    Tickets due to go on sale this 10 am morning for Prince Solo gigs in Glasgow, London and Birmingham. Ticket sales postponed just before 10......Twitter meltdown by fans !

    Price range is €60 - €187.00 ! Was hoping to get a couple for Glasgow :(.

    Postponement might have something to do with Seatwave (subsidiary of TMaster) offering tickets at €2000 a pop at 9am this morning!

    Such a disgrace.

    Tickets on second hand sites before they even go on sale shows just how corrupt the ticket selling market is.

    I've an acquaintance who is a tout and has a contact within a reputable ticket selling company who is able to source him tickets before or just as they go sale so he gets loads of tickets to sell on. I haven't heard from this guy in years about it but that's what he used to do and probably still does.

    It's an utter disgrace. The only way forward is to enforce ID/credit card/ticket matching across the board but it'll never happen.
