    although it's insane, i'm seriously considering traveling up and down to london for this show. Leaving here the 11th, getting back the 12th. Next day Rotterdam. Then the 15th I'm going to London again for 5 days, short holiday planned around the O2 show.


    thats not insane at all to me, my wife will tell you to see a doctor though :lol:

    the HMV pre-sale is 2 days before general sale.
    Tickets to the special one-off small show will go on sale via a HMV pre-sale from July 21 to fans who pre-order forthcoming new studio album 'Backspacer.'

    General sale then begins on July 23.

    so even though hmv do not mention this do we start preordering? and which version do you have to preorder?

    as they have two? can you imagine ordering one and fuinding out you had to get the other?

    I'd go as far as saying one news site has it, as NME and uncut are very closely related and probably share the same info.

    Still I see it being very accurate. The woman at sheperds bush was vfery quick to point out it wasnt official yet. Too quick in fact

    I know, its parb for the course these days, things leak so easy I guess.. The venue said it hadnt been made official yet so really it shouldnt have been reported.

    So guys I rang HMV online, conversation went like this: -

    'so I wonder if you can help me, i just noticed on the internet that you are to offer tickets to see a band if you first preorder their album> can you verify this'?

    'sir, are you referring to Pearl jam;'s backspacer release?'

    Yes

    , this is new information we have had today, we dont have specifics yet but please keep checking back as the info will be posted shortly.


    To cut a long story short he even confirmed it would be best to avoid preordering yet as he couldnt guarantee if you preordered now without a mention of the ticket link that you would still get that link when its anbnounced. His advice was to wait for the announcement then preorder. It also doesnt matter he thought which you picked to order

    At least She Bu is bigger than the Astoria. This is gonna be a nightmare to get tickets to ... but I HAVE to be there :lol:
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    :shock:
    I really hope 10c has some sale for this!

    it's 10-15mn cycling for me,I can walk there in probably half hour! I can go there with my eyes closed!
    I travel the other side of the bloody world to see them so not getting a ticket for the show 5k down the road is not an option!! :evil:

    HMV pre-ordered just in case...as for it being not true:

    if we all work together I'm sure we can get enough pairs of tickets to keep us all happy. I me4an many of us will want one each, so we can help each other out.

    Ebay will be a bitch for these tickets

    Further chat with HMV.....preorders now will qualify...

    I cracked and ordered both.

    This is very good marketing. Exceptional. This will shift a few thousand of these on this basis alone. Good work. I mean that. (I'm saying this is great work by the PR people, say what you like about the band cashing in etc, but this is steller it really is)
