how big are the venues? |
jeffreysig 25.07.2005 12:37 |
The Hollywood Bowl is pretty big, but not any kind of a stadium type venue. Maybe 20,000 or so. Radiohead sold out 2 nights there with no problem, Coldplay sold out 3 nights there. |
Crazy LittleThing 25.07.2005 13:05 |
T: The Continental Airlines Arena at The Meadowlands holds 20,000 for concerts. I had assumed it would be an outdoor gig at the Jimmy Hoffa Memorial Stadium, but the CAA is an indoor venue. link So, T . . . you survived The Talbot and Hyde Park! I tried calling The Talbot to say hi to you guys, and get the bartender to send you a Bloody Mary, but no answer. You guys must have kept them too busy pouring drinks to pick up the phone. Good work! -Cindy |

Oh God, these are the best news of the year for me!! Did anyone sign up for the Fan Club listing of U.S. members. I sent Jackie an e-mail, but I haven't received a reply yet. Please anyone let me know if they've been notified how to get pre-sale tickets. |
Erin 25.07.2005 13:34 |
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! *composing myself...* I hope there is general admission for the floor..OMG..:-))))) |

I just found this on the Fan Club website. ------------------------------------------------- PRE-SALES TICKETS FOR NORTH AMERICAN MEMBERS. By jacky Jul 25, 2005, 17:39 Email this article Printer friendly page It is now really really important that ALL North American fan club members get in touch IMMEDIATELY by email. We have STILL not been given the go ahead to release our mailshot, and it's now Monday, and it will take at LEAST three days to get to you... which might mean you wont get it in time for the tickets to go on sale to the public, let alone for the pre-sale! I am really sorry about this, but I can't release anything without permission, and although the letter is waiting and the envelopes are already addressed, it can't go til possibly tomorrow, 26th. Pre-sale to fan club members could be this THURSDAY 28th. <a href="link ME NOW<a/> to ensure I can get this exclusive information to you in time! All I can do is apologise that we have been unable to bring you this information in plenty of time, but things had not been finalised, and in fact possibly only WILL be later tonight. I don't want to let you down, so PLEASE get this news out wherever you know Queen fan club members gather! Email me with the subject line US MEMBERS, all I need is your name and membership number. If you know ANYONE without email access, get them to PHONE us (00 44 20 8392 2800) and we will give the info over the phone, it will be a short call and it's not a premium rate number! |
