They say in all the emails communication to not share the links to non-members sadly. The first rule of Cherry Tree presales is that you do not talk about Cherry Tree presales.

ghostdancer1 Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 i've seen non-US based people elsewhere say that it isn't worth it, due to the shipping costs for the vinyl/merch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grayfitz Posted January 21, 2020 Report Share Posted January 21, 2020 For $65 I'd say it's borderline worth it - if you weren't into vinyl and didn't live anywhere near where they pass through on tours it probably wouldn't be. Besides the presale codes for all their shows (I used it twice last year, BST and Glasgow) there's a Cherry Tree store with exclusive merch and every show poster gets a Cherry Tree variant - shipping isn't too bad as they have a UK shipping location. The vinyl they shipping for the first year was good, and the package also had a tote bag, a Cherry Tree fabric patch and scarf - which was a lot more than I think was expected.

ivan Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I have a ticket for Limerick and sorted out accommodation there. Prob gonna take my motor bike and have a pootle round Ireland for a few days before and treat it as a mini holiday. Taking a bike means ferries from Scotland and back to Wales is less than £100 return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lessthanwill1 Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Managed to get tickets to one of the Brixton shows this morning. So excited! First time seeing one of my all time favourite bands (have somehow managed to miss them when they’ve been around previously). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't be cheap keeping them on the road in Europe so i have no complaints about any band putting dates on the calendar to keep the money coming in . I won't name the English band , but one of their members wrote an interesting piece about the cost of touring the US , paying for the crew , fuel , the bus and no gig evenings were a drain on their finances .

Any reason why you can't name the band if it is public? Just sounds an interesting piece to read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robofish Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I paid £5 for a payg O2 Sim just to get access to O2 priority for this. Now going both nights. Much better VFM than a Cherry Tree membership 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if you sent a message or two to some WhatsApp groups a friend would pop up who happened to be on O2. All you need then is their number and the code that O2 text to them. One for next time!
