This is such good news. I was a bit cheesed when I missed out before, it was a bit tight for a Saturday morning as by the time I got up and checked mail it was 10.30 .
No mistakes this time fingers crossed, however I don't hold any hope of a more local show to me (Birmingham would do very nicely) |

Last time I got up at 8 but having had very very little sleep by 8:45 I was ready for a little lie down and I unfortunatly fell asleep and it was 10:30 by the time I woke and they were sold out. Will not happen this time even if I have to stab myself in the eye with a needle to stay awake. THOSE TICKETS WILL BE MINE, OH YES!

Im fuckin annoyed. I thought I'll sit back and wait for a more local gig like Manchester and then get involved in this mess. But no silly me, I forget England begins and ends in THE FUCKING SOUTH!!! so I have to shell out a shitload now. I won't be completely disappointed if I don't get them. But I would love to.

I'm glad all you guys over there get a couple more shows to see 'em at. Congrats! Now all I need to do is figure out who I have to sell my soul to to get them to come to South Dakota.

| I know people are freaked out at ticketweb right now, but could somebody please tell me what the Issue Number is on the billing page? I have no idea what that is |

Well, it's nearly midnight here, which I guess means that it's coming up on 6 in England. I'm not going to be awake while you madly try to secure your tickets, so I wanted to wish you all good luck and no computer crashes. :)
G'night and g'luck.

Ohhhh man I just had the worst knightmare ever. I dreamt that it was already 9 and I went to buy tickets but all my preperations went wrong, the pages with the ticketweb site had closed themselves, the google toolbar wasn't there, I couldn't find my card etc. Ohh it was awfull, My hands wouldn't work properly, it took me about 10 minutes just to get the site from lack of typing ability and even then I couldn't make the search function work. As it got later I was getting more and more stressed, eventually at about half nine and after a lot of fumbling I got to the pages where you can click to choose which gig you want but Sat was sold out and it said 1 ticket remaining for Friday. Anyway I didn't get the damn ticket and I was so pissed that I woke up. YES it had all been a dream and it was still 7:45. I set 8 alarms and I woke up before every single one. My body will not let me miss out on tickets this time!
Anyway just thought I would share and making sure I can actually type.

Think it was the xfm hype that really blew it last time. Thanks fo the advance warning on this Mr Noisy - you are a star :)
Don't know how much truth in this but it may be the case that if you go to a site a while before hand and click refresh as much as possible you are more likely to get priority. Something to so with the conntections being cached on the webserver and on the routers in between or something. Doesn't hurt... and it seemed to work for me last time. Now I just have to be sure I type my details in properly.... |

Issue numbers are just for debit cards like solo or switch, if your using a visa you shouldn't need one

Hello there, new poster.
I seem to have wandered straight into the wayahead site and booked two tickets for Friday!
Is this right? It's given me a confirmation number and everything. Seems far too easy... |
