    Good times :)[/quote]
    you know my 1st spare goes to you. and I'll try to get my hands on as many tickets as I possibly can, out of the tuts hand and ready to pass them on to friends that miss out.
    We got to play it as a team!

    Oh and if anyone wants to organise a gang to mug touts outside the venue on the day, I'm in :evil:[/quote]
    im in for the gang... 8-)

    Do you have a link to this..I can't seem to find it. Thanks!!

    Go to the O2 Blueroom and check under O2 Academies and then Shepherd's Bush Empire and you'll see it.
    You need to have an O2 number to get in though.

    I love how we have 27 hours but ticket sales are so ingrained in us that we all enter the lottery in the first minute :lol:
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    I don't think I've been so nervous buying lottery tickets!! I think I applied early just incase they sell out of them... makes so much sense :roll: My poor credit card is very maxed out now too :oops:

    I'm in too. God, I don't know if I can stand not knowing! Especially since we've heard nothing yet from HMV about their pre-sale.

  • Lottery entered, and am on O2 so thanks for finding that priority tickets thing, I didn't even think of that.

    Was gutted to miss them in 2007 as the gig coincided with me flying off to start travelling for a year, can't wait for next month.

    Ok, all entered! :)

    So just in case I have to beg and plead with someone to sell me their treasured spare, how does the deal go down? Is it a meet at the venue and pay the kind person type job? I'm assuming you have to be with them to pick up the ticket so there'll have to be some face-to-face contact right?

    Good luck everyone!! gotta be in it to win it! :)

    you are absolutely right.

    For once I wish I was I had an O2 phone, just for that extra chance. Missed out on Astoria and nearly had a nervous breakdown then - my family and friends are more stressed out than me cos I'll be a nightmare til I know if I got any :twisted:
  • kazmokazmo Posts: 99
    Yep, I'm in too. Also got my alarm set for 9am tomorrow. Christ I'm a nervous wreck :lol:

    Cool, it's just - and no offence meant to anyone, I'm sure we're all trustworthy - I'd hate to book the day off work, travel to London, get outside the gig and my ticket doesn't exist and/or has been sold to someone else... is there any way to ensure this doesn't happen?

    I'm thinking so far ahead - I probably won't even get a ticket!

    Well, if you're getting it from someone here - best thing would be to look at post count and interaction with others. I think a lot of us know each other too, anyone I've met from here I would totally vouch for when it comes to things like this, except Dunk :lol:

  • LOL so true - we have all this time to enter the lottery but we all did it on the dot :-) I was so paranoid my laptop might break or the connection might go down or something, I sat on here before 5pm with crossed fingers and toes :)))

    Good luck everyone!! Really hope we all get tickets :) It's been nice talking to everyone on here!

    I haven't had an email from HMV either and cannot find a single link on their site about it :-(

    Well, that's fair enough... a bit worrying for me, though! I've been signed up here for 5 years but haven't posted in ages! I've been top class lurker! :) Hopefully some kind soul might trust me enough...
  • HI all - I just talked to HMV and was advised the following:

    Emails are being sent out to everyone who pre-ordered the album before the deadline. They started being sent out at 5pm and will reach email inboxes by 9am tomorrow apparently at the latest as the pre-sale opens at 9am! I asked what we should do if we do not receive the mail as HMV's helpline closes at 6pm and they said all we can do if the mail does not come through with the link in, is phone them at 9am tomorrow morning!

    FIngers crossed all of us that the email gets through!!
