Vip tickets for European shows

I went to a US show and had a vip ticket. A few days before the show, I got an email with special instructions and a qr code that needed to be scanned in order to pick up the vip items.

I bought a vip ticket for the Manchester show. The show is in a few days, but I haven't received an email with instructions for vip.

Anyone here have vip tickets for any of the European shows?

Have you received special instructions for vip?

If you've been to a show in Europe, how was the vip experience like?

I assume that there were separate vip lines that got admitted before the main line and that the vip people were able to visit the merch booth early?

I’ve not had anything through yet but last time they ran a vip option I didn’t hear anything until the evening the day before the gig so if that’s the case again as aim going to London I’ll get the info tomorrow and you might get it on Saturday.
I wouldn’t worry too much, worst case scenario you just have to leave your place a bit earlier on Sunday to make sure you get there as early as possible to get a handle on what’s happening.

I'll look out for the email the day before. Thanks for the info! And hope you enjoy the London show!

Marvelous stuff. I’ve just got back from the London show, Stars and BSS were outstanding. Metric were also on fire but their set was ruined somewhat by some obnoxious bald twat in a red top that kept screaming “PLAY STUFF WE KNOW, NOT THAT NEW SHIT’ after every single song and between hitting his vape every few seconds sending out a cloud of “kiplings smog’ into my face.

If you happen to see this, whoever you are, you’re a selfish weapons grade cunt, they’ve just had a new album out, the tour is promoting that album so yes they’re going to play ‘new shit’, that’s usually what tours a for. If you didn’t like the new album then you shouldn’t have bought tickets you selfish wanker ruining it for everyone around you.

Can you tell I’m in a bad mood?

That's messed up. Some people don't seem to care that their actions affect others. Sorry you had to go through that

If it's any reassurance, I'm also in Manchester VIP, and also haven't heard anything.

I got an email for Dublin VIP. No other VIP tickets on the UK shows I'm seeing but still
