Good luck to those who weren't lucky enough to find tickets first time around.

I hope those that have tickets already play fair, steer clear, and let the less fortunate have a go. May hellfire, brimstone and chaos rain down on those that don't.

No need to worry about me - I've spent enough money on this "little" trip already to even consider looking at tickets for anything for the foreseeable future.

Bon chance!

Yeah, I quite agree. Please don’t brag that you managed to bag yourself a third night. There’s many of us who have missed out

I don't post much here, but have been a board devotee for 20 years and a massive fan for 39. I'm chiming in now because I'm getting so FREAKING excited as I will be flying in from Los Angeles for Monday's show.

I've dreamt about such a show for decades and even suggested to Neil during a SUPER meet & greet that they do something like this for the diehards and superfans, using Kylie's Anti-shows as an example. He warmly replied it wouldn't happen as it would be too expensive and no one would come...and surprise, here we are 10 years later!

I am so looking forward to being amongst a hometown crowd and feeling awash with the warmth and undoubtedly, the overwhelming devotion to our pop heroes.

Here's what I would thrill to finally hear live:


****Up Against It***
I Want To Wake Up
I Want A Dog
End Of The World
To Face The Truth
Bet She's Not Your Girlfriend
Miserabalism
Decadence
Hey Headmaster
It Always Comes As A Surprise
The Survivors
The Truck Driver & His Mate
King Of Rome
Nightlife
We're All Criminals Now
Breathing Space
Bolshy
Will-O-The Wisp
Loneliness
Party In The Blitz

What I wouldn't mind seeing/hearing again:

For You Own Good
Young Offender
The Way It Used To Be
Love Comes Quickly
The Sodom & Gomorrah Show
Vocal

And finally, "Special Guests" was stated in the show announcement so,

can we finally get PSB, Bernard and Marr up on stage together for "Getting Away With It" and "Disappointed"? 40 years seems to be a momentous enough occasion for such a reunion (and for the life of me, I am still dumbfounded Neil, Chris and Bernard couldn't be bothered during their Uni tour.)

SEE YOU ON THE 6th!

Pete Gleadall’s latest post. Rehearsing for Obscure?

If so, it would suggest it’s a band set-up.

I'm hoping the acoustic guitar will be used as an extra instrument over the top of a live version of 'Hit & Miss' with it's full.production.

Makes sense Neil might play one acoustic number though - any other candidates?

Another waste of time. Got to the front of the queue multiple times for different nights but no tickets left. Gutted.

[JSDOUVRES]

Feel very Lucky to get one for Thursday after Tuesday's was sold out.
Can't wait!

Another waste of time. Got to the front of the queue multiple times for different nights but no tickets left. Gutted.

Same. I hate this process of having my hopes raised then smashed to smithereens again.

Keep trying. I was curious and have a ticket for Monday on hold for the next 3 mins that I WILL NOT buy, but it will go back to AEG when the time is up.

One ticket only!

[Gabby]

Hoping this means I have saved back a ticket for somone on this forum.

[Gabby]

As far as I can tell all sold out now. Hopefully the one I had in my basket went back into the mix and to someone deserving.

I didn't want to buy it and go to that special hell I mentioned earlier, but I guess I could have bought it and sold it at face value to someone here ultimately. i don't really know what would have been for the best, but I tried.

[Flaffer]

Bloody hell I got a ticket.

Bloody hell I got a ticket.

Please tell me it was for Monday?
