May 14, 200619 yr I can appriciate why some are disappointed because they have a good point but seeing Robbie anywhere is a fantastic experience.
May 17, 200619 yr OK. I'm confused. When tix first went on sale for Wembley they were at 2 rates. The posh seats were slightly more expensive than the standing and the 'normal' seats. Most of the really really devoted RW fans ( IS members in the main) would probably have wanted to get as close to him as possible and chose standing tix. When the gigs were moved to MK they had to find a way of compensating those people who had paid the extra £5 (or whatever it was). Thus they created a Golden Circle, which had never been on the cards for Wembley, and told those who had bought 'posh seat' tix that they could stand in it. This meant the really really devoted IS members who had bought general admission standing tix would no longer get close to the stage (being now located behind the posh seats Golden Circle people). Am I correct so far? Anyway, on the Official Site tonight I notice they are selling more tix for MK but only to those IS members who havent used their allocation. ( I can only assume this would be people who in the main have joined the IS after the original ticket sale?) It says that tix are being offered at either £45 or £50. As MK is all standing, I can only think this is Golden Circle and General Standing tix. So if you have been a really really devoted RW fan and paid your money to join the IS well before the tix went on sale, and sat in front of your computer that whole day when the website crashed, and finally managed to buy some Wembley general admission tix in the hope of getting near the stage, you are now destined to be behind the Golden Circle. If however you decide to join the IS tonight you can buy Golden Circle tix no problem. Am I missing something here? :wacko:
May 18, 200619 yr I'm sure you'll find someone for that ticket!!! I hope so ..... fingers crossed! :D
May 19, 200619 yr :cheer: milton keynes :D I live in newport pagnell, which is a town in milton keynes :D But mind you, the mk bowl is c**p! There's a poxy little stage, no seats, outdoors, it's like a massive hill from top to bottom to the stage tis c**p i tell ya
May 19, 200619 yr I've got a GC ticket from a very special person who didn't sign up for the IS in the first place because it was to expensive and now this person was so pissed about the whole situation that he/she did sign up just to be able to buy 4 GC tickets for people who "have been a really really devoted RW fan and paid money to join the IS well before the tix went on sale, and sat in front of your computer that whole day when the website crashed, and finally managed to buy some Wembley general admission tix in the hope of getting near the stage....." ;) I was very lucky to be one of those 4 :wub:

May 19, 200619 yr If I had sat there all day back in November to get a standing ticket and was now told I couldn't get into the Golden Circle I'd be doing exactly the same. Offloading the General Admission Ticket and bribing someone to join IS to get GC tix. Lots of people will be doing that I expect. The whole thing seems really badly thought out. :unsure: Are they going to sell GC tix even in the Extra Tickets 'General Sale'? That would be really really crazy. :wacko:

That would be really really crazy. :wacko: I thought of doing that, selling my tickets and buying tickets today in the general sale, there's still some available for the tuesday night, inner circle, four pounds more than I originally paid, and yes I sat at the computer for a very stressfull day in November trying to get them in the first place. To make matters worse, the people I'm going with want to keep the GA ones :( I would of cancelled if it wasnt for the fact I want to see Robbie sooooo much.
May 19, 200619 yr Dont dare cancel Sparkle. If what he says is correct he may not tour again for a long long time. The organisation is a complete shambles but you'll have a fantastic time wherever you're standing. And at the end of the day you'll still probably be a lot closer to the stage than I'll be in my seat at Hampden. I've ordered the binoculers. :rolleyes:
May 20, 200619 yr Hi Jupiter, I won't cancel because I want to see Robbie so much. I was on a bit of a downer yesterday because I had a chance of getting closer tickets and the people I was going with didn't seem bothered :wacko: What I really would of liked was for them to say yeah go ahead and get more tickets and we would all go twice! ( I did suggest it) Guess ther're not as mad about Robbie as me. I know I'm going to be in for a treat no matter where I,m standing. Might have to borrow your binnoculars ;) Edited May 20, 200619 yr by sparkle
May 20, 200619 yr @Josh - the stage won't be poxy - Robbie will bring his own and it will be huge! I'm still doing 3 nights but have managed to get IC for two of those nights now!
