Easy. The likelihood that 90% of people who are buying tickets also own one of their albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These dates are correct so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonanza Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 what a dire line up this year. Are BST targeting people - especially mums and daughters - who don't much like music but like the idea of going to a 'festival'? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balti-pie Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 I was looking at volunteering at this, cos at the end of your shift you can head into the golden circle nonsense and get a decent view for essentially a free gig. But the only one i'd even think about seeing would be Stevie Nicks, its significantly slim pickings otherwise (Stevie Wonder apart obvs, who i've already seen a couple of times) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantkatestacks Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 Does anyone have any knowledge about presales v general in terms of ticket release? I have some Stray Kids presale general entry but I really want gold circle. Last year same thing with Bruce and so when I eventually got some gold circle I resold my general. But Bruce is easy to resell. Stray Kids will be tough I imagine. Do they have vastly more gold circle during general sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's just off the back of a successful UK arena tour last year, I'd be surprised if this didn't sell well which is the ultimate aim of any music business.

Plus large section of the general public who only do live music one or twice a year, but spend big when they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to read between the lines on the wording (and so maybe reading too much in to it), I think the implication here is that the act being announced on Friday next week will be the one act we don't yet know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlierc Posted February 9 Report Share Posted February 9 8 hours ago, jr1312 said: The final act being announced next Friday apparently If that list is right and Kings of Leon are doing this, rumour on their fan Reddit is that they're releasing a new single in 2 or 3 weeks time. So it could well be any announcement of them doing this and any other shows is being held back until then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
