Too skint to see the manics?

Then you've come to the right place!

I've got a couple of tickets going free to a good home (1x Birmingham and 1x Bristol). I booked the tickets when I was planning a UK trip to see the boys, but since they've announced their Australia dates I've decided to do those instead (closer to home! ) But now I have a couple of tickets I can't sell and I can't use, so rather than keep them for posterity I thought there might be a poor studenty type out there who could put them to good use!

Just let me know why you deserve them (I want to give them to a deserving soul and not a scalpery type!!) and one could be yours.

Birmingham ticket is standing and Bristol ticket is seated.

You might fare better in the ticket exchange forum- more visibility.

I've tried selling them in the ticket section - no takers! and if I don't find a good home for them in the next few days they'll go to waste because it will take about 10 days for them to make their way by post half way round the world.

Sorry I can't help you out with a flight too indie!

Are the tickets actually with you? I would've picked them up at the venue if I was in your position.

Anyway, I may be interested in the Birmingham ticket. How much is postage?

This is the first tour since the FD Greatest Hits tour where I won't have seen them, because being unemployed I can't afford to go. I don't know if that means I'm worthy of a free ticket, it's just the reason I'm not attending this tour.

Yes, they are. Seetickets, in their infinite wisdom, have decided to post me some and tell me others will need to be picked up from the post office :rollseyes:
I actually will have Cambridge and Leicester tickets waiting for me to pick them up at the box office - if anyone can figure out how to get them without my credit card they can have them!

Before my name is considered for inclusion in the hat, have you any idea how much postage will be?
