anybody know what time it starts as i dont pick my ticket until the actual day
eh, around 7pm, i think,
Hi Your Valentine & Jazz.
While I thought of sending it to Bri, I doubt it will make any difference. I did email him before about further wembley tickets and he said there would not be any more gigs as Paul had to go to the US. However now we hear that they are planning hyde park. To be honest if I was organising the tour trying to make as much cash as I could I'd make sure the early gigs sell out and sell the good tickets to vip operators / touts.
So I'm gonna sell my spare ticket for wembley (please post here if u want it) and have just bought 1 ticket for brixton. I did think of taking up the option i had for the second to sell but didn't want the hassle of ill informed fans flaming me ! So now my conscience is clear and I continue to recognice QP as a money machine !
Let me know if u r interested in the wembley ticket anyone.

It's a huge difference if you offer your ticket to another fan for the price you paid plus postage or if you offer it on ebay with a reserve much higher than the original price - this is what "Rocky" did.
The Brixton ticket lottery is a fiacsco because from the start it was controversial who should have a right to enter the lottery. Now it has developed into a hateful debate about "worthy fans", tickets are offered to fans who never wanted one, fan club members are notified after the deadline while others do get emails.
The latest highlight of this whole shabby affair is Jacky's latest "news" on her website where she promises to undermine the allegedly audited lottery in favour of the members of her fan club.

Well, I know there are more registrated fans than there are tickets, but I've been a registered fan for 27 years now and I did not get an email saying I was a lucky winner.
I do know fans that were selected in the first round of this lottery AND they were ALSO selected in the second round of this lottery. It's getting more stupid by the minute.
And now, indeed, I could send Jacky a mail to get me included in the leftovers after 2 draws.
Luckily I'm invited by two friends to join them on the trip to Brixton. I chose one and made sure that the second ticket went to another registered Queenfan.
But still... sure I should have been a lucky winner in the first round! Me! Of all people!

That really shouldn't come as much of surprise after she has already undermined the original lottery (and all those "old" FC members who do most of the moaning about these Brixton tickets :P ) by submitting into it people who joined the fan club AFTER the tour was announced... :I
I've was told by Jacky on 23th Feb that I am a winner, and have gone to the Ticketweb link she provided to book my tickets. I'm then told at that link that the tickets need to be booked by 9th February, and I can't book!!
Jacky told me Fri that dhe has asked Ticketweb to sort their link, as the people this applies to only get until 1today (28th Feb) to buy their ticket. AS at today, Jacky is not in the office, the link is still broken, and no-one at Ticektweb replies to my emails, and cannot help on the phone.
I am eligible for tickets but can't get them - has anyone else been suffering this farce over the last few days, and if so have you remedied it???
HELP!!

History repeats itsself...
By not taking up the option to purchase the Brixton tickets, you will be doing more to ensure that this never happens again than if you do buy them.
Vote with your feet and stay away from the show. That's what I've done and I've even had chase-up e-mails asking me to go ahead and book the tickets; surely, if I win the tickets, I have the choice as to whether the tickets are used or not?

Yeah,I won a ticket. It`s just one important thing, i did not get the ticket in time. It was too late for me to purchase the ticket when the letter arrived.
Well, i`m going to Sweden instead =)

By NOT taking up the Brixton tickets you are saying more about your status as a fan.
If all fans decided not to take their tickets, the next time (if ever) a Queen tour was announced there would be NO one-off gig purely for Queen fans (apart from the industry liggers who have also got tickets).

Haven't read all the pages, I'm new, but won the lottery and bought my tickets.
I have a few questions:
1) anyone from Italy??? I'm from Milan.
2) is there any hotel round the Brixton Academy making special offers for the gig? or there's an hotel you can suggest me?
3) 64,45 pounds in total... how it costs to be a fan...
Thanks a lot!

well they must still have some going as I got an email today saying I've won tickets.
Quite happy with it obviously, but didn't expect the email for sure.
4.95 for special delivery which costs 3.75 by Royal Mail??? I opted for venue pickup instead!

Well, would you believe it - just won the lottery!
Booked the tickets and changed my Easter weekend trip to come back a day early.
Rock and roll, etc...
