Oasis reunion

I paid about €375 face value for my Istanbul CL final ticket. Would you have told me not to pay that much for a football match, would you have said I’d gone mad? Actually don’t answer the last part!

Also, should the players have come out and said something and demanded tickets not to be sold that high ?
 
I'm just wondering what the next move will be after dynamic pricing.
They're obviously hard at work looking for ways to milk as much money as possible out of people. It's hateful. You can just imagine these people in the boardrooms punching the desk and screaming in between the lines of coke. They are fucking psychopaths.

It’s down to the performers whether dynamic pricing is used, there may be lines of coke but not in the boardrooms.
 
Looks like after these concerts they going to pick a few in Europe Australia and maybe USA!

After that I hope Oasis go into a studio and produce an album!

This will have a big knock-on effect in the music business, The demand for tickets and what people are willing to pay. even for corporate tickets are sold out, Live Music is the way forward and reunion tours by bands will all start popping up

It shows that we as a society deserve them too, people are paying because they can and as you say they are getting milked forcing those who can't pay and have probably been Oasis fans since the conception to miss out.

If people think the working class Gallagher brothers don't know about this they're deluded, this is going to come back and bite them on the arse in the long run IMHO.

Remember the London Olympics where they had a ballot followed by the panel giving people tickets for any event as long as it was the Olympics so that Tarquin and Henrietta can say they were there.

It's the lack of transparency that is the most nauseating. If they had announced the price when they increased it, rather than the vague message about limited availability and prices, most people would have fucked it off. If you're 50000 in the queue and you know that they are £350, then at least you know what's coming. If you wish to proceed and are happy to pay the price, then more fool the person that does.
It's taking advantage of the most dedicated. After queueing for 8 hours, it puts people in an awful position.

In all honesty I reckon 99% went at original price pretty quickly and the unlucky ones stuck with issues in a queue until the afternoon got the dregs which were fed back into the system from people who had payments declined or whatever.

I'd be interested to know the number of tickets they actually sold at the 'dynamic' prices.

Yes I know that , the Gallaghers are totally culpable in this but it's the likes of Ticketmaster who come up with ideas like dynamic pricing.
I get that they are angry about touts making millions from secondary ticket sales but they could put touts out of business if they really wanted to. The Gilmour Albert Hall thing is one way.

To be fair Ticketmaster came up with the software and made it available to artists, not sure they make much from it themselves.

Yup, they agree with corporate touting just not the one man band entrepreneur.

Haha, they’d have to write new album first before they could go the Gilmour route ;-)

It's all subjective, really. They were never my favourite band, far from it, but I was putting a playlist together this morning and you forget just how many good songs they've written. My mates and I will be going for a nostalgia kick and the belief that this may be the last time we get to see them.

Nobody is putting a gun to peoples head to pay £350 a ticket. But if some are willing to pay that, good luck to them.

In a few years they'll be playing Delamere forest

I don’t think it will. They’ll tour and sell merchandise / back catalogues before giving it up for good. It’s one final payday.

I could quite happily be hated by the masses with the Gallaghers’ personal fortunes.

I disagree mate, their working class "Only need cigarettes and alcohol" persona is shot, the people who loved them for it will see them as greedy bastards and the cocky walk in the snug walk just wont wash.

Where before this there was no criticism there will now be plenty, they are already very rich people and for a few extra quid they sold their bragging rights together with a lot of the fans they have had all the way through for a few more shekels.

They just come across as greedy cunts.
