I'll be going to this banger the day before PBR Fantazio. Peeps should come along too.

Balls. Looks like there is a 2 ticket limit per household so my wife can’t book tickets even with a different email and credit card.

Still in the queue for o2 presale for the Sabbath gig - only 13,625 people ahead of me after 1 hour 15 mins.... bull****. 
Both my lads are drummers and big rock heads so was hoping to make a family affair out of it.
We saw the Foos at Villa last year as well and it is a solid stadium venue - not too big (or souless like Coventry).

I got in about 1/2 hour ago and the only tickets left were the £3k side of stage ones. I think people are just queuing to look at those now then leaving empty handed. 
I got 2 golden circle ones this morning!!!
No hotels left in Birmingham so I booked a carpark instead, 15 walk.
Will either drive back to London or stop on the way. Will decide near the time.
My wife had her phone to get tikets for friends but the wifi blocked her as two phones with same connection didn't work. She was blocked and even with data couldn't get back in the queue.

Well done mate! That must have felt like winning the lottery! I'll be trying again tomorrow!
I've missed out two days in a row
Trying again tomorrow and Friday
Regretting not taking the tickets i had in my basket on Tuesday but £600 for a seat end of the pitch felt too steep

Tickets with hotel packages just here fellas!
Be quick!
Edit: just clicked again and all the £450 ones gone. Hopefully it’ll work out for somebody.

I just got my Iggy Pop ticket for 28th May with @johnwhitfield
Nice one. I’m seeing him at Bearded Theory. It’s got a great lineup this year.

Just got 4 x standard tickets for the Sabbath gig - my 2 x lads (13 & 19) are going to be chuffed (both drummers and big rock heads).
For anyone trying - I got them through a friend who is an Aston Villa member - seems easy there (no queue).
They can be a member or have a season ticket (I think - I don't do football).

I hope you don’t all have the same billing address. I just had it confirmed by Ticketmaster CS that they will be checking and cancelling all tickets where more than 2 ticket holders are at the same address.
Lunacy IMO but that’s what they say.

Nope, fortunately, it was a guy who works for me and his dad.
But I will believe them when I have them in hand I guess...

Nice!Got my ticket for Sabbath
Congrats matey! When I got on today I was 78,000 in the queue! Not far off that with the pre-sale queues too....Got my ticket for Sabbath
Looks like I'll be getting fisted by the sharks on Viagogo then.....however, ahem... "dibs" if anyone has tickets but has a change of plan!
First day I was 16000 odd in the queue. Today 86000 so even more pointless.
Out of interest in the space between the waiting room and queue allocation how many if you refresh the page? Allegedly a better way of getting out through but I don’t have the balls to do it.
The whole thing isn’t helped by ticket master constantly blocking purchases from my phone.
Oh well. Bought tickets for Razorlight instead as a consolation prize.

I tried for Sabbath but Ticketmaster screwed me over 2 days running
Got a few good gigs coming up:
Mark William Lewis
MJ Lenderman
Have a Nice Life (which I am ****ing buzzing for - deathconsciousness is one of my all time favourites and deathcrash are supporting, who are very, very good)
Gang of Four (Entertainment anniversary tour so playing it front to back!!)
Iron Maiden
GnR
Oasis x2
Tempted by Pulp tickets but just not sure I want to pony up the £70-odd quid they'll cost. Also looking at Jerry Harrison and Adrian Belew's Remain In Light tour but is it worth listening to Talking Heads music without David Byrne? Not convinced.

I saw Maiden in Leeds last year. They still put on a great show!
This'll be my 3rd time seeing them and they've been brilliant each time. Will be interesting to see how the new drummer is mind.
Oh joy. After losing hours last week in the Sabbath presales I get to do the same this week trying to get tickets for Wireless for my daughter. (Three days of Drake sounds ****ing dreadful to me but it appears that’s what the youngsters want)
Thought I’d cracked it by securing place 250 in the queue at the first presale but no, apparently that’s not high up enough to still be able to secure tickets.
Got bored and checked if there were still tickets for Guns N Roses. Oh my, that one really isn’t selling well. Does dynamic pricing work in reverse?

I briefly dipped my toes in the water of the Sabbath queues.And quickly realised it was going to happen. I feel it's no coincidence they are only saying now that Ozzy won't be playing a full set with Sabbath. (Not a slur on Mr O at all. Maybe one aimed at missis O though 
)
No matter when I failed to get said ticket I went off and instead got one for The Exploited in Carlisle instead (punks not dead)

I saw that story as well, strange that it didn't come out until after ticket sales took place.
I would still have loved to go but I can see why the photo below ended up doing the rounds.
I think it’s going to be more of a tribute to the man/legend than any real expectation that he’s capable of singing for more than part of a few songs.
As a one of with all the top metal bands playing Sabbath covers you couldn’t really ask for more I’m assuming it will probably also get live streamed in some form which will be better than missing it entirely (I’m also taking comfort that Shinedown and Rise Against have been added to the Download bill as it was a bit spare in the middle section before)
