Greeeaaaaaaaattt! This is saving my day and all the next weeks, too :-)!

roxgirl_germany said on March 10, 2004 14:43:

@taxford: Last year, the p&p for sending the tickets abroad was 150SEK (approx. 15Euros) by registered mail (not in a golden envelope, however *g*).

pelu said on March 10, 2004 14:52:

The tickets to Halmstad is not avialable on the net!??

roxgirl_germany said on March 10, 2004 14:54:

Ticnet didn’t learn from last year’s chaos and still doesn’t allow people from abroad to order via internet and/or by credit card. So the Swedish phone lines will be collapsing on Friday when everybody calls to get their tickets... ;)

jicko said on March 10, 2004 16:01:

Jippeeeeee!!!!!

Jud (moderator) said on March 10, 2004 16:30:

well I guess it’s not worth for Ticnet to implement an international system because there’s not a lot of people from abroad buying tickets there.. except when there are Per/Marie/GT concerts... compared to the many tix they sell for sport events and other tours.. that’s a little part :D

Anyway, cool pictures!! Anders lovely as always :)

wendy said on March 10, 2004 16:41:

What a gang,hehe :p
No,really,they say men get sexier when they get older,well,this is the perfect example... Great Pic :p

Starrox said on March 10, 2004 17:31:

@Judith: Actually, you can buy tickets at Ticnet from abroad, just not for the GT tour (or the Mazarin tour with the exception of Sundsvall)! They even write in their FAQ that paying by credit card is the only option to people outside Sweden...

Remco said on March 10, 2004 17:38:

This is what I call Short-term-notice. Tickets on sale next friday! That’s QUICK!

Jud (moderator) said on March 10, 2004 17:48:

@starrox: yeah but as far as I know, you have to phone - you can’t order them online? Anyway, you/we will find a way :D

I already bought tickets from BiljettDirekt (aka ticnet) in 99 without problems :D

ANother option would be for one of you (roxetteforum people) to go to Sweden (car?) and pick like 50 tickets out :P

xarrrr said on March 10, 2004 18:18:

i’m so excited! *jumps around!!!*

Starrox said on March 10, 2004 18:21:

@Judith: Oops, I somehow managed to delete an important word in my comment - it should have been “you can buy tickets ONLINE...” *hidesway*
(That’s why I mentioned Sundsvall, it did work for that concert last year!)

Vixzter said on March 10, 2004 18:24:

Need someone to get me 2 tickets for Malmo ...... possibly ....... and possibly Jonköping ;)

Jud (moderator) said on March 10, 2004 18:39:

@starrox: ok :)

I haven’t bought tix from them since Marie and then I did the same as in 99, sent a money order or something to their “postal account”.

Michaela said on March 10, 2004 19:07:

I want to come to the concert so bad!! This is an incredibly cheap price!! In the USA, it is quite regular to pay $100- $200 for a good concert. Gyllene Tider is $44. WOW!! I flew to Germany for the last Rox concert - well worth it too!

Would anyone like to host an American female - I’m 28 yrs. and an avid GT, ROX, PG, MF fan! You can email me privately at [email protected] (I’ll pay for your ticket too)

Cheers for SWEDEN! Great News!

Rich-UK said on March 10, 2004 21:12:

@daniel_alv

Best wishes, Rich

harriej said on March 10, 2004 21:58:

Huray!!
Sweden, here we come!
I wish it was already so far.

tevensso (moderator) said on March 10, 2004 22:19:

Being from Sweden I don’t have that problem, but yes, as far as I understand the FAQ, you can get tix via your credit card. I believe they add some extra for shipping though.

Rich-UK said on March 10, 2004 22:24:

I just registered with Ticnet and it seems that you can book with your credit card.
But it says that tickets cannot be shipped abroad so you must collect the tickets at the venue.

Starrox said on March 10, 2004 22:29:

@tevensso: Well, you usually can buy tickets online from abroad, but it seems like the GT tour is an exception! At least that’s what someone from Ticnet wrote (Thanks Rainqueen!)...

“Hello!
You must order tickets by phone, you can?t order online and pay by credit-card

Best Regards

Eloy said on March 11, 2004 01:30:

the greatest news that we ever got!!!! :D GT25 is the best. Sundsvall and a last concert in Skelleftea? I think it´s terribly cool touring besides on the sweden´s north!

m-cvk said on March 11, 2004 08:37:

Cooooooool! It will take a long long time before the concerts will start. I’m sure it’s worth the waiting!
BTW, do they all wear the same kind of shoes on the picture?? Funny!

ally77 said on March 11, 2004 09:01:

Can anyone pick me up a ticket for Gothenburg on the 7th August.... I will cover there expenses such as mailing ticket to me registered post! Paypal would be best to pay for this! anyone!!! email me if you can help.... Thanx in advance!

ally77 said on March 11, 2004 09:31:

The best way for people outside Sweden to book tickets... is to pay with credit card by phone, you get a booking reference which you keep and collect your tickets when you arrive quoting the reference and showing the credit card you paid with. These agents are all over Sweden most tobbacco shops [ATG] etc.. you look for a sign with a blue horse... (I think it’s a horse!). The only down side to this is you don’t officially hold the ticket until you get to Sweden so most people like to get someone else to get the ticket and ship it to them!

Like me with the Mazarin tour last summer.. I was kinda crazy till I had my ticket in my hand.... dumped my bags at the hotel and asked the staff where the nearest agent was... it was around the corner from the hotel and I had my ticket in my hand 10 mins later.... and all was fine!

**UPDATE** Just had email from TICNET, ticket for people from outside Sweden can be bought over the phone, paid for with credit card/debit card and they will mail the tickets at a cost of 200 SEK!

daniel_alv said on March 11, 2004 10:24:

i meant the 15th july... i mean there is a whole in the schedule for 3 days after h-stad....

Ally87 said on March 11, 2004 20:25:

they wouldn’t take credit card details last year, i had to transfer all the money through the bank...

ally77 said on March 11, 2004 20:41:

AS ABOVE... outside well to the UK...
call the number
order tickets
pay with credit card
pay extra 200 sek for postal delivery

Now it ain’t that hard!

tevensso (moderator) said on March 11, 2004 21:28:

Fredag kl 9.00 släpps biljetterna till Gyllene Tider - GT25. Vi räknar med hög belastning av www.ticnet.se under biljettsläppet. Vi kommer då inte kunna serva alla besökare. För att alla skall ha samma chans att boka biljetter loggas alla kunder ut kl 8.45. Detta innebär att det inte är någon fördel att logga in sig i förväg.

This means, in short, that TicNet will bounce all logged on users at 8:45, to give everyone a fair chance to get tickets.

ally77 said on March 11, 2004 22:31:

Nice one Ted! I have no intention of trying tomorrow to get my ticket.. I only want one so will leave it till next week! I am in no hurry... I either get one or I don’t! although I am determined to get one! ;)

punxnotdead said on March 12, 2004 04:17:

Great news... I got my flight ticket yesterday for August 1 to Arlanda....hehehe!!! This gonna be the greatest summer of my life! Cheers!

Jud (moderator) said on March 12, 2004 08:01:

go buy buy buy!!! ;)

Have fun, buy a lot of tickets and good luck with the (taken) lines :P

Starrox said on March 12, 2004 08:34:

The concert in Halmstad seems to be sold out already - not bad, it only took about 30 minutes! I wish I had been able to get through and order tickets before this, tough... :-(

japeke said on March 12, 2004 08:50:

colinvdbel can’t reach ticnet by phone.... someone else got those problems? Is halmstad REALLY sold out already??????

Remco said on March 12, 2004 09:00:

@japeke: can’t get through either. Not by telephone nor by internet. When I was at the point of selecting my ticket i was kicked out of the system. Keep on trying, Holland needs to be there!

Remco

Starrox said on March 12, 2004 09:03:

I can’t get through, either! I think I’m gonna go mad if I have to hear this annoying tone much longer, I’ve been trying to reach Ticnet for an hour now...

Mari said on March 12, 2004 09:40:

Yesss! I get through and bought tickets!!! Just be patient...

Mari said on March 12, 2004 10:34:

I got through by phone.

m-cvk said on March 12, 2004 11:04:

For all people outside of Sweden:
I could access www.ticnet.se but for foreigners (like me) it’s impossible to book through internet, just by phone!

oshtay said on March 12, 2004 11:06:

OK enough is enough. After 3 hours - still not through on the phone. Looks like the summer trip to Stockholm is off after all :((((((

Remco said on March 12, 2004 12:22:

For the people outside Sweden (m-cvk?): could you pay by credit card or is it the same hassle as last year?

Mari said on March 12, 2004 12:32:

I’m outside of Sweden. Same thing as last year. Swift-code etc.
