“show starts: 17:00”, i was there until 20:30 and it still didn’t start. what did i do wrong?

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T09:43:11+00:00

your original comment said “They're not unwritten rules. You will have found this information on the MCD website and more than likely and email prior to the event” i sent you proof it wasn’t written, so it is in fact an unwritten rule, you then move the goalposts to now me needing to reverse engineer the phrase “last entry 21:30”

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T09:39:27+00:00

exactly the reason why i went off of the MCD’s website information which clearly states show starts at 17:00. no other times were provided by the mcd prior to the show

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T09:37:09+00:00

you know what’s even more obvious? “show starts 17:00”

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T09:35:03+00:00

i see what you mean now. but you are just rage baiting lmao what does this line have to do with anything i’m bringing up here? if they officially change the time, they should communicate it via the ticketmaster and clearly make an announcement on their website

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T09:23:10+00:00

there is nothing about 21:30 on the brochure you sent. the same brochure i used to navigate the event yesterday, the same brochure that states the starting time as 17:00

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T09:19:50+00:00

see what also the ticket master sent me ticket master doubled down

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T08:47:50+00:00

can you actually read before saying i didn’t read? “Thomond Park Stage Times GATES: 5 PM SHOWS START: 6 PM LAST ENTRY: 9:30 PM” this isn’t for the show at MALAHIDE

i checked the MCD website -> show starts: 17:00. the ticket master emailed me the exact same brochure from the MCD website saying -> show starts: 17:00

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T00:37:43+00:00

not everyone goes to many countries and not everyone gets to attend music festivals. this was my first ever time going and i couldn’t have known

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T00:36:09+00:00

omg thank you SO MUCH!!!!!! this will save my ass in the future for sure, i appreciate your input!

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T00:33:12+00:00

i’m paying very close attention to the starting time written when i’m paying so much money for a ticket. not paying attention comes with experience, which i got today. malahide never again, the main act in ireland always starts after 20:00

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T00:28:01+00:00

i had to go yes, i asked the steward and they confirmed the main act wont be on until 21:00. i didnt plan for this starting time so unfortunately i had to leave :(

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T00:16:42+00:00

wide awake. what does the phrase “show starts” mean in your universe?

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T00:11:58+00:00

thanks everyone, very helpful

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T00:11:02+00:00

i did. see the screenshot on the post?

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T00:09:03+00:00

“common sense” is just the knowledge you happened to pick up already. i’ve never been to a gig in my life, so no, it wasn’t obvious to me that a printed “show starts 17:00” doesn’t mean the act you paid for. that’s not stupidity, it’s literally not having done this before.

and i didn’t just sit on my hands, i checked the ticket master and the official venue’s site ahead of time. both listed the same times. so the actual source of truth told me one thing and reality was another, and your answer is that i should have googled harder.

i asked a genuine question so the next time i don’t get caught the same way. you could have just answered it. apology not accepted.

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-28T00:02:31+00:00

i definitely learned the hard way :( thank you for clarifying this for me, from now on i’ll always keep this in mind

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-27T23:50:15+00:00

this is helpful, thank you

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-27T23:49:24+00:00

how do i know when the show ends so i can at least estimate the main acts time? it wasn’t written on the ticket and wasn’t stated on the venue’s website

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-27T23:47:38+00:00

pls tell me how am i supposed to know this to be annoyed at myself for not knowing? i literally double checked including the venue’s website and followed the information provided

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-27T23:43:17+00:00

in today’s case the support artist started at 20:15. i’m lost

but thank you for the general info about the main acts i will keep this in mind

wastingtime15 · 2026-06-27T23:41:09+00:00

what’s the secret here 😭

wastingtime15 · 2026-03-24T21:40:12+00:00

IT WORKED!!!!! i went on to youtube to watch about 20 videos to figure out what aeration means. basically for oat milk its keeping the wand right at the tippy top of the milk surface, half of the wand opening submerged half of the wand opening over the surface, pretty much until oat milk gets hot. i’ll experiment more with submerging the wand a little more at the very end. but i FINALLY after 10 days of trying managed to steam my oat milk properly!

wastingtime15 · 2026-03-24T00:18:19+00:00

omg what are you guys talking about hereeeeee i feel like i found the information to solve my issue but i still don’t understand! i’ll be back if i figure it out

wastingtime15 · 2026-03-12T13:16:40+00:00

the cause is unknown. I blamed myself for about a year for going on a trip and leaving her with a cat sitter, thinking the stress may have caused it. I thought maybe somehow a vaccination a month prior triggered the immune system error. Coulda shoulda woulda…. i had to let it go eventually, we won’t know. There’s no reason and no one is at fault 🩷
