Congrats to those that can go and yeah, wow, selling tickets already. Will be interesting to see what other dates come out. Don't know what I can get for vacation next year yet, so will miss out on these dates for sure. Here's well wishes for those that can make it to the shows across The Pond!

Very happy we are, o but now I have to do some other things, while The Big One is travelling around. I hope he is and he gives not a damn lurking for the selling-accounts of the tour. We will all be there, me not as a vip, what I am, but somewhere. If you are in the Rhine area you and yours could visit me. Who could be more a friend than your lunie??

Last night the Glasgow show even still had some front rows left, but sigh, sure they are gone now and not knowing my vacation weeks yet...

Pay for tickets a year in advance? Cheeky b**tard. No thanks.

Duddy, which show are you going to? Mrs Wookie and I have bought tickets for the Monday London show.

There are definitely more dates to be announced, and possibly in some interesting locations. There were some working with PG pushing to add some locations, and to add on a couple more weeks of touring. I don't know what the final outcome will be, but I'm watching and waiting...

Let's hope for an outdoor UK gig or a standing one if it's going to be too cold by then. That or a Christmas or new years treat at a small venue, real world studios would be great.

Mr Beef I don't think this is cheeky. They have done that for us...fans .
Mr Beef 26 November 2012 at 6:26pm Posts: 761 (0 today) Status: offline
Well, it's only my opinion. . . and I'm used to that being out of step with most here. I just think that being expected to pay for tickets (and some are VERY expensive tickets) a year before the concert is quite cheeky. . . especially when this is all done under the banner of being a performance of "So" when in reality most of the songs have been on most of these songs have been done to death on most of PG's set lists for the last decade. Touring is what brings in the $$$, especially when everyone is paying for it so far in advance.

You may have a point Mr Beef, but in July the Guardian G2 section reported that "Back to Front" was being used to raise funding for WOMAD. As someone who goes to WOMAD every year (i've already bought my 2013 tickets) I'm happy to pay and happy to pay now. I appreciate that non-WOMADers may not agree but that's how I feel.

For some, paying for tickets far in advance of actual show might work better money wise. One never knows what can happen in a year. SO, for me I might be better paying now than taking a chance that my money tree will still be shaking.
