Having patiently waited to get tickets for the EV London shows @ the Apollo I was on the spot to grab tickets the second they went on sale, in fact there were three of us in the same room going for ticket! Did we get one between us or did the "bots" snaffle the lot? You guessed it all tickets were gone in two seconds of the sale and again true fans didn't get a look in.
The secondary sites had them for sale for 3 x the original face value two minutes later?
Why no pre-sale? And why do we have to pay stupid prices these days just to see the band we love?!?

    Sucks you didn't get tickets.

    There was a fan club presale though.

    EV solo tickets are the only shows I've had trouble getting tickets. The smaller venues mean less tickets but there is still high demand.

    Keep watching the ticket sites to see if there is a random ticket drop.

    Sure there was a pre sale?
    I've now got tickets to Fienze rock in Florence direct from ltaly... tickets, flights and accommodation is cheaper than the fucking resale site. Ticketmaster are a bunch of cockwombles!

    The UK government has been saying that it will combat these so called fake ticket buyers.. I just hope they do and do it fast
