TheCardHolder

Anyone else aware she's playing in the olympia on the 7th? Announced today that she will be playing. Can't wait for this gig.

Rabbit Heart

I've been waiting a while for her to announce a date over here.
Should be a good gig, providing I get tickets

Electric Bloom

Yeah can't wait for this. tickets go on sale this friday

GSpoon

really hope this isnt another 'Pixies' scenario... selling out in miliseconds... dying to see Florence !!!

projectmayhem

Saw them at electric picnic and it was a fantastic gig. Well worth seeing, but they really packed out their tent, so there's a good chance tickets will be gold dust

Cookie Jar

Thanks for the heads up!! Will try pick up tickets!

ko4jm6y9iwv2lc

Got my tickets this morn on the fan site. All you had to do was register. Delighted!

L.S.F

would love to go to this but getting Tickets for Rodrigo y Gaberilla this week so no money till next week and I suspect they'll all be well snapped up by then

GSpoon

only seen the post about the pre sale this morning and now they are all gone... im gutted, i know the chances of getting them on Fri are even slimmer now:(

Rabbit Heart

Thats got me worried now.
I hope they dont sell out too quick...

perfect_circle

there's always a way to get tickets.. ebay, toutless, friends/colleagues who can't go! just log in to get them early.. i went to a load of concerts this year that were sold out on TM.

can't wait to see florence again myself!! fav band of the year

jighooligan

So raged! They play the day my exams start:mad:

GSpoon

B*ll****..

refreshing constantly and and searched for tixs at 9:00 ... sold out!!!!!!!!:mad:

ghostdancer

gone in less than a minute....

was refreshing every 15 seconds until i could get through, selected 2, left it at best available, filled in the CAPTCHA in a few seconds, and then:
"Sorry, no exact matches were found, but other tickets may still be available."

:rolleyes:

JoeyJJ

Gone 15 secs after 9 for me too.

Cainer

Well I got two at 9.02.......:D

Sorry to gloat but I'm soooo happy!!!

Maybe try Belfast?

Standard Toaster

Yeap, all gone

spank_inferno

Tried but failed myself
refreshing from 9am and their call centre lines wont connect either!!!

gawwwwddd damn!

krankykitty

How disappointing! I tried seconds after 9 too.

pobbien

very annoyed. how is it possible that all tickets sold in under a minute??

it was still 9:00 when i got rejected!

mcloughj

there were tickets on sale but damn that was fast. there will be other shows. her next gig in the uk is the 17th and the olympia is free on the 8th and 9th according to ticketmaster

mal1

I got 2:) Sorry to rub it in, if you were unlucky.

Sabre0001

Crazy that it sold out so fast! Did manage to pick up tickets for two other gigs also on sale at 9 so can't complain too much I suppose...

nope, she's playing on the 9th in glasgow according to her myspace...
could theoretically play here on the 8th, but i doubt it.


Sound Cellar all sold out too btw

Standard Toaster

Most of the tix were prob gone before today with the presale

GSpoon

as much as i would like it to happen, i really doubt a second date will be added

Trev C

I didnt think there was a presale for this???
I only really wanted to see the support act - Temper Trap.

Wish Ticketmaster would just sort the website out and take it down if it is sold out!

I did not know this, now I'm even more sad

Stupid security code thingy taking valuable seconds!

glanman

There was a pre sale on her fansite on Wednesday. Could have bought them but didnt feel like going, if that makes you feel any better:)

cianjg

I can't believe it sold out so fast . I was on the site 10 minutes before tickets went on sale to be sure I'd get two...still didn't get even one.

=]™

Rabbit Heart

I was queuing at 8.30am when I got to the top of the queue they were sold out

I'm hoping another date will be added, if not I hope some lovely person sells me 2 tickets.

ldmr

If anyone is able to go to the Belfast date, if you try the Ulster Hall box office they still had tickets for Belfast (00442890334455) even when Ticketmaster was "sold out". Sadly the same doesn't apply to the Olympia (I tried!) but I got 4 for Belfast.

tomissex

Nobody thought Pixies or Placebo would add extra dates so fingers crossed Florence is the same!

Tafus Maximus

She was savage at the electric picnic, I knew she would sell out fast but that was crazy. I some how managed to get one ticket after trying for 4 then 3, 2 and somehow got one in the seated section! feck it I'll go on my own!

so anyone need a friend for the night?...lol

Yeah tried there aswell!!
Im ragin!!! Ahhhhhhh!!!

ashyle

Ugh I was nearly sick, was up refreshing since ten to 9!! Did not know about this pre-sale... i miss the days of queuing up in real life for tickets

sammalone

Florence & the Machine are playing in Cork in The Opera House Next Sat (Dec 5th) for anyone interested as part of a free Murphy's night so log on to littlebignightsout.com to register for the draw for the tickets! Worth a shot

RubyK

Anyone know if more tickets will be available or is it fully sold out?

AnonoBoy

Long ago sold out.

Try toutless.com but it's not looking hopeful over there for any.

tracert

Did anybody get tickets for the Cork gig yet or did they send them out yet? Got an email on Sunday saying it was the last chance to sign up and that tickets would be allocated Monday. No word either way yet.

glanman

Got two yesterday:) Probably won't be going unless something unforeseen stops me going to Glaway for Modest Mouse, but my sister is taking them. they said in the email they will be sending out wristbands to people by Wednesday in the post and it is wristband only entry. You have to be there/in the queue by 6.30 sat evening, otherwise the wristband is void. Then there will be a queue for cancellations where non ticket holders can get into it. They said there was 7 times the capacity demanded. Also once in you can't leave and get back in again...

RubyK

I signed up yesterday, but I'm guessing I'm waaayyyy too late! Bloody hell.

tracert

Guess I didn't get tickets so. Ah well, heading to Sonic Youth on Sunday so it would have been awkward. Enjoy, anybody who got tickets!

Will do!

Went to Olympia last night....amazing show...the woman is crazy , climbing the speakers then up into the boxes...one of best live shows I have been to. Luckily we got our tickets at a reasonable price, people outside were offering 200 per ticket

music_me

And when she was in the furthest box away from the stage she considered climbing up into the circle but said it was a bit high !

Brought my girlfriend to this last night as she's partial to the album. Pretty good evening, Florence's voice holds up really well live and she certainly put on a great show plus the lighting was superbly done I thought. I saw her on the NME tour in Wales earlier this year and the difference in her stage presence from then is pretty remarkable.

I wouldn't be mad about a lot of her stuff but it was certainly a decent evening in a great venue.

markcellardoor

was keen to go to this gig for Temper Trap alone. (why didn't they have them on their own night!)

anybody catch them? they were very decent at EP.

They were really good - played a few new tunes and sounds good also

The last song was gas , the guitarist was going nuts then singer went a bit crazy and there was nearly a guitar in the head when he slipped

Impressive though and ya not sure why they are supporting, but Im not complaining 2 quality bands for price of one
