Yes, but the concerts for mainland Europe sent out the tickets immediately. It's a question of how to print the tickets. Make them non-copiable.
true, but to an extent they can always be copied pretty accurately. Firstly, they;ll never check them that closely, they can't do with so many people. And if somebody is selling them on, unless you know exactly what you're looking for, you don't know if what you're buying is a fake or not

The tickets are made of card and have a picture on them of BJ and they also have the bounce logo as a hologram.

Did anyone from the UK book tickets, GOLD STANDING to be specific for one of the other shows outside London via the AMERICAN EXCESS pre-sale which took place a few days prior to the General on-sale dates.

I just wonder as that is where my tickets where booked from although not by me.

I was on the FAQs section of the Ticketmaster website and it said that they are "Currently preparing" the Ibrox Glasgow tickets for distribution with the aim of starting to distribute them in early May.

I did, I booked GS for both Manchester and Wolverhampton through XS as well as Hyde Park, so far, I have only received my HP tix. The others will come in time - it's being done in batches. The latest I have ever received my tix was 3 weeks before the shows, don't fret peeps, they will arrive

Just as a comparison to illustrate the variation in TMs distribution policy.

Bon Jovi is not the only band I am going to see in the near future. As well as seeing them at Ibrox, I also have booked to see The Rolling Stones at the SECC in September. I booked via Ticketmaster online on MAY 2nd and had my account debited about 3/4 days later. Too my delight I received my ticket in the post today.

Now thats what I call service, pity they can't get their act together for BJ.
