Already done that several times, going down on the saturday, fine, could get it for about £30, but coming back, they wanted £99.

Went to somerset for a college reunion at the beginning of this month, was quoted £45 by that option, called in at my local station and got it for £34.50, so it's the station for me every time.

Good on ya for mentioning what you'd done though!! :)

Postby rockmonster » 27th Jul 08, 21:22

Here's a couple of links for tickets on ebay. I wish I'd seen them before being robbed blind!

Oh, if I had a spare £75 - mind you, that's a hell of a mark-up! I've been let down by a person who shall remain nameless :evil: Not happy, as I went and booked trains and hotel. Learnt a lesson there, I'd say!

If you havent cancelled your hotel or train I reckon it'd be worth risking it with the touts as you might be able to barter them round to a price that even if you end up paying double the face value you're still not having to fork out 75 and if you dont get a ticket then you get a day or two out in london which cant be bad.
Did you just say "Pig Flute"?

It's possible I may have a spare ticket for sale for the Shepherd's Bush gig. I'll post back when I know for certain. Not going to ask for huge price, just the price I paid for it.

Newcastle, right?

Currently on www.megabus.com you can get down there - leaving Newcastle 8.45am, arriving London 3.25pm, for a pound. And you can get back the next day for six quid.

Just south of, yes.

Thing is, Newcastle United are playing at West Ham the day of the gig, so I'm planning to go to the match as well (I know, a dose of pain to go with the pleasure of the gig, ying and yang and all that shite lol), so I need to be in the capital by about half one at the latest, so that I can get over to Upton Park etc etc, so the bus is impractical for that.

Anyway, I bought my ticket to London today, I change at Durham and Leeds, but I get there for 1pm, cost me £27.

Currently awaiting the tickets for the return journey being released, as long as it's around the same price, I'll be happy, looks like I'll be doing the whole weekend for about £200

Aye, that's what I was going to do, if I hadn't managed to get one before then. It's always worth a chance...

Cheers.

Andy, if you do and I get it (well, there's probably lots of others wanting a ticket too!) and you're also going to the gig, I shall buy you a drink or two!!!

Don't know if anybody's already mentioned this, but for people looking for hotels in london that night there's an easyhotel in earls court (about a 15 minute walk away) with rooms still under £50 for 2 people. Me and t'other half'll be kipping there so we can both have a drink and not have to dash for the last train home - horrah!

*boing*boing*boing*boing*boing*boing*boing*

see ya'll there

The Wembley Hilton (which a few of us are going to be in) is charging £47.20 through their website. That'll require a tube trip afterwards but that's not such a problem.

And you can get about £3.50 of that back if you sign up to www.topcashback.co.uk and book it through your own affiliate link,

heya - I can't make it anymore, so stuck my ticket on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=190244377801&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=009

I started the bidding at face value..........gutted that I can't make this gig & double gutted that they're not playing nearer to Bristol on the December tour - haven't seen them since the last album came out & really want to hear Destroy All Monsters / Routing For The Bad Guy et al live..........
