Entered. Good luck guys. Wait... Minimum age of eighteen? Does that mean we'll get ID'd or is there still a chance for me?

I've entered even tho i am about as far away from wales geographically as can be, you never know tho. It so happens i am on annual leave the week of the hard rock and the blackwood gig so that automatically means i won't win

On the BBC site you had the option of applying for 1 or 2 tickets, so I don't think they're just giving them away in pairs.

This would be the most amazing thing. The only miners' inst. I've been inside is in Aberdyfy, and it was TINY!

Weird, gonna have 5% just stood outside?

Be nice to get to that gig but I'm not even gonna bother entering. Can't afford to do it anyway, but Blackwood must be a right pain in the arse to get to. Good luck everyone, like.

The other 5% have to sit on the stage, playing the part of the mannequins.

According to this:
Quote:
Please note that the allocation process for tickets is geographically weighted as follows: 75% for Blackwood, Newport and Cardiff and 30% for the rest of the UK.
SO you in theory have as much a chance as someone actually from Blackwood getting tickets, unless the 75% is also weighted in such a way that favours people nearer the venue.

I will be ecstatic if I get the tickets, seeing a band I adore in a TINY venue, lovely.

Now, do I apply from my Wales address or my London address? Technically the London address is a shorter train ride... Bah!
