Yikes! What was going to be a 2 week trip for London shows would now have to be a 3 week trip to go to the same shows! I will have to cancel half of my tickets and buy new ones. I am...call me totally COVID crazy...considering looking at a trip to Manchester/Glasgow....eek. Anyone who had not purchased tickets now looking at going? I am poor folk and prices there are nuts....but this far ahead MIGHT help with that....certainly with flights??? eta...OR...what tickets were you looking to exchange??? I was going to look and see which are my best London tickets before deciding. But will have to wait till after work. I would really like to go to visit Scotland, so might be an option to do Glasgow.

I went to Glasgow once, years ago. But it was a conference so did not see a lot...it was lovely tho...ate a deep fried blood sausage on a stick ...like a corn dog hehe...it was that or deep fried Mars bar!!

I'm seriously considering doing something now. But need to wait until I get through these medical issues. Giving me something to look forward to. I thought this year was too soon. Would possibly be interested in London for sure and Paris I think.

Well this makes me very happy that QAL did not cancel. I remember how DOWN it felt when Adam cancelled the last of his Velvet tour. It really hurt even more when the Vegas Residency was a no go. QAL is more hopeful and something to hang on to. If anyone could get another re-schedule it is Queen. Did we ever hear anything about Rock in Rio? We saw notice that QAL and Post Malone would be headliners but nothing official. That was for Sept. 21. Over 7 months from now but likely cancelled too.

Deja vu re the first QAL TOUR when the Sonisphere Festival 2012 was cancelled. I thought —- WOW- once in a life time Adam Lambert and Queen, so off to the UK and make a holiday of it. Well we now know, the union of QAL has only gotten stronger, with many opportunities since. So thankful, they helped out fans by organizing the three Hammersmith concerts in lieu of the festival. Yet, I remember the angst when some folks lost money on non refundable hotels, or the pain of deciding to travel by rail to London for the shows versus losing their hotel charges. The dates changed so travel/airline ticket changing affected/effected many. And of course the angst of new accommodations and ticket purchases. Lucky for me..I lost no money, not so fortunate for many. This fanning is fraught with many risks ...funny but not funny . I was going to attend my first ever music festival.. ..so was sorry for that loss. I had VIP Sonisphere TICKETS —so no muckin’ around in mud, or standing, for hours. I had a seat, food, toilet areas, available. Plus over the three days, I thought I would hear so many bands and artists. But at least they promptly refunded all monies.
