    Anyone else here get free tickets?

    I got an email from 10c saying the free tickets are for the reserved section in the balcony, and for 10c winners only.

    They also said I would not be allowed access to the floor if I wanted to.

    If this is true, then I might be up for swapping for standard downstairs tickets if someone wants to have a no crush / great view instead of general admission to the floor downstairs.

    I'm sure the show will be amazing wherever we see it from, but (for me) the real action is at the barrier in front of the stage.....

    anyone care to comment?

    I got the free tickets but haven't had any emails apart from the one saying we would get a band for access to the reserved section?

    What is all this about age restrictions, i'd read that no under 14's and unders 16's got in with an adult

    i love you how you put the asterisk in the Mutha part and not on the Fucka part :) do you suffer from the Oedipus complex ;)

    i must confess i've been slightly tipsy last couple o' nights due to imbibing of red wine as a form of muscle relaxant... i have nervous exhaustion due to this gig... i struggle to sleep... i can't think of much else other than the Astoria gig... apart from the odd german sausage conotation ;)

    yes i'm getting pissed... :o i was going to go out and watch a tribute band but i want to save my pennies for London

    gonna have a wee drink at home instead and leer at women on the telly.... what about the rest of you band of miscreants and ne'er do wells? :)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Did they actually confirm balcony? I emailed them and they only confirmed that we'd be restricted to the 10C area. I'd definitely would rather be on the floor. Someone else in a different thread said there's nothing preventing someone from getting to the floor anyway, but I'm fearing this may be more strict with PJ.

    I must say, I am surprised that not only could 10C swing 50 pairs of tix, but that they are for the balcony as well.

    this is from my email from 10c..."The reserved section will be reserved for fan club winners only. You
    will
    not be allowed access to the floor. The reserved section is in the
    balcony.

    I cannot tell you what time the show will finish, but it will start at
    8pm
    and probably play for about 2 hours.

    Thanks
    10c staff..."

    I wanna be downstairs !! waaaaa !!!

    someone want to swap?

    honestly... you might be in the greatest place... the side of the balconies (normally fenced off for celeb guests etc..) practically hang over the stage.

    can i add here, therefore it becomes a legal preposition in facto de ipso add enneum ficta that myself and Wolfamongwolves have already swapped our upstairs tickets with JimNastics on this very thread... so nobody can get in before us incase you masters of cunning were thinking about it :);)

    10C didn't really think we'd prefer to be in the balcony, did they? Tix were the same price for floor and balcony, weren't they? How strange.

    I need to figure something out. I doubt it will be easy to find someone to swap with.... especially on here.

    did someone say we were getting wristbands if we were 10c winners??
    Would this mean that because we need ID to get our tickets, that it will not be possible to swap anyway, as we may get the wristbands there and then, when we arrive at the box office??

    this is affirmitive

    you need photo id i think to collect your tickets and i guess they will give you your wristbands there and then... dont worry about it... its going to be magic wherever we are.... isnt it?
