4AssedMonkey Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 (edited) 36 minutes ago, Gnomicide said: I've got tickets for 6 gigs between now and Christmas, comes to £153 in total. Now obviously none of them are of the stature of Oasis but it does feel like a better way to spend the money. All but one of the acts probably need that cash, too. I do quite like Oasis but don't think I'd go over £80 for them, and I'd want to be able to get the bus home. Made me think about my own purchases so had a look. Through all of 2024 (exc. Glasto) I'll have been to 9 gigs with the total cost of tickets coming in just under £300. Only need/needed 2 hotels so drove/will drive or use public transport for the others. Trying to put a total cost on that, I think it will be around £600-£650. For 9 nights out seeing around 20 different acts in cool intimate venues (and I can only think of one act out of 20 I didn't enjoy). Given that attending one stadium sized gig for a large act and staying over somewhere would cost about the same, I know where I prefer to spend my money.

-TLR- Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 i'm scared to even think about what i've spent on gigs this year, not even considering anything else, there is 4 x Bruce shows already done... plus heading off to New Jersey for Bruce in a few weeks... so umm... yeah... daaaaaaammnnnn actually... probably best not to think about it...

wozwebs Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 Mate has received one, surname begins with W. I sent in a fair few using different email addresses I have and nothing yet. Presume sending thousands though and with unique codes a slower process than bulk emailing in one go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilkyJoe Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 I would be surprised if all the codes were sent out at the same time. Be interesting to see if they trickle out during the next 4 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charliehmiller Posted August 30 Report Share Posted August 30 I got a code though on mine. But when I click the link on the email it just takes me to the normal ticket master oasis page, when I click on a date too it doesn't say presale. Reckon this will appear later?
