Elbow and The Hallé - more tickets available

Has anyone got Lynne's phone number!!???? I've sent her a PM.

I simply can't spend any more on my credit cards or I would buy them myself for them......

Sod it - I'm buying 2 tickets for Wednesday night - whoever wants them - contact me.

Right then - I've bought two tickets for Wednesday - Lynne /Lynne's partner OR Mr and Mrs Woman have first dibs - whoever gets back to me first. If they don't want them, they're up for grabs.

I feel sick....

Thank you so, so much for posting that Tom. Bridgwater Hall, here we come!

Mrs Woman / Lynn - I've got 2 spare tickets for either of you.

I'm so glad I discovered this.

I was away when it was announced, so had no idea about it until it was a sell out. I've been checking the MIF website every day for the past month or so and, today, thought it was odd that there was a Book Tickets link on the listings page even though it said SOLD OUT in big, bold font above it.

Even when I was selecting my seats, I fully expected it to tell me that there weren't any available - like you get on nasty Ticketmaster sometimes - but once I started putting my card details in, I was a bit nervous until I saw the confirmation page.

Lots of love to Ticky for thinking of us. Lynne, those tix of Ticky's have got your name on!

Cheers for the heads up Tom, that's me there for both nights now !! Think I may have got the last ticket, it's in the Gallery.

Nice one Mrs Woman, hey, you did me a good turn and now you get one back ! Karma I'd call that ! I've got another single ticket for tomorrow aswell !

Oh, did Magic Trevor see this?

bugger, that serves me right for not logging on until now. Would have tried to pick up something for Wednesday.

Oh well, very pleased for those folk who managed to get some tickets after all, and beat the touts at the same time.

Awww!!! Fantastic!!!!!!!!
So, so happy for everybody!!!!

Thank you thank you so much for that Ticky.

I'm forever in your debt. Cannot believe how much you've made my day.

Yes Yes Yes - it will be like Monday evening all over again with the added bonus of wonderful music thrown in!!

My other half has managed to get the day off, babysitters sorted, Manchester here we come.........

Thank you so much Ticky for thinking of me, that's one of the loveliest things somebody has done for me.

Everyone is so great on this Forum.

Will settle with you on Wednesday when hopefully your account will once again be in the black.

I cannot function today. I haven't eaten, the same as yesterday. I'm going to look like Kate Moss at this rate. So looking forward to seeing you all and some more new faces. The Halle, here we come.......

Heh, thanks - the Church of Elbow blesses its followers once again! Glad you got one for Wednesday too, great stuff. We'll see you in the pub!

Last few to be released this afternoon - call the Bridgewater Hall on 0161 907 9000.

There does seem to be a patron saint of Elbow-fans....

Does this sort of thing always happen at the last minute.

Are a few tickets kept back or are they returns?

I'm new to this ticket buying lark and have been trawling Ebay for some month or so now. Was at the brink of offering some greedy arsehole 150 squid (and they he wouldn't accept it anyway). But Ticky jumped in and saved the day. Maybe I should hang on in future but it's always a bit of a risk.

I don't care because we're now leaving and on our way. Manchester here we come.

Safe journeys everyone.


See you all soon.

For most gigs, I'm always well sorted prior to the event, but I've been working like a beaver trying to get more tickets, which I have, so scrambling around at the last minute is new to me aswell Lynne !! My guess is that they are returns but I could be totally wrong. I tell yer, I'm stressed out with it all, should be having a nice peaceful and stress free day.........I need a lie down !!

I hate buying tickets...I always feel I need to be sedated afterwards.

Sometimes this happens after the band have set up the rig and sightlines that may have been in doubt become valid for seating.

Happened with Genesis at Old Trafford two years ago.
