Nice shots medtrain, well done. Pity you weren't out there capturing the disgraceful situation buses were left to load in, MCD stewards were a disgrace,
and so were garda on scene.

Pity you weren't out on the N7 before the concert, you would have gotten some nice shots of all the buses lined up in a solid queue trying to get off at
the Naas exit.
By the look of it most concertgoers abandoned the buses there and walked the rest of the way. So soon after the Slane debacle you would have thought some effort would have been put into ensuring proper traffic management for this event |

Seriously, though. I did here of some who it took around four hours to get to the concert. As observed, they had to abandon their bus. By the time they arrived at the venue, AC/DC were already on. They only stayed for 45 minutes. A waste of a day, waste of a journey and a waste of money. |

I must have misheard, but it was the impression that I got.

It was taking about 4 hours though, but all buses that worked from Parnell Sq. were in Punchestown by 2030, and ACDC started about 2130.

Seen an old multi-coloured Transit on the N8 the other day adorned with AC/DC written in Duct Tape - I wonder if it was working the shuttle from Laois

There was an BÉ LC working the shuttle to/from Dublin with ''ACDC'' on its LED. Looked well.
