Oasis reunion

I can't talk as I was constantly checking my mobile for my place in the ticket queue.

I've never seen so many people holding and checking their mobiles, and that was in work, staff and customer.

I found it quite funny in the end. I even laughed at myself after the frustration of missing out on a ticket.

Foodbanks, Homeless, NHS on its arse, and then you have people Paying Crazy Money for Oasis tickets.
Look, please come back down to earth, it's a fucking concert by a band that is over the hill and it's not 1990s

Oasis Noel and Liam should be ashamed knowing where they have come from and should know better. They are selling out to the business and milking the public and their fans.

The true face of the UK shown its ugly head yesterday

And football clubs, actors, private rent, house prices, food, water companies, gas companies, beer prices, fish n chips, ice cream, airB&B, house prices, ticket companies, and the list goes on in rip of Britain charging to much.

I agree the world is mad but to single out one act Oasis who will bring enjoyment to lots in rip of Britain is abit unfair.

I do think paying £350 plus for a standing ticket for Heaton Park is madness to be honest but I suppose once you get to the end of the queue after an 8 hr wait you are faced with a split second decision.

well yes and common sense after such time goes out of the window.

My.reaction to £148 was fuck that, but if I had accepted that price suddenly being £355 I would have clicked off unpurchased and lamented over my wasted day by calling oasis and ticletmaster cunts on a football forum

Let's be honest.

Even £100 for a standing ticket would have been a fair price.

Apparently 1.4mill tickets were sold. X's that by £100. Then add on all the merchandise sales, streaming sales, and any other money making ideas that are also part of the tour.

To then add dynamic pricing on top of £148.50 for standing tickets is very poor by Oasis.

Imagine being lucky enough to buy 4 tickets that a lot of people did.( why wasn't it limited to 2 tickets per person?) And then listing all 4 tickets on Viagogo for £700 each. Minus Viagogo fees, that could be a nice £2000 profit. Not bad for a few hours waiting in the ticket queue.
 
Just shows you how hype sells. I have just dug out 2 unused tickets from the last time Oasis played Heaton Park. I could not even give them away.

I was thinking should I have been on the website earlier but don’t think it would have made much difference
 
Interesting people coming out saying don't blame the band it was ticketmaster and ticketmaster saying bands have option to deny surge pricing.

Neither want to take responsibility for being cunts to fans

Are the tickets on viagogo legit?

You're covered if they're not but it sounds like the band/promoters have said they will cancel tickets that were listed on there. Decision was to slap tout prices on fans at the point of sale.

Earlier this week, standing price tickets for Cardiff, London and Edinburgh were advertised as £135 plus fees. But angry fans online said they noted "in demand" pricing on Ticketmaster had increased prices to £355 plus fees.

Ticketmaster say they do not set ticket prices.

A link on the ticketing website stated, external: "Promoters and artists set ticket prices. Prices can be either fixed or market-based. Market-based tickets are labelled as 'Platinum' or 'In Demand'."

Ticketmaster confirmed that fans did not get anything else for the price increase.

Oasis and the band's promoter were not commenting on the issue on Saturday evening.

Dynamic pricing is not new and is allowed under consumer protection laws.

The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) told the BBC it could not pass comment on Ticketmaster's pricing in this instance.

A wankers trick.
 
I know a mug who paid the "dynamic pricing" of £350. I have seen Oasis at Heaton Park, whilst it was good, it wasn't £350 good. The mug has done it to be ostentatious and to show off on social media most likely.

Definitely the bands responsibility, they have control of how tickets are priced. They need calling out for it, but they clearly dont give a shit for their fans as long as they are rolling in the cash.
 
To be fair guys - the band don't get a say in it. There is no band.

Could Liam put up more of a fight? Of course but then it's going to cost him money and he has (3?) divorces to finance.

Noel will, this is his play. Seemingly 2025 has been identified as the year he has sole control of the back catalogue which he is looking to flog for up to a billion quid.

Demonstrate the demand and how much they are now being streamed, get it valued and flog it.

All very very disappointing...........
