It appears that ticket allocations are following the trends in the US - presales are not yielding good seats, however some good seats get dropped in for general sale at a random time closer to the concert, if not sold at the premium prices, in our case www.preferredseating.com.au

It is unfortunate the the "first come first served" system is no longer the case.

Hey Dee..

I'm saying some HUGE prayers for you.. in hopes you get some good seats! I know you will, and I'd wait a bit until the tickets "drop".. We got lucky, and got some awesome seats on Stevie's side too. My friend who we went with got like
3rd row seats a few days before the show, as they just dropped them.. so, I'd wait.. I'm SOOOO excited for you...

Hugs and love,

Arlene

I'm glad it wasn't just me! I couldn't believe it when I pulled up pretty ordinary silver tickets for Brisbane, after preparing for hours like I was going on some top-secret reconnaissance mission.

I bought them anyway, because I couldn't hang out any longer, but best of luck to you for the public sale .

In hindsight, the $245 A reserve tickets on Preferred Seating wouldn't have been a bad option for me. Only $50 extra (not a lot really) and, though I don't know exactly where they are, they couldn't be any worse than what I have!

Oh well ( ) . My fingers are crossed for the 2nd Brisbane show to be offcially announced, as I hastily decided to pay the premium price for 2 front row tickets for that date last week. I'm trying to play it cool though, just in case it doesn't happen (which would be just my luck ).

Yes the presale was a joke. After several attempts the best I could get for the Hunter Valley show was B1, so settled for those. They aren't great. Then I went onto the Ticketek presale for the Sydney show and literally 1 min past 12 they were saying all the gold seating was gone! So being the impulsive person that I am, paid $400 for 5th row reserve through Preferred Seating. Its costing me an arm and a leg but what the hell!

Have they been allowing people to go right up to the front?

OH I KNOW!!!!

I went online at 9am, went in late to work... searching and searching for tickets... and i din't know i had to have a stupid password, so spent like 30 mins trying to get that!
Anyway, the perth tickets were not on sale at 9am like they were supposed to be, so i ended up buying not so great tickets to hope estate.
Then 12noon came, so presale for Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne, WHAT CRAP! **** seats, absolute crap!

But, i am not worried, i have taken Friday morning off from work, and i think that the public sale will be ok, and, if its not, i'll pay the ticket agencies the premium... I've had only the best seats for FMAC and Stevie when they came out here a couple of years ago, and if i'm going to buy tickets, catch planes, pay for accommodation, i want the seats to be just as great!
I may have to pull my finger out and contact the guy who hooked me up with Stevie's awesome tickets last time.. thats if he still works for "Andrew Mcmanus presents" still

Not happy about today either! grrrrrrrrrr

That sucks .

It seems to me though that they must have released all the tickets as Brisbane and Melbourne have pretty much sold out .

(On the other hand, it seems true when they say people in Sydney go to nothing.)

I just checked back on Ticketek and they have a second date listed for Brisbane, though when you click on it it just says "Unable to display additional information at this time."

But hopefully that is a good sign for second shows in Brisbane and Melbourne? Your luck has to be better second time around!

Tickets for the 16th of December in Brisbane on sale right now at Ticketek.com.au. I would suspect this is a glitch, but I would be making the most of it. All sections available.

Edit: So maybe not a total glitch after all. Tickets to the 2nd Melbourne show going on sale in 12 minutes at 11am AEST.
