Is it just me, or are ticket prices a lot higher than the last couple of MK tours?  £46 for a ticket at the Albert Hall... I'm sure it was closer to £30 last time.  Having a booking fee of £4 AND a transaction fee of £2 seems a little unnecessary.  Doesn't MK have enough money already?

I'm also wondering how the seats are allocated -- when you purchase you have no idea where you'll be sitting.  Is it "first come gets the best seats", or just random?  At least with the ticket agencies you get to see exactly where you'll be sitting before you buy.

I have been trying to get tickets for Mark show in Amsterdam, on 30th March and I can´t get them, because of a problem when I click on the Visa logo. Is it my pc or is the same for everybody? I am Spanish, but I would love to see Mark´s show in Amsterdan in March. Thank you.

No problems for ordering Knopfler Tickets in Amsterdam

Joep said:

Ordering for the Royal Albert Hall the seat indications are just too general. I want to know for which seats I will be buying tickets, also to be able to pass them on if I don't want them. Any other way to arrange this ??

Marchena said:

I can´t get tickets for Amsterdam at all. I´m trying for a week and it´s impossible for me. Is there another way to get them? Thanks.

Pretty disappointed by the fact that I cannot see the exact seats that I am purchasing. What if I get crappy places?

However, still looking forward to the show in Zurich! :-)

I have had problems with the last part of booking online for the NEC in the UK, managed at last but took 30 minutes. I agree about not knowing where seats are, will not be very happy if seats are no good.

HAVE JUST ORDERED MY TICKETS FOR lONDON. THIS WILL BE MY 7TH TIME SEEING HIM, FIRSTLY WITH DIRE STRAITS, THE NOTTING HILLBILLIES AND AS A SOLO ARTISTE. I AM SO EXCITED. GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL WHO WANT TICKETS. ALI.X

alisonbeddoes said:

just for the record, the last part of booking was delayed and it took forever to complete booking, I guess it's where the site is busy. I agree, it's not good not knowing what exact seats you have, it is done on a first come first served basis, I have just got confirmation of this, they let you know 3-4 weeks after purchase. At the end of the day I am just happy I have got my tickets.

Un très grand merci, Mark, pour tes fans français, qui n'auront même pas le loisir de te voir !

Well, I have to say the ordering system completely seized up.  There were long delays to load anything, then it loaded, then I added tickets to cart... or did I... cart not showing up... ended up having too many tickets in my cart but trying to buy them anyway... then the system was so slow to respond to anything that the 10 minute limit had timed out, and it was back to square one.

It took 40 minutes in the end to get my order placed for RAH tickets on 25 May... and I guess that means 40 minutes worth of people ordering better tickets than me, despite me being ready with my money at 2pm prompt.

Very frustrating.  I only hope that the people who got their orders in ahead of me were genuine MK fans and not ebay ticket touts...

I have to agree it was a bit of a hassle. I was ready to order at dead on 2.00 and like you, I couldn't get into check out at first and ended up with 4 tickets initially instead of 2. I am just so glad I eventually got through. Like I said previously they must all be quite good seats, I checked on the seating plan at the RAH. I have seen Mark there before and it's a good view from the ones they have listed.

I just booked tickets for both Belfast and Dublin and completed both within around a minute so very happy! Only problem is not knowing where the seats I purchased exactly are...I assume that if its first come first serve the earlier you get in the better your seat - working on that logic my seats should be excellent!!

Thanks for coming to Finland :) Preorder worked fine for me this morning, didn't take any longer than a minute. Now let's just wait for the next spring ;)

Of course it would be nice to see exact seats while ordering tickets, but i'm happy with even being able to get seats near stage (preordering) because our local ticket service starts selling tickets for this concert as late as next monday :P Well, at least there's one more thing to tense - which seats will you get?

ande2008 said:

Yes, thanks for arranging this great presale. The tickets are promised from great sections, (the first 10 rows), where it's usually impossible to get tickets. Last time I saw Knopfler in Finland I was much further down the back, where the sound usually gets muddy.
Thanks!

kerrill said:

I tried to buy tickets for the MEN at 1.00pm and was still trying at 1.40pm, having at one point 6 tickets in my trolley when I only wanted 3. In the end decided that as probably all the Block B tickets had gone by then I would take my chances with the general public!! It would have been nice to have seen the seats you were booking, but I guess this web site does not get access to that information.
