Got tickets for bridgwater hall in manc. 88 bloody quid.

It is pricey innit? Part of the reason I just went fuck it and went for the 100 quid. If I'm going to spend 80, may as well go the whole whack.

It'll be awesome, though.

yeah...and actually, being an old bastard I quite like the seated thing.

Yeah me too to be honest. It's going to be that kind of gig where you just sit and listen and let it wash over you.

Row D Poole Lighthouse for £88.00. After the initial rush you can now go straight though and quite a few tickets still available

Wow thats brilliant! Currently number 104 in queue for Poole Lighthouse

Funny, I went from 62 to 3 in the queue by the next refresh as so many people bailed when they saw how expensive the tix were at Poole.

Ended up going for the cheapest in the back row. Soooooo many £88 tickets left, will be interesting to see if it even sells out at that price.

Grabbed a couple of £35 cheapo tickets in the Gallery Standing for the Royal Albert Hall. 

Couldn't really justify stretching for the prices they were charging, but will take my chances watching from the gods. I hate sitting down at gigs anyway....

[Zoo Music Girl]

Interesting! Does seem like maybe quite a few people baulked at the price then.

Enjoy the view from the front, we'll wave from the back seat in the balcony!

There's four of us, just couldn't justify an extra £120. Very excited to have the date in the diary.

I know what you mean. Im flying solo so it was only an extra £30.00 and it will be my first gig for nearly 18 months so thought id go for it.

100% this.

We've been DESPERATE for a gig!

This was my attitude too. Nick Cave is my absolute favourite artist and I've not had a big gig for so long. Also flying solo so thought fuck it. Going to be immense.

Loved watching him on the pyramid in 2013. The place was packed with teenagers patiently waiting for mumfords and Nick pulled out all the stops, he was in full front man mode during Stagger Lee. Epic.

Most of the kids probably had no idea who he was, I wonder how many became fans afterwards...

It was an incredible performance. I've seen Cave many times and that was in the top three for me!

I had a clash, can't remember what it was now. I threaded my way into the crowd down the front right hand side so I could have a quick exit. Only intended to stay for a few songs before heading off, expected him to be aloof and pissy with all the mumford fans - I was totally wrong, he loved it! I ditched my plan quite quickly and stayed to the end. Brilliant fun.

Smashing Pumpkins were on the Other at the same time.

RAH not sold out yet, very tempted but can't really justify the cost at the moment. Last month's football has blown my gig budget for the foreseeable future. 

[Somto Unigwe Raphael]

Wasn’t gonna bother this morning but at £38 incl. fees for the choir seats I thought I’d rather do that than be sat at home. Seeing him at Primavera anyway so don’t really care what my view is like for these songs, just be nice to hear them live.

Front row for Edinburgh 😎

[onthebeach]

Yessss - after travelling many miles both here and in Europe I can’t believe I have tickets at our local venue at de Montfort Hall, Leicester - about 10 minutes away! We used to have great gigs at this venue in the past but in recent years it’s been dire

[zzzfest]

Nosebleed for Edinburgh 😇

Yep! I ran over after Cave finished and caught the hit-heavy last 30 minutes. 2013 was a great year. 

[WestCountryGirl]

I have no idea where our seats will be. Not-quite-MIL offered to get my ticket as a Christmas gift as I am short on disposable funds at the moment. Kinda hope we're in the cheap-seats or I'm going to have to get my serious gifting on come December time 😅

[Dales]

Ouch that was expensive, Albert Hall for me.

[Ted Dansons Wig]

Poole tour opener for me. Get those rehearsals done folks. £86 for 1 ticket. Fuck
