  • London is also 6.30 pm (as there are two support acts)
    Can‘t believe you‘re getting Richard Ashcroft!

    Start time for Barca event says 9pm on the tickets. What time are the band likely to be on stage?
    Damn, really?!? I have a flight home at 7am the next morning. 
    If the concert starts at 9 pm, Pearl Jam might be on stage around 10 pm after the support act. The concert will be over around half an hour after midnight. It will take at least another hour to get out of the venue and from the nearest stop to the airport. Let's say you would be at the airport around 2 am. If your flight leaves at 7 am and you have to be there an hour or two earlier, you don't need a hotel. You can also rest for a few hours at the airport for free.

    Thanks. My hotel is the nearest one to the arena so will hopefully still get a couple of hours sleep

    This company is doing everything it can to create artificial shortages. On the other hand, they are also only selling the lower tier. Eventim the remaining ones. And if you subtract all the resell tickets, there really aren't that many blue dots left.

    I would be happy if Eventim would sell a few more tickets. So that the upper tier is also full. But maybe it's just too late.

    The split between ticketmaster and eventim will also add to the reasons, why Berlin will see many empty seats. When you go to TM to look for Pearl Jam tickets and you think that they are too expensive, you have no idea that there are lots of "cheap" tickets waiting at eventim.

    Exactly. This was also not communicated at all in advance. Before the presale there was only talk of Ticketmaster. And only when people got their confirmation email for the official presale, I think it was written in small letters underneath. Something about alternatively also available at Eventim. I can still remember how many people only went to Ticketmaster and said that there were no more tickets available. At the same time, the entire second and third tiers were available at Eventim. And some of them still are. 
  • axeljohanaxeljohan Posts: 460
    I think the reason for the split is that the band has an exclusive deal with TM for the European tour, but Waldbühne is owned by one of eventim's subsidiaries. So in order to play at Waldbühne they had to give eventim some tickets to sell.
  • A bunch of first row tickets just got released in Manchester. Or did I miss these?

    Maybe but twickets also have tickets now for the london show also, cheaper than anything on ticketmaster. Its a bit of a shambles really

    Has anyone else noticed that the number of tickets on their Ticketmaster app has doubled? I've now got 2 for each show but have only paid for 1. 

    Yup, just checked and same here, showing two tickets now but only paid for one.
    Either tickets sales are really bad and they give them out for free (I doubt it) or potentially the extra one is something to do with 10C early entry ticket?
    I don’t think it’s for early entry.  I also have 4 Frank Turner tickets (should be 2) in my Ticketmaster app for next Feb, so I guess it’s an error as others have said.

    Are people having issues getting their GA tickets for Barcelona to show up as listed when trying to sell? My friend has listed their tickets and even has the secure link to post and can see it there but when I go on the Spain TM July 6th date all I see are premium for sale even though if you hover over GA it shows a lower price.

    No. You haven't missed anything. They are brand new. This company makes me angry. These fuckers have held back almost the entire lower tier blocks 107, 108 and 109.

    Question about GA (Ten Club Lot), Berlin Night 1+2
    Do any of you know when the QR code will be visible in the Ticketmaster app? It currently says: "We are preparing your tickets."

    Aren't those mostly just people dumping spares now that they can be transferred? 
    Sadly, they're not going to shift those 500 level tickets even at £56.

    No bud because those tickets can still not be transferred and there are huge blocks of them together. These are new sales it seems

    anyone needing an extra standing for Manchester - I have one - please send me a PM

    Eventim sends out e-mails offering the last remaining tickets for Berlin („Jetzt die letzten Tickets sichern!“). 
  • axeljohanaxeljohan Posts: 460
    I laughed at the "better be quick" part of the e-mail. Still loads of tickets available for tier 3 at reduced prices. And at TM for tier 1 (still at premium prices - like they actually don't want to sell those).

    Hi all, 2 x rear standing for London purchased at £159.13 each when they went on sale. Registered interest via Tm and queued up like a good punter. Now I can't go and can't sell the tickets it seems, coz TM kep B**gering about with the prices. Be honest with me - what are my chances of losing £320 I don't have? cheers

    And Ticketmaster keeps on going. Some of the best seats in the house. Two weeks before Manchester, they come up with the idea of offering them for sale. For the regular price. For which some Ten Club members have been moved to the back of the arena.

    I wonder how many 10C Europeans are debating to cancel their memberships and just buy tickets on regular sales.

    It's a really poor choice of venue. Milton Keynes should have warned them but green disease has taken over with everything. Sad to see.

    I wouldn't cancel but it does piss me off that I requested seats and got floor standing for Manchester. Seeing whats available, is really disappointing. Another thing that still pisses me off was the registration bullshit. I was put on a wait list for Dublin, Manchester & London yet there are thousands of unsold tickets.

    I can’t believe how many tickets have just been made available for Manchester. The whole way the sale has been handled for this tour is baffling. If they had just had reasonable prices at the offset I would have gone to Manchester and London. I can’t get the time off work to do Manchester now even if the price drops and I have plans on the same day as London. I’m genuinely confused by the whole situation.
