NorthernSoul52 Posted 22 hours ago Report Share Posted 22 hours ago Bit of a surprise, isn't it. Not that I've actually looked at the sales situation yet. For all we know, they might not be shifting like hot cakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which may be a mistake if tickets ACTAULLY become available to me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid $320 Canadian which is around 180 pounds for floors, which is pretty steep considering the support band (Cage the Elephant) are pish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, can appreciate that. However over here we have dynamic pricing, it's just under another name. The Oasis general sale is today. Tickets will sell out in seconds, but a few minutes after tickets are all sold out, they will reappear on ticketmaster under "verified reseller" at an inflated price. The "verified resellers" are ticketmaster themselves. The full amount of tickets are never all made available to the public. Ticketmaster are the buyers and the scalpers/touts. Why only make $330 from a ticket when ticketmaster can make you $500+ per ticket. Big artists are just as much to blame as Ticketmaster/Live Nation.

NorthernSoul52 Posted 19 hours ago Report Share Posted 19 hours ago Yeah, the sooner the DOJ nails those f***ers into the stratosphere, the better. (TM, not Oasis.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprefan Posted 17 hours ago Report Share Posted 17 hours ago Not big here huh. Its not just american fans. Its everyone else who thought this market would be easy to get tickets to the gigs. I expect everywhere to be gone today. Toronto has single tickets. Chicago prob for sure. Saturday los angeles was gone already. btw, they did their own way of dynamic by just having a third of the venue be vip. $700 standing tickets with zero benefits is just a middle finger to the customer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OakmountOwl Posted 17 hours ago Report Share Posted 17 hours ago Managed to pick up a couple of seated tickets for NJ, £90 each once conversions are applied. Happy with that, we were planning an east coast US trip for next year in any case so I guess this just solidifies it for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any tickets to the UK shows get that high thanks to the magic of dynamic pricing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought tickets today to a show for my daughter. Ticketmaster ‘verified reseller’ price was £63 for a ticket with a face value of £49. A £28 mark up for two tickets. Over 25%! I managed to buy direct from the theatre in the end for face value with a £3.50 fee fir the pair. ticketmaster are the biggest touts of all.

NorthernSoul52 Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Take most LG tweets with a pinch of salt, but Ashcroft and Cast being among the support slate is very much to be expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
