Anyone planning on going to this concert? We will be in Paris during that time and are trying to get tickets but don't feel as though there is enough time now to have them mailed and not having much luck trying to communicate w/ the Paris ticket office - any advice?

I'd suggest you buy through the online ticket service of FNAC (a major music/book/electronic store) and pick them up at one of their sites in Paris. They have them available, I checked, and have convenient locations all over the city. YOu have to select the option of pick-up when you purchase. I've done that before, it works great.

www.fnac.com

Christina - thanks for the fnac.com link -I'm non-french speaking (Spanish I do ok) so I am having problems navigating and figuring out how to specify that I want to pick up tickets.

Try Tickenet. They have an english version of their site. Heres the link: http://www.ticketnet.fr/shop/en/accueil.asp

I am fairly sure you can choose to pick up the tickets from them. Enjoy the concert!

I'm sorry, I thought they had an English-language section. Now that is odd because they have FNAC in Spain now, and a Spanish version www.fnac.es but it doesn't seem to sell tickets. It would be kind of hard to explain the whole thing because you'd have to register on the website and everything, also, to buy, so I'd try above idea.

www.omniticket.fr is another French online service that does have an English section (don't know about pickup), but I'd try above suggestion first.

MorganB - Thanks! Got the tickets....Christina - thanks for your input as well - my fault I don't speak/read French.

Glad that worked for you
