Total bullshit

I had seats for one of the LA shows. I got an error message when I tried to purchase them. The axs website couldnt handle the high volume. I'm beyond pissed.

Scalpers rejoice!

how can a band that is always ahead of the curve, always changing the way they do business and thus the way others do business, not change the way the sell tickets? IN RAINBOWS changing the way music was announced and distributed and purchased and priced. but the tour was through Ticketmaster and the scalpers made a fortune. TKOL was basically the same premise as IN RAINBOWS but more refined and minus the name your own price (cuz they're not in it for the money!) again tour through Ticketmaster and scalpers rejoice again. now untitled #9 is apparently heading this way, surprise announcement, weird way to purchase (bandcamp bittorrent newspaper edition? get real dudes) and set price (learned from IN RAINBOWS) AND GUESS WHO GOT THE TOUR!? TICKETMASTER. now the scalpers have already made more then RADIOHEAD has made. and guess what, once the album is out and the proper tour announced, scalpers get round 2! So again i ask how can a band that is so influential in all their undertakings still be doing business with Ticketmaster who basically is a place to create a secondary market designed to specifically hurt fans?

Dear Anyone who knows about the ticket details for the shows Oct. 3/4 in Mexico City. I was fortunate enough to of bought 2 tickets from Ticketmaster Mexico yesterday (Wednesday) right at 11am when the tickets went on sale. The question I have is my tickets are on the floor in section G7 seats 1 & 2. So that seems pretty clear right? However, when you call up the map of the Palacio de Sportivo for that event, the floor is only a green circle, no sections, or rows, or breakdown of any kind indicating where exactly my seats are. I'm encouraged in thinking that I have actual seats in the 7th row, seats 1&2, but that's an optimistic point of view. To test that optimism, I went to another event there (Adele) and looked at that seating chart, and for that show there are rows of seats in sections on the floor, like you'd expect to find. My question to anyone knowledgeable on this subject is, did I buy tickets that are general admission, with no seats, and a free for all, or are these reserved seats that I can count on being there for us? I even looked at the ticket broker sites for the Mexico city shows, and they list seats for (of course) big money, but show no seats details. So I'm confused about what I bought. Don't get me wrong I'm really happy that I have the tickets I have, since I got into the page to buy tickets immediately after they went on sale....but where are they exactly? Any illumination on this would be appreciated. Thanks/Gracias, Scott Mason

Why such a small venue in LA?

I'm really disappointed that they are playing such a small venue in LA.   The Shrine Auditorium only holds 6300 people, while in NYC they are playing the much larger Madison Square Garden.  It would be one thing if they also played San Francisco, San Diego, and Santa Barbara like they have done in the past.  As a long time fan I feel let down...At least add more dates to the Shrine dates guys!

C'mon guys!

"Demand for this event is extremely high. The event is nearly sold out, although tickets may still become available as reservations expire. Thank you for  your patience." does that mean I am beat?! or keep waiting. This virtual queue is terrible! never experienced anything like this. Please explain better!

Feeling let down

Three shows in the UK and they are in London, London, and, er, London. I am used to the Government being South East focused but didn't expect it from Radiohead. For two of us to go, assuming we managed to get tickets, would cost somewhere in the region of £300. Add to that the environmental impact of people travelling from all over the country to get to the shows, and it's hard to understand the thought process behind the decision. Radiohead concerts solely for the wealthy elite or those living in the south east of the country leaves a sour taste. Disappointed doesn't do it justice.
