Elbow & The Hallé Orchestra

Absolutley gutted, just got in work and seen the email, they seem to be sold out on both dates. Anyone got any links etc where I could have more luck ? Been on Bridgewater and Quay tickets sites.

Have only just found out about this today, so gutted that its all sold out

Special Manchester guests? Hmmmmmm.....

Seen some people worried about the "cheap seats". Don't know if any of you have been to the BW before, but it isn't very big and a very nice venue. I've had both ground floor and balcony seats there and they are both great!

Don't know if anyone else has received a confirmation e mail yet. Ordered my tickets yesterday but still haven't got one. But just checked my bank account and the money has gone out. Guessing that it might be because of the overwhelming demand.

Huh, that is strange. When I bought mine something went funny with the site; I kept clicking "purchase these tickets" and it would take me back to the page where you had to fill in your card details! I was panicing cos the seats were really really good - row C on the floor - and time was ticking! My heart was racing. Then I noticed the box office phone number and called and purchased them over the phone instead! LOL!

Ugh, and that link on the Myspace page was a dud! God, it was a drama getting these tickets. AND I was at work!!! What I won't go through for Elbow!

I wouldn't worry too much, but you can always call the box office and double check. I'm sure it's OK though.

Wahoo, I will see you all there!!

Admittedly I was a bit surprised at how expensive the tickets were... but if I'm honest with myself I would pay anything to see them.

Ugh, I needed to lie down if a cool dark room after booking all those tickets! But it's all done and something to look forward to, not least meeting up with fellow elbowies!

Oh, but what a long wait!!!!!

Ha ha don't you wish there was a kind of Elbow points card? Go to 6 Elbow shows get the 7th free? I think we'd deserve it!

Agreed

Felt a bit low after Blackpool because there were no other Elbow gigs on the horizon. Thankfully, we've been put out of our misery

I KNOW! But every time we think "Tthis is it, no more Elbow shows for a while" then more are announced! But there will come a day when they will stop. At least until the new CD comes out. What will we do then? We'll need to set up a support group!! ;-p

I'm severely cheesed off that i've no Elbow gigs to look forward to, was pretty close to booking Paris tickets for a solo trip but finances dictated otherwise.

A few of us were in the pub yesterday bemoaning the fact that we were without tickets for the Bridgewater but worse case scenario is we'll be going down to try and bag one outside.

Anyway, should have the Abbey Road DVD flying through my door within a fortnight !!

It was all really short notice wasn't it? I mean, luckily I got the Myspace message or I woulld have had no idea!

Im still gutted that I didnt find out until the day after they went on sale.
am on the cancellation list, but im not holding my breath

You never know....

It was very last minute I think. Too bad they didn't giove more notice. I only got the Myspace message a half hour before they went on sale.

Hooray!

Tickets have arrived for the 9th July already!

Wow! You got yours already???

No - we got OURS already

What's this, our 9th Elbow gig in 12 months? I'm beginning to lose count. Perhaps we should suggest loyalty points?! Or maybe just admit we have a problem

Why is everyone getting their tickets and not me?!?!?!?!

I've not either. Still not even got a confirmation email. I am watching the DVD and staying optimistic.

I'm so paranoid I just checked my account to make sure the money went out. I was thinking "MY GOD! WHAT IF IT DIDN'T GO THROUGH?!?!?" But it did....phewwww.

Lucky bastards who got their tix already...

Hi Hilary,

Didn't expect to get them so quick and it's always a worry til they arrive. Don't worry, I'm sure yours will be with you very soon. Thanks for the tip off about the evening with Guy by the way. What a week we're going to have!
