There is absolutely nothing to getting in the waiting room early / as it opens, i was in by 5.01 on 3 devices and got sod all.    

I didn’t refresh on my phone or laptop, it just ticked over into the count.   There was an Apple pay option, unfortunately I panicked and forgot my credit card was registered with Apple Pay so ended up typing in my partners card instead.. but will maybe use Apple Pay next time, though I do get the fear about switching windows to authorise payment, it was less stressful to have my partner do that for me.

So which headliners we blind guess for the rest of the lineup? My guess would be something like: Good Charlotte and some pop-ish name. Wouldn’t count with something heavier. 

Yeah, I needed to refresh to get into the waiting room.

My summary of it; absolute bloody bobbins.   It's the end of an era, is now down to pure luck and totally out of our hands, whereas before it was only mostly down to pure luck and totally out of our hands but at least we had some small modicum of influence on the outcome that we could deploy by spamming F5. I was in the queue on two devices to see if I could get in and buy for one of the groups, but never got more than two progress bars, just sat here looking at my screens twiddling my thumbs for half an hour. Pure tosh, have no optimism whatsoever for Sunday tbh. Que sera, sera!
