    Do bear in mind that you need to get a shuttle bus from the venue to the train station.

    So assuming it's not a trek... you should make it. I would keep the number of a hostel handy.

    The dutch train service is actually pretty good. Well a lot better than the UK one.

    Man i'm getting nervous about tomorrow, if i don't get floor tickets i'll go insane.. I'll be getting up early tomorrow, and yeah i'm fucking excited!!

    i think the lack of responses here is cuz all the action is on the dutch forum..

    night trains: if there's a concert they (ussually) keep a connection open to the Randstad (A'dam, R'dam, Utrecht and The Hague), i wouldnt worry about that.

    further i know nothing about Arnhem, only saw the Gelredome twice and some terrace, a liquor store and a coffee shop when U2 performed there in 2000..

    Thanks for this!

    Although the budget part of the name should be taken with a grain of salt.

    I still have a ticket left (I got the confirmation earlier today), but I would like an Antwerp one in return.

    Hi there,

    I have a spare 10c ticket for Arnhem and I 'd like to trade it for a 10c Antwerp ticket.

    Anyone interested?

    I already made the trade so my spare ticket is no longer available!!

    I would not try to order tickets through this site. They were selling tickets for arnhem as soon as i got back from Astoria, now way they could have had tickets available allready.

    If you google on this site you'll find a lot of complaints, like putting fake tickets on the market, not sending tickets at all, no refunds etc etc. They also get mentioned on the site of TV program "Kassa!".

    DO NOT TRUST.

    €110 euros a ticket is a little over the odds. I bought mine from http://www.kartenhaus.de... they are now sold out, they were €140 for two which is still more than the ten club tickets....

    Yeah I cycled past the wee booth at Leidseplein... there was a few people, but not the sea of PJ fans I expected... I think some of them were just Oma's there for the keukenhof. Either that or eddie is getting an older following.

    Got tickets too for Arnhem via Ticketmaster. Was pretty easy to get them. Seems they have some good IT people in Holland who know how to handle such mass visits to websites :-)

    Hehe, well didn't i see some people complaining about ed's age showing off? Maybe they're not the only one's who noticed, and some oma's may see oppertunity's rising :D

    How strange. I tried online just in case some of my friends didn't succeed but for 30 minutes all I got was "too many users - try again in a couple of minutes".

    Ah well, I think my friends got their tickets anyway!

    Oma's for the Keukenhof! Hahahahahahahahaha :)

    It could be quite a fight.... grunge heads in flannal shirts wielding guitars, against tante leen's flannal under wear wielding albert heijn bags....

    haha, man how long have you been living in the netherlands? You sure know how to define inburgering.

    Well if tante leen brings in the albert heijn bags, ill sure bring and go smelt de kasen!

    They must have picked up on 'seating by seniority' and thought it applied here too.
