Wait for JT's official site to release tickets? Look at other sites? (Any recommendations?) Or hang on a few weeks/months? The show is in July.
    I've never gotten good seats on the sale date, and only once through a pre-sale (PM, you get a password which lets you buy tickets before the on-sale, but usually they aren't that great either). Whenever I've gotten good tickets, it's either been through last-minute luck or a broker - and this is even when I've been sitting at the computer and hitting 'Search' the INSTANT they go on sale.

    I'm with Soda on this. I've never gotten anything very good early either. I'd wait for them to release better tickets closer to the date. Just keep checking when the date gets close.

    Okay - I will try to wait a little while... Any idea on whether the official JT site might offer something better than Ticketmaster?

    After buying our Take That tickets, ticketmaster changed the site so that you can now chose your seat. Doesn't help me but it might help you Troubadour

    Perhaps if there's a fanclub, but that usually takes the form of a pre-sale.

    Ticketmaster isn't showing any tickets at the moment. They're on sale, but I'm not being offered anything, whatever options I hit. Just went onto the actual venue site, and all they are coming up with is the upper balcony. It says very limited tickets available. They only went on sale yesterday. Is this normal? I'm trying not to worry, but I'm a bit nervous!

    I have, Cathy, but I'm not sure I can really afford it at the moment... More accurately, my Mum is planning to come (because my grandparents live near the venue, so we can stay with them) and I'm pretty sure she won't want to spend that much on one ticket! Which I can totally understand. If it was just me, I'd probably go for it... But, for two tickets on the flat floor from that site, it would work out as £260. (£40 processing fees!) A bit steep.

    Thanks for the link, though - I will keep checking Ticketmaster and the various broker sites every day and keep you updated. I appreciate the help and advice!

    Sometimes those broker prices go down the closer it gets to the show. When I was looking for tickets last year to see JB in Indy I stalked those front row seats for weeks at http://www.vividseats.com/?utm_sourc...ats&vkid=14795 and watched them go from $170 to just under $100. Then I snagged them!
