    Why are Ticketmaster selling so many tickets tomorrow (Friday) at 9am?
    Hugh Jackman, Paul Weller, New Order are 3 that I can see, could be more.
    Longitude then at 10am
    Could they not stagger the on sale times instead of having them all starting
    at the same time?

    I guess its a legacy issue so that people can queue up in the Ticketmaster agents and shops.

    The sales times should be staggered ,its an out of date policy to put all events on sale at 9am.

    The Ticketmaster website would cope much better with staggered sales times,but maybe Ticketmaster don't want that .
    They seem to prefer the chaos and madness of people panicking to buy whatever Ticketmaster feel fit to throw at them in the 9am scramble.

    They could have taken yours too I'd say with their dastardly practices

    Yep, hacked her into 52 pieces and then sent a service charge for digging the shallow grave.

    I have seen them listed amongst the most hated companies for very good reason.
