MB Dates Added Part 2
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.
5/14/13 Updated*
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!!

I will send another e-mail to them Robin asking for very definite clarification because this does not cover all the venues it is only the Glasgow one where the actual details of what the VIP Package contain that are not shown anymore on the page for buying the Glasgow tickets; so who is going to buy VIP Packages when they don't know what they are going to contain and they are still selling them in Glasgow. As I have said though when I enquired earlier I was told it was the same as all the other venues so if it is still the same why take it away.....I don't understand it. Each venue, for the VIP Package, except the RAH, are all the same price so how can they charge the same if the Package at Glasgow is different from the other venues....something has gone wrong I have looked at my confirmations to see details about tickets but each one says Gigs & Tours do not have the tickets yet and they will be dispatched as soon as they are received and yet people have said on Twitter that they have got their tickets; obviously through other vendors but as Gigs & Tours were the ones promoted alongside Ticketmaster you would have thought both would have had the tickets at same time.
Also too the funny thing is that the Glasgow concert is starting earlier than any others and that again is what is making me think that Michael is not going to stay in Scotland, he is going to do what he did before and travel down into England and taking when the concert is supposed to finish and giving him about a half hour to tidy up and leave theatre it would give him his 4 hour journey into where I think he will go in England and he will arrive about 1.00 a.m. in time to have meal and go to bed at normal time about 3.00 a.m. Possibly at beginning nothing was shown for Glasgow because VIP Packages shouldn't have been shown as being on sale because they were never meant to be. Maybe that is me just being purely pessimistic again and maybe everything will work out okay....but and I feel it is one huge BUT !!!!

Hey Sylvia-I sure hope you will get your VIP package as advertised. Also, MB could see the VIP people BEFORE the show Sylvia. Sometimes they have before-show meet/greets also. Keep that in mind ok.. I've seen VIP's come out of pre-concert meet/greets many times and take seats as the lights are going down as MB is just getting to the stage. They are still wearing passes and coming to sit down front usually after seeing him. Just an FYI. I would think the tickets would soon be sent by them too but who knows since the concerts aren't till next year, it could be some time yet till they print them. I'd ask them all that if it were me. Ask for someone in charge if you get no answers, you spent your money and you have a right to know what you are getting for it. Different ticket outlets here do their own tickets differently..I did get the Annapolis ones from a company I had never used before called Ticketfly out of CA and they did send the tix in two weeks of my purchase. However the Ramshead people here in MD who are arranging the concert also told me if I never got them from Ticketfly they could also reprint them and send them or Will Call them.. that was good to know for backup and the Ramshead people are putting on the show and renting the venue for the concert in Annap. So all kinds of situations come up with these shows and different people in the mix these days. I sure hope you get some solid info soon. I'm sending positive vibes your way. Don't give up on this, you all that purchased packages are the customers in this. You just are asking for details for what you paid for as it was advertised during the pre-sales.
Robin in MD :)

Just to say that tickets for the German Tour in 2014 are advertised through the German Ticketmaster site as going on sale from tomorrow, 6th November at 9.45 a.m. Below is link directly into the Ticketmaster page for Michael's concerts.
http://www.ticketmaster.de/search.php?tm_link=tm_header_search&...
Also there is an advert out on Twitter that Michael is playing Fallsview Casino, Niagara, on 14th and 15th February, 2014. and tickets for that go on sale 8th November. I have sent the advert I found to Gail.
Also too Francoise has put a notice which again is out on Twitter from the Grammy Museum in the Miscellany thread showing that Michael is taking to the stage at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles on Monday, 11th November when Berry Gordy and Smokey Robinson are the Grammy's 2013 Honorees. Tickets for this event went on sale on 1st November.

Thanks a million Gail for checking on meet and greet in Glasgow....thanks !!! :)
Have to say that something or someone has made Gigs & Tours move for I have received this morning e-mails concerning all tickets bought BUT I do not like wording of e-mail for they are saying that everything is in hand so do not "worry" but they also say you should receive your tickets 14 days before concert and this is "normal" or even week before but if you have not received them within 2 working days of concert to get in touch with them. They also state NOT to get in touch with them before as they will not be able to help you.....as far as I am concerned (very sarcastically) what a wonderful way to do business. ALSO, as tour is nearly 3 weeks long and if you cover the whole tour, how do you get your tickets for last show if they don't arrive within a week or two weeks before show.....I could have problems with some of mine and most definitely would have had problems if a circumstance hadn't arisen and I had covered the 7 shows I had thought of as I would only have been arriving home one day before Glasgow show and would have been away for more than 2 weeks before: as it is I will be away one week before Bristol show and if I take a few days holiday before Cardiff could bring nearer to 2 weeks so if tickets haven't arrived for Bristol before I leave what do I do ??? BUT you are not supposed to get in touch with them and ask.....have a guess who will be getting in touch with them !!!!! LOL Know they probably will have contingency plans but the trouble is in your mind that is only a "probable" because they don't actually tell you and have tried to read some of their small print concerning tickets and I don't see anything specified. Think it is a case of; "watch this space" !!!!! LOL

Yes, yes, yes, tickets for Michael´s concerts in Munich and Stuttgart for a friend of mine from this fan club (Martina) and me just bought, always 1st row in the middle !!!!!
The sale was pretty transparent, clear, easy, everybody can choose a concrete row, a concrete seat. Just perfect !!!
I feel so happy !!!
So, see you then!
Ivana
P.S.
Message for Michael: please do not sing "How am I supposed to live without you" as a duet with Kelly but allow us to sing it for you (as audience !!). This is "the audience song" for you !!!

Sylvia, as we have never met in person, I hope to get to know you in the RAH next year. Do you know the other girls (Jennifer, 2x Helen, a girl from Irland (I cannot remember her name now) from the UK in person ?
I will go there with my brother and will be sitting in the row 18. My brother (38) is only afraid of being the only man between so many women ?!? He asked me whether there would be other man too?
