21/9 TM Pain In The Rear End

Who else is finding that now ticketmaster has removed the 'currently not on sale' tag its meaning longer trying to get tickets

Im starting to think when I had chance to buy block 116 I should of just bit the bullet and worst case scenario been left with two un-used tickets

Yep totally agree, it's horrendous!!!

I think TM have done it deliberately in order to make it harder to tell when they're actually on sale.
I'm even tossing and turning at night now, cos the weeks are ticking by and I'm worrying more and more that I won't ever be able to get tickets for 21/9, (which also happens to be my birthday, making me even more desperate to go that night).

I too wish I'd just bought tickets when they came up a coupla weeks ago, cos even though at that time I didn't have friends lined up to go, I could have just sold them on here if I hadn't have needed them.

Well If and hopefully when I do manage to be online when they get released I will jappily buy more than I need and them sell them face value on here to ensure we all get to go.

Maybe this post could be made a ticket watch, if anyone notices them on sale then stick a post on this topic to give everyone a chance of obtaining tickets!

I cant take another couple of weeks of this, oh well, hotel is booked, train is booked and aftershow is sorted, so I'll be there no matter what, would be nice to have main show sorted before hand though lol

Don't worry, when [or should I say if] they come on sale again I'll be on here screaming at folks to please buy extras!

Next thing, we'll be having to organise round-the-clock shift rotas to keep entering in those bloody security words....

I suspect the chance of 21/9 tickets being released are pretty small now. TM will have sold out all the core blocks and you will now be waiting for unsold VIP seats. suggest camping on TM for the 3 days before the show is gonna be your best chance.

Well I'll give it a go if it's the only chance left of getting tickets. If anyone does have, or manages to get, a spare I will gladly buy it off you

I hope others will do the same, if I can get more than the two I need then I will gladly buy more and pass these onto people here at face value

Thought had crossed my mind lol

I have been able to book my friend back into the wheelchair area but it is busy in there this time around so he wasn't allowed to take in friends with him. Therefore I still need a ticket for me and preferably my other friend too. I am happy to buy extras if I get lucky. I can't buy the full 6 though because I already used up some of my quota when booking my friend in earlier. Likewise happy to buy an extra from someone else here.

I'm starting to wish I'd grabbed the 116 tickets the other day.
This is doing my nerves no good at all.
If by some miracle I time it right on TM I will get as many tickets as possible because I know you guys will snap them up and I will be surrounded by proper (no going to the toilet/bar) fams
oh mama I wish I could resist ...

Lucky you. I'm just back to work after 6 weeks off. Will happily relieve you of one ticket or two if you have them going (the second is for an old school friend who is also a member here)

It's a kind of you to think of getting more and selling them to people through here - on one hand I think great, stops them getting on ebay and means people who genuinely want to go get hold of them but on the otherhand I'm a bit concerned that when (if!) these come available some of us may miss out on them because people on here think they're doing the right thing and buy extras. I'll not be happy to just miss out on TM (having spent the last couple of wks checking it and missing out on sat 18th when i went to cut the grass for 1/2 hr!!) and then find a whole load have been sold one here. Saying that, if anyone can get me 2 I'll over the moon...and v v excited.

If people off here dont buy in bulk then sell them on to other org members at face value places like ebay will become over run with tickets at highly inflated prices

Thats of course if anymore become available, which im praying they do

Yeah, i appreciate that. Just desperately want one and suppose am scared of missing out. My problem is I can check TM periodically at work but can't check here - if they become available here I don't fancy my chances. Of course I'd rather other orgers get them face value rather than being on ebay...just want to be one of them. Selfish I know but i need to go!!!

Keep fingers, toes and anything else you can crossed. Can't believe I missed them the 18th. Was on here and TM all morning and early afternoon, went into garden for 1/2hr, came back and found loads of people on here had got them while I'd been gone. Not going near the garden between now and 21st! In fact not going anywhere, apart from work (necessary) and the o2. Will keep trying.

Hi,

I don't want tickets for the main show (since I was lucky enough to buy those a little while ago), but it's 2 tickets for the aftershow that I'm after, don't care whether they are upstairs/downstairs, £25/£75 etc...

It'll be our 3rd show and really want to do the aftershow as well

So if anyone manages to book spares....

Chris

Poplife - remember the night we could have both got tickets for Block F3 row A and didn't - saw some on ebay going for over £200.00 but we buy them to go to the shows don't we - really hope you do get some tickets. I can't go now anyway as my best friend is having a birthday party and couldn't believe I would put Prince before her!!!!!
