Pink Martini tickets, Royal Albert Hall, London

Pink_Martini · January 14th, 2013, 03:39 AM

Hello ladies and gentlemen.

I'll make this as short and sweet as i can!

In December i attempted to buy Pink (the pop performer) tickets for my wife, after trawling through the website 'Seatwave' for a few hours i came across what i thought were ideal tickets for the female pop singer but what i had actually bought were for the jazz band Pink Martini. Oh yeah, this error cost me the best part of £245.00 for the privilege....

So, with my stupidity firmly alive and well i am offering these tickets to any of you Jazz fans for £100 for the pair. (I am not a ticket tout and have absolutley no intention of being)

Details;

Pink Martini

29/04/2013

Royal Albert Hall (London)

Quantity: 2 ticket(s) Stalls

Row: 1

Please PM me or contact me on 07568 508 300 for setails regarding this, i'll be happy to help in any way i can!

Best regards, Danny.

I never heard of a jazz band by this name. Do you know who's in the band? And this is a lot of money to pay to hear a jazz band, even one with well known names.

UK stores file this outfit under "Easy listening".

Pink Martini are a "sweet" music band -- I have one of their CDs and "Easy Listening" sums it up beautifully

Hate to say this, but you really got screwed on those tickets -- Other tickets are available at £40 each in the stalls (but no stalls seats left) Circle tickets are available

The genre was under 'Jazz' that's what brought me here.

Ticket touts are a joke, another of this countries many failures, I won't go into how much it pisses me off.

I certainly was screwed over. In honesty if I recoup face value ill be happy. Pissed off was an understatement.

Why not check their website?

I'm an idiot more often than not. I checked allmusic but didn't think to see if there was a website by the same name.

13 members in the band. 8 CDs shown on the website, and a reference to the Japan version of Barbara Streisand. Listening to Tuka Tuka, one of the videos on the site. This looks like the band that is a lot of fun to see live, not so much on a CD.

Not sure if you were able to get rid of those tickets yet, but Pink Martini are a fabulous and talented live band! They are our hometown heroes out here in Portland, OR and play often. I just saw them last summer and loved it. Good luck selling those tickets, but if you have to go, it will not suck!
