Failed miserably.
Managed to get as far as placing two tickets in the shopping basket then it all went pear-shaped. By 9:40am only a few hospitality tickets were left.
The more I think about it the more depressed I get and I'm struggling to be philosophical about the whole thing at the moment.
Pah! Grrh! Etc!

I've not heard anything about dates being rearranged but the tickets were only being sold through 3 web sites as far as I know. Which one did you get yours through?

7 more dates!!!
I'm going on Friday 5th September, although I've accidentally booked the tickets on the same day we have tickets for the theatre. Oops. |
Probably means it is already sold out by now?

Managed to get a ticket , very lucky I think as the first ticket I went for was a Saturday and about £49 which was optimistic so then switched to a Wednesday and £95. Didn't expect to get it but it seems to have gone through fine. Apparently if I choose to sold it on then I would get 10 times what I paid for it. That's not right and not fair. Its academic though and I will be going. This is a dream for me. Kate is very special. I would only push the boat out for about 3 artists and the other 2 would be Pink Floyd and Led Zep if they ever reformed. I would even include a full blown reunion of the classic Genesis line up in the same category.

I do hope there is a real band and this is a rock affair....at least for part of the show.

Ugh. I had my alarm set to wake me up 10 minutes before they went on se. And I slept through it because I have been working late nights and was simply too exhausted. Really hoping she adds more dates!

I remember reading on Wikipedia that the band she used in the late seventies was the remnants of the pop group created by Alan Parsons called Pilot.
She should get Dave Gilmour,Donald Fagen and Steve Gadd for these gigs although that might annoy those that don't have tickets a bit.
