Amy Lawn Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Should I be worried that it doesn't show in the orders on my gigsandtours account yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartbert two hats Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Mrs Hats loves Arcade Fire - she got me properly into them when we saw them at t'Other in 2007. This is going to be the fifth time I've seen them. Can't wait! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon_Fields Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Expensive ticket day for me, took the gamble to go for Arcade Fire first, got two, then only just got one for Nick Cave immediately after, and will complete the hat-trick with Jason Isbell at 10. Phew! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. Mine only just came through, happy days! 1 minute ago, GETOFFAMYLAWN said: Should I be worried that it doesn't show in the orders on my gigsandtours account yet? If you've got a booking reference, I wouldn't worry. You can always contact customer service. I bet it'll appear on your account around the same time the email comes through.

stuartbert two hats Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 So, what's the deal with these daytime Castefield gigs? Has anyone been to one before? It starts at five Is there loads of support, or are Arcade Fire going to play in the middle of the day and we're all home in time for tea?

TheNewUnion Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Needed 3, only got 2 on Seetickets. Not been able to get back in to buy another. On the plus side, there are loads on Viagogo.... Not sure what to do now, who do Iet down for a ticket? Might just hang on see if anything turns up nearer the time.

Doors were 6pm for that, support at about 7.30 and she started just after 9. Only really dark for her encore but still a lovely atmosphere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starts at 5, Arcade Fire won't be on until 7 I guess. I saw Bjork - from afar - at the Festival 2 years ago, she was playing early evening. For those who aren't familiar, Manchester International Festival is only for new commissions, so it won't just be a regular AF gig, there will be something new (Like of course they did for the Reflektor tour) Edit: Above post more accurate than mine!!

They usually have two or three supports so can't wait to see who's playing before AF. Will be finished before 11 with its being a residential area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's anything like seetickets then sometimes they don't show up straight away but you can check your order status if you have the reference number, I have the same panic every year with Glastonbury tickets.

Paul ™ Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 (edited) Works out well for me, finish work 2pm that Thursday then train/bus from Nottingham to Manchester, so will be taking the Friday off too. Go to the gig, get a cheap hotel then head over to a campsite near Jodrell Bank to meet the OH with the campervan for the Orbital day on the Saturday Edited February 17, 2017 by Paul ™ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember seeing Bjork play the same venue as part of MIF a couple of years back and I don't think the show was anything different from the rest of her tour? So I'm guessing AF will just be another stop on their tour as well, nothing unique to make it stand out, who knows.
