    I should think so - the tickets were proper tickets with prices on the front

    Tickets arrives this morning, thanks to op "not sure which comp they came from" ( said Big Brother and times news paper)
    Is the security so tight that they stop you taking in your own food or water?

    thanks golden jill for posting
    and blackmidnight for finding it for me !!

    there's no guarantee you will get a refund at all. Apparently there will be an announcement on oasisnet.com at 6pm

    Did you stay for the full show? They more than made up for the problems when they came back on stage! They went past the curfew & will get a hefty fine just so everyone didn't get half a gig. I won my tickets but even if I'd paid for them I wouldn't claim a refund.....we still all got to see a fantastic show! ;):D

    I wouldn't claim a refund but if I had gone (couldn't go at last minute) i would have had to leave at 10.30 to get the train so would have missed half of it

    We had a fantastic time thanks to CindyT, was a real shame about the sound problems, and we had to leave at 10.40 to National Express it back to Wolverhampton. Sounds like we missed a lot, but hey, it was free and it was fantastic!!!
    My other half was umming and aahhing bout buying a programme for a tenner, but as the field cleared away I found one dropped on the floor and nabbed it.
    Now is that moneysaving or just plain dodgy!!!!! I wonder?? (Considering ppl were collecting empty beer cups for 10p each!)
    When you get to the end of your tether, tie a knot and hang on.
