Dammit , I got caught with this too ..ended up panicking and bought poxy Davin stand tickets ,as it kept trying to sell me subscriptions and 300 quid tickets ...in the end took Davin lower ...really annoyed that the pitch ones went back on sale 2 hours later -
BBC Watchdog dealt with this in 2014..they showed exactly whats happening with Livenation ,Ticketmaster ,Viagogo ,Seatwave and Stubhub http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3Sn9kz60SZPXy0g0qCy2zk8/second-hand-ticketing Ony way this will stop is if the bands stand against it ,otherwise it'll get worse and worse

I encountered a few of the same type of fellas on the way back from the bar ...luckily being 6"4 and 16 Stone I was easily able to shove them out of the way ...met loads and loads of really nice people to make up for these type of eedgits though..was amazed just how many Non Irish were there last night ..usually at U2 gigs the crowd is so huge that I never really noticed it as much before but in The point things were so tight that I really noticed it ...and it was great ...Sent a few Spanish & Italian lads up to Bruxelles after the gig and met some americans and Brazilians in the Gibson afterwards too ..loads of "U2 in Dublin" bucketlist fans there

Dublin Shows 3 And 4 #U2ieTour Live Thread
redgavexile replied to Max Tsukino's topic in #U2ieTour Live Threads
Best Irish gig I've been at since Zooropa tour /Slane ,it was incredible.Crowd were bouncing and the band fed off them and vice versa.Gloria was stunning as was Bad and the whole band must've felt 100foot tall when One was sung back to them ....cannot wait for tonights gig Hope to Bono that someones made a decent bootleg of that gig ...one I need to listen too over and over and over.Great seeing the very prominent U2Start flag.Beautiful moment as well when Bono sung Ne Me Quitte Pas and the French Tricolours were held aloft -
Has Ticketmaster debited your account for Dublin tickets?
redgavexile replied to sugrue's topic in Dublin

Has Ticketmaster debited your account for Dublin tickets?
redgavexile replied to sugrue's topic in Dublin
Seems to be related to pre-sales tickets ..exact same thing happened me .got 2 GA's for the sat night in the public sale and was debited immediately ,but the pre-sale tickets only came off the card today -
Keep watching ticketmaster ..theres always a load of returns/credit card failures/touted tickets get released in dribs and drabs
-
There's rumours of one more for each venue doing the rounds over here..not sure Bono's voice can take that punishment but that rumours been on the go since before the summer ,that there'd be a total of 9 Irish dates
-
Rumours flying about all over the place (in Dublin) about another gig in the pipeline
-
I suppose I'm new too ..Been a member and lurker for years ,used be on some of the fan forums also. U2 fan since I was 10 (long time ago) ..first started listening in 83 or 84 as they really took off on the Cork circuit more than the dublin one . I used swap tapes with me mates and then snuck into Lark by the Lee after rumours spread like wildfire that they were due to appear ,old days things were far more lax at venues , and me and a friend got to see U2 play on a truck and I've been hooked ever since. My Gig Highlights were Slane / Zoo TV in Cork & Lovetown ....pretty special seeing Bono on Xmas Eve too playing with Glen Hansard and Damien Rice Favourite Albums - October / Achtung Baby
-
Anyone see the amount of tickets on this Seatwave site...how the hell can so many tickets for all the shows be up there already when they've not gone on sale yet ? No way can this be fans when half those sold were paperless ,the volumes on there ,they have to be via Ticketmaster Really annoying seeing so many for sale when there are so many fans left stuck
-
That's the beauty of TM..I rang them too and they said that pre-sale tickets don't count as part of the 2 tickets per household thing ..i'm even more confused now
-
anyone know what the story is with getting tickets for a second gig ? Will they cancel tickets if the same card is used to but tickets for a different night?
-
I assume they mean from a pre-sale point of view...I'll be trying for more tickets on monday with the same card for one of the other nights
-
Codes are up folks ..just no email yet
-
Oh by the way ,theres also going to be a Marquee tent outside the point for the aftershow party ...that'll be THE place to get into
-
panic is acceptable! yah thats the plan with the e-mail.. keep an eye on the TOURS tab too as well as here- the TBC's should change at some stage... Look at Ticketmaster site- see theres two tabs for each show- one the music generation (red zone) and it indicates that they are there for presale so I think YES... debatable I know about the cost but needs may dictate... seating plan if they keep it looks okish to me... if I'm lucky & I've a choice and the money I may have a lot of explaining to do tomorrow afternoon. Good luckCheers mate. Think atmosphere is better on the floor. Was at 360 2 nights. One on floor and other seating. Floor won hands down. Although the Point ( to give it its real name) could be different for seating Point is shite for seating ..its like a cinema.It was brilliant for Roger Waters Wall because lets face it ,that was a visual show as much as a music show but the big problem is the "sit down willya" brigade ...place gets inundated with them and you can be sure that one will end up behind you moaning and causing hassle all gig ...main benefits of the seating is the access to the bars and stuff upstairs ,you'll get served in double quick time ...access for a smoke is a hassle too ,having to all the way down and back again....standings the way to go

Can you IM me your email address and password and I'll check it for you Honest I will ;-) I'd say you'll be grand ...same happened with me

Thankfully I don't have the channel ...My TV only leaves the Disney Channel at 9pm ;-)

ahh cheers for the response lads ... Didn't know if it was a new email or not ,last one I got said it should be in my profile hence the panic mode .. Typing while Real thing plays on Today FM btw ;-)
