I didn't choose TicketFast, but I noticed it said something about the printing facility not being available yet, so I don't think you need to worry.

Normal paper tickets.

I thought it was ticketless and your credit card is your ticket? Like the O2 in 2015, if so there will be a lot of disappointed touts or people who have bought too many tickets. I think they're only doing ticketless entry in North America this time.

My London ones end in UK5, and I'd be surprised if they're planning to add four more shows!

I did have to click Verify, but it went through without asking me for the password.

On Ticketmaster UK they were automatically generated. I was hoping we could pick them. :/

The ticket limit could be split between shows on the IE Tour, but not on previous tours (at least in the UK). It would be very helpful to find out if we can split them this time!

Ha, I wondered if Noel Fitzpatrick would be at any of the shows! Would have been great to bump into him there, but I didn't see him. I was at the e-stage (North side) for night 3, and just in front of the Red Zone (South side) for night 4. Not very good views for a short person on this tour, but the shows were excellent! Thanks so much to the lads for surprising us with New Year's Day, it's my favourite song to hear live and I never expected them to play it this time! Just a shame we missed out on Volcano, and Angel Of Harlem continues to narrowly elude me after 15 years of gig-going...

Thanks for mentioning that! Do you have to have it printed or is it alright to just show them the email on your phone? I had a printout but I don't imagine it makes any difference, they just need to see what the order number is, so they don't accidentally invalidate your ticket for another night.

They asked for my confirmation email on the 30th too, apparently it's because if you booked more than one show on the same card, they can't tell which order number is for that night. (Mind you, when I went on the 29th, they just swiped the card and didn't need to ask which order it was...!)

All of that sounds great to me!

was also at 360 Wembley, 1st night sound from my seat (to the front & side of stage) was very echo-y - 2nd night from up front was incredibly good. I was in GA for both Wembley shows. The first night, the sound was acceptable (at least compared to the utter disaster that was Earls Court), but quite muddy so I couldn't always make out the words. It was certainly nothing like the amazing crystal clear sound at Twickenham. The second night when they opened the sliding roof a bit further, the sound was noticeably much better.

That's so great to see. I hope someone sends Bono a link to the video - he'd be thrilled!

I don't understand why they're playing so few SOI tracks, either. Pretty much everyone in the audience should own a free copy of that album, so there's no reason to be worried about people not knowing the songs!

Short answer is no! Sorry but I find it bland and boring. I'm sure they'll play it LA for you though but am hoping they don't play it at the London shows I'm going to. I hope they play it at the London shows *I'm* going to! Would be pretty gutted not to hear it.

I assumed that was referring to the tour programme...

The old diaries are still in the News archive, but don't appear to have a dedicated tag. I do hope Willie will be reporting on the tour this year - it's my favourite thing on the website!

So the pre-show music usually includes something appropriate to the current tour/album ('Higher And Higher' on the Elevation Tour, 'Atomic' on the Vertigo Tour). What songs might they choose to fit the Innocence + Experience theme? Some possibilities that spring to mind: -- Return To Innocence by Enigma -- Are You Experienced? by The Jimi Hendrix Experience -- An Innocent Man by Billy Joel -- Not Such An Innocent Girl by Victoria Beckham (just kidding... probably...) Any others you can think of?

I felt the same way about the seats at my first show, would never want to do that again! GA is hard work but so worth it.

The concrete was luxury after Twickenham!!

Yes, I'll be going alone to nights 3 and 4. I would never leave my spot once inside the venue - I just avoid eating and drinking too much, and if I need the toilet I'll go before the doors open.

I should have added, the £30 ones weren't available in the presale so that price doesn't include fees. (Face values of tickets are £30, £55, £90 and £165.)

Including fees, these are the prices I noted down during the last presale: Level 1 C & Level 4 D - £30 GA & Level 4 C - £64 Level 1 B & Level 4 B - £102 Level 1 A & Level 4 A - £182.50

It was Earls Court on the Elevation Tour. Dreadful venue. As well as the seats being bad, the sound was so appalling that I literally couldn't tell which song was being played a lot of the time. I'm just praying the O2 won't be like that.

My awful experience in seats was at an arena show. They were expensive seats but at the wrong end of the arena, so I felt a million miles away from the action. Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad if we were closer to the stage.
