Just for shits and giggles I went to 3121 ticketmaster and though expensive...you get within the first 10 rows of the stage and you take a boat to the venue. Why aren't these sold out yet????? Dang I'm thinking of making a trip to the UK for this!!!

Have you seen the price?!

THATS why!

It'll be worth it. It's not the quantity it's the quality! I'd pay it...I'm even thinking of making a little trip if they are still available!

CarrieLee said:

Well I'm just annoyed cause *I* can't afford it bear in mind its the equivalent of $450! I have good seats for 2 nights though, not far back from the vips


You should come over though, if you can Like you say, worth it!

CarrieLee said:

Because it seems a complete rip off. 8 times the normal ticket price and I might only end up a few rows in front of the tickets I already have.

No thanks, I'd rather go to another 8 shows just a little further back.

SquirrelMeat said:

Well said There doesn't seem to be that much difference.

SquirrelMeat said:

I understand, I'm just thinking about the people who didn't get any tickets. At least they have that option and it's good seats. It IS a lot of money but if that were my only option I'd do it!

And Susannah if I lived in the UK I would totally pay that....and if I weren't going to Italy in October that would have been my big trip for the year. Oh well

CarrieLee said:

The people without tickets need to go and get the deal I've mentioned in the new thread! Bargain VIP seats!

CarrieLee said:

Yeah, but thats for people who earn salaries and have credit cards. I am a student, I had to take out a loan for the normal gigs I am going to!


Ignore me, I am just wallowing

There's a company called Seatem (seatem.com) that I think organize the VIP packages. As it turns out they also sell other packages that get you in the golden circle at a fraction of the cost (somehow).
I payed 250 pounds for 2 tickets on the 5th row, and get this ... it includes a room at the Hilton for the night.

Wow, good find!

if i could afford it i would go vip but as a poor student i cant also i would rather go to 3 nights and have slightly worse seats further back but could only be a few rows

I'd be very, very sceptical of such deals considering "Gold Circle" seats are officially priced at £235 EACH ... but if u fancy taking a gamble ...

I see it as risk free. This is a UK company with an address and a phone number and I agreed to their terms, which involve full restitution in case of a mishap.
If tickets don't show up then 1. I'll call my credit card company and get my cash back and 2. I'll call the police and give them the phonenumber and address of the criminals.
Anyway, it's only money. I got some tickets through normal channels as well.
But check out those Seatem people and give them a call.

picasso said:

Actually, Gold Circle does not necessarily = VIP. VIP includes Gold Circle plus all the pre-show party, food and drinks etc. I would say this is just GOld Circle seating and not the VIP treatment as such. Even so, looks like a good deal.If I didn't live in London already and needed a place to stay this would actually be a very attractive option.

picasso said:

It seems too good to be true, but the offer is from a legitimate company.

Thank you for the heads up - even though I don't need the hotel I just booked Gold Circle tix from Seatem for the 18th - first 5 rows of Block 102.

As Seatem is Keith Prowse I'm pretty it's all good!

interesting also is that you can book a single ticket for half the price. Now that may seem obvious but consider you'd get 2 rooms instead of one. Makes sense if you don't want to necessarily share a room with someone. About £120 for GC ticket AND a good hotel room is really good value for anyone needing a room too. BUT note I'm sure these are not VIP. Just Gold Circle.

The cruise Vips are not available now, i just checked on ticketmaster. We're going on the cruise on aug 1st. cant wait.
