Refreshed at 10am, straight through to the ticket page. Bagged one for the second London date. Absolutely buzzing. Roundhouse is gonna go off!

[zero000]

In for Manchester! Managed to get 7 tickets between us, but two of our friends missed out. The tickets are going to fly out tomorrow.

The Friday thing is pretty annoying tbh but it is what it is. The shows were always going to be popular, especially considering the venue as well. Just happy to even have a ticket tbh.

Does make you wonder how many tickets she’d have shifted at Wembley Arena. It seems fairly clear the smaller venues weren’t due to a lack of demand, just wonder how big that demand actually is. Super glad she’s gone for the Roundhouse though, shows will be electric.

Not sure if you get bank holidays off work, but Thursday 2nd June will be a bank holiday next year because of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.

Haha! Didn't clock that at all. Friday is a bank holiday too...absolutely awesome. That's changed the whole dynamic of this gig for us.

Just about managed to get Leeds tickets. Logged on early, but got bored waiting for 10am, and the next time I checked it was 10.12 and sold out! Some Glasto style relentless refreshing did the trick

Yep, it's great! I didn't realise either until my mate mentioned it. Lorde and a 4 day weekend 🙂

She's made a good decision, I think. Like you say, the buzz inside Roundhouse will be unreal.

Back of the net! That's an excellent result. Four day weekend in London, hello!

Lorde, RTJ and The Flaming Lips all playing in London on 2nd June. 

Quite fitting to have clashes the month Glastonbury returns. 

[Harry49]

Straight in this morning for the Manchester gig. Can’t wait for May 2022 Michael K in Blackpool, Flaming Lips in Liverpool and now Lorde. Build up to Glastonbury going nicely.

They had gone by the time I saw this, but they are available on O2 Priority.  I missed out at 10am - waiting room first, then by the time I got in there were only balcony seats available, so refreshed it to see if standing came up, which was a mistake because it then showed everything as sold out.  So I've ended up with balcony tickets from O2 which I could have had at 10.01.

There is also golden circle available on O2. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Standing seems to still be available:

I'm still getting an "event sold out" message on there, which is what I was getting earlier - never mind, we're in anyway. 

[Suprefan]

Im surprised that people arent taking advantage of the one venue thats all GA and instead just settling for not good seats for the same price. San Francisco has the largest venue at 9000 yet isnt close to sold out yet. Meanwhile 3 dates in southern california have some tickets still left. People are either weird or just dont realize there are options.

[lessthanwill1]

Managed to get four for the Friday date! Buzzing! 

[Justiceforcedave]

Went straight for Wednesday (figured it'd be less popular) and bagged two tickets.

[Matt42]

In a meeting that ran over and missed again. Universe doesn't want me to attend this gig. Have fun folks! X

Got 2x for Friday at Roundhouse with no issues. I saw she was trending on Twitter the other day when the presale went live because it sold out in seconds, so was expecting much worse. Looking at the Roundhouse website again now and they're still available, so not sure what all the stress was about.

[Hugh Jass]

Completely forgot about the sale this morning and looks like they’re all gone.

Ah well, spent far too much money on tickets anyway. Will catch her at Glastonbury.

Suspect it's all part of the hype - we don't know how many tickets were available in the presale so putting a few on sale for them to be snapped up in seconds and create a buzz is fairly effective marketing.

[Hutchmaster]

There are still tickets available on the Roundhouse website! If anyone wants one let me know, I'm through the queue.

Tbf a lot of people will give up after trying the likes of seetickets, ticketmaster etc without thinking to check the actual venue’s website or other places so it’s often the case that there are tickets remaining there after the initial instant sellout on the ticket sites.
