Oasis reunion

[I'm not really here]

They're not that big.

Internationally maybe not, but domestically they're huge.

 

[wayne71]

Yes they are.

Definitely not in the states or oz.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Could have charged £500 a ticket and it would have done, crazy demand.

Absolutely crazy. I blame the gen Z / tic toc generation. They'll be learning all the lyrics now.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Internationally maybe not, but domestically they're huge.

That's what I'm saying. A European tour would sell out. People would go from the UK just like football.

 

[Lavinda Past]

They will. They sold out Madison Square Gardens last time they played there and they have already said they are taking the tour around the world.

Madison Square Gardens, Capacity 20,000

Co-op Live holds more.

So what. What's your point . You love a good argument don't you?

 

[eastmanc]

Well don't go to Oz then.

 

[Magicpole]

They know in a years time it will all be forgotten.

What will?

 

[wayne71]

Well don't go to Oz then.

I’ve just spent 3 hours of my life queuing for tickets so I’m not saying they’re shit mate I’m just saying they’re not that big internationally.

Yet approx 80% of their album sales are outside the UK.

 

[metalblue]

They’ll get cancelled apparently, not sure how that’s policed but that’s the official line that is getting given.

Daughter said for Taylor Swift (who had same policy and didn’t use dynamic pricing) they randomly spot checked people to check names matched tickets. I presume will be same here.

Whatever mate.

Not at all mate. Just saying that a 20k sell-out is not a good example when we're talking about possibly selling out a US tour.

They're big domestically and probably in much of Europe, but worldwide...? Personally I don't think so much.

I find that hard to believe but fair play if true.

 

[bluesmith]

It's true. Album sales are detailed on the below. But as an example definitely maybe sold 16m world wide and 2.4m in the UK.

That's your view. But if I said it's black you would say it's white . You love it a proper wum.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Spare a thought for one of my friends.

“Only Matt could be stuck in a queue for Oasis tickets for hours and when he finally gets onto the page he gets through for tickets to 'Definitely Oasis' tribute act in Harrogate Town Hall.”

They were probably cheaper though.

 

[ray21]

Step Grandaughter, who as stage 4 cancer was in the queue from the start they went on sale and got cut off at 4pm.

 

[N1985]

Sorted two for me and the daughter. Told her we either stand near the back or to take an umbrella

Im not sure how they can when ticketmaster raised the prices themselves
