Congrats on your Paris tickets, AndreaRH!!
I gave up on the Paris show after I realized you can only book sections, not actual seats. Instead I concentrated on logistics:
- Flight to Hamburg -> check!
- Motel reservation -> check!

^ Thanks, Em! That's what's so great around here. You all know how it feels...

P.S.: The Eagle hasn't landed yet...probably heavy Christmas traffic...

Yes, Held og Lykke, Softanimal!!
You could still go for Hamburg, couldn't you?

@MJ again:
Just tried to PM you, but you have "exceeded your stored private messages quota and cannot accept further messages until you clear some space".
Would be great if you PM'd me so I can get back to you...dann auch auf Deutsch...

-
@MJ - No, not first row, "just" up-front. First and second row were already taken when I was booking. Probably blocked in someone's basket.
I still keep reading the booking confirmation mail. Still can't believe it!
When was the last time the band toured Europe? I know it's been a long wait...is it 1990? :confused:
^what MJ said. The only time I saw the band live was in March 1992, in Frankfurt. I still have the tour shirt, but it must have shrunk. Can't be any other reason it doesn't fit that well any more...

-
Well, now that I joined HCC I want this trunk shirt!

Does anybody know how I can get my hands on it? Will I be emailed for the size? I couldn't find a link to order it...
-
Thanks all! You will all get an in-depth review.

MJ, I went for 7th row for Hamburg, 3rd row for Köln and Mannheim.
You were quicker!
I might just have a look at those Paris tickets come Monday. It's a 2,500 seat venue (an old cinema), which sounds very interesting...
-
Honestly, It's a lot of money, but I'm fine with 122 bucks max.
I paid 99 EUR for the AC/DC Black Ice tour and was about a mile away from the stage.
And a couple of years ago, the Eagles played Mannheim and charged 160 EUR per ticket in that category. Which I didn't pay.
So basically, "overpriced" is relative.
-
^^what Susan said!
-
I paid 94 EUR, 88 EUR and 90 EUR for the three different venues. All up-front, center stage.
-
^or that furry?

Are you sure, you can put up all farmers to your flat? :eek:How many qm do you have dispose of? :confused:

Not that many.
But it's hard to turn a farmer down...

"I SURVIVED 2012 EUROPEAN TOUR TICKET PRESALES MADNESS"

That was fast, wasn't it?
I thought presales wouldn't begin THAT soon!
Here's my story:
On tompetty.com, there was a statement that said, "Highway Companions Club members will have access to special presales to purchase tickets for most shows". Now, before I finally joined HCC I wanted to know if the presales arrangement would aply to the German concerts. So I wrote an email last Wednesday and got an answer that didn't help me in any way. Probably my answer wasn't precise enough, so I wrote a more detailed mail. No answer came, so I didn't join HCC.
Then the big tour date announcement was made, presales for Mannheim was supposed to start in January 2012.
So I didn't join HCC, the Twitter session was more present at the time.
This morning, we had our annual works meeting, starting at 8 a.m. local time. I had my smartphone with me, but didn't keep my mailbox up-to-date. Then, at around 10:30 a.m. local time, it was the the union guy's turn to bore us into oblivion, so I checked my mails.
And, holy crap, there the announcemant was that presales for the German concerts had started at 10 a.m.!!!
I rushed out of the meeting (190 pairs of eyes on me), ran to my computer, joined HCC in a hurry, and -beads of sweat on my brow and too much adrenaline in my blood- ordered up-front-tickets for Hamburg, Cologne and Mannheim.
My blood pressure is starting to go down now that it's 4 p.m. over here...
What a morning...
Did any other German farmers get tickets?
P.S.: I DID!!!! YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! :043: :041: :026: :b55: :109: :sun_smiley:
-
Gotta hit the sheets now. My alarm clock goes off in 5 hours...
Good night, fellow farmers!

Cool, Susan!!
For me, the answer was brief, but it was an answer!

-
^Try getting Mannheim tix, you're more than welcome to stay with us, Marcia.
