Anyone else trying to get Foo Fighters tickets via 02 priority?

Got any tips on speeding up the whole "your request has been placed in a queue" thing? It's early doors but nervous I'm gonna miss out, as I have in the past with these things - I will cry for a week if I don't get them.

I hate touts with a passion, that and eBay touts, s, the lot of them.

I on the other hand managed to get 2 standing for the 2nd. thumbup

It took about 45 mins, but it worked!

Up to 4 hours to get confirmation though, so I wont start booking flights just yet!

Been queuing since 9.00. I see the s are putting them on ebay now. I just want to tickets at the right price for me and my friend. I will NOT pay the touts and would rather chew off my own foot than pay for them to jam up the system to make a profit off me.

Ooh I am angry.

ETA: Oh I give up I cant spell queue (ing) as I am wound up.

ETA Again: Yay, got 2 for the Sunday. So the touts can shove it!

Had them by 10.

The site says they are sold out. But it maybe they are all reserved, by people in the queue.

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...
