So no wristsbands or whatsoever ?

Just a stamp on hand which nobody cared about. Maybe to prevent same person from getting 2 pairs.

One thing:

Ticket they gave me has a different order # printed on it than my actual order # was. So they do shuffle the deck.

You pick the envelope yourself.

I was handed an envelope.
(6 pm, block 109 row 17)

They were also not bothered about checking the credit card, but there were several windows open so may have been different there.

Lucky Dip still available for London 2,Southampton, Coventry & Cardiff.

Sold out (again) for Edinburgh, Manchester and Twickenham.

Sure do appreciate the continuing LD feedback, how the lines went, how things were done, where the seats were etc etc... it is a nice data base, Thanks

What time did Lucky Dip pickup start for London Tuesday? Did you have to go right in? What about if you’re alone?

1pm. Outer Perimeter opened at 3, stadium itself at 5. Between collection and entry, you could do whatever you wanted. I had a single lucky dip. People with multiple LD tickets, could collect alone as far as I could see.

Which section did you get on Tuesday?

Yes, people with a pair of tickets were able to pick them up on their own and walk off with them.

syrel

London 2 button still on RS.com but AXS site says sold out.

Just got my LD email for tomorrow:

"Box Office B is open from 1PM - 6:30PM, please see the map below for location. We advise you arrive early to avoid queueing, between 1PM and 3PM, to collect your tickets."

Note the ticket office closing time! It did not say that for the first show. We rocked up about 6 pm with no sense of urgency.

Has anyone had to produce visual ID when collecting their lucky dips yet ?

Or is the credit card and info number all you needs ?

We scored Gold Circle!

how'd you london 2 people do? looking forward to lucky dipping coventry next week after GA at London 1

Not asked for credit card at both London gigs. But asked for photo ID, which was carefully scrutinised.

Same.
We got gold circle today, delighted.

For London 2, I was initially allocated a single distant nosebleed but collected my ticket in the company of friends - a family of 4 who got a pair of GAs and a pair of GCs. A sympathetic ticket office on seeing we were all together upgraded us all to GC and we were ecstatic. Once inside we grabbed an amazing spot tucked right into the corner on Keith’s side, next to the Pit. I recognised a good few faces in the Pit - Beast And Topi amongst them. I bumped into Beast and Flairville in the street at the end as the crowds dispersed. And to top it all off, we got that performance.

Got 2 Golden Circles and one GA on my three London 2 Lucky Dip attempts.

Would have been perfectly happy with GC but was given a free Pit B!

A great way to top off my 10 day trip of peace and music.

Edinburgh next. LD there as well.

Hi Topi, I watched you opening your LD envelope at Show 1. So am I right in saying that you scored Pit for both London shows???

I’ll be in Edinburgh too - my home national Capital.

2 Dips in and I’ve Scored 1 GA (front row) and after a bit of jiggery pokery, a GC in a great viewing spot.

Onwards to Southampton we march, Mick’s voice permitting....

Yes I scored Pit B for both but only with a little help from my friend. He just gave me his spare Pit!

I scored Gold Circle for both London shows but somehow made it into the pit…

Good opportunism I think a few people did that because Pit Keith side looked very packed on Friday night. I was just outside it in GC. Pit and GC wristbands were similar so probably not too hard to do.

On tuesday around 9am received a mail inviting me to pick my LD before 3PM.
So i did and My name was in bold on the sheet??
I could choose an enveloppe among 6-8 and got 2 Golden circle.
The beautiful polish girl was smiling a lot...
Everybody before or after me got the same at that time or better (PIT).

On friday, no mail but i came at 2pm and got 2 Golden, one more time with the same polish girl (Rigged ?)

Why and how would it be rigged? I don't think the box office staff know what's in the envelopes.

Tuesday I arrived about 6pm, was handed an envelope. 2 excellent seats, block 109.
Friday, 3.30pm, invited to choose from 12-15 envelopes fanned out. Gold Circle.

Thank you Jesus. Thank you, Lord.

On Friday they just handed me one envelope, I did not get to choose.

Was happy to help a friend (leteyer) out with a spare Golden Circle and the two spare GA's I had I also handed forward (to GJ

The earlier you come (real fan) more chance to get a good ticket.
It's very to say to the staff : these enveloppes must be proposed to the first ones.

After 4-5 pm, you propose all the other enveloppes.
