Crossing my fingers you'll get a reply soon. Though I guess Luke may be a bit swamped after most people having read their cancellation e-mails by now (I got in just before the rush I think)

Well I have tickets for tonight and have not received a cancellation (yet), so I'll still be going to try...

But then, they probably have no idea what's going on either because Wednesday is cancelled for sure and they don't know about this. And also, yesterday they said you can only pick up tickets after 7 which turned out to be wrong too.

Either way, I should've seen it yesterday :/

I think it's worth trying and then pleading ignorance.

I think that c_t and tilly are right - perhaps more tickets were sold so less tickets available.

If you're close by no harm in giving it a try.

I guess rainey, tilly, 5rannoch, bevvy and I made the right choice going yesterday!
