    You can't, I'm afraid. They're closed to new users. I believe they were getting too many scammers, particularly around Taylor Swift and Coldplay

    Best bet is probably just lingering on Ticketmaster as much as you can for take tickets. There's two there now for the Weds

    Anybody any advice about Ticketmaster and accessing accounts.

    I logged in prompted by a reminder about a gig next Friday . Was told to update to a new password which I did . It authenticated and then proceeded to request an update again ..and again . After 6 gos I have given up and it looks like I am locked out of my account and all my tickets . No way to contact them ? Just useless FAQs and a bot.

    Imagine if this was concert night ?!

    Is this a scam or just usual Ticketmaster bollxx?

    Got it sorted ..rant over 😁

    It was usual TM bxx!

    However that question of what would you do if it was gig night is still relevant ..the site is so unreliable .

    Yeah, a complete pain, various issues with both the site and the app. Earlier in the year I was trying for 20 minutes to open the app - in the end I had to uninstall and reinstall it.

    Since then I save the QR code in Google wallet. Much more reliable.

    Edit to add: I really miss the good old days where you could have a paper ticket...

    Ticketmaster do give you the option of buying a paper ticket for most shows but it's about a fiver extra. Last time I did it wasn't so bad because it was a fiver for all tickets but not so great if you're only buying a single ticket. That was a while ago so it may be a per ticket charge now.

    Exactly . Can:t even manage e-tickets with any success now.

    I had to uninstall the app myself twice and last time it let me down I didn't reinstall so I guess this is my punishment 😁

    I will send the tickets to my partner-in -music or download to Google wallet myself in future ,

    3arena - Standing Tickets: is the specific use of entrance 1 and 3 enforced as stated on the ticket?

    I have two tickets in my account for this Monday's gig at the 3arena (Anthrax, etc). Both are standing, but one is for entrance 1, the other for entrance 3.

    What's the easiest way to get both of us in?

    It's not strictly enforce, can depend on crowds. I've got in from entrance 3 while my ticket said entrance 1. I wouldn't expect that you would have an issue.

    The other option would be to transfer one ticket to your companion, if they have a ticketmaster account.

    When you're looking to see what gigs are on in Dublin on a specific night is there a particular website that you use which has them all together?

    I also find the songkick app very good. For example, this is what it's showing for today...

    Jeez, Bryan Adams looks different these days

    I'm partial to your abracadabra,

    I'm raptured by the joy of it all.

    Thanks both, looks like the Nialler 9 one is better for the immediate week ahead with some details/views on the artist but the Songkick one is better for more long range planning.

    You can only filter on Ticketmaster for date ranges and locations. Not perfect but would give you an idea.

    Or if you're at the end of a row of people who are constantly in and out to the bar….
