Radiohead Broomfield

Broomfield was sold out before it went on sale this morning. Good job not letting fans be able to buy tickets. I'm not going to pay $200/ticket from scalpers (including the 1st bank center). What a shame.

Sounds like almost every city had an issue with tickets being gone in a matter of seconds..at least that is what it felt like. I was logged in and ready with 2 laptops this morning refreshing the page at the same time on both laptops. Got in on one while the other said there was nothing available. Best I could get was Section 122 which surprised me that there was no GA so I searched again and lost my tix. Tried again numerous times and again thankfully Section 122 popped up once more so I snatched them up. I really wanted GA but Section 122 is not too bad, it could have been worse. It is a shame that so many tickets went to scalpers and that so many fans will not get a chance to go to the show unless that are willing to pay the ridiculous price tix are going for on ebay and Stub Hub.

I have a feeling Radiohead is going to let this fly. They are really loyal to there fans, and i have a feeling they are going to try and remedy this.

tickets, help

Hey guys, 

 

My friend and I were trying to get tickets to the Broomfield show in CO on March 13th, and we waited in line outside the venue for over an hour. It sold out 6 people in front of us. We are super bummed and tickets are already going for $200. Let us know if you have any extra or can help us out because we both need tickets. Trying to avoid the stupid bullshit with scalpers. Thanks

Did any ACTUAL individuals get tickets for the Colorado show? No one I know was able to come even close to a purchase despite being on the site the second 10:00 arrived. I am deeply disappointed in the way tickets appear to have been allocated to "scalping" sites and resale- maybe not disappointed- maybe disgusted.

I am so pissed off right now.  I was there (online) the SECOND the tix were made "available"...and nothing!  They were all "gone".  Of course, I go to craigslist and voila!  There are thousands of tickets available at at least 5x the original price.

Believe me, I am not a cynic.  But I do know this can be done better.  And at least some of the blame, even if it's a tiny amount, has to go to Thom and the boys.  Yes.  They're way past the point where they need the system.  They don't need the system.  And they're supposed to be against the system, anyway.

And BTW, how in the world did some of you get pre-sale tix??  I visited waste-central and radiohead.com starting on Wednesday religiously and I never saw any tix available.  Where the heck were they?

Austin TX BROKEN SYSTEM!

The ticket buying system for the Austin, TX show is completely broken.  Was on the official purchase site and was locked out of any tickets by 10:10am.  Kept trying for 30 minutes and site kept saying "cannot secure tickets".  Went to Google and found this site http://www.ticketliquidator.com/tix/tickets.aspx?evtid=1770325&utm_source=google&utm_medium=ppc&utm_content=Radiohead+Austin

with plenty of good seats for between $149 to $235 PER SEAT.  This is absolute BS.  I feel sorry for the band who is trying to do the right thing, but obviously the official ticket seller, Texas Box Office, sold tickets to re-sellers before selling to customers.  This is certainly not the contract that Radiohead made with Ticket Box Office.  Truly pathetic.

Ticketmaster vs waste

I was wondering if you already bought tickets on the pre sale for waste if there would be a problem if you bought more on ticketmaster. Like would you get your tickets taken away if you bought more than 4 from the separate sites?!

Austin

Wow that site for Austin tickets was pretty messed up. But I got two wayyyy in the back of the arena. Better than nothing, but still, a brutal site! All tickets sold out in 20 minutes I think.

Broken, WTF

The ticketing system is badly and sadly broken.

 

Am I the only one upset with the state of the ticketing system? Can't be, right?

 

On-sale for US dates began at 10am this morning. Of course, tickets were difficult to secure. Expected...no worries. BUT, how the fuck do thousands of tickets land on secondary markets sites (such as Stubhub) in under 30 minutes? That is not collective of all dates, folks. That is an example of a single show. I'm really confused by this occurence. How is it possible that so many tickets have landed in the hands of those not interested in attending? We are all victims of a very ugly, greedy, corrupt system (general societal perspective and event ticketing market).

 

Fuck scalpers. Fuck the system. I'm sure this can be done better.

 

Apologies to those who purchased tickets then promptly recalled a conflicting prior engagement. And, congrats to those who secured seats at face value. We both know you're in for a treat :)

 

Oh, and if it wasn't made clear....scalpers, go fuck yourself.
