[julieannboo]

all a get up.

i bet all the bots are buying up the tickets.

waste of time.

Same here, couldn't get through.

Manchester sold out in less than 10 mins(21,000 capacity!)

Can't afford the VIP/Platinum seats so look like I've had it unless they add second date.

I think a lot of tickets went yesterday in the O2 presale.

Total disaster. First it told me the tickets weren't on sale yet - for about 20 minutes - then when they finally appeared, the only ones it offered me were half a mile back. I must have typed in about 100 ridiculous 'Captcha' words. Completely impossible. I'll try tomorrow in the general sale if I can get near a computer, but I'm starting to lose hope. Can't believe I let a goodish ticket slip through my fingers yesterday...

Hello, my friend was able to get tickets. He went to Live Nation UK and was able to purchase tickets through the pre-sale.

Yes, that's where I was too, but the tickets I was offered were just too far away. I've seen too many shows from the back of the O2 and you might as well be watching it on TV. I know the pre-sale selection is separate from the general sale, so I'll have another try tomorrow, otherwise I'll have to hope for extra dates.

It was slow at first but eventually I could get through for most venues. There are still some left in Leeds - EDIT now sold out

I was assuming they would make more seats available tomorrow for the general sale and that they are not yet sold out?? But I don't know.

Pre-sale London seats aren't that great.

no -it hasnt sold out - they only put a limit amount of tickets on sale today.

Sorry, meant to say would try general sale so nothing sold out just yet.

Tried the 02 pre-sale on Weds but had no luck, in fact a few people at work tried it and not one got a ticket.

Am going to try Live Nation at 9am but am not holding out any hopes

Will be interesting to see if any of us get decent seats (if any).

[Turn It On]

Glasgow completely sold out by 9:10. What a joke. Of course ticketmaster were very keen to push towards their reseller. Scumbags.

[tango87]

Finally got my ticket! O2, May 27th, A1, Row H, Christine side!

I got it through AXS rather than the dreaded Ticketmaster...

Good luck UK Ledgies!

I had a surprisingly positive experience with this. I had no luck on wednesday with 02 priority so yesterday I tried with Live Nation pre-sale (which basically is done through Ticketmaster).

I wasn't expecting to get anything and at precisely 9am when tickets became available my computer started playing up. As you can probably imagine my language was rather colourful. After about ten minutes everything freed up and naturally I assumed my computer was playing up because of the demand for the tickets.

At about 9:20am I though "sod it, I'll just try it now". I genuinely wasn't expecting a positive result and was only doing it so I could say I'd at least tried.

No one was as stunned as me when I was successful and bought two tickets. Cheap ones too. Still can't quite believe it now.

In 2013 I had absolutely no luck with getting tickets for the two dates announced, but luck would have it I checked back later and an extra date had been announced. That was how I was able to get in then. So I suggest anyone who missed out watches the websites. I reckon at the very least two extra dates will be announced, and that's always anyone's best chance at getting tickets.

I was just lucky. Don't give up people!
