    Right, voice of negativity here....how much are people willing to pay? When all is said and done, none of us have tickets, ebay is our only option. There is a pair of tickets for £375...split between two, that's not bad...at least less than i paid for the astoria. Who would consider doing this?

    I don't know how anybody else feels about this but I am not prepared to pay people on Ebay ridiculous money - for the simple fact that if we DON'T keep buying then they might eventually get the point and stop selling them on there for that kind of money! Ok, so the arguement being someone else will just buy them but I personally don't want to buy into that industry which is clearly corrupt, they clearly often get tickets before general sale and theyjsut get away with it whilst fans suffer. SO if I can't get tickets through here, or third time lucky through ticketweb today, then I will have to face it and just not go.

    Nothing to add. Agree 100%.

    i dont like the ticketweb 'queue' page. It takes aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees. how can this possibly work?! I'll be staring at a queue loading bar for 15 minutes then itll be sold out!!!! ARGH

    "'queue'" page ?? what's that then...?

    i'm looking here and get a listing that says to 'click on the icon on the left' to purchase ticket, but where i guess you have to click there's no link, just 'No tickets available' :(

    am i on the right page *gulp* ?
    Oh yeah? Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts, dunces, dullards and dumbbells - and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering hayseed, you - you've had enough of me?

    I definitely would. The way I see it, with travel, food, hotels and tourism, each foreign PJ show for me comes out at about £200. So by that logic this tiny show is worth at least that. Less than 400 for a pair is almost a bargain in tout world.


    My only qualm would be if the tickets were legit or not. The number of people who got fake tickets at the astoria worried me quite a bit

    Don't worry about my inane ramblings. Since when have I said anything remotely useful?! :p

    Theres a PJ link on the front page of TW, but through that there's no obvious "click here for tickets" link although both the date and venue appear as links. I clicked on the Shep Em link and it put me in a queue for some unknown reason (definitely not a ticket queue). So I aborted and just searched for PJ to get the proper listings page without the paranoia of something going wrong last minute
