yeah i did it cleared a week ago the only assurance they gave me was that if my ticket does'nt arrive in 5 days before the gig i have to phone them again.(but the excuse they gave me was that the havent got any tickets off the supplier at all)

I wouldn't be too concerned, if nothing else you can always pick them up at will-call (NME or whoever just leaves the ticket with the venue box office for and you pick them up the day of the gig). As long as you have your proof that the tickets are payed for (and you may need the credit card you payed with) you shouldn't have a problem.

Well I don't mean to stress anyone but I only booked my ticket on Sunday and it came today. (I finally decided I wasn't taking the risk of being on the guest list so got one anyway!)

BUT let me explain, I didn't get my ticket from NME I got it from The Forum website which uses Wayahead as their box office and they are in my home town of Nottingham. The tickets for Wayahead as one of the largest agencies in the UK are printed direct by Wayahead with just the "Mean Fiddler" (who run the Forum)logo, they keep blanks.

NME on the other hand will be waiting for their tickets to be sent by either the Forum or Wayahead themselves. This doesn't mean that your tickets haven't been allocated they just haven't been printed yet. They will wait until there is only "one" posting of tickets to NME for them to send on. Probably 10 days or so before the gig.

Hopefully this means that the tickets will be with you all in time. If not call the number for the NME helpline and they can arrange for collection at the venue on the day.

By the way my ticket number wasn't even 500 so there's a good chance this gig isn't going to sell out. The UK music industry is so fickle it will take a couple of great, even though they're not sell out, shows for NME to start raving about the Vines again. And that probably means Reading and Leeds as this will get people back on side who just pop along out of curiosity!

yeha but you are living in uk and Cécile and an I in france, so it takes much time for the tickets to come

oh my!! its scares me that you said they printed them 10days before the show

what is that system you ahev guys!! in france we could have the ticket 4 onth before the show !! they are prinetd immetiatly !!!!
oh i'm anxious now

The ten days bit is just a guess....but what I'd do is call the help line one week before you leave and if they still haven't got them get them to put them on the door for you.

You are so lucky ! i'm more than stressed right now, i can't stop thinking about it ! Anyway if i don't get them i (fortunatly pray.gif) printed the page when you finished to book your tickets and that's written on i booked my tickets tongue.gif maybe it'll work if i don't receive them !

But i thought i should call them but i dunno if it's expensive, does someone know ?
wonkytooth
cecile, why don't you give them until monday. if you still haven't gotten your tix by then, call the venue and tell them and ask if bringing your purchase confirmation number and ID will be enough.

that confirmation page you printed should do the trick, but it's worth the long distance expense to call and be sure.

good luck. hug.gif
mary_jane83
Aww thanks hug.gif

It's all right now, i just received a call from Nadia and she told me that she called NME.com or something like that and huuum in fact i and all the french people won't receive the tickets ! I just needed to have that page i printed and then you'll show it at the venue so i'm really really feeling okay now, i was so stressed wacko.gif
cherry blossom girl
^aw... my poor cécile hug.gif u didnt need to stress over that... as long as u paid, and can prove u did, they have to give ur ticket smile.gif

And thanks to Nadia for calling the NME! biggrin.gif
