Very easy. Straight through to Way Ahead on 0870 1 663 663. I expected to be kept on hold, bloody Ticketmaster Beatles, but the phone rang once and I was there. Excellent.

Yep, same here. 3 rings and the nice man at Piccadilly Box Office did the business.

Why were you expecting it to be so difficult?? As much as I hate to say it, NO are simply not as popular as they were, don't know if they will fill LCCC but I am 100% sure they ain gonna be 30K inside Finsbury Park, I would love to be proved wrong & it would be great if they could fill the place but I just can't see it.

Were they ever that popular? I had hassle getting tickets for the gigs last October, Liverpool before that and the Apollo 98 but don't ever remember grief before 'cept G-Mex 88 when they oversubscribed the venue and returned the monies for 15 tickets I'd applied for (mare - had to get tout tickets which cos a whole 15 pounds each!). Before that, at their peak, there was never any grief getting hold of tickets. You could usually just turn up on the night and pick 'em up. It's only the modern era when everyone dashes to get tickets at 9am on the day of release, I'm sure this sort of thing never went on in the past... . .

Never had trouble getting tickets in the past for any New Order shows apart from the gigs in October when I couldn't get through on the phone so I used the internet instead.

I was expecting a few engaged tones for MCR gig before getting through though.

I tipped up at Virgin Megastore in Manchester at 8:45am to find a queue of.....2 people. Was a bit embarrassing really, but I am such a panic merchant that it was probably best for my health that I went along in person....
