And I did have tickets for different nights which I've given to other people on here so it could refer to any of those.
I am going tonight myself and really hope it's not cancelled...
Wednesday tickets so that would be valda and funthing. And everyone else who I gave my tickets too who I've got to now PM.
Have just quickly rebooked Valda and funthing tickets.

So for as far as we know Tuesday is still on?
I know there's plenty of other things going on tonight I could pick from but I am worried that if I aim for Friday instead that by Thursday we'll receive another cancellation notice and I miss out completely...

I would think the Tuesday is still on. My tickets were for Monday and Wednesday (and Monday's already gone...) so it can only refer to Wednesday....
I don't think they would cancel Friday's tickets.

Anyone else wonder if this is the same as with previous cancellations by the way? Where they say it's cancelled but in actual fact they just overbooked by a lot, so they try to scare some people away?
Edit: Thanks a_person. I just realised it was for Wednesday too as on that e-mail address I only had the one day booked.

Maybe they are cancelling as now have sold tickets?

Yes, I noticed, instead of four. Which is really annoying as I passed those tickets onto a member who needs it for four people now I'm going to have to PM her and tell her they're cancelled and she was so excited as well....

Oh yes i remember that it was for planet of apes ( I think).
But still went ahead. Maybe we should see if everyone got emails that has booked for Thursday.

Plus the time is really awkward, 5.30pm? Thankfully I get off at 4, but maybe people will have to rush from work and hope there are tickets left by the time they get there.

I also got the email, having booked them for Thursday. I was meant to also go tomorrow but am worried that those may be cancelled as well?
