I can see just the opposite - that there are pre-sales for everywhere apart from Leeds.

I'm generally a fan of just being online or on the phone at 9am on the day tickets go on sale, whether that be a presale or not.

I'm registered with Live Nation so will give that ago on presale day. For the Unleashed tour I got 4th row but that was directly from the venue.

Are people usually allowed up front at Lindsey's concerts?

I'd guess there isn't much chance of going to the front at these venues. They are theatres for the most part which are not designed for standing at the front.

I have to agree with that. Oh well, it means I can be less particular about my seat if I don't have to make the dash down front.

Oh hell - but going to the front is what we want!

Couldn't it be a possibility at Leeds? I don't think it's fixed seating there. You know, looking at that list I am pretty impressed by the number of dates he is doing "up north".

Well, I'm not complaining. I have a choice of four within a two hour drive

Is live nation presale available on all seats?? Or is it like o2 priority, where they quite often offload the not so good seats first?

Excited does not even begin to cover how I feel right now. Just had a really tough first day at work and this has cheered me up ALOT!

Edit: Also... I've read that ticket prices for the Palladium show are £45 (on Nickslive) but can't see that listed on the live nation website. How are all seats priced the same?

I was under the impression that only certain areas were available from presale. Venue staff told me today that I would be more likely to get a better seat direct from the venue the day of general sale rather than presale the day before but I'm not sure how accurate that is. In any event, I will try presale first and see what comes up.

On Ents24 website prices are listed as £42.50 for all venues except the Palladium which is £45. PhilLee paid £44.50 for Manchester so maybe the prices listed are starting from ......

My ticket was £42.50 plus £2 booking fee.

Gotcha! Looks like they may be all one price then but I expect booking through Live Nation etc rather than the venues direct may incur a heftier booking fee.

Just booked mine for the Lowry...hurry people...there's not that many left

Ironically, the last band I saw at the Lowry was Rumours of Fleetwood Mac!?
