It's a Manics forum. We're all over-emotional, cynical bastards who will happily complain at those giving us new, unheard material for free.

Well I wasn't that bothered about King Tuts either so...
Seriously though, I think it's cause it's a competition so maybe people don't want to get their hopes up? At least with King Tuts there was a higher chance of getting tickets. Or so we thought. |

The 'getting to hear new material for free' part wouldn't really work for me either, as a trip to London at 2 days' notice would cost me an absolute fortune. |

Indeed! Hence why I wrote 'or so we thought'. I didn't even try and buy any.

Aw, don't say things like that. If you win you won't be stuck for people to talk to when you get there. It's one of the few places that you're guaranteed to have something in common with everybody.

My enthusiasm isn't the same because I actually went to King Tut's and had an amazing time, whereas there's a high chance I might not even win a ticket for this one, so I don't want to get my hopes up (not to mention I can't afford to get there).
However, I will say that I am curious about this, and I am eager to hear how it goes and any possible recordings of new material. I'm waxing lyrical to myself about it instead. |

Oh well, Win Or Not, i will still go, and have a pint from 8-9pm, then stand and listen outside with Probably some stuff to munch from the sweet stall.
I wonder what time TK Maxx closes that evening?? lol. |

I'm in the same position, I'm sure if I am lucky enough tomorrow though that someone here will jump at the chance to be my "+1"
