Anyway to be honest I'm more desparate to get tickets so that

my 6 1/2 year old can go after I denied him 4 years ago

and promised I'd take him if they ever came out again.

 

 

You're having a laugh?

 

2 1/2 year old kid: "Let me in the sound!"

Parents: "No, I'll let you go when you're 6 1/2"

 

 

The older one was 6 when I bought tickets. When he was at pre-school (3-4) and kids would get up and sing Twinkle Twinkle or Mary had a little lamb, he would sing Stuck in a Moment and Elevation.

 

I promised him I would take him to a U2 concert next time they came out and after failing to get tickets to the first show, slept out overnight from around 9pm at my closest ticket seller.

 

Because the concerts were postponed because of Edge's daughters illness, he was just truned 7 by the time we went.

 

In the lead up to the day the little one would wander around the house singing "Uoooooooo2oooooooo Conceeeeeeerrrrrrttttt" at the top of his lungs.

 

The night my eldest and I went to leave the little one said "I'm getting ready too" and when I told him he wasn't coming he burst into tears. I tried to explain but my wife just told me to go.

 

Apparently he sobbed for about an hour.

 

I then promised him that if they ever came out he'd definately be going.

 

When I found out on Sunday and told him his eyes lit up like you would not believe.

 

So it's definately about making sure he gets there this time around as I made a promise.

Thanks very much.  I found that page, but my group is listed as N/A!  and no codes, although I confirmed my e-mail.

 

What the??  I might try on my home computer instead....

 

Cheers

Yeah - just checked it again and found the code, but no group yet.  Yes, I paid the subscription.

 

One would assume I am in 'Cedar' given my newbie status.  Thanks for your help!

I would not worry about it at the moment, it's been happening to a good few people, I'm sure it will be sorted in due course. Don't forget they're changing the look of the site, preparing for the pre sales to Oz and NZ, creating a new Cedar group of Members, so they're probably fairly busy at the moment to update some things.

Cheers guys - I don't care if I'm in 'Cedar', just to be given an opportunity to get a pre-sale ticket is awesome.

if we have 2 presale codes, I realise thats 4 tix limit each code - hence totalling 8

 

can I use the same details/CC etc as these are under my own name I would assume so, however reading the fine print on ticketmaster it suggests 4 tix limit only and warns of cancellations if exceeded

 

or do I use different CC or something? confusing, just checking in case they want to add an answer to that in the presales FAQs too
