Really looking forward to this show.me too... slightly disappointed about it being a seated venue... they don't seem to bring the best out of Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wild Frank Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I've just booked tickets. I've gone for a balcony seat to get a nice view. I assume, on a first come first served basis, that this will be at the front of the balcony. Sometimes its preferable to be further back in terms of sound etc. Bit pricy though. I thought they were gonna be about £20. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
keeprighton2 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 me too... slightly disappointed about it being a seated venue... they don't seem to bring the best out of Jeff the google sandbag tickets wilco took me to the wilcoworld tickets section and got in from there. all a bit starnge though - they've obviously shifted a hundred plus tickets already. anyway it is a big venue with a cavernously high roof - saw Divine Comedy, Sigur Ros, Ryan Adams and Dexy's there. there'll be plenty of good tickets left on friday Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I thought they were gonna be about £20.seen some of my favourite shows at the Festival Hall, and I can honestly say that I don't think the sound has ever been less than perfect now I think about it, I don't think I've ever been upstairs though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
50footqueenie Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Yes a bit of a bloody shambles - Take Note TMM!!! - however I have my tix for Newcastle and Glasgow. A bit cheaper than LDN - but those bloody charges - it's ridiculous and there's no shopping basket you can add multiple bookings for, so I had to pay twice for postage (again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

marc w Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 London Tickets are already on ebay for £299 for front row seats... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CrisBcn Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 General tickets on Sale.. Got mine!!!! London & Newcastle on this link:http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/search?tm_link=tm_homeA_header_search&q=wilco Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tblair Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 soooo...let's seethe pre-sale tickets on Sandbag (the ones at the front) were sold out before the link was up and running (how did that happen?). Then there's priority for members (of the South Bank) for 2 or 3 days, meaning the moment they're available to the general public all the best seats have already gone..?!!? a bit annoying really...

Hummingbird86 Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Did anyone else not receive an email about this? I'm pretty sure I've subscribed to the Wilco and Nonesuch mailing lists on two email accounts and heard nothing. I only found out about the new dates because I made a post on a Glastonbury forum where you put your mp3 player on random, took the first ten artists and assessed their chances of playing there. Wilco were my 10th selection so I checked the site to see if it'd be probable. As far as I remember, I bought tickets for London X2 and Leeds last year from a pre-sale linked by an email from the mailing list. So to hear nothing and then see front row seats on ebay for stupid money is really annoying! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marc w Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I got an email, but it was sent out after the pre-sale had started! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
