Ok, got a ticket for myself in Block 112 but up high so I ONLY had to pay over a hundred pounds!!
Anyway, for a laugh I typed in the VIP package and noticed a couple of things that no-one on here has picked up on yet.

Number 1 - the ticket I was offered was Block A3 row P for £575 a ticket!!!- so what do you get for the extra £300 over the normal Block A seats? It doesn't explain on the site what you are paying for.

Anyway I looked at the seating plan and it seems to show some sort of golden circle in front of the Block A seats and is in two halves, numbered 1 and 2. I can only assume that if you buy the VIP package at £575 a ticket you might get let into this golden circle for a bit!!!

Wow - thats worth it then!

Also - to all those people who paid £200 a ticket for Block A seats - you are not as close to the stage as you probably think you are going to be cos theres this golden circle in front of you!!!

Its a disgrace, never known anything like it in 20+ years of concert going. Hurts when its your favourite band as well.

I think people did notice the 'pit' in front of the blocked seats and that has added to the anger. Over £200 and you're still going to be about 40ft from the stage minimum.

Just noticed that seb posted a picture of the seating plan in an earlier thread so perhaps people did know - theres so many threads on here to look through today I didn't see that one!!

I just can't see these shows selling out, people don't have that much disposable income during a recession.

Someone posted the map on here last night, I originally thought that this might of been the 200 tickets!! yeah right..

This morning there was a platinum and gold package also available on ticketmaster (they have now disappeared) and they advertised the seats as the vip section, so this is obviously what they were referring to
