Title: One Nottingham Rock City Ticket Required (NMA gig!)
Post by: Hughie on November 20, 2014, 04:03:05 PM
It looks, after a fruitless trawl of the main ticket sites and phone call to the venue, that the Rock City date has sold out.

I'm looking to buy one ticket for a friend.   I'll pay whatever it cost to buy (including add ons and postage) + obviously what it costs to post to me, if it's a hard ticket.

Please reply here or PM if you've one spare.

thanks

Hi Hughie,

If you can get an offer of 2, I would definitely take the other...

This missing the xmas gig is looking serious.... :(

Such a frustrating thing... I've managed to get a ticket thanks to one of my mates having to drop out (and he was gonna be an NMA newbie as well  :( ) but I guess it means that I can go.

You lot without tickets... my best wishes to you all and I hope you find something.

Can't believe it sold out so early that said have had the tickets for the best part of a year now, wasn't gonna miss this one for sure

I'm sure last time i spent best part of £200 on the hotel and the night itself. I can remember buying Stoney a Magners and then buying 10 shots of this black tar like stuff.

Annoyingly i left my jacket at spankys, had to drive all the way back the next day. My girlfriend was not best pleased. In fact looking back the next day was horrendous but the gig was excellent.

If you've bought the train ticket and hotel already come down to Nottingham anyway, I'm pretty sure there'll be somebody with a spare (a real fan I mean, not a tout) in the pub and/or outside before the gig. Since the spread of Internet booking lots of people buy their tickets ridiculously early (some people up to a year before the event) and often get them for their friends/significant others too, only to then realise when the time comes they, or one of their party can't/can't be arsed to make it anymore. At the risk of jinxing it - to this day I've still always been able to get in to a gig I wanted to see, and without ever paying more than face value.

Of course, I you have to spend the money for travelling etc. I can understand you not wanting to take the risk, however small (I wouldn't either) but seeing as you've already got your train ticket sorted what have you got to lose? ;)

At this rate Lawrence's post gig party may become a during gig party. It is my plan to turn up as train and hotel already paid for and chance it as Danny says, hopefully I will only be attending the post part of the party. Good luck to all in the same boat.

Cheers

Just a thought, would it be worth phoning the Rock City Box Office, asking if there is any chance of another ticket or two ? http://www.rock-city.co.uk/

There's still a chance someone can't make it there for some reason. I've sent out a few emails. Hopefully we can get you in you're usual place, dancing away at the front.

fingers crossed  ;)

Hi that's great, I'm definitely still interested.  It's for a friend coming over from Germany who already has his travel arranged.

I'll send you a private message using the noticeboard facility and we can finalise the arrangements from there.

thanks (and thanks to Neil B for flagging to me that there was a reply).
