    i've bought plenty of tickets from seetickets or ticketmaster and never had a problem

    also think manchester would be nearer for you

    LiveNation, TicketMaster, Stargreen, Ticketline and See Tickets are all reputable.
    Pre-sale is great-just make sure you are online when it starts (and if it's livenation sometimes several hours earlier-one of their presales this month was scheduled for 9am and they opened it up at 1am Grrrr)
