All the German-Shows but 02-OCT-08- Mannheim (another change here???) are already on General Sale in Germany
maybe they should change the Name for The Tour from "The Comsmos Rocks" to "THE CHAOS CONTINUES"
Yes, the chaos continues - after I looked at the FC presale and it offers only 1 type of tickets for every gig. How the fuck should I know if "standing" in case of Prague means "discounted standing" or "standing at the stage"?
10% fee? That's just great. Fuck the presale.
[edit] Vienna now disappeared from the presale.
[edit2] +15 GBP postage!!! Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!

What the fuck is going on!! Seating for Cardiff unavailable and as you say £49.50 + 10%.
Total f****** rip off and a f****** joke!
Think I'll risk general sale on Sat 9.00 on the dot!
I personally wanted seating for cadiff to, can't beleive they aint on sale yet...... i may risk the general sale to. *sigh* why so much for fee and postage, honestly!

Hiya mate! You will not get any seats on general sale my friend - if you do you are lucky! The allocation has sold out on pre-sales and the box office has said that only standing will be available. The seating ticks have been snapped up by greedy agencies and early fan members! I will risk general as well. There's usually standing available anyway if you log on at 9.00 on Saturday.
Standing is the only real option left. I don't want to pay £49.50 for standing when other people have got them for £39.50!

Good luck! At least you may have a choice of seat - unlike Cardiff unless you pay over the odds. I've seen some at £125.00 - rip off!

You might have notived that I have been busy over the last few days on these boards.!!
The whole pre-sales is a f****** joke!! I hope that Queenonline NEVER sells any tickets again. Leave it to the big boys/men and not the little children!!
I don't quite understand what you mean by "discounted standing". Standing tickets are usually the same price - front or back - unless they have a GOLD BLOCK - where people pay more to stand nearer the stage. Surely this would not apply to indoor gigs?
I agree with you - F*** pre-sales and take a risk with general. I don't like being f***** around by a bunch of idiots such as Queenonline!
I can already see there will be quite few of us on Sat at 9 trying to buy tickets :)
I was so often criticising TICKETMASTER... after that I don't think I will ever again say a bad word about them...

I wasn't sure about the right word. Yes, even in case of an indoor gig there can be a gold block, gold circle or whatever it's called. Prague is an example. Approx. 2000 standing tickets in front of the stage and other 5000 standing tickets "in the back".

Was it like that in 2005? The golden circle stuff?

I agree with you on this! As you can see I've been heavily criticising the pre-sales for last 2 days. I've lost all credibility I'm afraid in this pre-sales process. I of course wouldn't say this if I had booked tickets!!
If I recall the last time in 2005, there was a special tel number for members only with membership numbers a day before real pre-sales. This was a far smoother operation as you went through quickly, gave your card number and that was it. You received confirmation and seat number. That's the way it should be. It's become more of a free for all I think!
I also will not say another bad word about ticketmaster either as I called them today and they were very helpful. They reassured me that if you log on at 9.00 precisely you will be able to get tickets which was nice. There'll probably be a mad rush but I will get a ticket.
I've seen 'gold circles' at several shows at Ahoy Rotterdam and Sportpaleis Antwerpen.
(Last time I saw Tool in Ahoy they even had the standing area divided in THREE parts!)
Just ordered my tickets myself in Hamburg.... (living in scandinavia!!) very easy with seated places... tru link QOL could learn something from that site... though they did have problems excapting my foreign telefonnumber:)I will be there!!
