    i could get past the not on sale screen, got to a for sale but didn't even get to the fan drop down screen, this was at 9:30...they went very quick

    Use the link in the email from fish people. I couldn't get to the presale directly with eventim.co.uk I had to use the link in the email with the presale code.

    Give it a go - there may still be a ticket or two as loads of people seem to be getting caught out with this.

    I got 2 x tickets for 2 x nights earlier.

    It's still showing as tickets available for all nights on the fan pre-sale. If you have a code, you still should be able to get tickets.

    Wow, I wish I had gone for the opening night but I was afraid it'd be the first to sell out so I opted for the 5th of September thinking everyone would be going for the first few. Huge relief anyway that I got tickets. Would love to go multiple nights but I was getting tickets for another 2 people as part of my allocation of 4 :/

    Here's my fantastically illustrated map to our seats I just sent my group, lol 1960932_10152373630266584_195833825_o.jpg

    So so so lucky!! (You dont fancy a second hand right leg by any chance???)

    Can I ask- ticketmaster.ie has the concert listed for sale this Friday- so can I attempt to buy them there?

    Now our chances are only one in a zillion, not one in a gazillion like they were before.

    I....think I got some!

    Got the 7 minute reservation thing to go through payment. Was trying with my Debit Card by Lloyds Bank kept ****ting the bed. Switched to Amex at the last second and I think it actually worked!

    I have an email with an order number and it shows up as "paid" in the Eventim "My Tickets" section so hoping that does actually mean they're mine (likely being irrational here).

    I don't think I could take the disappointment now if it doesn't pan out for some reason. Just very glad I have an Amex and wasn't relying on Lloyds Bank alone!

    After ages processing with a 09:30 attempt it told me there were no tickets. Then everything else gone. Bloody hate Ticketmaster, why can't it just tell you what the ticket availability is on the main gig page instead of making you try to book them?

    Looks like I'm the only one here who didn't make it. Well done all! May your F5 remain strong and true.

    Try www.gigsandtours.com or www.eventim.co.uk instead. Might still be something available.

    1 or 2 £200+ tickets around. Pity I didn't know about those websites earlier, they have a much easier to handle layout than Ticketmaster. It just says "SOLD OUT" if it's sold out!

    Yeah - I went with gigsandtours.com for mine. Twitter reporting that there is some tickets coming back on the market so worth your while keeping an eye.

    You don't have to register with gigsandtours.com ahead of buying a ticket. Good luck with it.

    I got mine on gigsandtours at 9.30am. No queue, no delay. Felt like they were well prepared for the extra traffic although I'd say ticketmaster got most the hits.

    Will do so half heartedly with a distinct air of resignation. Looks like it's only the hospitality ones are coming and going.

    EDIT: 2 standing spots came up but I'm not paying a few hundred for the whole deal to stand at the back. Even all the recycled £400 tickets are gone now too.
    Oh well.

    All 22 nights sold out in 15 minutes. I had a look at eBay for a laugh, and someone's got some up for €1500 each. (That's Euro, not Pounds, for some reason.)

    Me, I'll just wait for the DVD, thanks. :cool:

    Some people are just so desperate for money its not even funny.

    Best thing to do is ignore these extravagant offers, the more fans do that the sooner the touts will be put out of business.

    Didn't make it- not really disappointed if I'm honest- I think there's more of a good chance she'd play an Irish gig or two considering her contact with this country through the years- with the cost of tickets, flights and then accommodation, I don't think it would have justified the experience for me.
    Hope those who got tickets enjoy the concert though:)
