Has anyone received their hard tickets yet?

I have had my manchester tickets (Ticketmaster) for about 5 days now.

Yes if you bought them on Ticketmaster you can check the status of despatch on line and also if you did it on line they send you an email telling you when they have been despatched/ Honeyrose

I checked my status on the Ticketmaster website: still not despatched (for O2). Getting really really p*ssed off about it - on principle. They're keeping my tickets (and me) hostage. I can't get them in person from the Arena, I have to wait here for Ticketmaster to decide when to send me something I bought over two weeks ago. I will wait the customary 28 days and then email customer service. I'm definitely not waiting until five days before the show. *fuming*

I received two of the four tickets I ordered for Toronto Saturday. I got 2 thru the fan-club presale, and 2 thru Amex. It is the AMEX tix I received.

I found them in an odd place in the house, because my dememted mother-in-law was staying with us for the week, and I am worried sick that the other two are someplace else. So I will check Ticketmaster dispatch, as sopme kind soul on this forum suggested.

We are taking my husband's (and by extension, my) two teenage sons, who know of our longtime love for Leonard (which brought us together 4 years ago). They are not thrilled, but are "willing to go (!)" for our sakes, and because we are taking them out of school, and to see Toronto. They will be sitting in the Z seats in the back (still $175!) and we will take the L seats. It kills me to know some really enthusiastic LC fans could have been in those seats, but we are praying that some of LC's class will rub off on them. We took them to see David Sedaris read some of his short stories last year, and they did enjoy that, so I suppose there is hope......

had my manchester ticket for a long time, about a couple of days after ordering
(but not via ticketmaster, can't remember the agency now - and since i got a loudly purring very happy cat 20 year old cat sitting on my lap, it would be rude chuck him off to get up to go to the fridge to check the ticket - it takes it out of him to muster up the energy to leap on my lap these days, so it would be mean.....)

berlin tickets arrived via fedex also a couple of days after ordering (justfying the whopping euro 40 additional cost added to ticket price somehow.....)

it does indeed feel very good to have them physically in your hand

Manchester Friday night tickets arrived this morning

[Paula]

I quite understand your reticence in moving the cat. I speak as someone who can only ever see half of a computer screen and has a permanent stiff neck from having a cat snoozing in front of the screen.

JeannieJayne –I hope your boys enjoy the show I got my kids to appreciate Leonard by constant bombardment and threats.

Hi Bela,

As well as tickets for 2 of Leonard's shows I also ordered a ticket to see Katie Melua in November at Bournemouth International Centre through Ticketmaster on the 16 January and it still hasen't come (or been dispatched), not expecting it until October probably!
I expect the 02 tickets to be sent out a month after the Manchester ones as it is aprroximately a month later.
I know what you mean about wanting the ticket because until you actually get it in your hand you are never sure are you!

Hi all,

Just a quick note for those on the thread who are anxiously awaiting the appearance of their Dublin tickets through the letterbox. The dispatch note in the order details under "my ticketmaster" has changed from your order has not been dispatched to "Your order is being prepared for dispatch" for tickets purchased on Friday 14th - I think this means that they are probably on the way (This is what it says in relation to other tickets i ordered and recieved months ago)

Thanks, Alan. I don't trust those people at all.

I have my tickets for Manchester, but not for O2. I also have my tickets for Lyon. They have an excellent system whereby you can print your tickets out instantly at home. They look a bit odd, as each ticket is a whole sheet of A4 (you're supposed to fold it in 4 - there's a nice little diagram showing you how), but it's so much less wearing on the nerves than waiting for Ticketmaster/Seetickets/whoever to come up with the goods via the post.

Hey, a lot of you seem to have your actual tickets already. I have checked out Ticketmaster and for the three dates i have paid for tickets (Dublin, Manchester and the O2) 'have not yet been despatched'.

So i guess I will have to wait until Ticketmaster get around to sending any of them out - I agree, it's a bit concerning to have no actual tickets, but only an eletronic printout of your order (and two of mine were bought by phone, so i don't even have a printout of the order, only shows up as money gone from my bank account!)
