Tickets for German shows
Anyone looking for tickets to the German shows should consider using ticketmaster.de - Tickets are about 15 Euro cheaper than at eventim.de, and the company is just as trustworthy and reliable (sting.com used them for the fan club presale for the 2nd German leg of Symphonicity). Maybe they should be used for presales again, the piece of the pie that eventim.de consistently wants for themselves is just too big IMO.

Yes you can but be advised that the tickets for the Amsterdam show are general admission on the floor, so you would not be buying reserved seats on the floor in the presale.

Presales are only available to paid members. That is why you don't see any presales links.
