Counting down....

and non-Brits should remember it's still BST, not GMT.

Got mine - Sunday and Monday.

Just got my tickets for Monday December 15. Anybody fancy meeting up for a drink before hand at The Stones pub nearby? Should be amazing. Saw Lucinda Williams there last year and it's really small. 1500 people max I'd say.

I got two downstairs standing tickets for Sunday, 14th December.

Did anyone get the same for Monday and want to accompany me on the Sunday and I go with them on the Monday?

Cheers

I'm in for sunday! I can't beleive it, it was almost too easy...

Why can't getting Stones tickets be so easy? And why can't the Stones take out the seats of arena venues so the fans that want to really see them have a chance of getting there early and doing so. I'm sick of all these corporate tossers getting near the front while us fans end up in the rafters or at the back.

Beast and I are in ... both nights !!

I CAN'T EXPLAIN ........................................................ !!

Got a feeling inside (Can't explain)
It's a certain kind (Can't explain)
I feel hot and cold (Can't explain)
Yeah, down in my soul, yeah (Can't explain)

I said ... (Can't explain)
I'm feeling good now, yeah, but (Can't explain)

Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling blue
The things you've said, well, maybe they're true
I'm gettin' funny dreams again and again
I know what it means, but …

Can't explain
I think it's love
Try to say it to you
When I feel blue

But I can't explain (Can't explain)
Yeah, hear what I'm saying, girl (Can't explain)

Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling bad
The things you've said have got me real mad
I'm gettin' funny dreams again and again
I know what it means but

Can't explain
I think it's love
Try to say it to you
When I feel blue

But I can't explain (Can't explain)
Forgive me one more time, now (Can't explain)

(INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE)

I said I can't explain, yeah
You drive me out of my mind
Yeah, I'm the worrying kind, babe
I said I can't explain

I'm in for Sunday as well! And hopefully Monday if Paulywaul has done his bit. EDIT - just saw your post, Paulywaul. HOORAY!!!

But the fanclub code I had was useless. I kept getting a message saying "the code you have entered is not in our system". Eventually I gave up and bought another membership. So thewho.com has just received a shittagram from me.

It's 6 a.m. where I am. I'm going back to bed....

Hello,

Well,how did we all do?
Sounds like a Success Story so far.

I got lucky,so I hope to see a few faces for a pre-match beverage at The Pilot Inn,both nights.

As ever,I'll believe it when I'm in the Indigo2!

Cheers,

Si.

You really do wanna give up this "getting up early in the morning" shit, it's obviously not at all good for you. The code worked FINE. Anyway ... celebration time (landscape awash with some of sssoul's far out and funky rock n' roll popcorn) ... cos' we're all off ta see the W w w w w w w w hooooooooooooo !!

Mr Jimmy, Logie, Adrian-L ... how'd ya get on ?

And for all you who want to sing along....



I know you've deceived me, now here's a surprise
I know that you have 'cause there's magic in my eyes

I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah

If you think that I don't know about the little tricks you play
And never see you when deliberately you put things in my way

Well, here's a poke at you
You're gonna choke on it too
You're gonna lose that smile
Because all the while

I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah

You took advantage of my trust in you when I was so far away
I saw you holding lots of other guys and now you've got the nerve to say

That you still want me
Well, that's as may be
But you gotta stand trial
Because all the while

I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah

I know you've deceived me, now here's a surprise
I know that you have 'cause there's magic in my eyes

I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah

The Eiffel Tower and the Taj Mahal are mine to see on clear days
You thought that I would need a crystal ball to see right through the haze

Well, here's a poke at you
You're gonna choke on it too
You're gonna lose that smile
Beacuse all the while

I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles
and miles and miles and miles and miles

I can see for miles and miles*

I'm in for Monday. ><

Yes, you're right for a part. BUt don't forget that one of the reasons why it is so easy to score Who tickets is that unfortunately there is not so much people today to care about The Who.

So shall we officially say The Pilot Inn from 6.30pm both nights. I've only got a ticket for Monday although I'll try for the Sunday should any still be available after the initial fan club thing runs out. Be good to meet you all.

Hi SD,

I think I may be there earlier than that,as doors for the Indigo are at 7pm and there will probably a lot of pfaffing-around in getting your ticket/wristband.

Anyway,a London Pride is in order...later on!

Cheers,

Si.

I had "the code you have entered is not in our system" message too, but tried again and it worked.

Boxed off for Sunday!!!!

I have two floor tix for Sunday !!!

Very pleased everyone on here got a ticket. They're still available too. Shocking! When they played Shepherd's Bush, The Forum and The Roundhouse, the tickets went almost immediately.

Went to all three of those. Shepherd's Bush was the hardest. I think they played there twice didn't they? Was it 2 years running?

Best time I saw them in recent years was at Watford in 2001. Absolutely stunning and very aggressive a la Who Live At Leeds. Is there a boot available of that one?

What does "boxed off" mean ? Is this some kind of obscene and cunning Liverpudlian lingo that us soft southern jessies just don't get ? Are you IN, or d'ya not succeed ? Tell me o tell me o tell me !!

ANY tickets left for the 'oo on Sunday, 14th December??

Before joining the fanclub to try and get some^

IF there are, would mightily appreciate anyone letting me know!

Muchos Gracias

It IS shocking. Why can't they sell 3,000 tickets in ENGLAND? In New York, even today, a Who show at, say, the Beacon Theatre, would sell out in about 13 seconds. Come to think of it, what happened to that six-night stand they were talking about doing at Radio City Music Hall? Under the right circumstances, I'd consider seeing them again, and those would definitely be the right circumstances.

Actually, I don't know where that saying comes from, but it means that things are well sorted!!!

Anyway, we'll be there on the Saturday night for a pint as well.

...and it's YOUR round!

Excellent. Ten outa ten. Sounds pretty much as if all those that tried duly succeeded. Wonder if Mr Jimmy & Adrian-L got in, haven't seen any posts from them since this morning when the tickets went on sale.

I am definitely there for Monday - won't need to see for miles, just a few yards....!!

Good for you guys. But it is a little surprising it was that easy and thier wasn't more demand. But I'm sure they will be great shows. I'm seeing them in LA in a couple weeks at a fairly small venue. Looking forward to it.

Presumably something to do with the membership requirement and limit of 2 tickets per applicant......hopefully cutting out any touts.
Enjoy the Nokia Theatre show!
