judyblue110 Posted November 7, 2016 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 Phil Collins also has an announcement imminent, for tomorrow morning. Are the currently announced dates just a warm up tour for this show? Could be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjsell Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Are prices for BST the same across the board for all headliners - or is there a variation depending on the perceived size of an act? Annoying as it is, it looks like I might be one of those suckers getting a ticket as a christmas present for someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No varies. £79 to £699 for Mr Collins according to someone in the Glastonbury section on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries obviously as usual with BST there's the caveat that they have a history of giving away any unsold tickets basically for free closer to the time, although there are probably enough rich middle-aged Tory's around to ensure ol' Phil sells out quite comfortably sadly Edited November 8, 2016 by Zac Quinn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnl Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 (edited) Is that the first time you've needed to pay a premium to get to the front? Sad times. Thought 95 quid for GA was bad enough but looks like you'll be miles away. No JohnL required! Diamond View is £450 if anyone has any spare change rattling around!

retromoz Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 that is scandalous! Once again, AEG Live showing NO regard for the average joe punter. Shocking.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paying to be in the front of the pit isn't unheard of at your big pop gigs these days, Beyonce makes a killing out of it for one example, it's really a surprise BST have taken so long to start doing it if this really is the first time. Not that that makes it okay mind. Edited November 8, 2016 by Zac Quinn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalplan Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Aye, this is what it's been since day uno. It's a festival in a Royal Park sponsored by a credit card company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wonderwhy Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 (edited) Its the first time premium view has been split in to two tiers and stretched across the entire length of the stage though.

Dom Wall Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Anyone think Kasabian could be a shout for one of these/Olympic park? I remember when they did their Leicester show this year they said they brought it forward a year because of the football success; a larger tour was maybe planned?

Pop Punk Sucks Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 (edited) Would be pretty crazy if they were booked for Hyde Park and Download. Bet a lot of their fans would be annoyed they bought Download tickets. Edited November 13, 2016 by Pop Punk Sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
