The Astoria was one of the best gigs I have ever been to. I drove up from South Wales in the morning for it and was completely blown away by it. Now that I'm living in London I will shit in the street if I can't get to this show! And so a week of nervous waiting begins...
By the way, my fiancee will still be in Sydney when this gig is on so I'll definitely have a spare...
“Do not postpone happiness”
(Jeff Tweedy, Sydney 2007)
Have O2 sent out information about the pre-sale then?
I have an O2 phone but haven't received anything.
I have to say, I fear a repeat of the Astoria fiasco, with touts buying up half the tickets and selling them for silly money on eBay. I can't understand why the band can't follow Bob Dylan, Tom Waits and The Who's example. All those artists when playing small shows made it so only the person who bought the ticket (and guest) could enter the venue. Given Pearl Jam take similar measures for their arena shows you'd imagine doing the same thing for a show like the Empire would be easy.

just got the email myself! Will be trying with hmv & o2 priority! this is going to be a blast! I saw Willy Mason a few years back, I was upstairs on the balcony, front row... one of the best shows ever! If I manage to get tickets I am going straight back up stairs!
all shows I've been to there, you can't just decide to go upstairs/downstairs, there's different entrances for a start, and what's on your ticket says where you go.
If I dont get tickets to this and someone else here ends up with a spare, I will buy it from you + I will throw in some juicy pj items. Black promo maybe? Or something else, you name it.
I just want to add my name to the list cause I am sure I will miss out here.. There will be tears!
I wonder how long before we get 10C confirmation/plans for this. I remember they confirmed Astoria the same day SeeTickets did. They had to have known HMV was going to go public with this news today. This isn't some little leak.
You say that... I am currently outside the shepherds bush on my iphone
I rarely stand, but if I could only get standing tickets then I would gladly spend a few hrs waiting

Given the scheduled ticket sales today and tomorrow, I'd say Thursday would be a good bet.

I'm gonna go ahead and say that I hope whatever allotment of tickets 10C ends up with (if any) go to local fans, as they did with, I believe it was tickets for the Letterman aftershow gig for New Yorkers. If they can do it for them, no reason why it couldn't be done for us.
Yes I agree. If I'm assuming by local you mean anywhere within a 3 hour drive
If not, PJ the Wolverhampton Civic is a great venue too
Or to those coming from a few continents away just for Pearl Jam!
Anyone who has ordered with 02 Pre-sale, what is the ticket limit?
Would be great if you ordered for a show at Shepherds Bush too..
*EDIT* 2, found out some a friend.
Hey Ed, just found this on the blueroom site.
7. How many Priority Tickets can I buy?
You can buy up to six tickets for each event. It may be less, depending on the event. It's always best to check the terms and conditions when you click through to purchase the tickets.
2009 - Shephards Bush, Manchester, London
2010 - Belfast, London, Berlin, Arras, Werchter
2012 - Manchester 1+2, Berlin 1+2, Stockholm, Oslo
2014 - Berlin, Leeds, Milton Keynes
The amount of tickets depends on the event, the Faith No More pre-sale was limited to four but others I've know to be just two.

I think they're just getting out of bed over that way! They'll wake up to an onslaught of mails from us along with worried people about the sales today... it's never easy!!
I can't register for O2 events there, so I'm down one option :(

Nice one, Nathan?
So far I've got - Me and my brother on HMV and my dad + brothers friend on 02. That's at least 8 if all goes well (which is never does ;p)
If O2 give out a password to people, whats to stop others using the same one? Or maybe a password is assigned to only 2 tickets? Or would you be sent a one-use link like HMV are doing? All very wishy-washy, I hope O2/HMV know what they're letting themselves in for! I might even go so far as to get an O2 sim card from the UK (if they're cheap/free), and doing that!
I can't find anything about the PJ pre-sale on the O2 site. I'm still not convinced they are doing one.

I remember a bunch of people got turned away from the Astoria show because touts had been selling tickets stolen from the venue.
