I give up.
I'm going to work. If anyone has a spare ticket for Saturday night I would be forever in your debt.

Did anyone notice that the NME site hasn't advertised these new dates at all? They have a news item about 'added dates', but those are the ones in the US.
There seems to have been a surprising lack of publicity about them before they went on sale except for the ticket sellers themselves - do you think this is deliberate? |

www.ticketweb.co.uk. amusingly ticketweb has crashed... i guess they may only be doing phone sales this time though after last times fuck up (i don't personally think they should have been allocated any tickets) |

seems like ticketweb is down again <sigh>, unfortunately i didn't get any spares, i had to get tickets for some other people who i promised them too... might be worth giving them a call? dare i say it! i can't for the life of me remember their number though.

if anyone has extra tickets for any of these nights, i beg for one. i have been trying at stargreen for over 30 minutes, but it just won't go that last step.
i don't think i've ever been so gutted in my entire life.

well if you read the venue info for the brixton academy on ticketweb, they actually have the full allocation of tickets... they're the designated seller...

Maybe their appeal is becoming more "selective" ;-)
Saturday: sold out in 4 minutes Wednesday: sold out in approx 17 minutes
After I've sorted all my friends out I MAY have a spare ticket; would make it available on here at face value if that turns out to be true. |

Spent a very frustrating 20 mins having trouble with Stargreens website so I gave up and called them on 02077348932. Got through on the second attempt and got the tickets! I'm now going to all 4 gigs! |

Ticketweb is working RIGHT NOW! If you don't yet have tickets, then get your ass over there.

ticketweb is still selling them, but the pages aren't loading and stargreen is also still selling them, but crashes periodically.

thanks jonathan....
my life was flashing before my eyes there for a while.
i never want to have to go through that ever again!
and to answer your question from the other forum: I live in London now, having moved over from NZ a few months ago.
