    Do you have the tickets? On the vertigo tour people who had breached these rules had tickets cancelled by Ticketmaster a few weeks after the sale. It's more of a problem in the UK as generally the tickets aren't dispatched until a few weeks before the concert. Not like mainland Europe where they seem to be sent out almost immediately.



    Yep, I have all of them in hand.
    Now 20 was not a correct number, it's 10 or so, but still.

    Is this also with Ireland? I bought Dublin tickets, can't I expect them in the next weeks?

    I'm not sure about Ticketmaster.ie but Ticketmaster.co.uk are always very slow in releasing them.


  3. Yeh I have had my tickets a week before the gig in the UK. I think for the bigger gigs where there are likely to be more touts/fakes etc, they send them as late as possible- for smaller gigs they are quick.... When I went to see Jools Holland they sent them months in advance

    Wow just a week? I would worry my ass off about them getting in time


  5. So do we. I once had tickets for a Bruce Springsteen concert arrive the day before I was leaving to see him. (They'd been bought about 4 months before).

    thank you for sending me into a panic.


  7. All I can say is that I've always received them in time. Just contact them with your booking ref plenty of time before you travel to try and convince them of the urgency of your case

    In the good old days of ZooTV tour tickets were sent out 6 months before the concert, much like it is in Europe now. Of course that was before Ticketbastard existed in the UK.
  8. right then, i rang the ticket master automated service for an issue involving when they will charge my account, and the automated system said they would be dispatch 'shortly', not sure if thats the univerasal definition of 'shorlty' meaning in the next few weeks, or the British definition meaning any time in 2009, we will see
  9. I'm trying to get tickets for U2 in Gelsenkirchen, but I don't know which website can be trusted and which not. Does anybody knows?


  10. And the only one that is official and allowed to sell tickets. Other sites you won't know anything, and you pay more than face value.

    Plus, tickets for Gelsenkirchen don't go on sale until next week. So anywhere you will find them, it's fake.
