Olympic Park/Stadium shows 2013

Wireless always used to discount. Re capacity was just quoting something spotted on here the other day

[thewayiam]

Three things that make me think this isn't Wireless. Firstly, if you look up the domain info for the Example London 2013 site, it is registered to the promoters of SW4. Next, flyers were given out at Earls Court for it, just like the SW4 organisers did at Brixton Academy for a skrillex gig last year. Finally, I was trawling wall posts on example's Facebook page and he said this London show was 18+, which wireless isn't but SW4 is.

Nice mate. SW4 have always had a header like that since they went 2 day in 2010. Also to ask, can you take drink in the campsite at SW4?

[thewayiam]

sw 4 isn't camping and you can't bring drinks with you, completely filled with drugs though

Standard reckon Wireless are announcing Jay-Z and Justin together, tomorrow, as their third day. Would make sense as they are doing joint shows on their tour, but wouldn't fit with "dance".

That'd be a gigantic kick in the teeth to everybody who bought weekend tickets, or even day tickets to one when the other was sold out. I'd be pretty fucked off with that.

Confirmed for 14 July as jt and jay z debuting their legends of the summer tour with tribe called quest and nas

[Jime1977]

That really is a kick in the teeth for people who already have tickets for one or both of the other dates...

why? Did someone force them to buy those tickets or something?

Something was presented to them, and they felt that was good enough for them to part with their money - which is as good as it gets of being a satisfactory offer.

When you buy a bottle of wine in Tesco's the only offer is the offer on offer. If next week it's half the price that doesn't mean that the previous purchase was a rip off.

[atomised]

Its a different show and they were offered 2 day tickets, not weekend tickets. I think adding a third day is something wireless have done in the past.

That's true, but I can still see some people being unhappy. If I'd paid £150 to see the two of them and was then told that I could have paid £75 instead I'd be unimpressed. Especially as Wireless more than likely had this lined up all along. Yes there's a lot of other acts on, but some people would mainly be interested in the headliners.

then I guess you need to start a campaign to stop all special offers, group discounts, and stop anything which sees a price reduction or a quality increase. And capitalism, of course.

Or might it be that you like - prefer - to pay less than others do, but you hate it if others pay less than you? In which case the issue is your double standards, and not the fact of varying prices & offers.

[the wonderwhy]

You're not going to get a full Jay Z set or a full JT set though. You're effectively going to get half and half.

I don't see a problem.

[mrtourette]

So they're putting on a third day and headlining will be the two headliners from the previous days on stage at the same time? Sounds kinda shitty.

[LondonTom]

Live Nation are full of imagination this year

That is really shitty and I can see why people might be pissed (I know its not a full set from each but if you wanted to see both you'd have probs gone for the sunday ), saying all that ..I am slightly tempted for the Sunday as about half a set each is about what I'd want from the pair and that's who I guess this show is aimed at.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

That's made my day, I can see why people with tickets are pissed off but I'm all over this. J.T, Jay-Z, Nas & A$AP Rocky for £75? Yes please. Just wish Frank Ocean was on that day too.

[Andy0808 v3.0]

I got tickets... Didn't bother with the friday or saturday i've seen Jay Z before and i dont think i could watch a whole Timberlake set so i think it's class, and i'm hoping all the idiots it would normally attract got tickets for the previous days haha

[Bullet Tin]

Hmmm.
