I would imagine you couldn't just pass tickets on and you are asked to show the credit card used etc. I hope so anyway as I detest touts.
If the tickets are swapped via the ticketmaster app they have no way of knowing how much you paid for the ticket. You could've paid 2k for a ticket or you could've been sent it by a friend.
And whilst they may check some tickets on the gate, there's no way they're going to be able to check 80k peoples credit card info and proof of purchase before giving them entry.
Is there a possibility of European dates? We'd definitely consider a European break plus gig
I'm pretty sure they said the UK and Ireland gigs would be the only gigs in Europe
shame. We're pretty much resigned to not going. Not going to pay silly money for a gig that lasts only a few hours. We listen to them at some point most weeks plus Liam on his tod and will carry on doing just that

For now ..... but if you're trying to maximise hype (and sales) you don't release everything all in one go. You drip feed supply at a rate that is under the demand.

Strong rumours of US dates and also big stadium shows in South America, but nothing in Europe currently.
I saw something that also mentioned Singapore and Tokyo but yeah nothing else in Europe.
Japan on my list, so could combine if at a good time of year. I've been to Singapore a few times but Shrek hasn't - always thought we'd stop on route to Australia. Not sure how the atmosphere would quite compare to the UK though!

Standard procedure.... probably have to wait for the pricing issues to be less fresh now too.
They are kinda in a shit situation now, roll out dynamic pricing again or don't.... and 90% of people that purchased on Sunday are pissed off.

I'd imagine it's the same concert but with a lot less dickheads.
I've just been reading that this "dynamic pricing" bullshit helps to cut out touting. No it doesn't - it just makes the ripping off of fans "official". They're still getting fleeced.

Twickets seems like a good shout but need to be lightning fast!
Happy to by more than one, and should be able to do so last-minute.

Very poor form.
Even my other half doesn’t seem that bothered about it now & he was desperate to go.
Sad ain’t it.
