    Wonder will they announce another date??


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,012 ✭✭✭MattD


    For small gigs like these, you're only talking about like 1500 people nationwide getting online at 9 on the dot to try and get tickets at 9. Not to mention the possibility of some tickets being reserved for paper sales. It's well within the realms of imagination that these did sell out that fast. No need for tinfoil hatting just yet

    2 tickets in the basket, went through 2 screens to pay. An error occurred.

    **** it.

    They did for London when it sold out. The Olympia already has a booking for the Saturday night so it'll either another venue or the Monday/Tuesday

    Was feeling slightly disappointed at only getting upper circle for Thursday..
    When I see the number of folk who missed out, now counting my blessings.

    Sorry for all who didn't get sorted..

    Oh fingers crossed. Wouldn't care what day to be honest.

    Got 3 standing for the Thursday thankfully

    Got restricted view. Didn't bother going through with the purchase. Can't justify paying 60 quid if I can't even see the band.


  • Registered Users Posts: 80 ✭✭weser777


    row A of the circle for Wednesday sorted!! buzzing!!!

    Bit of a joke a band of that stature playing such a small venue, great for the select few but leaves a lot af fans dissapointed

    Us fans over estimate their widespread popularity. The like of the 3 arena would have been a disaster. The only choices are Olympia and Vicar St and Vicar st has a slightly smaller capacity.

    Had 2 circle seats. Card expired on TM account, wouldn't update it. Lost them.

    Beyond fed up of ticketmaster at this stage


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,544 ✭✭✭Ferris_Bueller


    Tried for 20 mins and no luck. Then I tried to buy individual tickets for the Friday at 9.20 and it worked, managed to get two in the circle. Keep trying folks!

    Plus it's a rubbish venue. Olympia is the best choice for them, irregardless of how disappointed those of us who didn't get tickets might be. Wouldn't have bothered going if they were in the 3 arena.

    Myself and GF had no luck, but thankfully she checked Alex Palace in London and got a pair of standing tickets for the Saturday night show there. Delighted.

    in what respect?

    the demand far outweighed the supply.
    not much ticketmaster can do about that.

    There is a restriction on entry based on card used to buy the tickets so a secondary site can't guarantee that the rule wont be enforced

    I can't speak for that poster but I had two problems this morning.

    1. Shortly after the countdown I got an error.
    2. Had 2 tickets for Wednesday but got an error when I tried to pay.

    Hopefully it'll be like Radiohead and people will trade/sell tickets on here when people can't make it.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 4,343 Mod ✭✭✭✭TherapyBoy


    Got 4 standing for the Wednesday!!

    For future purchases, the Ticketmaster app (I'm using it on iphone) is awesome! I've never missed getting tickets with it yet!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 657 ✭✭✭sally cinnamon89


    I got 2 for Wednesday. Thank god.

    Completely agree with the original poster that the demand outweighed the supply but I had the laptop open and site on my phone. Refreshed both at literally 9:00:00 and both received 'No tickets available'

    Atleast give me some hope! :pac:

    Third time in a row I've failed to get tickets when I've been online as soon as the tickets were released. Fuming.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,511 ✭✭✭Wheety


    Just keep trying folks. I wouldn't have multiple browser windows open though. Just 1 on desktop and the app. Don't know how people post here at 9:02 saying it's sold out. I would just keep trying. You'll eventually get some. I have never missed out for a gig I wanted. You just have to keep trying on both devices constantly. It's 9:45 now though but there is still a chance. I got Pitch 2 for U2 at 10:30 after everyone thought it was sold out.

    I think people give up to early.

    Big time, TM just sent me an email to say there may still be some LCD tickets left, you'd probably need to be searching for 1 ticket at a time
