    No news yet, Ian said it was gonna be after the news, but they've played 3 songs in a row since then and heard nothing.
    I'll post if something comes up.
    Im fuming today. iv sat here for 5 and a half hours (nearly 6) trying to get these tickets, constantly refreshing the page just incase it starts working, and every so often hitting re-dial on the phone (still engaged)
    and now i have to sort out my dinner and go to work within the next hour! and i work in a call centre so no more calling for me! will try and keep checking the website when i can though, and i'll still be floating around on here too. lol.

    same here hezza, i can hang about till about 5 then have to catch a flight back to edinburgh.

    they better not go for sale while im somewhere over the irish sea lol

    again im ok with presales for members or people who register etc but this was a blunder. if i dont get tickets im defo complaining against that fact.

    Yes I fully agree but the links, codes etc designed for pre-registered members tend to get publicised on web sites like these and then get used by anybody who searches for them.

    I had been hitting the redial button like a mad person for over 90 mins this morning, before discovering a thread on here (listed under gone deals or something like that) which gave the URL for source last night. :mad: Cursing my naive belief of the official announcements about 10am today!!!

    Don't live in central belt, so always relying on online or phone sales of tickets for good gigs like this. Total nightmare.

    Not in Forth One area, so keep us posted about any updates!

    And if all the Usher Hall has to do all day is to find a million different ways to describe that their system is messed up, then we really have problems!

    Please bear with me...I am currently experiencing system problems therefore am unable to help control my anger towards you. I am NOT sorry for any inconvience this causes you as i have sat for the past 6 hours listenin to tht rubbish and finding out pre sales have been made unlawfully :@ SORT THIS OUT!!!
