Just select the "box office collection" delivery option. Then you can bring a print-out of the order confirmation and the card you booked with then walk into the box office at the front of the venue (with it's own entrance, with little to no queue) on the day and get your ticket. And, I might add, beat most of those who have their tickets and are queueing to the barrier.

I can't promise they'll have this option but I've never known them not to.

That sounds much better! Concerning the tickets at least!
... the barrier thing sounds like I might get slaughtered by everyone who's been waiting for ages!

No Wolverhampton!

Don't believe it! (Very selfish of me I know as they have played there last couple of tours!) Birmingham Academy, where on earth is that? Anywhere near the NIA?

No, it's not really near NIA but it's pretty easy to get to.

Ha! But Black metal is all about standing there, arms crossed, almost pretending not to be interested!

Now, Thrash/Death metal are a different story...!
I'm just not 20 anymore!

Got a postcode so I can Google it? Or any sort of directions. As long as it is well signposted once you get near to it I might be ok!

Ooh the possibilities Doesn't look like I'm going to be at home much in October, as I already have other stuff booked, plus this tour now as well. Nice to see a wide range of locations this time.

Yeah the Engine Shed @ Lincoln isn't a very big venue, it's on the University Campus.

I'm really annoyed, I really wanted to go and see them in Lincoln as i've never seen them before but my stupid mates don't want to go even though it's not until October Looks like i'm going to miss out on seeing them yet again

Fuck 'em, go alone. I've been to some of the best gigs of my life by myself. In fact, if you're not a nobhead, feel free to tag along with me and my friends!
