I was having trouble with the MB Dates Added thread going to the last page so I'm thinking it is at it's limit so starting this new thread.

You are going to find a number of things on the web and on band member's websites before I announce, or they end up in the Tour section here, or MB's official Facebook and I want to explain why.  Michael's management and tour people start setting things up and working with promoters and venues most times a long time before we hear about them. There are logistics that have to be worked out as well as schedules, deposits, agreements, etc that are all signed and ok'd before Michael's people consider them confirmed.  The band member's may put them on their websites also before we do because they are given the dates while they are being worked on, so they will hold those dates in their busy schedules as well. A lot of the band do other gigs when they aren't with Michael so they are asking them to hold those dates.  Promoters and venues sometimes post before all is confirmed on Michael's end as well because they want to get the word out and tickets sold but sometimes that works against them and most of us have seen that happen when a concert doesn't work out and tickets have to be refunded or taken down with no explanation. Most of the times the ones you find on websites of the venues or band member's sites do work out but because there is the chance they might not until all i's are dotted we don't post on the main page until it is!!

There was a fault on the site at beginning Margaret but got corrected. London page did not have access to the two categories of VIP tickets and when did appear there was still no seats coming up that had been allocated. I didn't buy and had to come out and refresh three times before it corrected and it was nearly 10.15.   If it doesn't say on your confirmation e-mail I would be inclined to check Margaret.

Hi Sylvia

I was on there dead on 10am and could see all categories of ticket, had a look at all of the arena level options.  I refreshed a couple of times and I didn't decide and buy until at least 10.20am but still didn't get an option to choose.  I will definitely check and will be making the biggest fuss imaginable if my account has been deducted and I don't have a seat.  Thanks for letting me know.

Hi

For once, I logged on to gigs and tours before sale, as have had trouble once got to checkout before!!! Got straight on to RAH and got seat no before checkout so happy. Decided to go with arena seat, no vip,keep the rescheduled in Manchester, as pre show, not after and see what happens.

The customer service team did not get back to me after an query email, and the Live Chat didn't work, so I phoned See Tickets tonight and they were most bemused by the situation.  They confirmed that I did not actually have a seat allocated to me, so booked me the best they had there and then, and have asked me to alert anyone else in the same situation to contact them urgently, Don't delay, because the general sale starts tomorrow.

Thanks again Sylvia.

Glad you got it sorted out Margaret because found that more than strange for your situation for I had heard another girl who did not get an option up when she booked her ticket but her seat was detailed in the e-mail confirmation she got.

I will put out a post on my page on FB to alter people so thanks for heads up, thanks !!! :)

JFI the pre-sale has closed and site is showing, for each venue ... "Pre-Sale Sold Out"  Whether it is just closed but no closing time was given at beginning  and seems strange if in that instance it doesn't just say "closed" so looks more as though so many seats were allocated for the pre-sale and they have all gone.  Know it was on, or before, 5.00 pm when it closed.  I personally thought that would run until Friday when General Sale starts

I thought the same as you Sylvia! Didn't realise there'd be a close on the Pre-Sale! Bugger!!! 

Oh well, I guess I'll be logging on first thing tomorrow morning to book Cardiff tickets! Still got the Evening With VIP package to look forward to! Baffles me how there is so much criticism! MB has been up front throughout the confusion. Read on a Facebook post of the TL&T UK Tour Announcement that people were accusing him of defrauding fans and what's the difference between the Evening with and the TL&T tour! Thought it was pretty obvious myself!! 

Hi James and good to see you on here.  How I believe the pre-sale was done was so many seats in different categories were allocated to it and once they had gone they closed it.  How many were allocated I don't know but do believe not a case of all seats in say front rows allocated so  not a case of they have all gone so people tomorrow will still be able to pick them up and hope, if you are looking for, you are lucky !!! :)

Take care James !!! :)

Just for info folks Michael will be in UK next week doing promo work for tour.  It was announced at end of Lorraine show today that he will be on next week and believe it may well be Wednesday he will be on with her.  Check out BBC Breakfast Show on Monday just in case he pops up there.  Will start checking to see if can find anywhere else and will post as soon as do,  Have asked Michael, on Twitter, for a schedule when replying to a girl's tweet about what she had heard.  Hopefully, we will find out more.
