    Straight in, bought 20 tickets between us, and out again. No we didnt get the more expensive ones as planned but who gives a flying fart as long as were sorted?

    Lass at the turnstile said 20,000 had sold yesterday.

    They had limited numbers of £45 and £35 but only in very small groups ie 2 or 3 together. Depends on how many you want.

    no they've all gone

    we queued 3 hours for some 45 pound tickets only to have to get 25 pound ones as all other prices sold out, we got served at 6pm last night and were assured there were absolutley none left except singles and small groups as a result of admin errors

    seriously?

    because if so that is scandalous

    there were at least a hundred people in the 45 pound queue, we were fairly near the front and we were absolutley assured there was no chance of getting anything above 3 together, they changed the 45 pound turnstiles to 25s and sold those to everyone on the assumption that was all that's left

    we wouldn't have been at the front of the queue but that is truly crazy, not a criticism of you, how could you know? but I can't believe the club told us all that when it was blatantly not true

    well to be honest they made out they were all gone

    encouraged everyone to opt for 45 quid tickets and made those who refused and waited for the chance of others sound stupid, in the end they convinced just about everyone to buy 25 tickets because there was little chance of getting anything else, especially in anything above singles
