And just to cap off a wank morning... Arsenal take the lead

Were you expecting anything else?

 

[I'm not really here]

Joined the queue this morning at just over 4000.
Got to the bit to choose the tickets, then enter my card security number, tick term and conditions, processing my order, still processing my order, still processing my order whilst the little timer was ticking away, still processing my order then it timed out, threw my out and now I rejoined at over 240,000 in the queue.

Makes you appreciate how professional our ticket office

Capitalism needs a reset, getting screwed left right and centre. There's an article in the mirror today about the cost of food at gigs. Over a tenner for loaded chips at the coop and 8 quid for a pint!

I wont buy anything overpriced unless I have to like gas and electric, if an activity is too expensive it's a no if a food place is too expensive it's no.

If we got together and starved these retail thieves out we'd be a better society for it, but as soon as something popular pops it's head up we go all toilet roll and hand sanitiser and grabby.

Yep, it's as if over a hundred quid is acceptable, I get supply and demand but I'm getting priced out of concerts. Only pay £485 for my padded seat (FOC) in East Stand L 2, £160 for one concert is just too much, I'd love to go but I'd be needing a piss every half hour.

I'm going to put Definitely Maybe on my CD player, stand in my garden and get Mrs H to throw pints of piss at me, that'll do.

Lucky you, she charges me 200 quid an hour to do that when I nip round every other Friday

Can you imagine going in a dealership and saying 'I've seen a car on your website for 5k,I'd like to take a look' and they say 'that's 10k now'
'eh, how come?'
'well we had 2 this morning, we've sold one, this is the last one so it's gone up'

Twitter are saying the prices on Ticketmaster have just doubled.

I think the whole point of the Oasis music and the reunion is to reach out to new fans so they buy the back catalogue and live the dream that others have already lived, Yes loyal fans are going to say LOOK I've got all my badges and Cds box sets and ticket stubs and yes I am Oasis number 1 fan where my ticket,

But I feel this reunion is going to be around for some years and many tours will happen, Every year it will be flogged to death with stadium tours and even new music released by Oasis.

You are going to see this sort of thing happen all the time with bands getting back together for world tours,
It's the new way to sell music ? The days of CDs or vinyls or selling music on the internet with hits don't make enough money anymore,

All the Big bands sold the rights to their back catalogue years ago and now doing reunion tours is the only way of making money, £150 cheapest tickets at Heaton Park WOW, Fuck me at least Dick Turpin wore a mask when robbing the people.

Very true, It went up to £353pound to stand in Heaton Park waited all morning and none of us got a ticket, we should of lied about our ages
