    No probs. The reality is that Ticketmaster are somewhat unlikely to follow through and cancel tickets but I was in the same boat yesterday (with Mrs. E looking to get tickets for her sister but under her account) and I told her it's just not worth the risk as if they do cancel them, you're out of tickets for a gig that was a nightmare to get them for and you've no real argument.

    Very grateful to the person who posted here yesterday about Monday being announced, I saw it quickly and was in around 800 and had my tickets within 3 or 4 minutes. I bought two in sheer panic and ffor ear that if I added anymore that it'd kick me out! Queing today for the other two in my party who didn't get sorted yesterday but by the looks of things they won't be getting sorted today either. Hard to know whether the majority of tockets went yesterday or if they've just held a lot back for the general sale on Friday. Seems like most people didn't get anything yesterday either.

    Don't do much of this ticket queueing usually but for future reference, are you better off joining the lobby an hour beforehand or a minute before the waiting room opens?

    Does getting there early offer any benefit to clicking just before it opens?

    Got 2 standing tickets for Thursday. Would have preferred seated for Friday but Friday Q was too long to chance the luck. Anyone know what pitch c is like?

    There's no split on the pitch. The 'C' is just a batch number.

    Many thanks to the poster that put up the MCD links. Clicked into the Monday link about 5 mins before ten and ended up number 66 in the queue! Got two pitch standing with no issues. Just pure luck as I spent half the day yesterday messing with the various queues to no avail.

    just had a look at the queues

    Over 30k in each of them.

    You would have thought TM would have just pulled the plug on them and told everyone all tickets have gone. Some may be hanging around for hours not realising everything has gone

    Who was the MCD presale even for? I can understand a 3areas pre sale for Three customers, but not MCD

    Got 4 pitch tickets for Friday. Started at around 10k in queue with a residents pre-sale code (not sure if that makes a difference).

    Time to introduce a Ballot for sell-out events (he says, having not gotten tickets)

    It's not First Come/First Served if the queue is randomised after the waiting room. It's pure hit & hope.

    And at least with the Ballot approach you'd know X number of Tickets available. Y chance of obtaining tickets.

    Reduces bottlenecking stress on the website.

    Reduces hours wasted by people queuing (with no visibility on whether there's even tickets left or not)

    Reduces ticket hording.

    Fair play for sending on them links! I sent them to family and friends and they got tickets out of them! Unfortunately I wasn't so lucky today. I have tickets already that don't really suit me date wise but hopefully can swap them.

    Must remember this in future for MCD presales, could be very handy 😁

    you must have gotten a separate link as there was no code to enter for the MCD one

    Exactly, once the tickets have been sold the queue should be closed.

    I definitely wouldn't worry about tickets for this gig

    Over 80 k available for each night

    So 320 k in total approximately

    People are panic buying and having major FOMO

    By the time the gigs come around they'll have sold on their tickets

    TM will trickle release more over the next few weeks as overbooking householders and credit cards get caught and tickets get cancelled and re sold

    Then once the logistics are worked out and safety officers look at the stage design they'll release extra production hold tickets


    There's always tickets available for the big gigs
