Tried to pick up some tickets at HMV but they'd run out. Anyone know where I might still be able to get some?

Saturday & Sunday September 2/3
Sheffield Live & Unsigned Festival on Devonshire Green - powered by The Plug
This public showcase for the city’s best unsigned bands and acts will be staged over the first weekend in September. There is a worldwide focus on Sheffield right now, due in part to the phenomenal success of the Arctic Monkeys but backed up by a deep pool of musical talent. No less than five more Sheffield based acts have been signed up to major labels in the last five months.
The event is being promoted by The Plug and Green City Action, a company with a long and successful track record of producing safe outside events.
There will also be involvement from key partners in the region’s music scene such as Yellow Arch Studios, Red Tape Studios, Thee SPC record label, Sandman and Exposed Magazine and many more.
This project is the beginning of a five-year plan to host a major event that not only showcases local talent but attracts visitors and acts of national and international repute to Sheffield.
The event will be held on Devonshire Green over the first weekend in September and it will be free to attend with tickets issued through the Sheffield Star and several venues across the city. The event will accommodate up to 4,999 people at any one time and will be securely fenced to control entry and to contain the alcohol being sold through the licensed bar on site.
The event will run from 1pm each day until 9.30pm each day with with the bar and additional snack and refreshment stalls open from 1pm to 9pm on each day. The main stage will be an open-air installation for the bands and the bar tent will also feature DJ performances through out the weekend.
Two road closure orders will be applied for in order to facilitate the smooth running of the event. The other installation on site is a children’s entertainment area, which will feature rides, art workshops and sporting activities.

Tickets are in quite short supply now but we do still have some in our Plug Box Office on Rockingham Gate.
We're going to keep some tickets back to give out on the day.

Never realised it was a ticketed event, on the website it was advertised as free entry.
I was expecting to pop overon Sunday to catch Ninio & Monkey Swallows The Universe.
Have I blown it then ?

I believe you will be able to get hold of the limited edition Lucky Strike Tins as well on the bar, if you are into that kind of thing.

JODY WILDGOOSE
Bare Knuckle Soul have been forced to cancel their appearance at
Sheffield Live Unsigned but we are delighted to announce Jody
Wildgoose will be headlining on Saturday evening at 8.30pm in their
place.
His brilliant album Afterlife, which came out on Sketchbook Recordings
earlier this year, has been one of the hidden gems of 2006, a truly
magical record that merges the technicolour textures of the Beach Boys
with modern day mavericks such as Beck and the Super Furry Animals.
Joining Jody on stage will be Bryan Day (guitar/lap steel/vocals),
Danny Lowe (bass/vocals) and Si Stafford (drums)
