I'm all for preventing touting but you need to have a fair way of getting a refund or allowing a face value resale if circumstance means you cannot attend. None of that seems to be in place so you could end up with genuine fans being out of pocket through no fault of their own.

Nice idea but badly executed

If they want genuine people to get tickets then they should have a low cost fan club, fair priced tickets and they should play a decent number of shows across the whole country. They, as always, are full of warm **** rather than genuine action.

Yeah it'll still be next to impossible to buy decent standing tickets and the site will still fall over at 8.59am.

WOW. £71.50 a tickets or £52.25 for the vertigo seats and they have the cheek to put ridiculous restrictions on the sales. Tossers

£71.50 + ticketless ticket fee of £2.50! Suffice to say I decided against seeing them this time. That much money to see one band in a venue that size is madness imo.
