    I have o2 phone and regularly get text for presale tickets for events at the o2, I have already had my MJ one, I wont be using it though, but wanted to say in the past I have used the presale priority tickets this way and have actually ended up getting crappy seats, I booked Pink and Kylie this way only for them both to add more dates with better seats available a few days after the tickets going live. My advice is to hold out, I have rushed for TT tickets on the day they were released, held on the phone for hours, refreshing computer whilst being on the phone, then being so excited because I have in the gods tickets, only for them to announce more dates a few days later.

    100% right, I missed the first wave of seats for TT & was contemplating buying on ebay- thought the prices were bonkers so just kept looking on ticketmaster, new dates were released no publicity & I got great seats, so can be worth waiting. bought priority seats for !!!!!cat dolls and was in block b on the floor, really couldn't see much at all. would recommend the side blocks depending on stage layout. my fav being N10.

    for p!nk u ovilly wernt quick enough. PLUS the best dates were released 1st (fri n sat). although the 02 presale codes didnt work for like an hour n a half, but when they did work u got standing options when u picked (best available). when you picked standing it said 'non available'.

    of course im referring to May and NOT dec.

    presale also only releases batches of each ticket level, and if your competing with other presale (ie, itunes) u have to be even quicker.

    Just caught a (quick) glimpse of his press conference on the news. Was that really him?? His voice is way deeper and he looks fatter In fact, he looked just like that English bloke who's made a living out of impersonating him. My conspiracy theory-laden mind is working overtime here. suspect.gifsuspect.gif:eek:
    So that was why he was so late at the O2 announcment, probably had a hissing fit and refused to go on, they had to get a looky likey to fill in at short notice

    No.

    It's NOT a Grabbit - you aren't referring to a special offer that is widely available per the rules, you're looking for tickets.

    If someone finds a site selling £1000 tickets for £100, that would be a Grabbit. Requesting a mod move this to the Arms where it belongs.

    NO this is a grabit these tickets will be in very short supply, you will only get one if you are very lucky and they will be worth more than the face value when in hand, Wacko will sell out in minutes he has a massive fan base, despite the child sex abuse allegations and being way out there in never never land, away with the fairy's.
    We are the change we wish to see.

    OF COURSE it's a grabbit! It doesn't just have to be something that's mega cheap, it's something that will no doubt sell out very very quickly so if you want the product you have to GRABBIT QUICK. It's not rocket science...
