Just been on TM and twigged that! regardless Belfast is set at 9 per person :eek:

Also noticed Dublin says price range €39-€40, Belfast price listed as above and tickets for both shows appear to be now on sale at 10 now although no point editing OP in case info is off.

Would this be likely to sell out?

Absolutely.

It's on it's way to it for sure, Ticket allocation on TM for Ulster Hall was gone in no time so whatever is left has to be got direct from their box office/website.

I managed to get tickets... there is no doubt this will SO. Looking at TM, there is only restricted view seats left. What are the chances of a 2nd night, on the Monday maybe?

Well they're playing Hellfest on Sunday 18th so a Monday gig would be unlikely imo.

Selling 2 tickets (standing) for this gig, face value, think with fee's they come to 85euro for the pair

Only stipulation i have is that the buyer has at least 100 posts in either the gig/event thread or the Rock/Metal thread (that tout caught out on the u2 (??) thread is making me wary)

Try toutless. Please don't sell it to him if you can avoid it. I hate touts

i won't sell it to him, no worries on that score

scudzilla

Hmmm, just tried logging into toutless and i'm banned for touting :pac::pac:

Looked into it, i tried to sell a pair of tickets to a Snowpatrol gig at the button factory for 140euro, i won them in a comp and the asking price i put was what they were charging for a gig at the point, apparently as they were free tickets i could only have asked for nothing for them so was banned.

Totally forgot about that until now, dirty tout that i am :pac::pac:

Seems fair, you tried to make a profit on a concert ticket.

totally agree, at the time i thought asking for the same price as a recent snowpatrol gig was fair enough, i was wrong

Seemed unfair to me, unless the 140 was over the price in the button factory, which is against the rules. If people are expected to charge nothing they would not go through the hassle of meeting people. So people who are dying to go to a gig, and would pay anything now could be missing out. Lose-lose situation.

I checked to see the wording of this rule and seems there is no rule against it, in fact they specifically say it IS allowed.

Tickets which are locked to the original buyer aren’t allowed be sold.
For events which require you to show ID to prove you are the named person on a ticket you may not list or request tickets. Discussion on how to circumvent these measures will not be entertained. These are frequently anti-touting measures which are to limit particularly special or rare events to fans only and it would be against the ideals of this website to promote attempting to bypass them. This includes, but is not limited to, the Glastonbury festival. This also includes non transferable prizes such as addition to guestlists. Any form of complimentary or 0 priced tickets are allowed to be sold at the face value of that event as normal. Tickets for entirely free events must be passed on for free. This rule also prevents the resale of wristbands from previously redeemed tickets.

I still do not understand their rules against the likes of the radiohead gig. Again genuine fans could be missing out on tickets which could have been sold to them at face value, another lose-lose situation.

EDIT I see now the snow patrol ones could only be won, so it was against the rules

Still have a pair of standing for this at face value

Great show last night. Caught a couple of songs from Red Sun Rising, but they sounded promising.

And Alter Bridge are coming back in October!

Pink11

Brilliant gig. Sound was spot on, those guys are seriously talented.
