    Need a bit of advice please, I booked 2 tickets for this last night but I seem to have man flu so wifey to be wants to take her mate. But it's my name on the printed ticket, read in earlier posts about needing to produce some I.D, is there anything I can do to save me going there to collect the tickets?
    If you send an email to [EMAIL="changeofname@showfilmfirst.com"]changeofname@showfilmfirst.com[/EMAIL] stating Please change name from X to x, this generates an auto email reply which authorises the change of name, you print off this (as it says on the email) and wifey to be shows it with the ticket print out and her own ID. Hope that you feel better soon.

    Does having tickets guarantee you admission? Im worried we will get there and be turned away.

    I did email SFF about the pick-up time, but had no response as yet.....it is the weekend though.

    Their tickets normally have to be collected when the box office opens, its normally between 6.00pm -7.30pm, so I would assume the same for these. This is what happens for the concerts at the O2 and for all the Theatre Shows in London they do.

    The venue will be prepared for you if you ask the staff they will more than likely know where to send you, at the O2 there is always a dedicated box office with ShowFilmFirst above it, I imagine they will have something similar. If its anything like Thursday night there will be a lot of you there clutching bits of paper picking up tickets, GnR haven't had very good ticket sales. The earlier you get there the better seats you are likely to get, I picked mine up at 6.00pm and got seats right at the side of the stage. I know its a bit of wait for the show to start but we just went for dinner first, and at the end of the day, your getting in for free so having to wait a bit is better than spending £80 on a ticket in my opinion!!

    Sometimes they do ask for ID, so make sure you are able to take a bank/credit card with you to show with your name on it, or if they are not booked in your name email the change of name email address.

    The warm up act starts at 19.30, GnR should start at 20.45.......but I would add an hour to that!!

    Hope you all have a great night!
    :hello:

    Apparently Duff McKagan joined Axl on stage last night. If they got along it may happen again tomorrow night:)

    With having to collect tickets early we cant make it, if anyone still needs tickets pm me
  • I can't go sadly, so there should be 2 tickets available as I've just emailed them, they should re list them.
