That's really generous - but...

Huh? not even to passport holders? Not even to those people from outside
the UK who can't make it to that gig, but who came from overseas to
follow them on as many dates of the current tour as they could?

I've just ordered a ticket 'cos of this announcement, can't miss a one-
off not available elsewhere CD of exclusive tracks by Brock, Blake et
al. Unfortunately I won't be able to get to the gig, as from 9pm that
night I'll be travelling back from Ireland.

If I ask nicely, would they go onstage late? About 12 hours late? Or
play loud enough to be heard on the Rosslare to Fishguard ferry?

Thought not. Bugger.
