Anyone know if it’s possible to get a notification for specific shows from Twickets? I am sure it is think read they'll have listings from the 2nd and sure you'll be able to sign up maybe |

Edit: although that's once resales start, so you may have to wait until then.

Because it's rare that the demand's that high I reckon If there's 1 million people in the queue they must've done the maths and realised enough of those will be willing to spend that kind of money If you do it for "normal" artists you may struggle to sell out gigs and if you do it by just 2-3 pounds it may not be worth the risk in terms of backlash and public perception? so why didnt they raise they prices at the start and make even more money they saw the server load from probs 8.30am and by 9 had those million so why not do it then if its just common practice to do? Because that's not how dynamic pricing works You set a starting price and then raise it as the demand increases and the offer decreases I'm sure they have some kind of breaking point and an algorithm that works it all out |

You try to buy tickets here and TM has the dynamic pricing on the second the tickets go on sale. It’s the reason I’ve never had good seats for Noel in the US they’re 350-500 each. Looked at tickets for Billy Joel and McCartney for parents at stadiums 500$ to get in the door. So I agree it completely sucks but blaming the band for it is out of line imo. Only bands I’ve seen get around it are the cure and Foos. Oasis had a ballot which was an amazing chance to beat the crowd and it was only probably the last 10% of tickets that got jacked up. ——Reminder about 10 days ago Oasis didn’t even exist! I’m sure we’ll see a ton of fan resale over the next year. well shannee seems to think differently to you |

TM obviously does both. Anticipate demand and raise prices as demand increases

No, I gave up studying economics after one year On a side note I may be wrong but I think americans have higher starting prices as well, which is why a lot of Taylor Swift fans prefer paying for a european holiday for a ticket |

Anticipate demand and raise prices as demand increases which happened today from the off the queues just go bigger and bigger and bigger so much so ticket master put a queue not to but tickets but to get on the site.. to queue for tickets so think the demand increased form 9-12 hugely |

No I mean to decide when to exactly pull the trigger with the switch in prices to get the maximum result (again, from their POV, I don't agree with all of this) It was in reply to "why don't they do it from the start etc" |

What obviously happened was Noel Gallagher found out some of you all owned bucket hats so he got on his desktop computer when he rolled out of bed and raised prices in order to personally piss you off. After all no sense building a new swimming pool if you can’t fill it full of cash 👌

After all no sense building a new swimming pool if you can’t fill it full of cash 👌 hes living the American dream. bet he still won't tip over 5% tho!! I got tickets in the presale at normal cost so personally im good. Just think the dynamic pricing in the uk isnt the norm and wasnt needed at all to rinse extra million onto of the 190 million+ then made anyways |

Anyone still updating the stadium map from time to time? Anyone is having luck? Or is it beating a dead horse now?

I think they have cut all? Or that's a problem with my phone? At the moment I can enter (I am using Chrome in a laptop). I kept updating for a few minutes and one seat popped up as available. Again when I was checking out I got an error message. No idea about why this happens. I would prefer that they close access permanently if there are no tickets because this way I keep trying and getting frustrated. |

Now the hard decision. Add more UK dates in June or starting the world tour with new dates?

I know we'd all rather think the band had nothing to do with it, but I am as certain as can be that they did. Bands are more involved in this stuff than many of you think, especially at this scale. Noel obviously wants as much money as possible as quickly as possible. And Liam probably does too, let's not pretend his eagerness for the last years wasn't substantially about paying for divorce and child maintenance, he's a LOT less wealthy than Noel, and a lot less than he should be for what he's earned in his life. Artists can say no, see lower down in this article Robert Smith saying he rejected dynamic pricing www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-64975160.ampIf you're disgusted with Ticketmaster, rationally you have to be disgusted with Noel and Liam. Ticketmaster are only giving artists an option they can take or leave. Like if your partner has an affair, should the other party get all your anger just for giving the option, or does your partner perhaps have something to do with it? |

"Oasis will not add any further dates to their UK and Ireland tour next year, following huge disappointment from fans who missed out in Saturday's general sale.
The Mirror can confirm that the 17 dates that sold out yesterday will be the only chance to see the Britpop legends in Europe before they head off to other continents"
Source: The Mirror
-----------------------------------------------
That's insanely disappointing, if so. I'm glad I bagged a Dublin ticket during the pre-sale, instead of gambling my luck, waiting to see if they'll play mainland Europe, closer to me.

Questions remain : will they make an US tour after the summer? It would probably push many Americans to sell their UK/Ireland tickets and help others (like me!) to see Oasis next summer. Another opportunity would be a continental Europe tour but that seems off the mark for now. Maybe 2026 but the feeling & excite ment would not be the same.

Well, then it's settled.
It's not for the fans, it's not for breaking any records, it's not to prove anything wordlwide
It's for a £ number - the least gigs possible to make the most money back for Noel's divorce
One tour round the world to collect entry tax and sell t shirts

If they wanted to make the most money, they would add some UK dates for sure since these are the biggest arenas they can fill. So maximum profit per gig. |

Why only 8 shows in London and not 48? Why did she only play 3 shows in Stockholm and nog stay for a full month? Always just about the £ number and making fans angry while selling t shirts. |

Wishful thinking perhaps, but I wouldnt take The Mirror as a fully legit source on this. After all, the S*n reported the total opposite.
Sooner or later the band will have to publicly comment on the situation and their plans. I’d wait for that.
