August 31, 2024Aug 31 Keep checking still, I'm convinced there's still tickets available due to the server issues sites have had. Plus the dynamic pricing will slow down (although I know a few people who caved and bought at that price).
August 31, 2024Aug 31 All sold out for London </3 Well done to those who somehow managed to get some!
August 31, 2024Aug 31 My friend got to the end of the queue and the £150 standing tickets were £400 each labelled as "in demand standing tickets." Ticketmaster raising the prices on them!? If so that is SO bad!
August 31, 2024Aug 31 The Irish Sun is reporting that Oasis are to play two more nights at Croke Park next summer, claiming that the band are "very likely" to play the venue on August 23 and 24 as well as the already announced shows.

If so that is SO bad! Oasis and their team signed off dynamic pricing. Coldplay and Springsteen did the same too - frankly I find it disgusting. These acts are quick to call out touts but will allow themselves to rip off their fans! I feel this will never stop though without any goverment intervention

These acts are quick to call out touts but will allow themselves to rip off their fans! I feel this will never stop though without any goverment intervention I wasn't sure whether the artist actually got a say in it or not, if they do then they deserve some of the flack too frankly and its also disgusting of Ticketmaster. It's not even like its adding 10% of the ticket value or something, i'd still disagree with that in principle, but fact is they more than doubled the face value price of the ticket which was already expensive, outrageous tbh. I know there has already been grumblings about this after Taylor Swift and expect a lot more fury now after this one. I can only hope it leads to real pressure for change.
August 31, 2024Aug 31 Its greed all round that leaves a sour taste in the mouth. Oasis, Coldplay, Swift etc... will be raking it in from the massive ticket sales anyway as thats where most of the money is in the industry these days and the ticket retailers will already be making very handsome commission no doubt, yet they all want more at the expense of pricing the ordinary fan out of the experience. I will say as a fan i'm disappointed if the Gallaghers have indeed signed off on this, knowing a lot of their fanbase comes from working class communities. At the very least there should be a strict limit on how much the face value of a ticket can be 'dynamically priced', ideally the practice should be outlawed completely. Relying on the fact that some have more money than sense and allowing everybody else to be priced out after sitting patiently waiting in a long queue is a pretty shameful business model.
August 31, 2024Aug 31 On an attempt at a slightly lighter note, I wonder just how high their designated 3 tracks could chart on this weeks chart. They are currently dominating Apple so much it looks like a big album bomb. Will be interesting to see the Spotinumbers.
September 1, 2024Sep 1 oh now I understand so that's the dynamic pricing!! Cos when it was our turn we only could find tix in the outer tier that were 500, but were the shittiest tix, super far, and couldn't understand how they charged 500. I think the Eras situation was much better. You had the hussle of the precodes but at least everybody I know managed tix

You had the hussle of the precodes but at least everybody I know managed tix The Eras tour had something similar, but the dynamic seating was replaced with something else. Personally. I'd suggest everyome write to their local MP, suspect the only way this can or may stop is with some form of legislation. The artists/promoters defintely sign this off themselves as it's connected to the agreement. Agreed RE the pre-codes though. With Ticketmaster it was a complete farce, I suspect a good percentage of tickets were sold in the pre-sale and on Saturday who knows! I got through on See Tickets through complete chance when it randomly let me through.

I got through on See Tickets through complete chance when it randomly let me through. I was going to make the same suggestion about writing to your MP. Conveniently, the Labour manifesto included a commitment to introduce legislation on the resale of tickets. It is worth asking your MP to encourage the government to extend the scope of this legislation to cover dynamic pricing. If they are a new MP, don't forget to butter them up by congratulating them on winning :lol: If you are one of those rare people with a Tory MP, it is still worth writing. One of the politicians who has long campaigned against reselling tickets is a Lib Dem peer. It needn't be a particularly p[arty political issue. Some of the artists who have agreed to dynamic pricing have really disappointed me. I would have expected the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Chris Martin and Taylor Swift to oppose it.

I wrote to my MP yesterday, like you say, this is probably the perfect time. Just annoys me that people desperate to pay are forced in to paying double the price for exactly the same product. I suspect dynamic pricing will only become more prevelant too.
September 2, 2024Sep 2 I couldn't get anywhere near tickets of course, I was way back in the queue. Hopefully it will be filmed and released to buy or stream. Been listening to the 30th Anniversary release of Definitely Maybe today and wow at the Monnow Valley version of Shakermaker keeping in the lyrics of I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing. How is Shakermaker still only credited to Noel Gallagher, did he not have to add retrospective credits for the writers of that track?

Apparently that was enough. In hindsight they should have asked for more I guess
September 4, 2024Sep 4 In a statement issued to PA Media, the band said: "It needs to be made clear that Oasis leave decisions on ticketing and pricing entirely to their promoters and management." They added they had "at no time had any awareness that dynamic pricing was going to be used" in the sale of tickets for the initial dates. The band's statement came as they announced two further live shows at Wembley Stadium on 27 and 28 September 2025. Oasis said tickets for the new dates would be handed out via a "staggered, invitation-only ballot process". Applications for the ballot for new dates will only be open to those who were unsuccessful in the initial Ticketmaster sale, they added. Oasis acknowledged in their statement that the roll out of tickets over the weekend had not gone as planned.
