you should get them by the weekend. usually if there's not enough time they will only offer the "box office collection" or "ticketfast" options. usually they will also tell you to contact them by a certain date if they are not received. is this in your email from them at all?

Hi, I ordered some tickets last night for a gig this saturday. I know its real late but will they come before the weekend comes? and if it doesnt can I just collect it from any box office?
Thanks

Hi

I want to get tickets for a gig that is sold out in Manchester. Can anyone tell me if there is anything like toutless.com in the UK. Before anyone points out to me that toutless.com do have UK gigs on it's site, this particular gig is not on toutless. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For anyone interested the gig is Erick Morillo and he's playing in Sankey's Manchester.

Cheers.

you could try putting a "wanted" ad up on toutless anyway just in case? can't help with your query though.

Dolphie · 12-10-2010 8:58pm

Good idea. Thanks.

indiewindy · 12-10-2010 9:11pm

Try www.scarletmist.com, its the English equivalent of toutless.com

AAAAAAAHHH · 12-10-2010 10:48pm

They should be there before the weekend. Usually they won't let you order for delivery if there isn't enough time to deliver them.

It's sold out, keep an eye out on Toutless or www.adverts.ie

This is going to seem like a REALLY weird question, but bear with me

I'm taking a couple of people to Lady Gaga at the O2 on Tuesday. I didn't book the tickets, but standing tickets were bought. Now the thing is since the tickets we bought, one of the group has had a relapse of anxiety relating to panic and sort of a slight case of agoraphobia (fear or open/crowded spaces). But he's really intent on going to this still, almost as a test.

My question is, is it possible to arrange things so that when we get there, we're in a 'less crowded' part of the standing area, and one that is closer-ish to a way out in case he were to get a panic attack? He has reassured that he thinks he will be OK, but I just want to try and get us to a spot where it wouldn't necessarily be so overwhelmingly packed and where we might be able to make an exit if needs be. I haven't been to the O2 so I'm not really sure how they are set up and if what I'm asking about is possible...

Thanks for any advice - and I told you it was a strange question!

Toast · 22-10-2010 4:30pm

Standing in the O2 is a single big open area so you can stand where you like. Even at sold out gigs I've been at there was plenty of space near the back and at the sides which still allow you a decent view so I think you should be ok. However before she is on stage there will be a lot of people milling around inside so maybe try and arrive slightly later if you are worried.

LookingFor · 24-10-2010 1:19pm

Thanks very much for the answers! Sounds like it should be fine. We're probably going to be heading in late anyway, the opening acts apparently don't come highly recommended.

By heading in late you almost ensure that you'll be stuck at the back, which in your scenario, is a good thing. There's plenty of space, but you can still see the stage perfectly so you should be grand.

Hi All

I have just purchased tickets for me and my mam to go see westlife next April.

I had to go for the seating option as i couldnt imagine my mum standing because it can get very messy down there at some gigs lol

I have always stood at concerts and am just wondering can anyone tell me is the visibility better sitting or standing ??? :cool:

Jennyfer · 28-10-2010 11:36pm

The seating in the O2 is all tiered and I think pretty much wherever you're sitting you have a good view. Much better layout than the old Point Depot.

Thats good enough for me so

My mate booked tickets to take that and ended up booking 2 pitch and 1 seated. Would it be possible to go on the pitch with a stand ticket? How strict would they be in Croke Park about this? Thanks

Unless the people checking tickets are complete asshole and/or under very strict guidelines, they're not going to make a guy ditch his friends to sit alone. It really depends though. A way around it would be to try and send one of the lads up to the seats with the two standing tickets and bring the lad back down with the two standing tickets and then ye'll all be in standing.

Anybody know if I can book tickets on Ticketmaster using a Visa Debit Card?:rolleyes:

PacManFan · 02-11-2010 10:23am

Just wondering if anyone knows what Block A in the o2 is like. I know it's off to the side, but how bad is it?

Toast · 02-11-2010 12:08pm

This was from block A row 30. Sound was fine. View was grand.

The best thing about the 02 is that no matter where you sit you get great sound and a good view..
