Oasis tickets

So I didn't make the ballot so missed out on the pre sale and I'm angered that viagogo have purchased a load of pre sale tickets and are selling them for 600 quid each! It's a dream to see oasis in Manchester (my home town) and its looking very unlikely unless some miracle happens in the queue for general sale tomorrow... just ranting but please keep your fingers crossed for me

Keep an eye on Twickets (sp?). I suspect there’ll be a fair amount of buyers’ remorse amongst people who see it as unethical to cash in 🤞

All of Wembley is now grayed out for us for the 26 July so assuming it's sold out.

What a bloody waste of all those hours. Well done to those who got tickets, what a slog it's been!

WhamBamThankU · 31/08/2024 15:24

7 of us were logged on to try and get tickets from 8am, two of us got to the selecting tickets stage then were booted, one was then put 250000th in the queue. I've been queuing just to get onto the site until 1.30pm and am now 146000th.

Starting to think I've got a kink the way I'm letting Ticketmaster bend me over and torture me!!

It's total pot luck. I've been on since 9 and am still 125k. Partner joined queue 15 mins ago at 180k and is now at 80k! Oh he's 20k now! Oh now 2k. I'm still on 118k. Oh he's just been booted 😂

If you are both using the same address it will kick one of you off. So each time one of you reaches the front of the queue it identifies that you are both using the same address. I thought it was the email address but since it’s limited to four tickets per household it’s your actual address.

All you needed to have been guaranteed a code was to have signed up for their mailing list. Much less painfu

I don't know anything about it really but wasn't it called a 'pre-sale ballot'.

I'm not sure if you actually applied for tickets or not but it was very literally a pre-sale ballot?

Moirarosesgarden · 31/08/2024 15:31

Just got to the Wembley map and three blocks were highlighted blue (assuming meaning they had seats left)… the blue turned to grey in front of my eyes and now whole map grey with no option to select anything. I’ve been in the queue since 8:20am! Arggghhh!

CellophaneFlower · 31/08/2024 15:31

I'm finally in for 25th. A few seats dotted about or I can get only 2 standing for the ridic 716. I'm going to politely decline!

TheNuthatch · 31/08/2024 15:32

Dd got to the front this morning and got kicked off the website when she went to pay! Tickets were still at the advertised price then.

I was in the queue to join the queue with no place number etc. I just got a pop up 10 minutes ago saying it's your turn! I went on and standing tickets at heaton park 20th July are now £355 each! It's absolutely shocking. It nearly killed me, but I didn't buy them. Have now logged off. How is that even allowed! I'll take dd to Paris for her 16th instead!

Evenstar · 31/08/2024 15:32

Finally got through for the 30th at Wembley , not even one ticket left at any price

Squeezetheday · 31/08/2024 15:34

I’m out, finally got through for Wembley and all they had left were ones over £400 each. Fuck that!

wonderstuff · 31/08/2024 15:35

Finally got to ticket selection cheapest was £305 and that was a seat on its own, over £400 if you want to sit next to a friend! Just crazy money.

Do feel sorry for any other band wanting to sell concert tickets this weekend!

ThatsNotMyTeen · 31/08/2024 15:36

standing tickets for Murrayfield, £357 each.

no thanks

HelloCheekyCat · 31/08/2024 15:36

We finally got to the front at about 2.45pm, all seated were £400+

So no thank you!

Iknowitsyou · 31/08/2024 15:36

Did u have any luck? I went on at 7am and had it sitting with the countdown timer as soon as it got to 10 mins instead of waiting room it crashed out also lost me my place in the Dublin queue. Had zero luck all day and feel sad. It’s the one band my DH and I both love and will listen too together. Got one chance for tickets around 1pm but was over £1000 for them which was just out of our price league 😭

Pedallleur · 31/08/2024 15:42

Well done all of you who sense to say no. I wish you got a refund for time wasted. Imagine if you were in Tesco with those tickets in your basket and the till said NO or your shopping went from £100 to 300 before you paid. I can't understand how we allow ourselves to be sucked into this madness. These acts didn't pay this ludicrous money when they were young.

LittleGreenDuck · 31/08/2024 15:42

I finally got to the front of the queue and it kicked me out and sent me back to the lobby! Was waiting for Cardiff and having read that there's nothing sensibly priced left, I think I'll leave it and see if they release more dates. Grrr.

Aquarius1234 · 31/08/2024 15:43

Keeps telling me to join the queue. Then nothing.

Aquarius1234 · 31/08/2024 15:44

Had a really late night so hardly slept 😴
Anyone else just getting a round circle

Russiandollsaresofullofthemselves · 31/08/2024 15:46

easy way to make money. i don’t even like oasis.

Picoloangel · 31/08/2024 15:46

We finally got through having been booted off at 9am from an IT glitch. Only tickets £500 plus. Nope not paying that.

RossGellersCat · 31/08/2024 15:48

This was my reward for waiting 6.5 hours...

GeordieRacer · 31/08/2024 15:50

Finally told me I'd got to the front of the queue then kicked me to the back again. Gutted

Same. Really should have just slept all morning!

Squeezetheday · 31/08/2024 15:51

was trying to check other dates and I think Ticketmaster has died. Still no luck with see tickets or gigs and tours!

bendmeoverbackwards · 31/08/2024 15:52

What a joke. I’m not even a fan but the ticket prices are insane. Dh was in the queue for a few hours then gave up.

I’m also annoyed that the ticket release was on a Saturday, if you’re a religious Jew there’s no chance of getting tickets.
