Obscure Pet Shop Boys - New Live shows

[Patrick Bateman]

This is either very sneaky or piss poor. Just realised you don't actually have to purchase either version of the book to register. Now, IF priority had been given to those who do purchase the book then that's decent and correct, but this seems very misleading..

It is funny how as their music got worse, the volume of merchandising increased. This is basically an updated version of Catalogue, not the Dead Sea Scrolls. No need for them to be doing things like that.

I think you legally can't offer pre sale codes by only purchasing something.


£111.20 a ticket. two per person maximum. On sale next Wednesday at 10am.


I'm guessing there will be £1000 by Thursday morning on resale sites

FYI, we get the code on tuesday.

"Thank you for registering
We will email you an access code and instructions at 3pm GMT on Tuesday 18th November."

I just bought the Ltd edn book - will I not get an early access code then? I mean, to buy the book I had to sign into my petshopboys.co.uk account??

It's a cluster****

[Waterboy]

In my haste to buy the Limited Edition, I didn’t read the small print. What it actually says is if you want the access code, you need to click the link, which leads you back to the PSB store, and you need to register from there.

Music For Boys is being used as the music for the Socials advertising these gigs

I mean how difficult is it to announce CLEARLY that those that purchase either the standard or limited edition book get priority on tickets, rather than burying a registration link at the bottom. That way if scalpers and sell on sites want to get their grubby hands on tickets they would at least have to purchase the book beforehand. Not a big deterrent I grant you, but at least chuck the loyal hardcore fans a bone before anyone else..

Agreed. It should have been book purchasers only who get early access codes. In my panic I ordered the Ltd Edn book thinking that’s what I needed to do. Oh well.

[Frippe1970]

I am confused. I bought the book. Will I get the the priority ticket access? Did I miss something?

[drunk14]

Personally, I wanted to get the book as I was too young to order Catalogue back in 2006. So I don't mind any ideas which combine different conditions (it is as relevant as giving some priority to people who had bought Annually three times in a row etc.). However, now it's clear that's not the case at all. The thing which does not make sense is opening pre-sale literally to everyone. It's like an extra phase. That's it.

WHAT THE f***. There was NO clue whatsoever in the official store that there is a limited edition of VOLUME for sale. I only realised by reading it here - too late, obviously. How did that happen? I'm truly PISSED.

The limited edition was advertised through their social media channels.

[y3potential]

So, anyone can log into the official website and register for a presale code..?? That renders the whole thing pointless as it means thousands of people (fans and sell on scalpers) can get codes..

Plus an email from the Volume website, was how I found out about it.
