  • Can't help with any information on tickets, sorry. It said on the Radio today, Take That had invited Robbie Williams to Join them on tour.
    Can't see that coming off. I reckon Robbie's ego can't take anymore.

    maybe we could all try and get together I had the ones for newcastle
    at 8.40 and decided to go back to check the seats then lost them
    would advise if we can't get in early to try about 8.30am

    Just had a nosy at the dates ect...they don't seem to be doing any shows at sheffield arena this time! :eek:

    Reckon they'll add on dates though like always.. when all tickets sell out so quick with alot of demand still there too.

    Nearest to me now is Newcastle.

    After the fun and stressful games trying to get tickets over the net and by phone last time. Does anyone have any experience of going direct to the venue and getting tickets from there. Even if it means queuing for a few hours or more!

    I'm happy to do that so that my wife does get a good view but don't want to find I get there and by the time its my turn in the queue find they've all sold out or end up not getting very good seats as they've all been allocated to agencies etc.

    Any help appreciated.

    Which venue were you thinking of? The O2 arena does not have a box office so you can't actually queue up over night.

    The NEC hopefully.

    Lets hope all these places don't do away with their box office otherwise we'd all be at the mercy of the internet and phone!

    I always try to buy over the counter at the venue box office and pay cash as it eliminates booking fee and credit card fee.

    I queued for tickets at the Arena in Newcastle for the first comeback concert. I'm sure I was there less than an hour and got 4 tickets for OH and her friends (none for me). Decent seats too.

    However, I anticipate a lot more demand this time round.
