    Are you kidding? It's terrible.

    Probably a lot easier because I was looking for seating rather than standing - which is where the demand is - but it was a 10 minute wait and they popped straight up.

    Got a couple of tickets for my niece - she'll be delighted. Probably helped that they were seating at Phoenix Park but I surprised how much Ticketmaster's site has improved.

    Hello Ticketmaster, welcome to boards :D:):D (only joking)

    Galway sold out both nights. Managed to get three.
    How do you know they're sold out?

    He's managed to sell 320,000 tickets in a few minutes.
    Thats 27 million quid in a few mins (if tickets are 85 each).

    Its impossible to sell tickets that quickly on the Ticketmaster.ie platform ,especially full capacity venues due to no presale.
    Ticketmaster are up to their usual tricks.

    Same here, looking for my daughter and in a virtual queues which I was kicked out of and now in the ticket screen and searching for about 20 minutes:mad:



    Its fugging crazy. I got three tickets for family (who are all still in bed)to see this fella at a total cost of 263 euro. Only in Ireland.

    I bet its about half that in the UK.

    In the queue since ten to and after multiple errors I'm searching for tickets that were probably sold out 15 minutes ago.

    They should let everyone apply then pick people out as a lottery. There would be no messing with queuing on the website.

    Stick with it- as people get their their tickets they leave the queue from their other 5 open browser windows... middle rows of Dublin seating came up just now for me

    Yeah, I bet TM moved about 20-30% of them to Seatwave I'd say.
    Even though I said above that I got mine, I'm sickened at the way this whole set-up is gimping us.

    No, they are not. Their tout site is not selling tickets for these gigs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,588 ✭✭✭Awesomeness


    I just got tickets for galway. If your still in queue hang in there. Even if others are saying sold out


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,431 ✭✭✭Ivefoundgod

    Aiken Promotions just tweeted saying there are still tickets available.

    Thanks for proving the measures implemented for these gigs don't work.

    How do you figure genius? My hubbies brother in law got us our tickets using my hubbies CC and other details. Fair play to them for at least trying to stop the ridiculous reselling.

    Looking for my son's birthday, it'd be a nice surprise. Queing on phone and laptop - crazy stuff. No luck on app althogh it does out you out if your misery qquicker

    wondering the same, got to the select tickets stage 20 mins ago and still in the 'sit tight' stage, wondering should i just give up - but part of me still hopeful........just in case.......


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,231 ✭✭✭Hercule Poirot


    Missus just got 2 in Galway after waiting 42 minutes - don't give up

    I meant they are not putting the full venue on sale and releasing tickets in stages to create demand for extra gigs.

    The app was showing both Cork gigs as sold out at 9.04 ,which is frankly impossible.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,206 ✭✭✭jordata


    Just got 4 seated for Phoenix Park Friday - logged on and Q'ing since 8:30 and was about to give up!

    That’s before you get gouged by the hotels too

    Love that the hotel federation come out with such gems as “book early for best value”

    Yeah hang on lads and let me book the hotel before I even go through the torture of TM to see if I actually got tickets
