The Antlers were absolutely stunning at Union Chapel on Wednesday.   Will still never know why they never reached the same scale that a lot of the late 00s P4K indie darlings did.

I'm confused....(not unusual)...when are Q IDs invalidated? At some point, a Q ID needs to lose its ability to gain access to the actual See ticket purchase servers....I'm assuming that a "privileged" ID needs to be retired at some point in order to release a new ID, otherwise the number pf buyers hitting the See servers grows over time as "privileged" IDs are passed around and the total amount of privileged users continues to grow.   Is the suggestion that IDs are retired at purchase, therefore you get a bus load of friends in the Queue with Queue IDs and then when one gets to the actual See Servers (their Q ID is now "privileged"), they could hand you back their ID (before actually purchasing tickets) which would be valid for you to use to reach the actual purchase pages?

Yeah I'm aware of the back story, still disappointing though.   Definitely right, re the $$. I'd kill for them to properly tour here but I doubt that's happening now.

I would think in the case of queue ID sharing that there is no risk or trust involved. There's no need for the buyer to send card details; only for the follower to send the queue ID to the buyer. - Follower shares a queue ID for an event that they either already have tickets for or are not interest in. No financial risk other than time. - Requester gets queue ID from a follower. Either it's good and they get tickets or it's not and they move on.   Unless I'm misunderstanding how one would reconnect a browser with a previously acquired queue ID. Perhaps the queue ID is session locked with another cookie, but then why bother providing the option to reconnect.  

Unfortunately I read from a few people during the Sam Fender sale that they still had issues on payment, and of course ticketmaster have a queue system and people often have issues when buying (I've never had an issue, once I have a ticket selected).
