 Posted: Fri May 14, 2010 10:16 am Post subject: Liège is sold out ! |
|
|
Liège is sold out people  I went early to the Belle Ile ticket outlet and there were already some 20 persons queing. The lady managed to pull out 10 tickets or so and her system broke down after 5 minutes. Rushed to Caroline Music where they had a stock of 200 tickets in hand and the guy two people before me got the last three ones. Bolas Bug had only 50 tickets. No idea about Media Markt.
I am really pissed right now. 
If someone has a spare ticket to sell at a "reasonable" price please contact me

Expected something like that - a bit too quick to organize in a proper way I think -

Not "too quick to be organised in a proper way".
The message was clear: only 700 tickets available and priority to the locals !!!
Sold out in 5 minutes time but managed to get my tickets thanks to an angel !
Yahoooooooooo
BUT... it was clearly predictable... private gig for 700 persons when they headline the greatest festivals in Europe such as Werchter and Pinkpop... probably the gig of the year. Looking forward to be there!
Sorry for the ones who won't be able to attend/managed to get tickets. |

Ok 700 tickets - 4 or 5 selling points - too bad you if picked the wrong selling point where there are only 50 tix or so available and in others 200 : ask myself if there was a limit on who much you could buy (if not long live the black market ) - you see why I mention : too quick to be organised in a proper way

No I saw people at Caroline Music coming out with several tickets in hand so clearly there was no limit.

Thanks Yipman. Just got back from the Belle Ile ticket outlet where the lady confimed me she sold respectively 3, 15 and 20 tickets to the first three in line before her system broke down. So clearly there was no limit.

Wouldn't be surprised that they're not on ebay yet
Just had word from some lovely forummers on here that they managed to snatch two tix for me and my wife : BIG THANK YOU
they confirmed that it was absolute chaos overthere : sales began too early - people buying multiple tix and a lot of pushin' and shovin'

So in a way you are glad that people were allowed to buy multiple tickets

Well they bought 4 so I think we can say that's in the limits
I heard some people bought 15 or 20 - and some people left the queue when they heard you had to leave your name-adress and if I'm not mistaken contact phonenumber

I didn't get tickets! that's so unfair!
Someone went for me this morning at the mediarmarkt to buy me tickets, he was the 5th person there! And Mediamarkt didn't sell any tickets!! it was already sold-out! How is that possible? I guess that some people who work at MM get tickets for them! I'm sure that we'll find a lot of tickets on EBAY very soon with enormous prices! So unfair for the "real" fans
PLEASE IF SOMEONE HAS 3 TICKETS FOR A REASONABLE PRICE, JUST SEND ME A PM! I'm freaking out right now!

This is insane, they should have gone for an online sale, with a 4 ticket limit. If this were in The Netherlands, they'd probably put a 2 person limit on it, maybe even one.
At the melkweg, when they have these special gigs you can only get one ticket, at the melkweg box office. you get a wristband on and access to the gig is only with the wristband + ticket in order to avoid such a mess.
I'm so pissed off.
