Yeah....but I mean, don't get one now go to the gig and get one off a tout outside on the day. I've always managed to get tickets outside venues and loads cheaper than off the likes of seat wave etc...

How much did you generally pay?

22-11-2013, 08:22 PM
you can go to Crufts, the worlds largest dog show for two days for £16.50

Can imagine Jake now making a 5 hour round trip to go to the gig, turning up in his Arctic Monkeys t shirt, and then having to stand outside all night cos he can't get a ticket

Normally face value or there abouts

King Gizzard
22-11-2013, 08:24 PM
Touts always end up making you pay alot more/sometimes they're undercover police

there's not really much in it for them if they're not going to make a big profit

the only time it happens is when people have a spare ticket that they need to sell desperately/they can't go to the gig but even then they will probably ask for more due to alot of people at the gig probably wanting it

Sounds fantastic, I'll no doubt bump into Josy with her Shetland though so I might make it a miss

I've never paid much more than face value...you have to be prepared to walk away if they are being cheeky...maybe tours are just nicer up north?

Arctic Monkeys would be pretty ****ing far down on my list of 'examples that not all rock music is the same'.

go to Crufts. Who needs Alex Turner being a shoegazer when you can have miniature schnauzers running through hoops.

Jake.
23-11-2013, 05:04 AM
Well if I had realised that they were released Friday morning, I could have snapped one up for 55-60 quid, but I was too late lol, so I got one off of another site.... it's at Finsbury :)

..oh, you've got one then...I was going to see if I could get you a better price/for a very fair commission percentage....

Ah Ammi, you should have mentioned earlier, I would have happily given you 95 quid for commission....
