Ticket pre-sale for October tour

[Hoosierette-xo]

Has anyone else bought their tickets from the pre-sale?

I have and when I rang the company up last night to ask when they would be coming, they said the beginning of October which I think is leaving it a bit late.....

Is this actually an official ticket website?????

i don't know..... my dad got mine at the carling academy.

Well its on general sale now
so you can get the tickets almost anywhere

I think they were more expensive for pre-sale. Oh well going to Brixton!

Tickets always come 2 or 3 weeks before the gig, don't worry.
Wasn't the presale ages ago?

I was going to pre order the tickets, but my mum said that, altogether, it was too expensive, so I had to wait for two days until they came out on general release. It was only two days, but I was still panicking! :lol:
So from what I've read about your trouble with pre ordering tickets, I'm glad I haven't pre ordered them!

When I ordered my tickets for their last gig, it took about two weeks to arrive, so (hopefully) they should arrive any day now!
And I'm going to the Brighton gig! :D Loads more THFC members than I thought seem to be going there, so I'm quite happy :D

Nope, but I did get this just under 2 weeks after I had bought 4 tickets for the Edinburgh gig :Cry:

Dear MRS S M LEASK

Edinburgh on 17/10/2008 has been cancelled, :bawling: and won't be rescheduled. :noidea:

Yours sincerely, See Tickets Customer Services

I called the Corn Exchange as soon as I got the Email, and they said they'd just found out too. The Record Company had said to them that it was due to a change in the bands schedule?!?!?!?!? :confused1:

Subsequently I've bought 4 tickets for the Glasgow gig, but I have NO IDEA how I'm getting through or back, as I don't drive :driver: I'm sure I'll figure it out though :tongue:

A change in The Hoosiers schedule? Surely they could just nip to the place for a couple of hours...? lol

There must be a train to Glasgow from where you live. You can go pretty much anywhere on trains and buses nowadays.

Getting there = not a problem :D

Getting back = slight problem :(

The last train back to Edinburgh is at 11.30pm and the venue (Carling Academy) as well as being in quite a scary part of Glasgow (What part isn't!!) is about 30mins walk from the nearest mainline train station. If I miss that then it's £50 or more :eek: for a taxi home. The gig is also on a week night so I'll have work the next day too - boooooo!! Also I'll be in costume (still in the planning stages) too so a prime target for getting jumped :afraid:

God!! I'm SUCH a moan!! :pound: I should just be happy that I'm getting to see them again.

I have 4 tickets, and 3 of them are allocated (Me, my sis and her pal Kathryn) So the fourth person I ask will hopefully offer to drive :driver: :wink:

I do have a couple of folk in mind, so we'll just have to see.

I can't wait til I can drive, because then I'll follow them around the country!
I would love to go to another gig in October, but I just wouldn't be able to get there. And no one would go with me..

I'm sure you'll find a way to get there and back! 'Where there's a will, there's a way!' :D

[Hoosierette-xo]

Haha, sounds like a plan (:
