Apparently there’s evidence to point at a Friday show at SJP

People Watching already dipping out of the top ten after one week. The arrival of Christmas and a surprise Kendrick album appears to mean it's going to go AWOL pretty quickly.

Apparently it was  the only alternative British track to debut in the Top 4 of the Singles Chart in over 10 years! whatever the hell that means

Anybody else in the pre sale queue? I'm not even getting a number or progressing bar?

[a_diamond]

In the queue - only just got given my queue position after 13mins... 19,000 so not feeling too hopeful!

[Dales]

That was the quickest pre-sale ever, got number 528 and through and purchased in minutes. So huge success on bagging Sammy tickets but another huge fail on trying to cut down on ticket spend for 2025.

I got London tickets easily. Join the Newcastle dates out of curiosity and there were 45,000 in each queue

I think I got lucky as at 9.30 no que number came up and it did not look like it was placeing me in the que and so I risked refreshing and it gave me a low number. Most times with Ticketmaster it kicks you to the back of the que when you try that.

[Sam Y]

If anyones still looking for tickets you can get straight through with the London show.

[thatTFBguy]

Finally got a queue number. Had set up 10 Chrome profiles, with queue spots all between 20,000 and 25,000 (a couple within 50 spots of each other), so wonder if I've tripped a bot detection software? Seems very strange to have 10 chances and they all fall within such close proximity. 

[NorthernSoul52]

Not that I can access it for some reason - need the email link, I presume - but London looks to be a far easier sell than I anticipated. 

[thatTFBguy]

Through and looks like Newcastle night 2 standing sold out, so that's me 0 for 2 in ticket sales this month!

I'm guessing most people would have gone for Newcastle and who that sells out people will try for London

[FeverDream]

I was 12,000 in queue and managed to get 2 standing for Thurs at St James. Took a while for it to give me a queue number once it refreshed at 9.30am, but didn’t take long to get through the queue once I was given a number.

 

EDIT: I have to say, Gigantic was far smoother with presale than Ticketmaster has been in the past. Good luck London people, hopefully Ticketmaster is forgiving today 😄

For what is worth, just noted the London and Manchester arena shows have limited tickets still available to boot. Assume it's side-of-stage fare. 

[kp1983]

Anyone have a presale link for the London show please?

I've heard the Sunday which would perhaps make more sense rather than three days in a row 

[WestCountryGirl]

I tried and failed to use the presale link for London on my work laptop as didn't have my Ticketmaster login details 🤦🏻‍♀️

Then got in on my phone, 7000 ahead in queue, but was in in 10 minutes. Rejected three different seat options before bagging section 132 so pretty happy with that!

[thatTFBguy]

Seats for SJP night 1 are still available, and standing took like 2 hours to sell out. Few seats for SJP night 2 floating around too, though standing did sell out well before the queue was empty. Do sales seem a bit sluggish to anybody else? Certainly not the instant sell-out I was maybe expecting, and based on this, I'm not sure the demand is there for a third night.

I think the two hours was probably due to the queuing system.  With his demographic I think they'd be a strong preference for standing too.  Queue system was odd - 3 out of the 4 of us trying got in straight away, whilst the other was given a place of 23.500
