Oh happy day

So, the support acts are now all set for 2010. Horsens will be treated with two splendid Snow Patrol gigs and Helsinki gets two gigs with Razorlight. To be honest, I don't know much about Razorlight, but I have some time to catch up on their songs. This means I'll get to see Snow Patrol 5 times during the 2010 tour, a true joy. Something happened to me during the Snow Patrol gigs in 2009, something that most definitely could be filed as highly unlikely, turning from a pure dislike of their music to an avid fan. Wonderful things happen under the claw.

Down the drain

There was absolutely no chance of reaching the site billetlugen.dk. So, the hunt for Horsens 2 tickets goes on and I'll probably have to buy spares for a lot of money. Thank God it almost a year from now, there should be a fair chance of getting tickets. Damn, I should have bought 4 tickets for Horsens 1, then I would most likely be able to trade for Horsens 2.

100 000 fans queuing in vain for tickets

Countdown

It's ok if the tickets for the first show in Horsens are gone when I manage to get on the site as I allready have what I need, 2 GA's. I feel pretty sure they will add one more show right away and that's when I need to be alert and ready to buy. I feel butterflies in my stomach.

No shit Sherlock

"One of the biggest bands in the world"...no shit Sherlock!
I assume that as soon as the tickets for Horsens 1 are sold out, there will be a second show on sale right away. My guess is that both of the shows will sell out in about 15 minutes. Casa Arena is a small place, about 35 000 visitors at concerts.

Danish gold

Postal mail rarely brings you any joy but what a joy it was to find the tickets for Horsens in my mailbox today. Still, it's a reminder of all the efforts I'll go through in August to get to front row. Well, it's almost 1 year to go.

Horsens presale

Listening to "Unknown caller", I got my hands on 2 GA's for Horsens. I wanted RedZone but there were no such tickets up for sale as far as I could see. Maybe they already sold our or maybe you cannot buy those tickets during presale? I just don't get it but I'm very happy with the GA's I have. I guess the tickets for Horsens will be dispatched and delivered before this week is over. That is normally what happens when you buy tickets from Billetlugen.

Pay more for less

At last, the Danish ticket vendor Billetlugen has released some information on why there is a category of GA tickets for 800 DKK and one for 595 DKK. Turns out the expensive GA:s give you access to the stands at the side, almost behind the stage. I wonder who would pay 800 DKK for those tickets.

It may seem a bit strange with all this rush for tickets when there's almost 1 year til the shows kick off. Still, it's here and now it's going down and tickets will be gone in minutes.
