I think a better one is www.double8tickets.com. You will probably pay more, but they seem almost guaranteed.
OK cheers mate!

Some good advice a friend gave about getting Foo Fighters tickets which I guess can also apply to this situation: "get online super early, have lots of browsers open and be quick quick quick."

I'm just chomping at the bit now for something about it to be announced now. I know I've seen them already and stuff, I know all that stuff I said before... but DAMMIT I'VE GOT THE TASTE NOW!!!

I've got to get three! Sadly the bloke I went with in 2013 (who's my best friend) isn't down for it this time as he wants to go with his (absolutely super lovely) wife (who I love almost as much as I love him). Which is fair enough. Shame, I'd want it to be him I went with but I respect his wishes. Still my best friend though and we'll always have awesome memories of that night.

Luckily ANOTHER friend of mine who's not quite as into the Mac as I am fancies it. He says while he's not that into them he does like a few of the tunes and a lot of the bands he likes are quite influenced by them. Plus, he is just a sucker for a live gig. I've said if it happens, he's got to seriously get into the Mac on spotify or whatever and bring himself to my level of fandom. I'd also buy him a copy of Rumours. I'd tell him I expect him to know every damn word to every damn song beforehand. I need the person with me to be as big a fan as I am. I was with him today and I played him "Sad Angel". He actually kinda dug it!

The THIRD ticket is for the woman next door. She's an absolute MAC NUT. It's funny. Quite often I'll be listening to the Mac in the kitchen and I'll turn it off - only to hear it blasting out the window from next door! Something we both often laugh about. I felt really guilty for not finding a way to make it possible for her to join me in 2013 (I honestly just didn't think).

So that's three.

This is what I have to make happen.

Well people here is an update. I've got tickets for 2015 and am going with the lady next door who I mentioned in here a bit earlier. Feels weird reading back through all this with that knowledge, lol.

We should change the thread name to "2014 Freezing Winter Tour".LOL.....

It probably be cheaper if FM to rent Santa's sleigh and Rudy instead of renting trucks and jets to move them around the world .LOL.............................................................

I'm glad that you got your tix ChickenStu.
