So I'm meant to send my tickets back, spend another £20 on two more and then do what? In the next 13 fucking days!

Well that's fucking shit.

ARGH THEY ARE SUCH FUCKCUNTERS


I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO

ITS IN THIRTEEN DAYS

Yeah, you're likely going to be out of pocket for both gigs for a while. Can't believe they do this so close to the gig.

I am worried this is a scam. Why wouldn't they just refund your money by having you go to the place of purchase or put it back on your credit card.

Have they refunded you your money?

I think Kieran and others contacted TGA who then contacted the venue to sort things out.

Final word is that the tickets WILL be valid, but the gig will be in a half empty venue.

Praying the same doesn't happen to Manchester.

London was the smallest show on the tour and now potentially the worst

no worries mate, just make sure to have even more fun.

I MySpaced the band about this, I real pissed about the venue change then only been half open. Still a Gaslight show is better then no Gaslight show.

I spoke to Brian after their set at Reading Fest and it turns out the promoter just changed it without telling them. But they said the reasoning was fair enough if more kids get to see them.
