Bob Dylan & Mark Knopfler Tour 2011

[Love Expresso]

Okay, thanks LE and marky, so I will be in front of my PC on Monday at 9 and see what happens 

What annoys me is the fact that both my shows start at the same time. So for one show I will lose time. Any tricks there, apart from using to computers?

I noticed a few posts on the Expecting Rain forum saying that they had joined MK.com (for the tickets)!    Every day on MK.com there are hundreds of new members registering - obviously BD fans!

Ive just checked the Cardiff show and saw which seats MK.com were offering for us fans.....they were in the block the FURTHEST away from the stage - actually at the very back of the hall - how rubbish is that!!!

Check which seats MK.com is offering you - you may be disappointed!

[superval99]

For Manchester, it says Blocks A, B or C  Rows A to D, so that doesn't seem too bad!

Ive also noticed Cardiff has a "standing, General Admission" option - in my experience - standing gigs AKA rugby scrums....!

Im getting more turned off by this the more i find out....!

Why is Cardiff a Standing Gig??!!!!

Standing tickets also for sale for Glasgow. AND tickets go on sale on Ticketmaster at 9am Monday morning, same time as mk.com. 

Surley the standing area will be right in front of the stage?

I was standing in Amsterdam and I loved it!   We were right at the stageside and had great fun.  The downside is that you have to queue all afternoon to be at the front - not good in the wind and rain, or for eating before the show!

I think so, that happened with the Amsterdam shows as well and I decided to buy the tickets in the general sae, as they send them to my home instead of pick them at the hall, so if anything happens and I cant attend the show I can send them to a friend etc etc

I knew that was about to happen...

If it's standing anyway then it doesn't really matter, just a case of elbowing your way to the front.

Blimey, there's already VIP tickets on Ebay.

And Bob Dylan site its not offering his usual presale (nor mentioning Mark Knopfler is playing with him):

http://www.bobdylan.com/tour

However, it looks like its not a presale at all, you can purchase the tickets from Ticketmaster the same day, same time, specilly if you are buying standing tickets. If you are searching for seated tickets, check before, in some cases marknopfler.com is offering not very good seats...

Assuming that they didn't forget MK (and band!) by mistake: What a bunch of ignorant ......

[superval99]

Expecting Rain is an extremely ignorant and arrogant forum.  They ridicule MK, but at the same time are quite happy to take advantage of MK.Com tickets!   I dread to think what the BD fans will be like at the concerts!
