discounted tickets pre general sale for those who bought the april tickets - however it says ticketmaster will email you - but what about people like me who bought them in a shop? (i bought mine in stephens green sc booth - fairly sure they took mobile number from me at time)

i just rang ticketmaster, and they said that if you didn't buy it over internet or phone, then they couldn't send a code

apparently all the TM kiosks are franchised, so not technically part of ticketmaster....


if anyone has a spare presale code that they're not using, would it be possible to PM it to me?

schemingbohemia

me too!

theflesh

Would it possible for someone who bought tickets in April to pass on the presale tickets if they aren't going to this?

(I'd be looking for the presale rather than selling it btw)

Edit: Just saw posts above - I'd appreciate any presale code too!

They're doing a series of gigs in the UK with hot chip around the same time

wonder if its just Ireland they're playing without hot chip and whether or not we'll see hot chip playing a separate show over here

€40 is a tad cheeky, no?

Yeah it is more than I like to pay for a concert... but if you saw them at EP, you'd know they are worth every penny. Those who bought for the April gig(s?) get a discount price.

Oh, and if anybody wants to pass along a code as well, I would owe you a serious favour.

Phill Ewinn

Great stuff.

technogoblin

Anyone know what the discount is?

giggidyelmo

I'm one of those people who received an email but did not receive any code, is it being released tomorrow or should I start concocting conspiracy theories on why ticketmaster hate me again?

Gillington

If any of ye get tickets ahead of me,I'll hunt you down!!!!!!

honru

Would have liked a LCD Soundsystem/Hot Chip show.

Ben Hadad

I bought five tickets for the original gig, does anyone know if I can only buy my same allocation, or will I be able to buy more?

M450

My mate bought our tickets for the April gig and now he's off in South America I'll try to get in contact with him...

Do you think I'll have to log in with his account or something to get the presale or is it simply just a discount code I can get off him?

Anyone know how much of a discount yet?

As far as i know the link in the email brings you to a personalised page where you can buy tickets. Ticketmaster don't seem to be using presale codes this time.

Richy06

Bought mine in the shop last time too! If anyone has a spare presale code, please pass it on! It'd be much appreciated!

dsender

Lads, has anyone recieved the email from ticketmaster? I bought tickets for the last show online, logged in with registered account etc and still haven't heard a word.

Toast

Yes I got it. Here are the details. Maybe in your spam folder?

You appear to have neglected to post the rest of the email, including the link.

AAAAAAAHHH

I wouldn't post the link, since it seems everyone was sent a unique one.

Yes I think Ticketmaster have covered themselves on this one. I was joking.

boosh_fan

got some for the Friday. Vowed I wasn't gonna go see them again (think it'll be the 7th time seeing LCD :eek:) but couldn't resist in the end. Something to look forward to in November anyway!

Can someone send me their pre-sale link please ?

Now correct me if I'm wrong folks but I think the link only allows the person to buy the same number of tickets they had purchased for the cancelled gig.

So the link becomes redundant once the person has used it.

That's how I imagined they would do it but it doesn't seem to be the case. The links in the email I saw weren't personalised. They might look it as they have a long complicated address that mentions 'track' in it, but that's just their standard way of tracking clicks in emails (see the links to 'Visit our help page' or 'Visit Ticketmaster.ie' also have the same address format). Once you click on it, you get redirected to a short Ticketmaster address that anyone could type straight into their browser.

That's my theory anyway, although as it wasn't my email I don't think I should post the link.

theflesh

The other problem might be that they let anyone buy tickets now and enforce the past purchaser only and ticket limits later.

someone on another forum i use has said that there doesn't seem to be a limit on the amount of tickets you can buy, compared to your previous purchase.

surely this will be sold out before it even goes on general sale tomorrow so

dardevle

....


seems to be no limit -i only had 2 tickets for the cancelled gig and managed to get 4 from the priority link this morning- so i don't think there will be many to carry over at this rate... was'nt being greedy just picked up 2 extra for a mate who got his cancelled tix for cash and could'nt get priority.

I'm really looking forward to this one. It better go ahead this time.

*Looks towards Iceland*

Is the presale link for friday or saturday or can you pick from either ?

You can pick from either.

RobMcGov

Some one just post the link. I got tickets to the April shows in person so i didn't get a code. I can just imagine going into Stephen's Green ticketmaster tomorrow morning and Queuing for a couple of hours and not getting as has happened on several occassions in the past.

If the link is the same for everyone than for the love of god someone post it!!!!

Toast

Ok I've been kinda mulling it over about leaking the URL as normally I would in these situations. It is not unique and can actually be found fairly easily.

Problem is that the tickets are a fiver cheaper than the ones that go on sale tomorrow. If it leaks and Ticketmaster/Pod loses X amount of money on it will they go back and cross reference the sales to see if people used it legitimately or not? I don't want the blame from people who thought they were sorted for tickets only to get them revoked. Also I'm understandably cautious of doing anything to piss off Ticketmaster or any promoters. As such I'm not giving out the info but the info in italics will probably lead to someone doing it. I would just say be cautious using it.

RobMcGov

Come on, put up the link! The April gigs were sell outs anyway so how could ticketmaster be surprised if all the tickets sell out at the cheaper price?

If the link is posted publically I'd imagine that Ticketmaster will definitely cancel non-legitimate orders on it.

How could they cancel 'non-legitimate orders' if the link is just a general link and not an individual one. They wouldn't be able to distinguish between the two if the link is the same for everyone. Come on! I'll be your friend...

They only emailed the link to people who had bought tickets for the April gigs.

Matching the orders to the emails that they were sent to could be done with some manner of computer pretty easily I'd imagine.

Toast

Cross reference the details of those who buy with it versus the ones they have on file from the previous time? I'll admit it is probably unlikely but as I said I do not want to be responsible. The page specifically says it is for people who had tickets to the previous show. If it hadn't that warning I'd put the link up.

opr

Does the page specifically say it is only for people who bought them online or over the phone ?

Opr

electronic

its a bit mean if anybody posts the link in my opinion.the reason that there is a discount on the presale is because everyone who used their credit card to book tickets the last time only got refunded the face value of tickets not service charges that ticketmaster are so fond of adding on.i dont get paid till tomorrow and im hoping there will be some left by then

RobMcGov

I think it's 'Pretty Mean', as you said, that people that bought tickets in person or over the phone for the original shows won't get a chance to buy tickets to this one. Realistically, very, very few people are going to end up getting their hands on them tomorrow.

It's also a bit unfair that someone who bought one ticket to the April shows online can now buy 5 or 6 to the November shows!

it takes about 2 mins of googling to find the presale link.

Put a link up to the page you Googled to get the link then:P
