Help!!!!! So I bought a pair of tickets off Ebay for Radiohead in Toronto. The tickets are from "Live Nation" and not from Ticketmaster. I've never purchased tickets from Live Nation so when I opened the package and saw these strange looking tickets I started to get a little freaked out.

So did anyone get their Radiohead tickets for Toronto Aug 15th from Live Nation? What do your tickets look like? Was I burned? Help please.

    Live Nation were doing some of the shows I think. Check their sites. You probably wouldn't find a mistake like that on a "real" counterfeit ticket.

    The show is a Live Nation show. My concern stems from the fact that I've never seen a Live Nation ticket, plus the tickets don't have a perferated edge on either side, so they look as if they were cut. I'm pretty sure they are fine. Like I said I've never had Live Nation Tickets and without the perferated edge they look not quite right.

    I think you should be ok, they were sold on Live Nation as well as ticketmaster.

    LiveNation tickets look a lot different than TicketMasters.
    I would be wary of the paper TicketFast tickets. I saw a pair denied at the turnstiles at a Radiohead show. The gal was in tears, claiming she had paid 800 bucks on EBay.
    Life lesson **Hopefully* learned.

    NEVER BUY ticket fast printouts from resellers
    live nation does sell tickets now, so that is not surprising.

    I've had plenty of Live Nation tickets...you should be fine. They're red, right?

    Yes. They are red and white sort of like a Canadian Flag. I'm starting to feel better about the tickets, but I won't know for sure until they scan them on the day of the show.
