Bouncing Istanbul ticket

I sent off one ticket for Istanbul to my friend in Stockholm. Unfortunately she is so darn busy at work, she didn't have the time to pick it up at the post office. Accordingly, the envelope was sent back to me and I'm resending it in the next few days hoping she will find the time to pick it up this time.

Sad news from Zagreb

Got an email today, one of my friends from Croatia cannot make it to the shows in Athens and Istanbul. She simply cannot get off work. This means I'm trying to help her out by selling her tickets for Istanbul and Athens. That won't be a problem I guess, what bothers me is that she will not be joining us. But, we'll meet in Horsens for sure.

Turkish delight

 
This is what they look like, really nice tickets and I like that Biletix has printed "Snow Patrol" on the tickets as well. Also, notice that they changed the "doors open" to 17:30.

Istanbul at McDonalds

At 6:45 pm yesterday, I was standing in a queue (rehearsing for the endless hours of queueing in Europe soon) at McDonalds in Helsingborg when I got a call from my friend. She got quite an interesting envelope today in her mailbox, from Biletix, containing 4 GA's for Istanbul. I suppose I'll have them in my hand next week. Feels so good to finally have the tickets here. One step closer to Istanbul.

Biletix dispatch?

Aparently, the Turkish tickets haven't been dispatched yet. The Biletix site says the tickets till be dispatched from 1 July. I sure hope the dispatch starts soon.

White as snow

What great news today. U2 has asked Snow Patrol to be the support act at the gigs I'll attend, Moscow, Athens and Istanbul. As for the gigs in Denmark and Finland, we'll just have to wait and se who'll have the honour to give U2 lift-off. But for God's sake, Snow Patrol again, oh happy day!

Very surprising

At 11 pm last night, I checked the Turkish and the Greek websites for tickets. There were absolutely no signs of capacity problems on the sites, it was a piece of cake logging in and I had all the time in the world to select exactly the tickets I wanted. I didn't buy anything obviously since I used my presale codes. Today, at 2 pm there were still GA tickets available for both Athens and Istanbul. This is quite surprising as GA tickets always are sold out i minutes. Too bad we wasted our 2 presale codes, they're not exactly for free. Also, this probably means that there will only be one show in Athens and Istanbul. On the bright side, we'll have a few days in those nice cities for sightseeing not forced to travel to next city immediately as we're used to. I wonder how difficult it will be for us to sell the spare tickets we have.

Maybe only me and Lia will be in the audience. That would be cool :)

4 GA's for Istanbul

Today, I got 4 GA's for Istanbul. Unfortunately they will not be delivered until after June 1, 2010 so there's a long wait ahead of me. 480 TL is roughly 2375 SEK (about Eur 238). That's quite cheap I think. Someone said that it's like I am pregnant with tickets, waiting and anticipating for like 9 months now.
