Sorry I don't want you panicking!  From what I saw at eventim.de and getgo.de most of the good seats are sold in Dortmund. You know this venue does have seats only. I'm not sure about the actual amount of sold seats as other ticketcorners will have an amount by theirselves. So don't panik!  You said you wanted to go in front of the stage, so their still no prob to get tickets for it in Munic and the other venues without seats in front of the stage. |

The whole thing is quite odd. First they tell us tickets won't be sold until 24. january and now?  |

Don't worry Tiger, they will come. I've read something about dutch tour dates will be announced later that month. I'm certain they do more than just one dutch gig.  |

I was a bit too fast btw regarding the German venues. It turned out that the second amount of seats are on sale now. There are still very good ones to catch.  |

OK, this is what I did last midnight after reading Eliza's post: I PANICKED. I tried to phone Queenie who was online, had a voddie, checked all the ticket sites and Dortmund's tickets (at least those for the centre of the venue) are sold out. After going nuts for 30 min. Queenie called me and we did book tickets for Munich (standing tickets and I am going to see you, Eliza!!!), Frankfurt (standing tickets I think) and Dortmund (miles away from the stage). But now I am at least relieved that I will see them. But still I wonder WHY for f***'s sake the ticket went into sale yesterday afternoon. If Eliza hadn't posted this I would still be totally unaware of this all. WHO the hell plans the tour? And Tiger, I am still 100 % sure they'll play Holland. They must! One of the PEB's lives there so they will go!!!! *hug* |

I'm quite upset as well. According to the German fanclub the tickets were supposed to go on sale much later. Somebody of the fanclub board posted about the tickets were on sale now and everybody panicked. The whole tour organisation is a farce! The left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing or something like that. Well, it doesn't matter if you dicide having standing tickets though. But for those who have to rely on seats, it's a disgrace! I'm looking very much forward to meet you and your friend Queenie, Boss! Btw, I'm not familiar with that big venues so tips are always appreciated. |

Brigitte, why didn't you book via the Fanclub in advance? There still is the chance to get good tickets for Dortmund! Maybe you can cancel the ones you've bought already. Go and check the GQFC site for news. Munich is almost sold out. Just a few crappy standing tickets miles away opposite of the stage.  I've never believed it would go so quick. This venue has space for 14000 people after all! |

Yeah, it's strange. They even canceled the scheduled press conference later this month.  Looks like they would enjoy seeing us panicking! And even worse is the fan convention thing. It's a shame Brian and Roger obviously don't care much about their fans in this matter.  |

Looks like they would enjoy seeing us panicking! I don't think it's Rog/Brian's/Jim's fault that the sale alredy started. Looks more like Lieberberg got the tickets on sale as soon as possible to make sure as many as possible are sold. For what they are responsible partly is the ticket prizes! And even worse is the fan convention thing. It's a shame Brian and Roger obviously don't care much about their fans in this matter. Again I think it's not their fault. The tour seems to be a bit rushed together (with too less time for a proper planning, etc.). The concert promoter checks the venues and books them. And since they are planning this thing really late (like Brian wrote in December they would check venues) - they have to take what is offered to them. Tour venues are usually planned a year ahead and not 4 months! The only thing that is really annoying me is that both Queenonline.com AND Brian are not making any statement for this mess this causes so much headaches. AND no official release of venues and dates (and if it wouldn't be because of Thomas we'd still wouldn't know much. He's a kind guy. We emailed a bit during the last few days.  . |

I guess you are right with the convention and the tour. It all came out of a sudden. I'm asking why? When was that Gibson Guitar thing, where Paul Rodgers and the guys met? From that time on they made plans of coming back on stage. That's at least what Brian told us. Do you mean Thomas Zeidler? I'm sure you do. Yes, he seems to be a nice guy. He even was the very first one who actally wrote about the new tour in his article. He seems to have many insider knowledge and to be close in touch with Brian. Get him asking Brian about the wooden blocks and to give Roger some hints on the thing. LOL |

You said you wanted to go in front of the stage, so their still no prob to get tickets for it in Munic and the other venues without seats in front of the stage.
