  • Hi

    Could anyone tell me if the tickets for Will I Am are standing or seated? My friend and I are pregnant and can't risk falling etc.

    Thanks :)

    Why not resurrect this thread with the Sky audience tickets?

  • So I was really happy to get tickets for Fortune's Fool at the Old Vic for New Year's Eve.
    Except having made a special trip in the rain and the wind on the worst night of the year not to have plans - we arrived at the theatre to find it dark and locked along with other SFFirsters. Thanks ShowFilmFirst :mad:. Thanks also for the complete lack of apology when I emailed them later :mad:

    Give them a chance, as you said it was NYE, they will have been away from the office.

    From my own experience, my bet would be that starving artist will not receive any response and certainly not an apology.

    I've also experienced, on more than one occasion, turning up clutching my ticket voucher and finding either that the event was at a different venue or not on the day specified by SSF.

    Well, in this case the event has taken place at that venue on other dates and in my own experience I have received a response as have plenty of others when SFF have been contacted on other matters in the past.

    Just bear in mind that most offices won't be fully staffed again until Monday. That's all I am saying, a little patience is required.

    I gave my experience of not receiving a response from SSF. When they sent me to the wrong place, they had quoted the venue where the group often has appearances but had been told (by the group, I checked) of the different location. On another occasion, we arrived at the right place but the wrong day was on the voucher - the day after the actual event.

    They've had a few months to respond to me. Perhaps they'll catch up.

    It's good to know that they do sometimes respond. Thanks.

    However I've learned to check separately that events are due to happen at the place and time SSF state.
  • To clarify - I did get a response but only to say that they had sent out emails saying there was no performance. This clearly wasn't true as we weren't the only ones to show up and I keep a close eye on my inbox including the spam folder. What I am saying is that the word 'sorry' or 'apology' never came in to it. They cocked up - they could at least take responsiblity.
