Tickets went sale today. Despite Ticketmaster selling them through their “verified fans” program, purchasing was a complete clusterfuck. Repeatedly I went to the purchase screen only for it to return an error or time out.
Hello darkness, my old friend
One time I got as far as verifying my credit card on great seats only for it to kick me out and make me start over. Ticketmaster never fails to disappoint and infuriate. I eventually ended up with crappy seats, but seats all the same. As of now it’s completely sold out in my area.
The upside? Tickets were fairly priced, and no Ticketmaster dynamic priced “platinum” ticket price gouging.
When I bought Skinny Puppy tickets recently they were pretty cheap - like $50 after fees, and then there was so much demand the show got moved to a larger venue. At first prices were the same, but after demand went up, everything got converted to platinum prices and many were $300 and up.
As always, fuck Ticketmaster.
