Okay apologies to regulars for my first post being a bitch.

And respect to all those who are going to trek to the air craft hanger to see the boys as tiny ants in a venue with as much atmosphere as Heathrow airport.

Anyone who lives in NYC, Wembley is a bit like saying the gig is in New York and really it's in Yonkers on an industrial estate.

BUT WTF? Is this just about money? Is that all there is to it?

Why not Brixton? Or somewhere for a few nights.

What's gone wrong with music in this country that promoters are so greedy and acts are so gullible.

I expected better.

:(

Thought i'd post just to reinforce how bad this has been for me as well. Spent last two days refreshing and phoning from before 9am and both days tickets have been sold out! i bought standing tickets for manchester just in case this happened yesterday, glad i did now, but now ive got a 3-4 hour drive compared to wemberly which is just down the road!! I am a bloody huge beastie boys fan which just didn't happen to be on the mailing list, so therfore have missed out. Also annoyed at how on ebay there are people selling with 20 available tickets for £50+ each! i just can't afford that and is highly unfair that touts have beaten me to tickets!

Lets just hope some more dates have been arranged, im now on the mailing list so i might have a chance!

Agreed. I was pretty appalled to see that they're playing these sheds (even though Wembley is just a postcode away from me). And that was before being left with nothing but crap seats to choose from. I got to the presale slightly later than planned to find that standing tickets were gone...I refuse to go there AND contend with crap plastic seats a million miles away from the stage.

Fuck, is it that bad? I've got choice of tickets, one in block 8 which looks fairly far back, and one in the upper tier to the left of stage...which is better do you think? Oh well, at least I'm going.
