Before anyone gets excited, this is only for people who already have festival tickets.

Has anyone had a code come through for this yet?

Hello everyone, I'm new here! I have not received a code yet.....beginning to panic a bit. I couldn't even see it listed at Ticketmaster?

What a terrible mess. Looks like the majority didn't get a code. If Kasabian had any common sense they would add an extra gig or something. It's one thing to not get tickets because it sells out quickly, that sucks but it happens, but people didn't even get a chance to try.

I don't know anyone who got a code, called Ticketmaster who just apologised and said it's sold out and I should complain to Reading and Leeds. Kasabian HQ say it was run through the promoter and the don't know what exactly happened; and Reading and Leeds are now saying we should have been subscribed to the newsletter to get a code.
It's so stressful and upsetting. I wouldn't mind so much not getting tickets if they were normal tickets, going on sale on time and it was just high demand, but this is such a horrible mess.

After we tweeted about the situation earlier R&L asked us to follow them so they could message us. 8 hours later, no message. Maybe they sent it with the same carrier pigeon that was supposed to deliver the codes.

That's awful that people didn't get codes who had bought R&L tickets. I got two emails, both containing the same code, one Sun night and one Mon morning. I think I may have subscribed to R&L newsletter but not sure. Luckily I managed to get a ticket for St Laurence's Church gig but only after several attempts to enter the code. Feel very lucky after hearing that some people didn't get codes.

So my complaints to Reading and Leeds remained unanswered but a friend got a code from them to use yesterday, which was kindly given to me and worked miraculously, so I'm seeing them tomorrow after all! Still gutted for all the people that couldn't get tickets, and for such short notice, so very few people could make plans.
Very excited as well, and very curious what the setlist will be like. Hoping for some new songs, acoustic Ill Ray anyone?

Lovely little set yesterday, was amazing to hear Comeback Kid and PYLOI acoustic in a church. Tom was all 'I swear I'm not going to swear in the house of god' and Serge was saying 'we're going to take confessions afterwards in the basement'. Shame Chris and Ian weren't with them and there were a few moments you could hear they're lacking a rhythm section, but it was very special anyway.
Tom's voice was so incredible and we were chatting to Tim before the gig and he was saying the same, that Tom is just getting better and better. We ended up talking about which songs they should play this tour and he was asking what would we suggest and I'm afraid we just bombarded poor Timmy with demands, from Beneficial Herbs to Acid Turkish Bath, but he was lovely as always and patiently listened to all that.

Last night was outstanding, the sound was beautiful. Loved the way Tom called us the 'choir'.
