Hey- I've been reading the daily threats for 2 years but mostly just lurked without posting anything. English isnt my first language and I'm always a little scared of writing the wrong things. I'm totally overhelmed by trying to decide which tickets to buy and when The email I got from Queen said German presale tickets will go on sale tomorrow morning. But I followed the link to eventim.de & there its written that the presale will start on thursday (which would't be good because I could skip my art lessons tomorrow but my mom probably won't let me stay home from school on thursday). I need three seated tickets for Frankfurt and I would prefer them to be next to each other. Since I've never bought tickets before I'm horribly nervous I'll miss something important. So some advice would be great: Is it better (and cheaper) to buy tickets during presale or should I wait for general sale on saturday? Sorry I don't know anything about it but it will be my first time seeing Adam live and I've waited almost 3 years for him to come to Germany again. So excited! If there are other presale links can someone please PM them to me? Thanks! Hey trueffel! Did your question get answered admist the madness? And your English is fine! (Heck, orders of magnitude better than my German) The short version is: Tickets are no cheaper during presale, but there is security in getting them early. The main sales could give you better tickets...or worse ones. There's not a good way to know since no one has an inkling what the general sales are going to be like. CONGRATS AND GOOD LUCK! ETA: Are you allowed to take your mobile to school? Can you check on tickets during lunch? (I can't advise you to skip class, you'll get in trouble!) ETA2: Another option is to ask your mom to buy the tickets while you're in school (if she'd do it). Or you and another person (mom, friend, whoever) "tag team" the sales. That means, both of you try for tickets and whoever gets them first (or better tickets), buys them and the other person throws their tickets back. My husband and I did that for one of the North American stops. But, that method does require the ability to recieve phone calls and/or texts while the ticket-buying process is going on.

Oh - and Stuttgart is only 100 km away from my home I D O N' T B E L I E V E I T!!!! T H I S I S BATSHIT C R A Z Y !!!!!!
Happy happy happy for you!!! Good luck buying tickets! (But I am a bit sad as well, because it seems that we won't meet this time. I think Stuttgart is a bit too far away, although Frankfurt could be possible. Oh no... more decisions!)

Thanks for the reply! I talked to my mom and she'll try to get tickets once the presale starts tomorrow morning Unfortunately we are pretty much forbidden to even take out our phones at school. I hope she'll get the tickets we want! If not I'm going to try myself on Saturday morning Congrats to everybody who already got tickets!

It's been over 8 hours and I still can't believe I am going to 5 shows. I'm still in shock. I cannot seem to focus at work very well. You are going to have so much fun. The next three months will be planning and anticipating, followed by whirlwind aural/visual euphoria, then "Wait, did that just happen?", then months probably years of secret smiles and pleasurable memories. Part of that memory that has always carried over for me is knowing that I did something so outrageous just for myself. It really makes you feel good. It really does make me feel good. We all need to do things for ourselves once in awhile.

This may sound like a dumb question, but does Adam have full control of his own Twitter account? Nobody ever tweets on his behalf do they? No! He has reiterated it many times! Twitter is 100% him! As a matter of fact, when it got hacked, while he was in Sweden earlier this year, it stayed that way until he was able to get to it! Ok thanks! I love that he tweeted about the tour exactly at 2AM my time. That is priceless.

Could someone PM me the pre-order code - please and thank you!
Can't believe an Atopper already nabbed tickets to 5 concerts. Now that's bloody brilliant! Hope to see some of you at one or more concerts somewhere over the pond. Like many of you, I didn't have time to do my homework on flights/best concert halls yet. Have to dive in instead!
