It's a co-headlining tour. Does that mean they take it in turns to end the show? Any idea when or if we'll learn the order that they play at each date?

thanks to Si for the heads-up on this, it appears my SSE mailing list posts have dropped the ball >:-/
looks like another Hydro trip, and another bypassing of my home town, sigh. will always travel for Coop though.

All shows are onsale via a Cult presale now. Nothing particularly great on sale but check The Cult facebook page for info.

Best SSE Hydro presale tickets start at Row W.

One of the most infuriating things of the modern age is having to trawl around the various ticket outlets to see who's offering what, all the while worrying that you might pass over the best deal while looking for something else.

For those that love to stand it looks like the Swansea gig has standing.

What happened to an Alice pre-sale?? Someone drop the ball there too?

Why a co-headliner? The Cult simply don’t have the following here.

As for the Cult and SSE presale - absolutely useless.

I was going to ask about the Alice pre-sale. Has the tour been announced by Alice yet? Maybe tomorrow with a pre-sale link?

Just a guess? Because promoters were more comfortable booking a co-headlining show. Since many people will not be attending concerts any time soon, I imagine the promoters believe that a co-headlining show with two big names is more likely to ensure more ticket sales than either act solo.

Hate buying tickets now, no idea if Alice may pop up a link with better ones and since i have no right to cancel if he does i either risk getting worse than whats on offer or go with it and risk missing better

As it is co-headline does that mean a reduced stage design and setlist for Alice? If so might take a bigger gamble and skip it in hope of another solo headlining tour

Ticket buying now is just a joke. Endless different pre-sales (venues/credit cards, utility supplies etc) and no clue where the good seats might be, if they are ever available at face value at all... With two bands offering VIPS etc it's just even worse.
No idea why The Cult have been able to launch their pre-sale before AC.com has even announced the shows though... but there isn't anything that great available through that anyway.

Generally it seems in recent years a true co-headliner means both bands get their full stage show and around 90 minutes on stage including encores. As AC's show isn't much beyond 90 minutes normally anyway there shouldn't be much cut, if anything.

Links take you to the tour list but nowhere for presale code and nothing available as I post right now.

Thanks Si.

I thought I was maybe being stupid in not spotting where to put the code in.

Click the VIP link - it takes you to the general pre-sale as well

Cheers Si, i took the plunge wi the ac.com VIP link

I really can't follow what seats ac.com are offering. They seem wildly random and, unless I'm completely misunderstanding it, none of them are for the central stalls?

I haven`t seen anything particularly close to the stage, and mostly they seem to be at the outside edges of the front blocks or a long way back (ie London). This isn't unusual nowadays with the VIP packages, and there's two sets of VIPs for this tour.
It's pretty much what I expected after the last couple of tours.

i swore after aberdeen i was getting 4 1st row meet and greets for the family, no taking my chances on this tour though as would be well over 2K. My time will come wether it is meet and greet or somewhere else, but would rather covid be behind us on a MnG

seems my second post here is gone :-/

i've tried a couple of times, keep getting block 1 which is a bit off to the side i think. row N was the closest try. would love another m&g but it's over £500 now, so i think i'll pass.

My mate just asked...What do you need for that, "proof of vaccine or lateral flow test or both"....something to think about that will likely be needed as it never even crossed my mind when booking, although I have both jabs anyway
