I'm thinking about getting tickets but might wait until everything calms down and see what's still left.

There are far cheaper options if seeing a show from someone who past their prime back in the 80's is your bag....

Bonnie Tyler
Keith Harris and Orville
Adam ant

:roll:

i will laugh my socks off if he cancels them all and does a runner off to Cambodia with the money

If it has anything to do with Ticketmaster or AEG Live then I would strongly advise people to take anything given as fact with a very large pinch of salt. I'm speaking from my experience of seeing Prince at the O2 a few years ago - initial premium tickets being on the upper balcony then reporting all tickets for the gig were sold out. Tickets for other parts of the arena such as the stalls (which are clearly inferior to being 100ft up in the air on the top balcony away from the stage) suddenly going on sale weeks later with few ticket exchanges being given to the people that had 'premium' balcony seats. These tickets then 'sold out'. Then new 'premium' tickets went on sale for over £100 near the stage. Then these 'sold out'. Then near the shows themselves more seating in the premium area that people had payed £100+ for went on sale for the same price as standard tickets, just over £30. And don't even get me started on the aftershow party fiasco!
From my experience if you're told the shows are sold out by Ticketmaster of AEG Live then they probably aren't and more tickets will be on sale later.

If you scroll down there's a pir for £75 grand :shock: with a hotel, chaufferur limo and a tour.

At least you get free postage on them :? unlike the greedy git who's selling for £25 grand and still charging £7.00 postage :evil:

I'm thinking of offering on ebay a private performance for a similar sum :lol:
