Fleetwood Mac announce the first leg of 2013 reunion world tour

sabbath bloody sabbath

I see. Well I hope you enjoy the Gig, I'm sure you will. Sadly can't say the same for everyone that will be forking out over 106 Euro on Friday morning for whatever crap left over seats Ticketmaster try's to flog off! Fleetwood Mac have a gap in their tour schedule that weekend. I wonder will they announce a Saturday night gig or maybe they'll just do one in Northern Ireland. Their definitely planning to do something for Saturday and Sunday. Pity we don't know about any potential 2nd gig in advance so people could try get better seats on the second night instead of paying top dollar for Friday's leftovers. :mad:

What do people reckon the chances are of the Saturday being added? it would be so much easier if I could go the next night

It could happen. Wouldn't surprise me since there's a bit of a gap after Dublin in their tour dates

Gonna start queuing at 5 for tickets! Hopefully I'll get decent seats.

Good luck, just make sure the ticketmaster you go to will be open on time.

It's in Limerick City so I just presumed it'd be open at 9

Sold out in 4 minutes. Saturday up but not on sale yet.

Unless it's sold out Shando - it's coming up for me no matches available. Previous to that it was just saying that tickets weren't on sale yet. I don't mind I have my tickets for Friday night and it suits me fine.

Shando316

Might be sold out then, that was quick!

I was on before 9 ready and waiting and never got close to getting a ticket. WTF?, anyone know was a balls up made or?

How many were they selling this morn at 9? sweet FA I imagine?

Ilovelucy

There was always going to be high demand for them Leslie91. I got two on the phone this morning.

Yeah, seemed like the Friday gig was completely out of the standing tickets, and the only seated ones available was at the very back.

Saturday one doesn't even work on the web, but ringing the number for ticketmaster sales and had a bit better luck. Still no standing, and only general seating. Meh.

Just looking at the Ticketmaster Twitter, apparently the Saturday dates was on sale the whole time, you had to close down your browser and open it up again, what a load of dickey :rolleyes:. I tried just there but was only able to get Block A tickets.

Leslie91

Offered 4 on sat nite in block M for 370 yoyos all in. Too much for that far away from stage for me.

johnnykilo

Actually there are some OK seats available still. Just got 2 in Block E

Leslie91

Anyone got an O2 code?

Got tickets for them in Amsterdam instead for 65 Euro. Couldn't justify paying over 100 for crap seats. Got great tickets and I'll get a nice little memorable trip out of it too. Concerts in Amsterdam are always better! :cool:

Just came across this. Look at the second VIP package - that means they're holding the first 20 rows of seats for those VIP packages!

Ilovelucy

Its working on ticketmaster.co.uk site.

Started queuing at 5.20am in limerick, there was about 8 in the queue by 9 and a few more came into the shop after, only the first 7 or so people got tickets and there was no standing at all to be got and just the 88 euro seated tickets available!

Why not buy saturday and try and swop for friday with someone closer to the date? I've done this before.

I've only just noticed this "Tickemtaster Platinum" option, has that been available for big gigs for a while?

certainly never seen it for any other gigs....

This is the so called great thing about it.

Ticketmaster Platinum offers fans the best available tickets for an event direct from the artist. Platinum Tickets enable market-based pricing (adjusting prices according to supply and demand) for live event tickets. The goal is to give fans fair and safe access to the best tickets, while enabling artists and other people involved in staging live events to price tickets closer to their true value.

It's basically another name for ticketmaster charging 3,4,5 times the face value for the so called best seats in the house.

Example : 2 tickets in Block E Row 5 would set you back €950!! :eek::eek::eek:
