Manchester Gig sold out and I missed out

#1 Post by beastman »

gutted as I normally get an email from PSB/EMI but didn't get jack from them - only found out via ticketmaster and by then it ways too late - As it sold out so quick I wonder if they will do another date - if anyone has one or two spares please let me know!

It seems ludicrous that it sold out before it was officially available .... :shock:

I'd imagine we'll see some dates later in the year seeing as the demand was so great.

Apollo not the biggest venue it has to be said - if the standing and seating is at capacity it's probably around 3500 or thereabouts.

EDIT - Lucky guess (just checked on Wiki and it's 2514 standing, 986 seats).

There is nothing booked at The Apollo for 17th June should they decide on an extra date.

Ebay is already flooded with tickets to the two concerts.
It really is shameful that there are so many people out there that see concerts like this as a way of profiting from proper fans. I cannot believe that ebay has the right to sell tickets like this and surely there needs to be more laws to prevent it. Amazing that these scum touts can get away with it, do people not have any morals today?
Greed is king.
