Question regarding the UK stadium shows

TwistedPolitik · 18-02-2012, 09:38 PM

I understand they're all probably sold out. But does anyone have any idea if absolutely any of the UK stadium dates have any tickets left (standing or seating, doesn't matter)? And if I can't get any tickets from Ticketmaster or the likes, would it be worth checking eBay or anywhere else I can buy tickets? I know it's probably an impossible question, but I just wanted to make sure that all options are well and truly gone. I'm meant to be seeing a band this year at some point with some friends and besides Coldplay our only option is Red Hot Chili Peppers. I'd be content with seeing either band, I just want to make sure I know what the options are. Thanks.

I know absolutely nothing about what's available, I just wanted to post here.

There are still tickets available for 7 and 10 June (upper tier).

chuck kottke · 18-02-2012, 10:21 PM

What about blimp seating? Any real sky-box tickets??

try having a look yourself on a website...
gigsandtours for example

dman23 · 19-02-2012, 07:44 AM

I for example bought my tickets through VIAGOGO (still waiting for the tickets to arrive)
I suggest you search there or similar well known websites
good luck

You can find the tour dates here

7 June: Sunderland, Stadium Of Light
10 June: Manchester, Etihad Stadium

And the tickets I was talking about are available on TicketMaster, tickets for other dates are also available on sites as viagogo and GetMeIn but you'll have to pay a lot more!

TwistedPolitik · 20-02-2012, 09:57 PM

Thanks! I went on Viagogo. The plan is the five of us are gonna get our tickets in the next week or so, can't wait!

dman23 · 21-02-2012, 10:41 AM

when are the tickets supposed to be sent?
how much time before the event?

TwistedPolitik · 21-02-2012, 03:28 PM

I meant we're gonna order them in the next week or so, when I saw Muse at Wembley the tickets got to me less than two weeks prior to the show but when I saw Muse at Sheffield they got to me for about August and the gig was in a November. So I'm not sure when tickets would arrive.

J4MIE · 22-02-2012, 10:27 PM

I've been told that my ticket for Manchester on 10th June will start being sent on 20th May.
Bought a ticket for Madrid on a Spanish website and I got it delivered a month ago........ just hope it's genuine!!

Yes there will be xylobands. Well, according the guy who created them, Jason Regler, he tweeted several times that there'll be xylobands at every show of the tour.
