And the story continues!!!

European members get screwed... thats the story. A quick flying visit for a month and then off...

There are some great concerts going on however with bands/singers that are more organised and cheaper. Maybe its time to forget this short little twat and let him soundcheck all on his own again.

"any club members in here tonight?"

Deafening silence...

yes I'm getting that as well. I've actually had tickets twice and both times the server hung on me before I could get to the checkout.

btw - has anyone been successful in getting Manchester tickets? Once again I have been trying since 4pm and again I have been unsuccessful.

I'm now getting to the retail page but only seeing a few of the retail products, but not the tickets. Have they sold out?

I'm thinking of driving somewhere in Europe, but it just seems like such a hassle.. If i can get normal ticketmaster tickets, and access to the aftershow, then that will redeem this god awful situation..Still regret paying $65 for the club though, regardless of any disclaimers

I'm getting the same as you, half the products. If we get them, the train from Stevenage to Manchester is £37!

grrr ... I'm getting the server is temporarily busy message again sad ... ok, what's the next venue - Ahoy Rotterdam?

This really is frustrating, cos how many of us UK fans are now going to go to Europe to try to see the shows/soundchecks etc ... it's gonna have a knock-on affect in each of the countries - fewer tickets available for the locals

Guys, just so you know the Manchester gig ARE there and ARE available as of 16.49. I am fortunate in that I have broadband access through work.

Good luck people, keep trying, keep hitting refresh when it says server busy.

They really should strip the whole site down to basics for the ticket sales - no graphics or backgrounds - a lot less data to serve!

It most definately is a nightmare. A virtual traffic jam on the web, and I can't help feeling there are some virtual bullies out there muscling their way to the front somehow, grrr...

You may have more luck with a connection made out of string and baked bean tins

If it's any consolation, I have broadband at home and I can't get through either ... I think it's just a game of luck.

everytime you hit refresh you go to the back of the queue it's not the server it is you who is making the mistake. double click each link once and wait for the next page to load. i did this and got through first time. takes time and patience though
