I just saw this and it's always so hard to get tickets!
Thanks Tickster, interesting venue too!

Good luck everyone! (Argh.)

Subject: Re: Little Noise Sessions Fri 07 Oct 2011, 09:00

Got mine!! Fingers crossed for all of you. Very Happy

Subject: Re: Little Noise Sessions Fri 07 Oct 2011, 09:02

Wow, that was surprisingly easy.

Subject: Re: Little Noise Sessions Fri 07 Oct 2011, 09:06

Logged on at 9am and it said sold out. Not happy at all!

Subject: Re: Little Noise Sessions Fri 07 Oct 2011, 09:32

Erk. Well there's the general sale next Monday.

I noticed Ticketmaster opened up sales at about 8:58 according to my clock. I find it's always worth being online 5-10 mins before and continually refresh the page, since clocks differ between computers.

Had 2 tickets in the bag, put in card details, went to verified by visa page, BANG, work computer crashes. Finally get the presale link to work on my phone and all the tickets have gone. So, so hacked off!!

Just spotted there is also the chance to bid for a reserved seat (plus exclusive programme and early access to the venue) for any of the Little Noise Sessions:

EDIT: Looks like the reserved seats that you can bid for in this way are balcony seats. Should be a pretty good view. Smile

Yup, usual presale nightmare. I found the site pretty unresponsive this morning from FireFox, so tried a Chrome session which worked rather better. Bit of a nightmare with payment details, but got there in the end. Remember, the presale is only a small allocation, so there should be plenty more on Monday - just be prepared and quick. And yes, try a little earlier, as ticket sales are rarely spot on time...

Slightly disappointed at the move from Union Chapel out to Hackney, as I don't think it's as exquisite a venue. And it's much less convenient for most people (though, bizarrely, *really* easy for me!) Wonder if it's a cost saving measure as this year's tickets seem cheaper than the last couple of years.

Very happy though, it'll be my fourth year in a row at Little Noise, which are always special, and have given me a great variety: Stereophonics, Mika, Tom Jones, and now Elbow! And there are usually some interesting supports that are worth hoiking out for by themselves.

I'm a bit gutted about the Union Chapel too - I saw Lambchop there a few years ago, it was really special. Though I have no idea how the new venue will compare.

This is a rich man's game, no I didn't, and I'm not.
Even when my daughter was actually an employee of Mencap Charity, she couldn't get tickets for a reasonable price for I AM KLOOT when they did Little Noise for them.

Don't get me started on the whole touting game - and what Ticketmaster support here is scandalous.

Looked like you could book 8 tickets, which seemed pretty extreme. And a license for unscrupulous people to make massive profits, as well as scooping up allocations super fast, compared with the normal 2 ticket limit.

I could have bought my two tickets, plus another 8, and potentially paid for my trip with a tidy profit left over. But I never have, and never will, sell tickets at a profit.

The world's a sorry place where Ticketmaster can be in bed with GetMeIn and yet ScarletMist is forced to shut up shop...

I was refreshing the page from 8.50am. My clock said 9.00 when the booking page appeared. I selected 2 tickets and got a message saying 'sorry, we are unable to fulfill your request'. I tried another 4 or 5 times and got the same message.
Fortunately I have the best girlfriend in the world and she got me 2 tickets. She was going to keep them as a surprise as part of my 40th birthday present but could tell how disappointed I was.

See you all there. :-)
