i don't think it's safe to announce a Tour for next year as they planned that COVID-19 will comback in Autumn.

I think it's really tricky for singers/popstars at the moment (as it is for most professions). They want to tour (and NEED to tour) because it's their livelihood so they are planning and announcing dates, but nobody knows if it's going to be feasible. I have bought tickets to two shows since the pandemic started; I won't be buying anymore because everything is too uncertain and I can't see how we can go from the situation we're in now, to massive shows, in a matter of months.

I won't be buying tickets for anything at the moment it's just too risky.

I plan to see her in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Holland. Maybe more. I'll see.

Not UK. Peoples are crazy there.

Yeah same. Specially the way that UK/USA are dealing with this virus, it seems too much of a risk for the moment. I would rather invest in the music itself for now and help that way. Tour-wise, I think May might be ok for an act like her but Im not holding my breath.... It would be much safer for her to do Summer concerts or even later in the year...

 

Gosh, Ms Corona really f***ed everything up hey

Great minds!

I’m not intending to get tickets either, unfortunately. :( It just doesn’t feel like the right time.

Calm down people if it goes tits up , you just get a refund.

By May next year, I'm sure there will be a vaccine. ;)

Not quite. All the tours and shows that were cancelled/postponed this year, it was a massive struggle to get a refund, so I would rather not.

We live in hope. Latest reports is that even if there is a vaccine done this year, it will take the best part of the next couple years until everyone has it. The levels of stress around that will be wild...

 

I just think it isnt a great time tbh to be announcing tour dates. Let this pass a bit first rather than jumping at the gun.

 

God, I hate capitalism. I really do...

When I booked for Lady Gaga and she cancelled we lost the £14 booking fee per ticket as the venue don't refund that, which was £84 down the drain I was livid.

Yeah similar. It took me MONTHS to get refund from Dua Lipa and Goldfrapp tickets, had to threaten them with a court case and the venue kept the bloody ticket fees too, in the end.

 

LIVID!! So unless these tickets are like £10 each, I think I will wait this time* and purchase when the situation has cleared a bit...

 

 

*buy This Time by Melanie C, now available on Amazon :teresa:

What's good is that we know she will tour small venues, and those will be the first to open. :cheer:

This is true!!

They might not be. There's been talk that rather than limiting it to a set number of people, they might go with a limited amount of people per m2.

Including booking fees or just the ticket price? Also did you have ticket insurance?

This year I bought 2x Kesha tickets (for a friend) and overall it cost £70.65, but when she cancelled I got a refund of £67.90. The £2.75 "handling fee" (i.e. booking fee) wasn't refunded.

 

Booking fees being refunded seems to vary depending on where they were purchased from. I bought those particular tickets from Ticketmaster.

Wow the shade in that comment "This year I bought 2x Kesha tickets (for a friend)" :kink: :rofl: :teresa: :P

:kink: I don’t mind Kesha! She’s not a super fave or someone I’d feel like seeing live though :heehee:
