sorry to hear that... sometimes ticketmaster find more tickets and start selling them without announcing it... so keep checking there. also, they often hold back some tickets until the night of the concert and sell them just before the doors open to prevent people from making a profit from selling extras... and there are always people who have spares on the night, though it's probably too far to go from donegal just hoping for a ticket... good luck anyway

Yeah, I'm sure someone will sort you out eventually. You could always handwrite a letter to the band asking for some help... they seem like obliging folk. Did you not get a ticket to the Picnic? 'Cause he's playing twice there.

Nearly wet myself with excitement when I see the gigs advertised in the Evening Herald. So, I noticed that the tickets were on sale on the day after (when I first seen the ad in the paper).

So, I said to myself I'll be up nice and early to get into Stephen's Green for ticketmaster.

7am: Alarm goes off, Bryan decides to sleep.
7.30am: Alarm goes off again, Bryan decides to sleep some more.
9.10am: Bryan wakes up again, and realises that he's too late. Bryan then decides to sleep some more.

I've only myself to blame.

You sure do. They went on-sale at ten, not nine. You could have gotten them by phone or internet.

Well, it said tickets were on sale at 9, not 10, didn't it?

that just made me smile. i mean, not the fact that you didn't get any tickets. but the thing with the alarm going off and falling asleep again reminded me sooooo much of myself. sometimes it's not so handy if you're late for the breakfast shift then... but i have to say, everything turned out fine then.

i didn't get tickets either just due to the fact that i wouldn't get the time off as i already need some days off for the picnic... but at least i'm seeing him there - hopefully...
