I know everone (including me) is worried about tickets, as soon as they are on sale someone will post it on Buffet News. I am supposed to get 48hrs advance booking through O2 but have heard nothing yet. It is a bit strange as the Paris tickets are now on sale.

A number of folk I know who have been to the Paris shows say they don't really like the idea of the new venue (all seated?) and are thinking of just coming to London (Wimbledon final, JT at the O2 the next day..!) Me too.
I liked the New Morning (warts and all)

Dave,
Any chance you can take this link off, people are trying to buy tickets through it and we know it's a scalpers site.

Done

I know Germany is currently 6 hours ahead of the east coast of the US. Is the UK 5 or 6? Looks like I'll be setting my alarm to get up early

Well done! Did they offer you a choice of standing or balcony? Some concerts they dont open the balconies......
See you there

I am not sure. A friend of mine got me the tickets. I told him beforehand that I wanted standing so that's what he got me. I do not know if he was offered a choice.

Hi,
Just went through the o2 priority booking and all tickets are the same price (37.50 plus service charge and postage) and you can choose between stall and the two balconies. Looks like everything is standing. If you have an o2 mobile or o2 broadband it is worth registering for the priority service as you can buy tickets now rather than having to wait until fri.

Managed to get our three tickets in stalls standing as just now realised hubby's work mobile was 02.
See you all there. Now to find a hotel.

Just logged on to tip the board off on the O2 priority and you've beaten me to it
Yes, the Wrexham gang are sorted with tickets now. I didn't want to post in this thread until I knew we had tickets and were definitely coming, so now can say "Yes, see you there!!!"
and you can choose between stall and the two balconies. Looks like everything is standing.
The balconies are 'standing/unreserved seating', should you be that way inclined.
Beware of that great ripoff of our time, the booking fee, its nearly six quid a ticket

logged on to the 02 priority tickets and they have all gone, will have to wait for Friday. Last time I went the tickets were open, they did not restrict you to one of the levels. Saw mark Knopfler there before he started putting me to sleep!

Does anyone know the rules regarding taking a camera or video camera into the venue?

Still available it seems. If you're searching, its BUFFET not Buffett (deja vu Paris the first time!)

Dave,
Thanks for that, I was trying to change the level as my Mum and Dad (in their 80's) are coming and changed from standing to 1st floor seating and the system thought I was trying for 8 tickets. Done now and I have tickets.
