Yeah, from what I could see this morning the seats were poor. I'm taking the risk with the general sale.
Definitely, no floor seats right from the outset. I kept telling myself "these seats aren't good, don't buy 'em!" but I did and I wish I hadn't but at least it's a bit of security. If better seats are to be had tomorrow then I'll try for em. I'll gladly sell the tickets I have to someone who doesn't have poor vision like myself and my dad and wouldn't be too miffed about being up high.

I did the same with the O2 presale yesterday, I'm in N12, row G in the grand tier - but heck at least we're going to see the beach boys!

True dat, I'm just happy to be going (though you wouldn't know from all the whinging I've been doing). There's a smile on my face. Seeing the Beach Boys!

My seat's pretty poor -- though I should have a decent view of Bruce -- but I figured since I'm going to the Italian shows, which are standing, I'll almost certainly be right at the front for those, so I might as well just take anywhere for the UK show.

All roads lead to Kokomo. Exhaustive research in time travel has conclusively proven that there is no alternate universe WITHOUT Kokomo. It would've happened regardless.

I had other seat opprtunities but they were all "not-that-good" ones. I've been told that past B3 block you just can't see anything. Still hoping a good seat becomes available...
If I knew for a fact that they wouldn't come to France, I would settle for a not-that-good seat...

I'm not THAT stupid
No, when my bank issued my card they gave me a spread sheet with 9 columns and 9 rows, and each cell contains a code. When you do certain purchases on the internet, Mastercard asks for the code in a specific cell ("D2" for instance) and you have to put that code in... It's a security device. Not very practical, to say the least.

Block D2, row 14!
I'm in D2 aswell, row 8 or something I think. Sickened by all this reselling going on, would've preferred to be a bit closer to the stage. I'm happy to at least have a ticket, it seems there was a fair bit of disappointment with people missing out this morning.

Yeah I got nowhere this morning, probably lessened my chances due to having to by 3 tickets together. Glad I bought tickets yesterday.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for anyone who couldn't get tickets that they'll announce more soon.

Seems to me if someone really HAS to be there, it would be worth paying the 30+ pound upcharge by going to getmein.com.
Seems a small price to pay to have seats in A2,3 or 4
