  • Hi Folks

    Feels good to be popping my MSE Cherry. (I've used MSE to grab a few bargains but been to lazy to get involved)

    Does anyone else smell anything a bit fishy about these tickets? I think it sounds well dodgy!

    Never the less I have just phoned up and ordered 2, cause I want to go soo much. Sounds official enough when you phone up though. Just hope I don't look like this :mad: on Wednesday!

    If they materialise then- thank you very much :beer:

    It's done through Ticketmaster who are legit and I'm sure the Sun wouldn't put their name to something that was bogus or allow someone dodgy to advertise tickets.

    The reason they are letting you make a 'donation' is that not every one who won the text lottery have collected them, so rather than them go to waste.....

    I will be there at the relevant time to collect them and have already phoned the Usher Hall to confirm that you CAN collect them there, so that's proof enough for me.

    With people being added to the list all the time, I think the concert will be great and the advantage of having it at Murrayfield is that we wont be 6 miles from the stage !

  • Thanks a lot Alison. You've put my mind at rest.

    I wasn't complaining - just can't believe they have been offered for so long and haven't all gone.

    Come on folks get in the party spirit, give 50 bucks to charity and don't forget the cause.

    My husband has two tickets for this event. He will be driving from Newcastle to Edinburgh on Wednesday. Any clues on where to park would be greatly appreciated. He doesn;t mind if he has to walk a mile or two.

    Cheers
