Anybody interested in seeing the Mercedes-Benz World at Brooklands, Weybridge, Surrey???
There is an announcement coming next Wednesday at 10 am UK time (and members will have
to react immediately, and then they can relax until July 11)

Sounds promising

Nooooooo ... that is the one day next week I cannot be near a computer! I am due to be on a plane on my way to Copenhagen ...

Time to sweet talk the children in to doing me a little (big) favour I think ...

Thank you Jarkko.
Will there be a presale?
Do we have to register with the ticket agency?

The only thing I am allowed to say now is that it would be best to be at the computer at 10 am on Wednesday

Is this an outdoor venue?

Yep.

Ok, thanks, just went to an earlier link now. Lets hope for good weather. Then again, it really doesn't matter. Still have a warm glow when I think of that wonderful Sunday in Dublin, in the rain.

Mabeanie what is this venue like I didn't even know it existed

Here is a link- if you download the events calender as a pdf file - it shows a picture of an outdoors concert.

Hi, this is my first post to this forum, have been looking at other posts for some time but have been a little bit apprehensive about posting as you all seem to have been on the list forever and I don't want to intrude. Have been a huge fan since the 60's but never went to see Leonard until last year when I managed to see him twice at the O2, Brighton and the Royal Albert Hall. Have got tickets for Liverpool and am hoping for Barcelona. I live in Reigate, Surrey and see that he will be playing just down the road from me at Weybridge on 11th July, however, I have a huge problem, I am flying to Greece on Wednesday at 8 am, so no way will I be able to be online at 10 am UK time, am totally gutted, can anyone help me out and get tix for me? Will reimburse you straight away!!!!! In hopeful anticipation, Jackie x

I sympathise totally Jackie as I too will be in the air at 10.00 am on Wednesday. My suggestion is that you rope in friends, family or work colleagues to get your tickets on your behalf. I will be relying on my 21 year old student son away at uni at the other end of the country to get something for me. Not perfect I know but it's the best available to me. I might also add some bribery & corruption to encourge him to make the effort to be online by 10.00 am.

There's plenty of time between now and Wednesday to get something organised. You can give them the cash up front and they can send you a text when tickets are "in the bag". After that you can relax, enjoy your holiday and, to paraphrase Jarkko, take it easy until July 11. I'm guessing it's a fan pre-sale on the 15th. If so, there's bound to be other chances to get tickets in the public sale, after markets (at cost, here on the forum or eg at http://www.scarletmist.com) or even shortly before the show, when additional seats often go on sale.

Good luck and enjoy your holiday.

I'm in Heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the link Foxwood. I thought it would be an inside concert and it is outside. I really don't like the look of it. Good job I am going to Liverpool.

This is a picture of the venue



(Fingers crossed this works!!)
