I wasn’t following that. I remember I bought tickets on eBay for oasis secc in 2008 for about double face value then when it came near the event my friends said they didn’t want my tickets as they’d found them for face value to I just had to give them away for less and take the hit for it myself. The thing here is you have actual face value then you have a dynamic price that someone may have paid and they will just say they want what they paid for it and then you’ve got your tout value that might just be an utter pisstake price. So a standing ticket could either be £150 £350 or over a grand depending on what sort of a person your buying it off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Wilson Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 1 hour ago, Stevie Kirk said: My mate was trying to get tickets for his daughter for Taylor Swift in Edinburgh . His thought process was that if he left it to the very very last minute the price would drop a bit as the touts tried to offload rather than holding onto soon to be worthless tickets. He lives 30 mins drive from the venue so could afford to take it to the wire. interestingly what happened was the opposite, demand increased and the prices climbed in the hour prior to opening to well over a grand a ticket. Needless to say he didn’t bother. Father of the year nomination dismissed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"They will announce two more Wembley shows on Friday - and are hoping to work out dates for even more shows. "They were stunned by the demand for tickets and want to give back to their fans as much as they can." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 The band have also said they left the pricing etc to ticketmaster and management.

Sugar_Army Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 MY mate pointed out the two night gap on Friday night. Maybe a rest or an extra date possible. I saw Oasis at Balloch and then Ingliston in 96 and in Aberdeen in 97 but never bothered after that. Like somebody said, it seemed like the event to be seen at next year. I just entered because it is a significant birthday next year for me and nephew. I entered for the ballot but never got an email. I logged on and was 5,000 in the queue at 9.30 for Saturday tickets, got in, selected tickets but got an error message. No matter what combination I tried, I kept getting the error message. So I just went an cut the lawns instead. I go into work on Monday to hear a woman tell me she had been trying for 8 hours and I doubt she could name 3 Oasis songs and in 15 years of working with her I have never heard her mention them once. Must have been galling for her that a friend down the road got 4 tickets in the pre-sale. 2 tickets in the sale while her partner was sitting next to her got 4 tickets! As others have mentioned, if you have price in mind, tickets will become available as some buying them will be looking to offload. Feck panic dynamic prices. That could be a week on holiday somewhere. The brothers have a role to answer in this, they could easily told promotors to set tickets at a certain price and that is it. They have the power and doubt they need the money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggy McJagface Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 There will be lots of gaps in their tour as they are in their 50’s and Liam’s voice won’t be able to handle 20 gigs in 30 days or whatever it would end up being. This is why they’re doing 2 consecutive nights at the weekends with a week off in between and only the odd midweek gig. Saw lots of chat of them breaking Taylor Swift’s 10 night record at Wembley, and they could easily have surpassed this if they really wanted to, but I’m glad they’re doing gigs in other cities instead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows. The band members could have just been told they’re getting x amount for the tour and left the rest for others to sort out. You just don’t know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 (edited) One of my mates got tickets for Liam Gallagher at Hampden in 2022 for £33 rather than face value of £85 thanks to dynamic pricing. Think loads of folk got tickets for him or the Eagles at that time for a fraction of face value. Edited September 4 by Fuctifano 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About £400 a skull. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArabGaz Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Forget the WTSMG 30 year celebrations, next year marks the 25th anniversary of Standing on the Shoulder of Giants so it’s only right that they play Little James and I Can See a Liar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
