Could all those praying on some miracle on getting tickets to Garth Brooks please close your browsers.

It's sold out, it's over, hard luck, stop making the site crawl along.

Some of us have Michael Bolton tickets to purchase

The only way to combat the pure and utter rubbish that is Ticketb@st@ard online is for them to do an audited pre-registration system.

Ive had that experience trying to get tickets for other gigs before, but frankly I think anyone who didnt get tickets today has dodged a bullet.

Gutted for anyone who didn't get them. I'm disgusted to see that people are selling them already online for 4 times the value. scumbags!

It says on the tips for booking vertigo sufferers should book the lower seats. So they've "warned" you, they'd probably say it was up to you after that.

:( missed that part. i honestly didn't think i would get anything.

The BBC already rewriting history. I bet they just fill in the blanks these days regards artist and venue and don't update the time. Official ticketmaster announced sell out times were 10.30 am for Friday and Saturday. 11am for Sunday. Plenty of reports of people getting tickets up to those times at least.

Im heartbroken with the Davin stand, one night. Nothing else available.


Even if there's gigs announced for thomand, its more of this crap.


Im in tears.


Even if I got something better for the one night.

Am I getting this right?

You have a ticket for a concert you wanted to go to and you're 'heartbroken'.

I got 2 Lower Cusack 312 for Sunday . Delighted

My OH was on the site too before me and couldnt get them so its very unfair on how they are distributed.

If people didn't buy them at stupid prices, there wouldn't be a market for it. I got the 3 tickets I needed and didn't buy more, but can see why people would go for 6 and sell them to make a profit if people are stupid enough to pay 400 - 800 euro for a ticket.

OldGoat

So will there be any genuine swaps allowed

Maybe she'll get a swap closer the time!

Hopefully can get a swap closer to the date.

Edit, are swap requests allowed here?

How many standing tickets did you get? I got 3 seating tickets for Sunday which I'd rather swap straight up for standing!

Ps.Ill take two of your tickets if selling

I still looking for swap need Fri nite tickets for sat night please ?

Swapping tickets is a breach of the forum charter. No ticket trading please.

The only way to stop the tickets going on the web is to bring in a system of putting names on the tickets and only allowing people into the venue that have photo id to match the ticket names . If there where purchased online then the card holder should only get a new ticket with a changed name by going to a ticketmaster outlet with there billing information and card used to purchase the tickets . I bet that will stop all the touts having a field day .

Agreed. And then factor in the blast of sound that will hit her full face on whenever they play. And 2 big screens to view as well. :D:D

I know. Unfortunately peopple are willing to pay the insane prices for them! there's no way in hell, as much as I love Garth Brooks, that I would pay above the odds for the tickets

Well, she got a nosebleed seat so it's understandable in a way. She could have been hoping for pitch perhaps.

SOLD OUT will there be another concert somewhere

Ah, the poor woman.

If ever anyone lived up to their username.

Maybe she should stay at home altogether and give her ticket to someone who would be glad of it.

When tickets sell like that consider yourself lucky to get one . I have been on ticketmaster all morning for a friend and we couldn't get tickets and there was 4 people looking for him .

Loads of them on ebay. But most of them are people who bought them online today and as such dont have the physical ticket in their hand which is against eBay policy.

i saw one or two people on here saying they went online for the crack to see if they get tickets. hello people, it's not fair on those of us who genuinely wanted to buy tickets to see garth brooks. there are probably people without now because you wanted to see for the crack :mad:

You can get electronic tickets - so they may have them.

Got 2 pitch standing for Sunday at about 10:25. My sister-in-law was mad to go, but wasn't sure she could get tickets. Turns out she did through a friend, so I offered them to another friend who couldn't get through to Ticketmaster. He couldn't make Sunday. Another friend snapped them up instantly. Happy to help out friends who don't have luck with Ticketmaster... Can't stand these a**holes who charge an arm and a leg.
