ticketsales

I love when people claims when they have been a fan "since 19xx" as if a certain amount of years of being a fan would make a simple opinion a fact.

Roger stated in the billboard interview I posted before that the european tour would be interesting because Adam is not well known in europe and in another interview I saw somewhere else (I cant remember where) he said that the fact Adam is not well known and the reject from some fans, make them feel as in the early days when nobody gave a damn about them.

Whatever the case, people forget the whole reason for this tour: They want to play their music, they want to have a good time for perhaps, the last time. And, if in the process of having a good time they also earn some money, then its a lot better, but its clear they are not interested in the money otherwise they would have a high profile singer, instead of a relatively unknown act.[/QUOTE]


I always thought one possible reason they might have had for goign with Adam was that it would bring new fans..........as at least in America, Adam's a pretty BIG deal..............(and his 2 albums had good sales in the UK at least........dunno about Europe tho....)

a quick calculation shows that 80.67% of tickets for the European tour are sold................and thats as of Oct 25...........I'd say thats not too bad, for concerts that are 2 to 3 months away!

I count 7 shows sold out or nearly so................

anyone got a link for the Q+PR ticket sales spreadsheet thing?

Also, Adam is not a BIG act, but a relatively small act. He have a few fans but man, they do support his artist! Sometimes I get the impression they are millions, but its just that they cover everything: From tour logistics, to vocal analysis, social networks, etc etc

Ive been in touch with a few Lambert fans via twitter and they usually consider Q+AL as the best way to make Adam a huge act.

Glasgow is sold out. Trying to get a ticket for that was ridiculous!

On this moment the ticketsales for the gigs in Germany are still a littlebit dissapointing. Only München and Köln are going well but for exemple Berlin have almost the half of the tickets still avalible. I think they have planned to many gigs in Germany. The rest of Europe is going well.

Anyone actually received tickets yet for e.g. O2 on 17th Jan?

Not me Martin - mine were booked o nthe first presale day but not arrived yet. Rather annoying that TicketZone don't have an online order status checking facility too - you have to contact them to ask if they've been sent, and even then you get a generic ' they might take up to a few days before to arrive'. Obviously by that point it's far too late to resolve any issues of lost tickets......

@cmsdrums Ta! "Reassured". :-)

January 18 ticket (through AXS) arrived last week.

ill be honest guys the O2 are apparently so slow with distribution, i booked 3 other dates, newcastle, leeds and manchester, and all 3 of those were with ticket zone and they arrived a few weeks ago

whereas i booked my O2 18th Jan tickets through ticketmaster and they've not even been dispatched yet!

quick question as well does anyone have the VIP packages yet? the 300 quid ones?

(standard) tickets for January 17 arrived today in Europe by UPS, bought via Ticketmaster.

The ticketsales in Germany going better, Only Berlin and Hamburg are a little behind .I think that after the Helen Fischer show, arred on 25 december and the NYE show in London all the gigs are sold out.

It took a while though to start selling, as I was torn for many weeks whether to go or not and there was always plenty of allocation to choose from each time I checked.

In the end I couldn't tempt anyone to pay £75 to go see someone they'd "never heard of" taking lead... and I wasn't paying for two tickets like I did for Q+PR.

The European tour is almost sold out now. Only in Hamburg are a thousend tickets left. It seams that after the presents in the Helen Fischer show and there NYE concert a lot of people desided to go to there concert in the UK and Europe.
