    What a daft thing to say, not try hard enough, did you by any chance pay a really high price for the tickets, not feeling to good now are we....
    why is it daft?! The only true way to secure a decent seat was to go to the box office.

    no I didnt buy the £700 tickets, as finding out his stage set up totally put me off my 'desperation' to get tickets.

    they can sell high end packages all they want, they did for britney spears! however with MJ they can demand xxx as he is such a high artist. if they dont sell all of em they wont be crying as even if they just sell one, its still equivalent of 10 individual tickets minus the booking fee.

    what are the chances of jackos "this is it" tour turning into a
    rolling stone-a-thon,? . "this is definitely it!! 2025!!!

    Once he gets the feel of paper money and has a day out at Alton towers he will be adding dates like the rest of em,

    I can see MJ moaning about ill health and stress halfway through the tour and calling everything off.

  • March 13th 2 tickets were naively purchased for Michael Jackson on Viagogo. The price paid for both Tickets was £473 which included all fees.

    When the confirmation was sent it did not include complete seat details. I have been telephoning and e-mailing Viagogo since to get this information but to date they have not given me this. Hence, I have paid for the tickets but I do not know what I have bought.

    Main Issues:
    1) It is not possible to know the face value of the ticket when you purchase.
    2) I thought I was buying directly from the site, this as it transpires is not the case.
    3) Their Customer Service OR LACK of it is atrocious.

    Martin Lewis why have you not warned us about this site!!!
