A second date (the Sunday) went on sale straight after as all tickets were sold out in less than fifteen minutes.

Heard it on G Ryan. (Yes i'm ashamed of myself)

So happy. Couldn't bloody sleep half the night worrying i wouldn't get them then i got excited and booked the second night but hey ... i'm worth it

I also was on the dot of 9am and the first time i tried for them it said wait 15 mins, a minute later it came up as unavailable so i tried again ( whilst my heart was pounding like hell !!) and i got them easy. seated one night , standing the next ...

Same here.
I was sh***ing it. It said the unavailable thing for me five times.
Then I took the first ones I got.

Oh happy days.
