    You'll definitely be stuck with them, assuming you intend to sell. 250,000+ tickets is surely enough Garth for everyone and Sunday is the least attractive date.

    Why is sunday so bad?

    I don't understand though - if its sold out shouldnt they automatically lock out the option to buy tickets for Saturday and out a notice up for people in the queue

    It would take longer to sell out than you'd expect. Going by this thread messages were appearing saying it was sold out after 6 minutes, but it wasn't. However after 6 minutes if all the people in the queue bought what they said they wanted it would have been sold out so the system closed the queue. But because individuals are queueing in multiple tabs in multiple browsers on multiple devices they aren't actually sold out so the queue reopened. This happens multiple times during busy sales.

    this is madness, perfect internet connection

    2 laptops going searching for saturday since 8.58 and sunday since 9.30 and no lucky

    kept waiting 50 mins in my search since 8.58 for sat only to be told none available

    now on the other laptop my sunday search is running this last half hour and still stuck on 15mins

    hard to read folks ordering 10 tickets or 12 in total for both nights when i'm only looking for 2 :(

    I hear ya Strongbow - madness

    I don't agree with people buying tickets to sell for more but, you're talking sh!te here. So many people on here are desperate to get tickets and not getting them, with it looking likely they won't get them through TM now. Sunday doesn't make a blind bit of difference to those who might not work Mondays, or can get time off, or are die hard fans.

    Got through to the end of a Sunday queue said sorry no tickets available.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,126 ✭✭✭seosamh1980


    I swear to God if I do end up getting extra tickets (two of us now working on it) I'll sell the extra on for face value. Such a crap thing to do to buy up tickets and sell them on for profit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,189 ✭✭✭Dublinstiofán


    Still no luck, queueing since 8:59


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 560 ✭✭✭wesf


    One scumbag on donedeal says he has 18!! How do they manage to sell them if the tickets aren't posted until a day or 2 before?

    Finally! Got 4 tickets after waiting an hour.

    Hang in there folks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 235 ✭✭Bradz213


    if you have selected your tickets and are waiting, you will get them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,489 ✭✭✭Zardoz


    I hope that the GAA dont decide to build the stage up on Hill 16 ,like in the past .
    The stage is too high as a result and it diminishes the view for people standing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 452 ✭✭littlemiss123


    Are they still throwing up tickets?! No luck at all yet :(

    Varies really. U get them at least a month before. I already recieved tickets for an event in December


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,126 ✭✭✭seosamh1980


    Everyone saying they just got some and hang in there is trying to help I know, but it just makes me want to sulk :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭StickyMcGinty


    Single digit waiting time for the Sunday, come oooooonnnnnn!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 294 ✭✭Misty Moon


    And now "sorry, no matches found but other tickets may be available" and it offers to let me search for tickets on Sunday (I'd chosen best available for Saturday). Can't be there on Sunday but oh well, at least I tried.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators, Help & Feedback Category Moderators Posts: 9,893 CMod ✭✭✭✭Shield


    Aye Sunday seems to be completely gone now. Did an *any* *any* search and No Tickets Available... blah blah blah... I DID hear on Today FM that they have scope to put on 5 dates here if demand is ridiculously high though. I'd call that ridiculously high, don't know about ye?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 116 ✭✭Tupamaros


    Having a crack at Sunday now. Selected 'standing' rather than best available...may be a silly risk :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,356 ✭✭✭sunbabe08


    UM, i read that last text message wrong :o so i'm still waiting. ugh

    Wait until the week before the gig - Sunday will be on toutless for face value.

    Dont get caught up in the hysteria.
