I was hoping that the thief was going to turn up to the show wearing my jacket but didn't happen. Great gig though. - -----Original Message----- From: owner-seven-seas@smoe.org [mailto:owner-seven-seas@smoe.org] On Behalf Of Diane Sent: 28 November 2007 11:55 To: seven-seas@smoe.org Subject: Re: seven-seas albert hall tix Standing tickets will be sent registered - hence the additional charge. Seats will be sent by normal post - basically, if someone steals your tickets in the post, you could kick them out of your numbered seat! (It'd be more difficult to trace someone standing....)

I would like to add that I/We that's Mrs KP and myself found ourselves in a ruck with the RAH stewards just a coupla Saturdays ago whilst attempting to take our seats in the 6th row that were occupied........'just follow those people to the box office they'll sort you out with other seats'..........'but it's sold out there are no more seats'........'yes, yes, just follow them'........'no we want the seats on our tickets'..........'but you need to follow them'.........'but you need to get the people in the wrong seats in the right seats'..............By now we're standing 'tween row A and the stage.........'can I just see you tickets please?' (Ken desperately trying to recall the touts name on the ticket)........'ah yes you purchased them through ticketmaster - had you purchased them direct thru us we could have done something'.............'bollix they're your ticket agent'.....'yes but you need to follow those people'............'Ok lets get one thing clear right now we either sit there (points to seats) or we sit there (points to seats on stage) but we're not going anywhere else we paid for those seats and thats where...etc etc' So eventually 2 women moved 3 rows forward to row 3 and everyone moved along and we sat down. (There's more) So's I's points outs tos Mrs KP 'The people whoose seats those are will turn up and then.....??' Sure enough they do the ushers/stewards take them away to never be seen again........how fucked off would you be to get 3rd row seats at RAH to be taken off to some shit sited seat at the back of the clouds. So just to warn Tijn we're seats 19 and 20 HOOOOOOOOORAAAHHHHHH - I look forward to meeting you Sir. Infact that's a big look forward to loads hopefully.
