    There was a range of different prices, I paid £70 for each of mine, plus a £7 booking fee bringing them to £77 each (bought two, one for me, one for my friend who's coming with me and driving, lol, I'm about 8 hours away from Edinburgh!), then there was a delivery fee of £3.25. It's come to almost £160 in total. The cheapest tickets were priced at £45 plus a booking fee making them just a little higher, but I didn't like the seat it picked out for me so I went for the next level up and got a seat much nearer to the stage, lol.

    I'm just hoping no more money gets taken from my account for ICON, it's really worrying me now; I only paid for it to get my tickets early to ensure I got them, lol.

    I paid for ICON too, am sure it's just a one off payment. Where abouts are you sitting?

    The Icon Live Pass is only available once per week. You only pay again if you want to get more presale for another weeks worth of presale. Not applicable for us in the UK unless you plan on going over to the States where some of their tickets won't be released until later. No need to worry.

    Did you guys get the pass from madonna.com? I saw on ticketmaster an option to buy the tickets and buy the icon pass on there

    EDIT: May I add that the price I paid was for reserved seating at Murrayfield, as I was unwilling to stand (I'm only 5'4 and wouldn't have seen a thing!) and I didn't want to pay for Hyde Park as I didn't want to stand in a muddy field a mile away from the stage, lol.

    Were the Hyde Park tickets the same price?

    Thanks for the confirmation guys, put my mind at ease now. :) One thing bugging me, is that when I signed up, it said I would get to choose a free gift? Does that I apply to UK users or just US? Because of the gifts was a $5 voucher. Oh, and I may have made an error in not clicking pay with pounds, and instead paid with US Dollars. Will that make much difference? (Whoops!) I was going a bit too fast to be honest, just wanted to get my tickets lol.

    EDIT: I didn't look at the pricing for HP I'm afraid. All I know is that DS stated HP was something like £70-£125 whereas pricing for MFS began at £45. I had no interested in going to HP so I didn't look, sorry.

    W12, which I'm assuming means WEST SECTION 12. It's kinda near the corner. Hopefully will be a good view; should at least be able to see what's going on, to an extent, lol.

    Thanks. A bit too much for me to pay to stand in a public place! I would have thought she would have charged £40.00for HP!

    It'll be fab. Last time I saw her I was sat on the top tier in Manchester and I stupidly forgot to take my glasses....couldn't see a thing hahaha! Still had an amazing night though.

    That'd be fine, I'm charging £14 for a bazarama live pass to allow presale for the bathroom, then floor space starts at £66+booking fee, beds from £125+booking fee, then there's breakfast, key cutting fee and hmmm...now how else can I recoup my ticket costs ;)

    Yes but you do need to offer a FREE tea bag per person. After that it's £3.95 per cup of tea. £4.80 for a bottle of water and £5.55 for a pint of lager.

    I think the Hyde Park gig will have a more music festival feel and will coincide with one of the pre Olympics events in London

    Would a stadium be the best place to see her?

    Nooooo an arena is the best by far, a stadium in a field with 80,000 others standing in fron of you guarantees a crap view

    But a stadium SEAT isn't so bad, surely? Hoping so anyway, after the amount I've just spent, lol.

    Although, you have highlighted the exact reason that I ignored Hyde Park, lol.

    Surely a stadium with the tiered seating would give you a better view.

    I've seen her in Slane Castle and it was hard to see her.

    I've seen her at Wembley and Cardiff, in the nosebleed seats on top tier each time and she looked the size of a full stop
