Oasis Tickets

can't you get section 75 on a credit card for a refund or take out insurance for a no (poor)show.

So they've ruled out festivals next year, shame as Glasto would have been amazing,

not enough money to be made at Glasto, also exposes their act to world-wide scrutiny as opposed to mystique of private acts being hyped on social media,
Astley / Blondie at glasto for example - youy can't really go back in time,
conversely duo-loupus at Glasto her fans don't get the music video experience, that's >half of the modern bands appeal along with the parasocial relationship.

That's not true. If it's cancelled you will get a refund on the ticket, but not on the transaction fees, booking fees etc.

I had tickets to see Journey/Cheap Trick in November booked through Ticketmaster, they cancelled the UK tour and I got refunded everything.

Edit: actually no I take that back.

There is about a £3 difference.

Got all the way through 36000 places in the queue to checkout clicked to confirm purchase and the site crashed. Never got back there again so no tickets for me :(

Did it also refund hotel/travel booking?

As I mentioned, it was a mate that mentioned it but knowing the volatility of the brothers I'm pretty happy we've not got tickets.
 
Managed to get more tickets then i needed in the end so sold them to my sisters friends. Wanted 3/4 standing tickets for any of the UK dates so joined all the queues. Scotland and Wales gave me the lowest at around 16k, London was over 60k.
Tried for 3/4 standing at 1st but never come back with any so ended up getting 2 for 8th and 2 for the 9th August at Murrayfield.
Cardiff queue then loaded and managed to get 3 standing for 5th July. Much easier for us coming from Essex, can do it without expensive hotels and half the driving.
 
Glad I'm not into oasis.
This whole thing is pretty vile.

Why can't reselling websites just be made illegal.
And ID actually needed and checked against ticket names.

No wonder people do it. You can make more than most people do. In a month just selling a few tickets?

This dynamic Pricing thing is also grim. Never come across that before.

To be honest not really sure why they don't just stick 400 as face value. Rather than "dynamic pricing".


I can't imagine why anyone would pay so much myself unless money isn't really important.



Whole system should be changed legally really.

I'm sure that 'Dynamic pricing ' on ticket master has to be sanctioned by the band, other wise they cannot raise the prices.

Supposedly it does but 'in demanding' pricing shouldn't exist.

I think what irked the majority, certainly me, was that you the band, promoters and sellers slamming touts and scalpers about (re-)selling above face-value but then they were doing exactly that themselves - at one point i managed to select four vanilla non-premium standing tickets in the basket for the Friday at Wembley at ~£1.4/1.5k, that's over double the face-value cost, which is nuts.

Unfortunately people paid it though :(
 
I get the hype but I couldn’t fathom paying over 400 quid a ticket to see these two. Watch some Youtube clips, turn the volume up and book yourself a nice trip abroad.
