry, it will happen 1 day and when it does, it'll be the best thing ever!hopefully u wont have too long to wait.

i've heard rumors that they're in talks with the ppl from TITP and Oxegen, so u cud go to oxegen wit some of ur mates if they were confirmed.
