lucky for me MK isnt too far away, last time i saw the foos was after they brought out one by one and that was an awsome show, never forget dave jumping off stage running through the crowd and doin a mssive guitar solo right in the centre. absoloutley cant wait! nd to have jimmy eat world and biffy clyro supporting is just crazy! support bands are usualy rubbish! lol

You've made my day. Now its 3 bands I want to see rolled into 1 ticket.

FYI Jimmy Eat World are only playing on the Sunday. Death Cab for Cutie (and Biffy) are the support act on the Saturday.

I've got Sat tickets. I've seen JEW before but would love to see them again. So I'm still happy.

Biffy would have been great though. Win some...

My post wasn't entirely clear - Biffy is supporting on Saturday AND Sunday. DCFC are playing the Saturday only and JEW on the Sunday only.

Huzzah! OH got tickets for Saturday sorted while I was in a meeting!

If anyone's interested, I think there are still some available via the Foo Fighters presale (as opposed to the O2 presale) - linky below:

I'll be having a gander on Friday morning for the MK ones. Not holding out too much hope though. I saw them at Wembley a couple of years back. Fantastic stuff!!

How much are they anyway?

[JonyPI]

50 quid near enough, unless your scum like this:

right, ok, so you accidentily bout 2 ore tickets, then why not sell them for what you paid? or maybe even just a tiny bit extra? why ask for £125 per ticket! a 150% price increase? by accident my arse

[useyourdellusion]

I'm interested for £50 then. For some reason, I thought they'd be more.

It seems to be impossible to get tickets for any of the big gigs these days. They have exploded in popularity over the last couple of years. I'll chance my arm though..

Just ordered 2 tickets for Saturday via the Foo Fighters pre-order website.

Took about 5 mins waiting in the queue so not too bad

Can't wait now, saw them at Wembley & they were fantastic!

[useyourdellusion]

Thanks for that. I didn't realise you could pre-order them via the official site. Have bought some for the Sunday night. Excellent!

So the whole o2 priority thing was a load of tosh then?

Ah well, not that it matters - I will be there on the Sunday...

Not entirely tosh - O2 customers had priority, but so did people on the Foo's mailing list. General ticket release still isn't until Friday.

Roll on july!!

Got 4 tickets for Sunday and 2 rock n roll experience tickets for saturday! Just hope 'SEE Tickets' arnt as bad as the reviews say!

[snotrag]

Get. In. Little sister got through on the phone and bought tickets for us for Sunday.

Missed out despite trying seetickets, ticketmaster and crowdsurge. When I checked on ebay earlier there were over 400 listings at overinflated prices, fking touts

[snotrag]

Heads up - They were also selling them as of this morning, rom the box office at my local O2 academy, little advertised so maybe worth trying if your near one?

[Donmeado]

I tried on O2 Priority from 08:58 and failed, again this morning from 08:55 and failed, yet there is 9 pages of tickets on Ebay. What a complete crock .....

Is your local one the one near walkabout in Leeds? Will try and get down later today

I have seen this happen for other gigs, and always managed to get tickets at either face value or even cheaper than face value in the month before the gig. Usually theres so many people trying to shift tickets that you end up getting some at a decent price. Heres hoping the same happens for this

Yep, there was an advert in the evening post last night for ticketmaster or whover, and in teeny tiny print it also said they were available from the Academy (building that used to be creation).

Worth a go as you never know if its not been really advertised, could be wrong though!

I spent ages trying to get Saturday tickets on Wednesday, then got straight on to the Sunday page. I didn't realise Biffy was only playing the Saturday gig, that's a shame as I was looking forward to seeing them.

What's the MK Bowl like? Is it easy to park?

[gib786]

Biffy Clyro are playing both saturday and sunday. Deathcab For Cutie are on the sat, and Jimmy Eat World are playing on the sunday.

[anonymous-user]

missed out but not too bothered. saw them at wembley last year and they were a massive disappointment. was hoping that was a one off...
