What gigs are you going?

Got two standing tickets to Lewis Capaldi in Nottingham. 
 

Think he’s quite talented and very easy to listen to.

 

I’ve been to quite a few gigs where I don’t exactly look the average fan but I’m not sure  about this one. Just having second thoughts. 
 

I’ve sold through Twickets quite a bit before and I don’t mind selling them to another fan at face value.
 

I’ve been trying for a Coldplay ticket for weeks and I watched a video on YouTube yesterday about how the bots automatically hoover up in demand tickets on there to resell and I’ve realised there’s not much point looking anymore. 
 

Awful thing to say but if they’re going to end up on viagogo or stubhub I may as well just do it myself and make some extra.

Oasis tickets are vanishing in less than a second on Twickets. Can’t tell me it’s not bots. Bloody hate it.

I don’t think Twickets care as long as they get a cut.

 

I know for a lot supply exceeds demand massively but if this government wanted an easy win it would just have to grab the entire resale ticket industry/dynamic pricing by the balls.
 

Unfortunately they seem to be bed fellows with big business and heaven forbid they actually upset the apple cart.

Common for Twickets, I had this for another gig a few years ago.

Do you have these tickets for Lewis Capaldi still? Err, my missus is asking for them 😂

I do, kind of, as in I’ve not offloaded them yet. I don’t physically have them yet! I ordered them direct through Motorpoint. You know what it’s like “Tickets will be available nearer the date’ 

 

Would only want face value. Need to recoup what I’ve spent on Alter Bridge and Deftones tickets in the last 24 hours. 
 

If ‘she’s’ interested we can sort something out nearer the time

Pigeon Detectives at Rock City in October.

 

A nostalgic one. 

Saw them in Leeds earlier this year. Still a great band live!

Got four standing tickets for friends to the Deftones at Co-op live on Valentines Day. 
 

I’m joining them but got a Seat Unique hospitality seat for the same price (Dynamic pricing now twice what I paid!) 
 

I don’t mind standing so much but there’s standing and standing for bands like the Deftones! 
 

After a crappy day at work and being on the planet for over 50 years I’m going to my first festival….kind of!
 

Tempted by rumours of Linkin Park and My Chemical Romance I’ve got a weekend ticket to Download next year. Not going to slum it so have paid for parking and will be running back home to the comfort of my bed in Coalville every night.

Oasis on Saturday, Definitely Maybe!

 

I’m going a week on Saturday with some mates as well, we have seats. 
 

On my work email which I also registered for the original presale (and created a TM account) with I got the offer to the production seats at 5pm today. 
 

I was going In for a tentative ‘I’m not that bothered’ look at Saturday, I’m trying to avoid taking anymore time off work for concerts so the other dates of Friday/Wednesday/Sunday were definitely out. The September dates weren’t on offer. 

 

2400ish in the queue thinking ‘maybe there will be the odd restricted view seat left’ I get to the front of the queue and for some reason unlocked the GA standing option with the code (I’m in my mid 50’s the thought of being covered  in ‘beer’ standing at a gig doesn’t really appeal these days, so no idea where my head was when I did this!) picked two tickets thinking ‘No chance here’ next thing I’ve checked out and am £300 lighter. 
 

It wasn’t planned, I was only going in to have a look!

Just been to Kasabian again in Edinburgh. Great gig, Serge is a showman, he’s brilliant every time.


Daughter had her City shirt on which I know is a little cliche but I love it, she loves and she shows it off when she’s on my shoulders, she even got a nod and a smile from Serge tonight which made her night. 
 

Music innit 🖤

I’m sat right now at Audley End House waiting to see Roger Daltrey, Ocean Colour Scene and Cast.

 

”August 1st” they said, “summertime” they said, “bring a picnic” they said….it’s p***ing it down! My pork pie’s soggy, my socks are damp and there’s no fit women off of Downton Abbey in floral dresses offering for me to join them on their blanket for Cucumber sandwiches like on the posters. :(
