Anyone just get main show tix for 21st Sept on TM?

I just went onto ticketmaster (as I do regularly biggrin ) and instead of the usual "more info - tickets not currently available" for the last night, it said "find tickets". Well my PC at home is prone to losing its connection at inopportune moments and despite several attempts, my searches returned no tickets.

Did anyone actually manage to get seats during this 10 minute slot or were ticketmaster just playing with us??

Yes, it has now reverted back to the "More Info - blah blah blah"

But it did go really slowly for a moment or two which makes me wonder if they released a couple of tickets or something

Ah, okay - that helps. Just to know that my PC isn't being crappy at the most inconvenient moment

I'll be glad when all this is over so I can go back to my normal life and stop having to check ticketbastard every single day, several times over!

Yeah I caught it but a few seconds too late... tried for the 4 main tiks I needed, and then just a pair, and even a single one... too late

I don't know how these things work. but the TM computer probably went slow when we all saw the post and frantically dashed to TM to see if there were any tickets available ! razz

Who did you speak to? I called and went through about four million questions of "if you want this, press 1, if you want that, press 2"...and when they got to 5, it was "and for anything else, please enter the name of the event you want tickets for" and so on - everything automated!

Can you please let me know the number you dialled where you actually got to speak to a real person as opposed to a very frustating and slow machine!

I've just 'phoned and asked about the fan club tickets and was told that only £200+ tickets on the floor are still available eek so I'm still looking.

Can't believe this. There's a pair on Ebay in Block 106 - £520 with 25 mins to go - madness!

I spoke too, and as I did the status changed back to 'currently not on sale'
The moment I got off the phone they appeared again - just can't seem to order any though... we've got 3 weeks to go, patience people

I'm not sure there were any. I got home at 4.30 and noticed it. I have been trying ever since but have not even managed to get 1 ticket come up.

Yeah it is and I won't pay it. I wont fund the touts. I'd rather not go sad If I genuinely had a spare then I'd be giving it to a fan at face value or for free.
