Had an email back. It's free, aside from £5 to cover postage etc. Not too much to loser for the Rats don't play in the end.

Did you ask for 20 tickets?  That should cover everyone on the forum.

I see it is on RAM 2016 bookings, so I guess it is genuine.

 It did actually cross my mind, but I'd only have the bother of posting them to everyone. . .

do you have a link to this RAm thing?

Fair enough.   Worth noting there is a £30 fee if you arrive after 3pm on Saturday.  Highly unlikely I will go as Mrs. ArrGee wouldn't be pleased about spending our wedding anniversary somewhere in  in a field in Nottinghampshire (sic).

I did note on the 2016 bookings...

 

Friday 11th March    'That's Entertainment Acoustic Tour'  Under the Bridge, London  -  FROM THE JAM

 

I would have got a ticket, however The Stranglers are playing Brixton that night.

I don't have a birthday every year.

Meanwhile some background on the gig.   Basically if you get the free ticket, you camp!  Otherwise pay £25 to see Rats on the day or £75 for the full stalker experience.

 Do you just have a birthday every other year then??  Now there's an idea - I could make out I was only 24 and a half if I did that!  Neat idea!  Going to borrow it ... Thanks!

No, every four in the main, though if there are medical advances that see me to the start of the next century, I'd be 33 for eight years.

If anyone is waiting for tickets see exchange below....

2015- Just to confirm safe receipt of your £5.00 postage payment. Your ticket is now secure and will be posted out with your wristband and poster in December/January.

          We will keep you updated and let you know when the package has been sent. Regards, David & Gair

Yesterday - Just thought I'd check on ticket despatch status as I'm still to receive anything. Can you confirm when to expect please?

Today - Apologies for the delay.  Tickets have now been printed and we will be posting out very shortly.  Just working on the logistics right now.

I haven't, but not overly surprised. Mail above only 2 weeks ago.

Got to admit I'm not 100% convinced about this one. Struggling to see how it'll finance itself, but we'll see. As mentioned somewhere else, what's a fiver?

 Why so cheap? . 

 

It it does all seem rather unprofessional and strange. We will just have to wait and see.

The free ticket offer expires on Sunday at Midnight. Charges apply after that. I think £40 for the w/e and £20 day tickets.

I have not received mine yet. A bit worrying as I transferred £50 to cover 2 tickets and camping. No response to a chasing e mail either. Does seem like a bit of a strange set up....

 Think I heard that festival promoters are in dispute with local farmer over camping field. Think they may be compromising and letting him leave his prize bull in there after all Might explain the delay??

Good luck!
