    Thanks for the warning re: ebay tickets. I am sure that you will really enjoy the show tomorrow. When we went last Saturday night, there were lots of unoccupied seats (a whole row in front of us and ours were priced at £55). Just after the performance began I noticed that people in the less expensive seats, just moved to the better seats (the row in front filled up as people drifted over) . There seemed to be no-one quering it. The staff took down the cards with the section lettering on it before the show started, so if anyone came in late they would not find seats eaisly anyway, so just sat where ever.

    We were going to book tickets and go for the best seats but backtracked after finding this thread. With all the feedback that people can move anywhere spare after the start at free will and without control puts us off buying and we hope we can win a pair of freebies though we really like to go. Thanks to this forum for these tips and comments.

    I see that the 02 offer has finished on the Ticketmaster website. I know some people who are interested in going does anybody know what the current ticket deals code is? Also were do you find information like this out?

    If going Mon-Friday they could put tmdeal code in ticket deal partners offer. Not aviailable every day, but I see they even have £9.50 seats left for this Friday 11th April for example (select £9.50 from drop down box that says any price). As you said before the staff seem to let you upgrade your seat, so it does not gain you much more paying top prices for seats. This deal was mentioned on the forum before ( sorry,just can't see it now, to mention the nice person who posted it).

    Can you clarify? Are you referring to the free tickets as if they are not allocated to specific seats and does that mean you have to stay till the show starts?

    Anyone know how many free tickets they give out for each day?

    Tickets are allocated upon arrival. Yes.

    It depends on how many seats they've filled (I'm guessing) though when we went there were a lot of empty seats about . . .

    I think they are harvesting the email addresses for a few days so that they can look at (and blacklist) those that abuse the system. 30 applications on the same email address springs to mind!
    It's BARGAIN, BARGAIN, got it? Bargin my ****.

    I thought that the last showing at the O2 Arena is on the 24th April which is as far as Ticketmaster goes.
