It's not the first time. It sucks but there's nothing we can do about it really, we didn't even p*y for the tickets.

On a happier note (though not so happy for me as this is during work hours)

Come to "The Cast of Rock Of Ages @ hmv Oxford Circus" 16 September from 13:30 to 14:30.

The Cast of Rock Of Ages - including Shayne Ward and Justin Lee Collins - will be performing a selection of songs from the brand new rock musical in store @ hmv Oxford Circus, London on Friday 16th September at 1.30pm. Due to the whimsical nature of the entertainment industry, all events are subject to change without notice.

Not sure why this was the case as there were lots of odd seats here and there (some pairs, some singles) amongst the SFF allocation and there was actually an entire row (which I moved to) in the Grand Circle that was completely empty i.e. nobody was sitting on that row.

I predict loads of people will not bother turning up tonight/tomorrow for fear of being turned away and there will be empty seats. :rolleyes:

I'll get there at around 5.45 tonight (straight from work) so :cross:

Does anyone want me to let them know how it went? I don't have a smartphone to check in to the forum but I suppose I can txt someone :)
