Sadness in Berlin turns to joy -- October 4, 2008

Post by isabelclements »

Still very disappointed that Berlin was cancelled,we bought tickets and flights,I'm gutted!I've not heard any news about why,a little explaination would have soothed the pain.Still hoping by some act of God that I can see him,37 years is a long time to wait.

Same with me only that I didn't buy tickets. I thought there was a dream coming true and couldn't quite believe it. I did well not to believe it. Berlin had been the only chance for me to attend a concert - I'm very disappointed too.

Leonard goes to the O2 Arena in London. There seems to be another O2 in Berlin: http://www.o2world.de/ and one more in Prag: http://www.o2arena.cz
So...???

Someone who speaks German should take a look at this! They seem to be suggesting that instead of the 30 August cancelled Berlin show, he will (may???) play on 4 October in Berlin in the O2 arena. I had tickets and flights for 30 August and, amazingly, have to be in Berlin on 2 October anyway ... might this happen??? ... I know Jarkko says we must be patient and I can be ... I saw him in a most wonderful performance in Manchester!

Now even O2 arena in Berlin is advertising tickets for Leonard on 4 October - taking you to the ticketmaster web site (http://www.ticketmaster.de/artist/733217 ) ... a new dilemma --- book now and you get front row tickets ... but it may not happen and we end up losing money again!!! Any advice from anyone 'in the know'????

Just book it. If it doesn't happen, you'll get your money back.

I did!!! .. it 's just that last time with eventim.de for the 30 August non concert they kept the booking fee and quite high DHL costs for which they offered no alternatives!

I'm waiting for the list of confirmed fall concerts any day now. Like last time, the Germans were the first to start selling tickets. However, I have no reason to question the correctness of the Eventim & Ticketmaster information about Berlin & Hamburg. (Reserved tickets to Berlin myself!).

Ticketmaster is right now selling 3. row!
