We regret that we cannot exchange, refund, transfer or return tickets unless the event in question is cancelled or details of the event are significantly changed (for example, show time, venue, date etc)
well i bought them anyway.... will ask the misses if she wants to stand or sit... then i will sell the others, if not to anyone on this site then on ebay.... not for inflated prices i hasen to add - dont agree with touting. ive done it before and just put a buy-it-now for the exact price a i paid for them, charge a couple of quid postage to cover the postage and ebay fees so i dont make any money off it whatsoever

Have just been looking at the seating plan. There is a stalls section and a circle section. I guess it will depend on whether they take out the stalls seating to make more standing room. I think I'll hold off for now buying seating tickets as I have already have bought standing ones.

Standing tickets are always on the ground floor. Seating is in balconies above the standing area. How close you are to the front, as I said before, depends on how early you get there and how pushy you are once inside. It's usually very easy to get MUCH closer to the front when standing - the seated balconies are usually relatively distant from the stage.

I just took a look at a different seating plan for Hammersmith - and checked out where block 11 row A is - it seems to be behind what will be the standing area. The seating blocks nearest the stage are blocks 25 etc - but the plan i have does not include standing. So I presume block 25 etc will be taken up and thats where the standing bit shall be.

hoorah.

http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/h/venu...ing_plans.html

typre the venue in on the top left, click search then chose standing as it will show standing/seating in the same diagram

block 11 is indeed at the front. i'm in block 7 at the otherside, though i'm in row F.

The left hand side of block 9 would have been the best place i think!!
