UK Tour 2010 (Any rumours keep me posted!!)

[behindthefringe]

Arrrrgh, im gutted! Do these people not know how broke I am

Still definitely trying for Sheffield and Manc I think but not sure if London will be worth it considering how much I'll have to pay to get there and stay over. Have never seen them at the 02 and thought it would be cool but in reality would I just be forking out loads to get stuck standing somewhere in the back with a million other people??

[Ems]

^ I'm the same, London would be ace but too expensive & probably too many people

[chasingstars]

Can you only get the presale tickets on the internet? And will they just come up on Gigsandtours as of tomorrow? Sorry but im panicking now lol

[deedee]

^ As far as I know the presale is internet only, hopefully someone will correct me if i'm wrong.

I'm a bit gutted at the prices too. HP was 53 quid and I just imagined (or hoped) that they would be less. Maybe around 35/40 pounds. Oh well, they're worth going short for.

Are the more expensive tickets for standing? (which I dont want 1) because I'm a short arse and 2) because I'll get moshed on like I did at HP).

[chasingstars]

I was expecting around 30 pounds to be honest, so when i had the bright idea of trying to get tickets to all the dates, i didnt realise it would end up being hundreds of pounds. I'm gonna try for about 3 though

Standing is £50 in Sheffield I think and £55 the rest, probably a bit more in o2 as it's London?

And the seats can be as much as £65 and £69 in London I think... I guess the closer the more they are.

[chasingstars]

Has anyone been to all the venues? Which would you recommend? I was thinking the smaller ones might be better for obvious reasons but i also thought maybe KoL would put more into it being the o2 arena if you know what i mean

[behindthefringe]

^I was wondering about the o2 and Sheffield as Ive never been there either? Is the 02 really worth the money and is Sheffield easy to get barrier at if you queue long enough???

Whenever I've been to Manchester it's been pretty good both seated and standing.

[deedee]

Thanks Sarah. So the standing tickets are cheaper. I was hoping it was the other way round. (although that makes sense now) They show two prices on the Ticketmaster website for the 02, £51 and £69 (including fees).

Aaarrggh think I'm going to have to ask my mum and dad Santa for an early christmas present.

[sarah///]

Birmingham was good last time, it's a bit smaller than o2 and Manch.
Manchester's good, ridiculously rough but it's kinda fun as long as you aren't suffering!
o2 is good too, everytime I've been it's been a decent atmosphere and there wasn't much pushing so if you'd prefer that I guess that's a good one.
Never been to Sheffield... just googled and it's 13500 capacity so must be similar to Brum

[behindthefringe]

Thanks! Think you may have just added to my list again,dammit

[chasingstars]

Do you think seating is good in o2 and MEN? Cos i would rather get standing in sheffield or birmingham seeing as how they're smaller venues

[behindthefringe]

Went to MEN twice - once standing once seated, the seats I got first time were pretty good even though they were far away, sound, view etc seemed okay from most places.

The next time I got standing and managed to get pretty close to the front even though I hadn't queued. It was definitely a bit rough though and I did get covered in something warm that wasn't beer ...but it was well worth it

[sarah///]

o2 seating is good if you get down the front in the lower tier, i happened to get lucky and get the very closest seats to the stage on Matt's side. only thing with those are you come down half way against the stage, if that makes sense? so i had a side view of them instead of them facing me! but i could see all behind the stage and stuff was pretty decent in that sense!

[sarah///]

Sorry for double post, but when you click the presale link on the site, does gigs and tours tell you it's on sale on the 10th at 9am? I'm so confused unless I'm being silly and it's just said that all along?

[behindthefringe]

Yep, that was freaking me out before as well. Not sure if it just says that for the moment so people just going straight onto the website (ie not 'fans') don't know theres a presale???

[sarah///]

Yeah that's true...someone linked me to presale luckily!

[thekid]

So is ths pre-sale link going to work or not, i have blagged a morning off work for this!!!

[behindthefringe]

So does this mean you have to be signed into the Kings website as a fan to get the link!!! EEEK! I know I signed up ages ago but for some reason it would never let me log in properly??

TIME TO PANIC!!!

[mystique]

^I used the (fanclub) pre sale option when I ordered my Hyde Park tickets and it all worked for me by just clicking the link, without me being a member on the official site (let alone a fan club member, didn't even know that existed?), so I hope it will work the same this time around.
