Just picked up a ticket directly from The Usher Hall where, bizarrely, I worked for the entire summer of 98.
Was in two minds following the absolute high of the Barras - just can't see that special emotion being replicated.
Then I thought "fuck it"

Oops, wish I'd read this before I had a massive strop about edinburgh hotel prices and booked the Glasgow Travelodge instead! Oh well... probs best to escape marathon mayhem.

Sadly I will have moved to Darlo by then, so no train buddying this time either

Haven't even thought about accommodation for this yet and it sounds like that's going to be tricky to sort...

Nothing wrong with Darlo, will be on a train from there myself, shame there's no later trains back on a Saturday night.

I'm paying £160 for double room, Don't want to but my partner in crime is refusing to go under four star - it's killing me when I could do the whole 'drive there, see show, drive back' thing

The price is taking my fucking eyes out like...

I'm more than happy to be moving to Darlo! The 'sadly' just referred to the loss of a train buddy

Gonna sacrifice this one. Usually try for the first date of a tour but this clashes with a festival I'm eager to get to. Ah well, I'll make do with Wolverhampton and Cardiff.

Ah still waiting for mine, buggers. Did you order from the venue or ticketmaster etc? Went straight to venue thinking they'd be quicker.

Shame, gonna enjoy this Edinburgh gig more than the last one when tour plague kicked in. Southampton can probably get fucked too..

Having stayed in a wide range of places of varying quality with sculptureofabloke, I can testify that they only thing he is picky about is panic-booking places ridiculously early, whether there's good reason to or not.

Yeah, I like Edinburgh and I loved the last gig there. Suppose sometimes I have to accept that I can't attend every single UK gig. I'll be at Temples Festival so I'll go straight to Wolverhampton from Bristol. Pint?

We ordered from the venue and haven't received our tickets yet, but it does say this in the confirmation e-mail:

Quote:
STANDING TICKETS are sent out by Recorded Delivery. A signature is required on delivery. If you are not in when the delivery is made, Royal Mail will leave a card indicating that you can pick the item up or arrange re-delivery. For security reasons, standing tickets will not be posted out immediately, but will be posted within 10 days of the event. Tickets cannot be collected from the box office prior to this time either.
So I'm not worried yet.

If I decide to come alone, I'll have a ticket for sale. Probably less than face value because it will be short notice. Just a heads up, didn't think it was worthy of it's own thread.

Just in case anyone planned, like me, to hot foot it back to Glasgow on the last train... Last train turned into a 2hr15 rail replacement bus. Forget that! Luckily found a cheeky student room in Edinburgh had popped up for not-too-silly money. I shall go to the ball
