Nothing amiss with respect, but I bridle at "reserve"!!!

This is just perfect!! At 21x21 I saw Kimono, Propaganda, Indiscreet, Lil' Beethoven and Hello Young Lovers. Number One In Heaven was definitely the album I most wanted to see besides those ones, and now I have the opportunity. And it's on a Saturday night! If it was any other night I wouldn't be able to go because of work!

I wonder if they will be playing the same "selection" at both gigs or if they will be different?

Possibly because they consider Morrissey as a good friend????

Maybe to get a higher chart position and shift a few more copies of Exotic Creatures,to gain more fans,get more exposure,appeal to Morrissey's mass army of dedicated fans-that could possibly be my reasoning.Boring or not he sells snow to eskimos mate.

What fantastic news to cheer up a cold miserable January. Me and my other half will be there. My apologies to anyone who has to stand behind him. At 6ft 4, I may have to get him to duck down a bit :-). Looking forward to this now especially after missing the last set of gigs.

Does anybody know of any cheapish hotels nearby??

Do you need to book twice or can you book both nights on the same transaction (i.e. only 1 lot of card charges) ?

So many of you have your tickets so what was the situation about ordering for 2 nights ?

I got 2 tickets for Friday through See Tickets and Saturday through Ticketmaster (don't ask!).

If you go through Ticketweb you can add to basket and overall I could have saved £2 if I'd done it this way www.ticketweb.co.uk

Hope this helps and that if you save £2 you'll buy me a t-shirt and a beer at The Forum

Thanks, all sorted will be at both nights - certainly looking forward to No1 in Heaven having seen Kimono before

Woo-hoo, just found out about this from the Mean Fiddler newsletter. I really have to pay more attention!

Re this printing-out-your-own-ticket thing - I may be being naive, and have a rollicking good laugh if I am, but what's to stop people printing out / photocopying multiple 'tickets' and flogging them....? I know sellers may save on postage, but what will this cost in fraud...?

Providing you were the first person to have that unique barcode scanned at the door, you would get in using a duplicate ticket!

Mmh all sounds a bit hit and miss relying on chance and timing...not that touts would worry...but as was said earlier who in their right mind would by a print-out bar code from a tout.....hookey tickets are a big enough risk!
