[Jamie]

I'm going to call him Alexander, just like his mother.

[Jane]

Ha, I like that. I shall refer to him as that from now on.:D

Urgh I can't stand him! I was standing near him when Dave said "this one's for you Zane" and he didn't even look up or really acknowledge he was getting a FUCKING FOO SONG dedicated to him. He had this too cool for skool vibe going on. Dick. He talks too much as well.

Looks like I was right. Band on the Run being played in the next hour on Radio 1!

When they played Regular John I turned my computer up and apparently startled my cat. I head a big crash and I have just investigated. I now have a broken vase. It was pretty, it had cherry blossoms in it. :(

[Jamie]

I refuse to listen to Moyles, so I'll just buy the album. There's a Raconteurs song on there too, so thats two good reasons to get it.

Of course.
I'd probably get it anyway, so the Raconteurs thing is a bonus. I bought the Live Lounge one that was out last year.

My nephew has recently put me on to them.

FUCKING SMS!! :mad:

Useless bunch of cunts.

Ok, so all of last week I was in London, right, and I got a text message on wednesday morning saying that they were going to attempt delivery on the thursday. I got onto the website and asked for a redelivery on saturday, thinking that my housemates would be in.

They weren't. That's missed attempt #1 and I accept that.

Then, without being requested, they tried to deliver again on tuesday afternoon even though on tuesday morning I had put through a request (which was confirmed) to have it delivered to my Mum and Dad's house this afternoon. And this request was put through before the cut-off time that they specify.

:mad:

Ok, so now we're on today.

My Mum's in, at home, and has been all day - she's recovering from an operation - and just by chance she rang SMS to see whether the item was in transit or not and the guy on the end of the phone said they've been marked to be SENT BACK as there was a failed delivery at my Mum and Dad's house today. She called bullshit on it because she hasn't been out all day and has taken a courier delivery of something else and the postman so the lying little fuckers have faked a delivery and my Supermum caught them on it.

:mad:

Told them in no uncertain terms that those fucking tickets better not be sent back or there'll be hell to pay.

Useless bunch of wankers the lot of them, fiddling the stats like that to make it look like my fault.

:mad:

I'm panicking now that the tickets are going to go back, I can't remember if I've already received the Sheffield or Cardiff ones! If I missed Cardiff, I wouldn't be that arsed because I'm not 100% certain to go yet but I am definately going to Sheffield so it better not be them.

URGH!! I hate them too. They are the Nazis of deliveries I swear. I feel your pain.

Of all the things though, they're trying to shaft me over it! :mad:

And i am not filth.

[The Nai]

I think SMS tried to call me this morning. I mean, as if I'm going to be up at 10am.

[stu250]

i have just called them about my delivery today and the guy said - dont worry - there are still 10 mins left for delivery up to 5.00p.m.

stu.

not looking good really, is it..?

[Jane]

It's good that they use a safe delivery service to distribute the tickets. I mean, we pay enough for the privelege, but SMS are ridiculous. Pretty much everything they try and deliver must be taken back to their offices at the end of the day. In theory I've re-arranged mine for tomorrow... let's see if they turn up!!

[Jamie]

Just loads of waiting round, because we had a tutor meeting afterwards...
But it just involved time-tables and a free alcoholic beverage.
Pretty good.

All that worry for nothing. haha :D

Someone I know is selling their tickets! Fool!

I'm not a fool.

On a good note though, SMS delivered my Foo ticket for the Sunday O2 show :)

And yeah, much easier presale.
I should re-phrase:

[Captain Stu]

Did they do the thing where you print off your own?

[Jamie]

Did they do the thing where you print off your own?

Not sure. I had to stick a customer on hold to buy them, and had the window shrunk down to a tiny size so that my boss couldn't see.

I hope I wasn't supposed to print them off.

[Captain Stu]

Not sure. I had to stick a customer on hold to buy them, and had the window shrunk down to a tiny size so that my boss couldn't see.

I hope I wasn't supposed to print them off.

Someone on The Womb (QOTSA messageboard) said they bought tickets and they were printable to save on posting hassle.

[Jamie]

Whoops.

Better check out my reference number when I get home then. I'm sure I'd have had to select the printing option if I'd wanted it.

[Daxter]

As far as I could tell there was no printing option never mind

[stu250]

after phoning sms this morning and re-arranging delivery for saturday, i have just got a text through saying "we tried to del. yesterday but failed so we will try again 21/9".

Ta for the QOTSA linky but it appears I will be in Egypt when they're touring so I'll miss out but hey I'll be lying by a pool in 80 degrees so who gives a shit :D

[Jane]

Aren't the 'print your own tickets' an option you have to chose on ticketmaster? I bought mine on Seetickets and there wasn't anything about that. I'd prefer to get a physical ticket anyway, I mean for fuck sake, they need to do soooommme work to earn the booking fees I have to pay! Cocksmokers. I hate ticket agencies.

[RockKat]

well if its anything like the egypt i know, then it will be you who will be giving a shit - and a bloody runny one at that...........:D

Mate, you wanna be careful, you can't have many chances left before they fake the final delivery and try to send the tickets back. That's what they tried on me.

hello everyone. :)

HELLO WIGGLES!! *hugzzzz*

Sorry, I went to bed after that 'hello' last night, I missed the 'how's it goin'?'!! ha ha

[arseface]

Yey! This thread is still alive!! How y'all been?

[Lara]

Morning all. I will not allow this thread to die, it's my last link to my holiday.:D

[stu250]

Mate, you wanna be careful, you can't have many chances left before they fake the final delivery and try to send the tickets back. That's what they tried on me.

i specifically told them that i did not want to risk these tickets being sent back and the operator said that wouldn't happen.

i am getting a tad worried about this.

stu.

[stu250]

on a side issue, i have just popped over to 'the dreaded' gigsandtours and got meself 2 tickets for qotsa in liverpool - no presale link, no mess, no fuss.

stress free is a understatement.

stu.

[Captain Stu]

There was fuss before, they released these tickets on the same sodding day as the Sex Pistols so the ticket sites were chocka.

I got ours on presale yesterday - I got 2 for Liverpool (me and Kat) and she got 5 for Manchester (me, Kat and 3 friends). That was truly the easiest presale ever - went on bang on 9am, was all sorted and confirmed within about 30 seconds to a minute. :)

[nursekitty]

I think that I would call and ask to speak to a manager and get his name and the time you called so if they do send them back you have a point of reference. A lot of times that you speak to the underlings they wont even bother to make a note of the conversation.

[Captain Stu]

Just rang SMS to check if my tickets are on the way to my folks house and was told that they are.

*fingers crossed*

[stu250]

fuck me, i have just read the setlist from last nights gig in n.y.
i will just paste it from the fillmore thread:

Hey guys, just got back, but that was one hell of a show. Im not going to have a voice for days. I'm so happy they started the encore with my favorite song too (Aurora). So I was actually lucky enough to score a drumstick and the set list at the end of the show. I was looking for picks and i looked up at the stage and I just saw it flying right at me. Just right place at the right time. For all interested here is the set list:

Pretender
Cheer Up Boys
Times Like These
I'll Stick Around
Long Road to Ruin
Learn to Fly
Breakout
Skin + Bones
Marigold
My Hero
Come Alive
Cold Day (on set list but not played)
But, Honestly
Everlong
Monkey Wrench
Stacked Actors
All My Life

Aurora
Let It Die
Best of You

Home


that is one hell of a show.

stu.

[Captain Stu]

My Mam just texted me, my ticket arrived! :D

*does a happy dance*

As for that setlist...

Times Like These
Learn to Fly
Breakout
Skin + Bones
Marigold

Enh, fuck those songs quite frankly.

[stu250]

i was more pleased with seven out of twelve from the new album aswell as "i'll stick around" (my fav. from s/t), aurora and my new found fondness for breakout live.

21 songs aint too shabby - hope they can keep it up.

A man was in a long queue at his local Tesco store. As he got to the register he realized he had forgotten to get condoms, so he asked the checkout girl if she could have some brought up to the register.

She asked, 'What size condoms?' The customer replied that he didn't know.

She asked him to drop his trousers. He did.

She reached over the counter, grabbed hold of him and called over the intercom, 'One box of large condoms, Till 5.'

The next man in the queue thought this was interesting, and like most of us, was up for a cheap thrill. When he got up to the register, he told the checker that he too had forgotten to get condoms, and asked if she could have some brought to the register for him.

She asked him what size, and he stated that he didn't know. She asked him to drop his trousers.

He did.

She gave him a quick feel, picked up the intercom and said, 'One box of medium-sized condoms, Till 5.'

A few customers back was this teenage boy. He thought what he had seen was way too cool. He had never had any type of sexual contact with a live female, so he thought this was his chance.

When he got to the till he told the checker he needed some condoms.

She asked him what size and he said he didn't know.

She asked him to drop his trousers and he did.

She reached over the counter, gave him a quick squeeze then picked up the intercom and said...



























'Mop and bucket, Till 5'

[Captain Stu]

which ones? manc from seetickets?

Nope, it must be the Sheffield one - the Manchester ones aren't coming directly to me, Bex bought them innit.

[Jamie]

Anyone got a spare Birmingham ticket? My hotel that I booked for the Stripes wont refund, but they'll rearrange it as long as I can give them a date before end of October.

Or alternatively, anyone want a cut price hotel for Birmingham?

I've got the same problem with Nottingham too, but Foo's aren't playing there :(

[Captain Stu]

Why won't they refund?

[Jamie]

Because they're sneaky cunts who love small print.

They wouldn't even rearrange the dates until I got my dad to call up and bollock them.

[Captain Stu]

What hotel is it?

I had a booking at an Ibis last June to see KunK in June, the gig got cancelled and they cheerfully cancelled. :) All done online too.

[Jamie]

Crowne Plaza in Birmingham and Hilton in Nottingham. All the other hotels I booked canceled no problems.

[Captain Stu]

A fucking Hilton? Jeebus. :eek:

[Jamie]

I'm dead posh, me.

[Captain Stu]

A ponce more like it! :D

D'oh.

I was originally going for "you just wanted to say you'd been inside a Hilton". :cool:

[The Nai]

I'm 98% sure I'm going to the London gigs. :) :) :)

Work said it shouldn't be a problem and I got my train tickets yesterday. I have places to stay now, too.

Only possible stumbling block is if I get a new job before then and they don't give me the Monday off.

[Jamie]

Don't most companies honour previously booked holidays?

[Captain Stu]

Don't most companies honour previously booked holidays?

I'd think so... unless they're at a really inconvenient time, like, say you've just started the new job and instantly need to go off, it could disrupt your training.

[RockKat]

I've booked my days off now :D

Must check last train times back from Birmingham.

[Jamie]

Oh, and my bank is now sorted, so I have money again. Woo!
I was down to £24 yesterday.

Depends. I've just had to cancel a trip to London to see Joseph next month because the 2 days I already had booked the woman who covers me is already off. Bit gutted about that.

I'm trying to decide if I want to go see something at the Regent now that I have money. Status Quo want £31.50 for a ticket, so stuff them.
I've already decided against East 17, 911, McFly, Ray Quinn, Ben Mills and Take On That (a Take That tribute band).

Help me choose from the rest:

The Proclaimers
Thin Lizzy and Queensryche
The Jam (The Clash)
That guy who won Stars In Their Eyes as Freddie Mercury

dude, its gotta be the proclaimers - my bro's band supported them about 20 years ago in liverpool uni (mountford hall) and it was fuckin banana's.
i only knew 2 songs and i swear they just turned up and played those 2 songs over and over again - or maybe it was the student union bar prices that made it seem like that.

No I really think you need to scrap this list and go back with the McFly or 911 option :p

Or we could put that fat girl with the long dress from tonight's X Factor on especially for you :D

I'm thinking it might be fun to see The Jam (The Clash) or Thin Lizzy.
My love for Queen makes me want to see the Freddie guy, but I know I'd probably end up disappointed.

Eh?

is it the real thing? a tribute?

cos Paul Weller doesn't play with the Jam anymore so it wouldn't be the same.
and Joe Strummer is dead, so i'm sure it isn't the clash...

Two out of three original members of The Jam, Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler reformed earlier this year and their 20 date May tour sold out instantly. This autumn due to popular demand, they embark on an even bigger tour, performing all the Jam’s greatest hits and more to fanatical fans across the country. The crowd and critical response in May was nothing short of phenomenal and now, in the year that marks the 25 anniversary of the original band’s final performance, the songs sounds as fresh and original as ever. Don’t miss this chance to hear That’s Entertainment, Going Underground, Start and A Town Called Malice live, and brilliant as ever.

evening all.

*hands behind back, heels together, feet at ten to two and bends knees*

just been debating, due to the fact that i have to sell my kt tunstall (liverpool uni) tickets coz its the same date as manc. foo, should i try to buy some for the apollo - its really not a bad gig (for a fan of guitarists) but the apollo is a bit bigger and less, y'know' small and up close - i will make my mind up next week.
