Oasis reunion

[Ysabel 123]

What would you suggest they can do to sell 400k tickets in a completely fair way? The only thing that was wrong was dynamic pricing and they won't be doing that again. I went and saw 1 person outside selling tickets and they were incredibly difficult to buy from any reseller, which suggests that 99% of tickets went to genuine fans.

14 million people applied, it's impossible to please them all unfortunately.

I meant about the dynamic pricing pal.

For the Friday and Wednesday gigs there was plenty of touts on Sheepfoot Lane (outside the small box office), the one i bought my first one of have over 20 tickets to sell. On Sunday the touts had barley any to sell.

Remember the Stone Roses at Heaton Park and the touts had that many they couldn't give them away by the time the band came on. Can never stop touts buying them unfortunately but it seemed to me that over these gigs they were the hardest to come by I have ever experienced.

it was superb and emotional.
All credit to organisers , no queue to get in. Easy to get beers, could stand anywhere and see the gig (giant screens) the noise level was just right and the Gallaghers did not disappoint. Whole weekend was great. Met some very good Mancs, think one might be a poster on here ,AJ ? He was by himself and we took him under our wing.
Great weekend all round.

Our so called fans just as much to blame as the rags ,not much actual fighting ,but plenty of glass bottles and full cans launched into the family areas ,a full can missed us by about 2 foot bounced on the ground and nearly took the girls face off next to us , absolute scum ,little kids terrified crying mothers sheilding them from the bottles ,
Plenty of police stood at the. Bottom making sure no one got in but not one turned up in over half an hour of chaos ,we were with an off duty officer and he was amazed they weren't deployed .carnt get my head round why even rags not involved felt the need to come in shirts ,13 second final bucket hats and bring flags , absolute random behaviour ,
For the record the bottles and cans that just missed us were thrown by do called city fans .

You can see in the video that there’s plenty of City fans involved, some in sizeable groups. I don’t know who or what started it.

Have to agree, it was like living the Aguero moment for a full 2 hours, pure unbridled joy everywhere. Not sure what the rest of the tour will bring, but the nights so far are going to be part of music folklore for years to come.

Stop crying your pies out, Dave. I think you might start a pun war here.

Got picked up by the taxi from the 'Aldeh' on bury new road, and the traffic was that bad the 'aldeh' sign was down and replaced by the proper sign before the taxi reached us haha.

The last time Oasis played Heaton Park I went with my youngest daughter, got the bus and the touts were scrambling over each other to be at the front of the doors as we all exited. Bought 2 x £40 tickets for £15 each.

How does touting work these days of ticketless gigs? I thought you couldn’t re-sell these tickets?

You need to have a Ticketmaster account, you basically give them your email address (that is linked to your Ticketmaster account) and they transfer the ticket from their account to yours. its probably 'safer' than buying paper tickets of them TBH

Yeah I just thought they had come up with a way of preventing that and stopping the resale of these tickets.

My daughter and her friend recently applied for a temporary job involving festivals. Was invited to work on the Sunday.

Ended up working 3 or so hours late afternoon and then was able to watch the concert.
