See http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk for London, Manchester,Nottingham, Birmingham, Bournemouth and Glasgow dates. All shows are in June, except for Manchester, early July. In most cases, tickets go on sale this Friday, but check Ticketmaster for details.Glad Paul is playing ther Hammersmith Apollo in London, as that´s a cosy venue with great acoustics. I´m not a fan of the big arenas. These look like one-off dates, with no room in the schedule for additional gigs.

So the tickets go on sale. Unfortunately Paul plays in The Netherlandson 8 July. That´s exactly the day I´m supposed to go on holiday. In cannot postpone this.
Now I will try to leave one day earlier to see Paul (with my family) in Paris (on my way to Spain).
Or maybe he will perform in Spain as well.
Any ideas when the whole Euro-tour will be announced?

Wow, how lucky are we?! I´ve already got my Cork tickets but now another six to go to!

I think this must be more shows in a concentrated area than anywhere in America.

These are all really small venues as well so I can´t wait.

Great news. Hopefully I´ll get to see one of the show, although I´m not sure which yet.

One thing which the tour seems to have done is delay SBOSW´s release in the UK. Amazon.co.uk now list June 13th as the release date! I guess I´ll be importing it if that´s the case.

Anyone know how the pre-sale works?

If you´re an O2 customer, you can (apparently) buy tickets today. If not, register with Live Nation and you can buy tickets from tomorrow. Lastly, Ticketmaster sales start Friday.

Good grief, people are selling tickets on ebay already!

I´m an O2 customer, and I´m also registered with Livenation. Don´t know what to do for the best! Just tried with O2 and was offered row J in front stalls, not sure whether to take them or not, so came out of it.

Do any credit card holders get first
pick in Europe? I wonder if the venues
are any bigger? I can´t help it, Paul
should never have allowed this American
Express card thing to happen. I´ve waited years to see Paul.

Cher, here it seems to be that subscribers to the O2 network, who sponsor a number of venues, get first pick.

The ticket industry is in horrible shape these days. TicketMaster is practically a monopoly. Why on earth competition authorities have allowed this is beyond me.

I can buy tickets now as I´m with the O2 network, but I´m being offered seats in 10th and 11th rows. Not bad, but do wonder if I wait till Friday, I may get better. Probably won´t - just can´t decide what to do. Cher, they are smaller venues, which is what we want - Paul wouldn´t suit a huge arena.

Was hoping for a good weekend date - wondering if Liverpool will be added

I really can´t see any further dates being added. Six is already a massive amount for the UK alone and Manchester´s only a stone´s throw from Liverpool.

I´m based in Yorkshire and he never comes here or the North East so some travelling is on the cards.

Good luck. Simon.

Not used HMV tickets before Simon, it´s asking me to fill in name, address etc. before I know what seats they´re offering. Is that OK, can you turn them down when you get further along?
