    Oh, but it seems that it doesn't matter if it's 'someone else' does it? :rolleyes:

    But these would be the same people who complain about the price of the tickets in a few weeks when the toutwebsites and ebay are the only places to get tickets

    Exactly. Thanks, 1Jim, looks like it's only you and me who can see this.
    Everyone needs something to believe in.

    I believe I need another beer.

    if you put the link on an open forum the touts will find it
    if you offer to pm the details its unlikly established members are touts but new members (with no history of posting) are highly suspect

  • :p
    I am a little bemused at all these people who are deperate for the link as they joined the Genesis forum 'last night'. Where've they been for the last few weeks then?

    Well to stick up for myself, I got back from Holiday on Tuesday morning. (2 weeks in Florida and it was very nice thankyou very much!:D )

    Didn't know the gig had even been announced until the flight home when I got talking to the bloke next to me. Last nigth was my first chance to get online and look.

    So thats where I've been :p (well for the last couple of weeks anyway)

    But I have my tickets booked now (nearly £300 for 4) and am very happy :j

    Let me try to make you understand. There are people who've been waiting best part of 20 years to see these guys on stage again. To them, this isn't just a normal gig - it may well be the last time they play together.

    For you to capitalise on this is more than a little bit distasteful. You've already admitted that you've only got tickets so you can flog them on eBay at a profit - how do you think that makes genuine fans feel?

    Oh - you don't care do you? Didn't think so.

    Good luck with the eBay sale - I'm sure there wil lbe plenty of people watching.

  • Cheers Foxy, Got mine for Manchester. Very happy :-)
    We took on Mr T and we won:D

    Shame it had to end, will have to get free stuff from comps now :beer:
