It will be nice to meet the forum members.

P.S. the last tour some tickets was mailed after the show ...i think it's for this reason that we pickup the tickets.

Ordered tickets for all six nights,always something quite magical about a gig at the RAH.Sure be nice when we hear about the remainder of the tour schedule.Seeing that I am an Englishman living in Canada ,MK'S tour is a wonderful excuse for a trip back home.
Trust you all get the tickets you wish for.

Post by: Hoops McCann on June 27, 2009, 11:22:35 PM: That's crazy, you have to plan to go there almost a year in advance! I just ordered and received tickets in the mail for a concert that is set to take place on August 2nd (a few weeks).

By the way, I'm pretty sure the idea behind having 100% "will call" tickets is to prevent scalping. The problem is, it really doesn't work. All the scalper has to do is be there, and hand you the tickets...

If there's a gig somewhere else in the UK I will go there as well. But meeting up on sunday before the gig is a great idea. I suggest to work out all meetings some weeks before the gigs. By the way, great job Martina, I already knew you are excellent on these kind of jobs!

Post by: goldenheart96 on July 07, 2009, 12:05:57 AM: Hi all, the presale thing was a little to chaotic for me; I don't have a credit card and hesitated too long, plus I missed that midnight mail saying everyone could order four tix per person so I couldn't ask someone anymore. Sooo, if someone has a spare ticket for one of the shows, preferably Sun 30, I'd be very happy :) Oh and I really don't want to pay much more than face value... Did you see this site?

I got a letter from the RAH to call for a pre-sale at 9am on July 1st. Unfortunately, we were in LA then. A friend didn't get through until 11am...the online sale started July 3rd. All was a bit of a secret :(

Post by: goldenheart96 on July 07, 2009, 07:47:53 PM: I am negatively amazed by the fact that even if the amount of tickets per person is limited to 2 or 4 some people are so morally sick and sell them further for outrageous prices. What else can be done to prevent that?
But to return to my original request, I'd really appreciate it if someone has a spare ticket for me face value :) :)

I am roaming around here for a few weeks now, and I can tell this is THE place to be for everyone interested in MK..., and no, I am not a mod..., but almost everybody from the MKNews "golden era" is here. IMHO, since all these new moderators are around that other place (one person in special), it has lost all what made it attractive for me once. But this MARKINTIME-place is much better.

Post by: Waterline Man on July 08, 2009, 11:54:27 AM: I would love to go to one of the RAH gigs but booking something thats nearly a year away seems a bit crazy to me so I am going to wait & see the full picture when the rest of the dates are released & plan it from there.I know from past experiences that there will be tickets available closer to the event or if I have to pay the scalpers a few quid extra down to the road it will still be worth it.

Post by: Justme on August 06, 2009, 05:32:35 PM: May 30 - Arena/Row 21 Seats 17+18

I do wonder if anyone is so fortunate to sit in the rows 1-6, as I'm getting the impressions that the first rows are reserved for....not the fans I guess.
By the way, I managed it through the booking process four minutes after the sale took off.

EDIT: Ok, my theory is wrong!

I'll be at all RAH shows in 2010 and he can certainly drop me a mail and I give a helping hand. As a legal German alien in London! :-*
