Tickets arrived for both summer and winter shows.. Not details on rest of the package but have been advised they are being sent seperately.

Hmm you got a different story to me then... Like you I got both my tickets by the time I got home (earlier post when I said I chased them, I was at work), nothing about the rest of the package. Spent 40 mins on hold to ticketmaster to be told "you'll get it when you get to the venue". This doesn't ring true to me, as I have nothing to show I have bought the VIP package, doesn't even mention it on the tickets or anything, so I am concerned - although the girl I spoke to did assure me "it'll be fine"...

I got my tickets Today, thing is if we have to wait till we get to the venue to get the extras how do we know what time to be at the venue ?
We are supposed to have early entry for the Summer show.
Like you say the tickets don't even mention VIP.

Legendary gothic-rock heroes Fields Of The Nephilim today reveal that their forthcoming Summer Solstice show in London will feature a very rare live performance of songs from their hugely acclaimed masterpiece 'Elizium'.

Released in 1990, it saw the band’s sonic template expand into some of the most atmospheric material of their career. Recorded and produced by Pink Floyd engineer Andy Jackson, it was a celebration of the light and features rarely performed songs of occult empowerment.

With the longest day of the year upon us, invoking the transcendent nature of Midsummer, the time has come for Fields Of The Nephilim to revisit their most iconic album for the first time since its release – a moment that many fans have yearned for but lead singer Carl McCoy prophesised would only happen when the time was right. He has intends to bring the most ethereal, dreamlike set the band has performed in decades.

With original member Tony Pettit returned to the fold and new material from the Nephilim yet to be revealed, this album represents the last time that the original line-up recorded together and will now provide the entrance for what is to come.

This set has been themed purposely to reflect the Summer Solstice and will offer an entirely different feel to the Winter Solstice show on Dec 21st at O2 Shepherds Bush Empire.

These concerts follow the release this spring of ‘Prophecy’, the first single from Fields of the Nephilim for more than a decade. ‘Prophecy’ is available on iTunes and can be heard in full HERE.

Tickets available from ticketweb.co.uk. £30.00 adv + booking fee. Limited VIP packages available.

Elizium requires the original line-up to be played decently.

We already have Tony back on bass.
:idea: Peter Yates has made his come back live this year at WGT, so.... :idea:
and how are Nod and Paul Wright going? Anybody knows?

:lol: Oh yes probably. That would be cool if he could just live it for a while, the time to play with the rest of the band for the summer solstice. :D

Gah sorry no more news. The ticket company are adamant that we get the stuff at the venue, but totally cannot answer my question about how do we prove it, and how do the pre-show drinks work... I guess we just gotta hope that something turns up in the post like Deeg has been told

Been informed by a chum that what will turn up seperately is an email with all the details, should be sent out about a week before hand.

Folks have had to re register as old thingies did not thingy for me but as for Monday thanks Deeg for the updates

With your tickets you should have had a 'this is not a ticket' stub and this has a rip off strip on that rip off strip there is VIP printed on it. I plan to take this as well even though they say they have names on the door

4.30pm Bull & Gate
6:00pm Champagne of the Nephilim
As Batraal said to me these feathers are a bastard nightmare, they come off everywhere. Bloody women..........
