    I may have missed them, but it doesn’t seem like many winners have posted on here, maybe only 3 or so.

    Any idea how many tickets were given out in the 10c contest yet? 
    I read 25 pairs of tickets somewhere.

    The pre order comp was 25 pairs, I don't remember seeing the total for the 10c comp. However, you are probably right, it was likely to be a similar number.  The venue capacity is 600, but I doubt that the listening party would have more than 200-300 people (100 or so comp winners (50+ pairs) and the rest industry, press and invited guests).

    I guess somethings wrong with my dm’s (Direct Messages, not Dark Matter 😉) as no one has messaged to offer me a spare for this yet

    Part of me is still hoping 10c find a few more tickets to give away.  I am only a 35min train ride away from the venue.  At the Astoria gig they released some tickets (I guess press that didn’t turn up) during PJ’s first song. However,  I doubt tickets would be released at the listening party if press tickets weren’t claimed.  I would assume that being pre-release they would want to know who is there for security and in case of leaks etc.

    Would it be worth just turning up? Any chance of my loving free tickets away on the door for something like this? With the venue size and only like 25 pairs given away it seems room for more

    I personally don’t think turning up on the day would work. They are bagging phones etc, so I reckon they would want to have a list of attendees.  it is unlikely that the would know if there were any unused tickets until after the doors open.  sadly there probably would be a few attendees dropping out for various reasons on the day and those spots will be lost.  Just one of those things.  I would love to be there but it’s not worked out that way.  Hopefully we get the next single this week, which will take my mind off missing out.

    I hear you bud, but expect it was limited to a few pairs at most and not everyone posts here. Hopefully those lucky few will at least feed back their thoughts afterwards :)

    A part of me was thinking it might ruin the Friday trip to the record shop and first listen experience...

    That's my 'didn't want to go anyway'  😂

    That's great news, you must be so excited.

    However not so good news for me (and others I bet) who had just given up the frequent email checking. Will try not to do the 3am ones this time😂
