Just booked for right at the back of the stalls at the Millenium Centre, looking forward to a fabulous night!
Confused though because I never pre-ordered a CD, I just joined the "Sheridan mailing list"?

I did the same thing, I signed up for the mailing list rather than the pre-order. Think it was just another option to get the pre-sale link.
I've just booked for Liverpool. Prices are pretty steep. I do hate pre-sales though, they're very selective with the seats they release. The best available were all side stalls, even with the first few rows blocked out for VIP tickets you wouldn't get centre stalls further back.

Well I had the pre sale code but I'm going to have to decline. At the RAH all the stalls are £93.50 which is beyond my budget. Can get tkts at £60.50 but that's right up in the gods whicH I won't do and £71.50 arena which is also a no no due to the arena having no rake.
Such a shame as was so looking forward to this but I just can't justify paying those prices.

Graham Norton just played a "world exclusive" of Sheridan covering the Bette Midler/ Karen Carpenter classic Superstar. Oh dear. Totally bland and soulless with awful production, and she mangles the lyrics destroying the rhyme scheme. Maybe she should stick to Cilla. I was listening, thinking "gawd this is awful", not realising until the end it was Sheridan. Then Sunday Elaine Paige played the La La Land thing, City of Dreams, which was absolutely lovely, not realising until the end it was Sheridan ..... Still not enough to make me want to spend ££'s on a ticket. I adored her in Funny Girl, but An Evening Of - not so sure. Enjoy those who've got tix. |

The front rows VIP tickets are £140! Eek!
I got myself a ticket in the first level up at Gateshead front row, fifty quid when the ten quid of fees are added.

Confused though because I never pre-ordered a CD, I just joined the "Sheridan mailing list"? I don't think they can legally say "you must buy...", even when you are told you have to order something if you look down the page there is always a link to get on the list without pre ordering. |

I paid £44 for the Circle at Nottingham. RAH is like £60 including fees for the cheapest, so I'm good with Nottingham cheapest!

Yes these "pre order an album for presale access" are all the craze these days aren't they. But as shady23 said, there is always a "no purchase necessary" option, so never feel forced into buying an album you don't want  |

To be fair though, if you want presale access and you're prepared to go and spend money to see Sheridan cover classics like 'And I Am Telling You....' and 'Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter' then chances are you'll probably want the album too.

Agreed with Ryan. I pre-ordered the album because I want it haha. And because I was one of the first 500 to order it, I get a photograph or something, I don't really know what it is but I get one.  |

True, the album is only ten pound and is out soon so not unreasonable. When the likes of Gary Barlow do a tour pre sale and ask you to buy a book he's not written yet, out October 2018, it gets a bit silly! |

Sheridan's version of And I Am Telling You is really beautiful. So vunerable, just a piano and some strings. You can hear the emotion in her voice. I'm actually tearing up, I didn't expect that!
Whole album now on Spotify now.

See I wasn't as impressed. I like that she's tried to do something different with the song, but for me it just didn't really work in this style. Different taste is a wonderful thing |

Some on here are gonna hate this album, I can feel it. But I am actually really surprised how much I am enjoying it. Her voice is beautiful on these songs, where she is stripped back, emotional, vunerable, but then on the upbeat ones, you can tell just how much she is enjoying herself when recording them. I've had her And I Am Telling You on repeat, there is something about her that just transfixes, even on recording. Its the reason she is so popular, she just has a charm and a lure that if you love, you really love. I can imagine these songs live, and it is making me so excited for her tour now! |

Now I think she’s a special talent as an actor but sorry her singing is not good. She almost gets away with it in the right show but her album is verging on an embarrassment. Plus she sounds terrible on the trailers for Sunday nights tv show. I mean, she’s brave for doing it, but anyone who would pay for this album and think she can actually sing must be tone deaf.
Get her to sing a duet with Amber Riley or someone and she’d Look like a fool from an early X factor audition.

Whole album now on Spotify now. Pah. Unless she does the shouting and hand pointing bit at the "and you, and you, and you, you're gonna love meeeeee-EEEEEEEEE- EEEEEEE-YEAAAAAAAAHHH" then I ain't interested Sheridan. |

So logged on to RAH website out of curiosity and in queue for about an hour. Stalls seat £65 plus booking fee of £3.85
Grabbed it quick.
Now what's going on here?
Pre sale which went via Ticketmaster had all stalls at £92.50 even with their fees that's a hell of a lot more than RAH. So by waiting 2 days and going direct via RAH have got a great seat at a perfectly acceptable price.
Happy man now.

Pre sale which went via Ticketmaster had all stalls at £92. Depends which section of the stalls. Ticketmaster is an agency, so had a small allocation of tickets in various blocks. The RAH had the whole (more or less) venue to sell at a wider range of prices. The point I'm trying to make is that on pre sale I could only get £92.50 stalls seats but by waiting 2 days have got affordable seats. I thought that pre sale meant that you got 1st pickings and the best deal. |
