Prime deal!

[Pinhead]

Pet Shop Boys new hardback book – Volume – is down to £23 on Amazon UK as part of Prime day!

[OakeyDokey]

No applause, us mugs all bought it at fully recommended retail price...

[Pinhead]

That’s true! I bought it thinking I was getting pre sale obscure tickets!! Just letting others know….by the way it doesn’t come with pre sale codes

[raggatwin]

yep full price and no sale actually needed for pre-access then spent months agonising over whether I would get a ticket whilst some greedy buggers had one for every night and were completely shameless about it.

[Pinhead]

Same as you raggatwin, how did “fans” end up with tickets for every night?

“Do you have a message for your fans?”

Reminds me of how can you expect to be taken seriously video for some reason!

I had my one night only, picked up the rest with completely legal re-sales, luckily!

[Vintage Youth]

There were loads of legitimate resales right up until the Friday night, some people bought two tickets and were swapping/giving/selling to friends etc. Some people were almost giving spares away on the nights because of last minute sickness/dropping out etc.
I got two tickets, one in pre sale and one regular sale. I had the opportunity to get more through friends/resale but I didn't want to overspend, I'm just scraping minumum wage and 30% of that goes on rent, I like PSB but not going to put myself in debt. Some could afford to go every night and I don't begrudge them at all, I personally wouldn't have had the energy for it, apart from anything else!
I would have bought Volume anyway but got it for the code, which never turned up, so I got it off the website.
Again, it's not something I'm going to get angry about.

And to add, I'm less annoyed by the people who went for five nights than I am the people who dragged their bored partners along, who would rather have been anywhere else, and the folks who yakked incessantly throughout the gig and couldn't enjoy a gig for two hours without constantly running to the bar and then of course, the toilet, but that's an overarching alcoholism/attention thing I'm seeing across nearly every gig I go to.
