Day tickets

[t8yman]

A f**k load of tickets got given away last year because ticket sales were piss poor for soni. Sure you can dress it up as pr boost or whatever but the amount they gave away was infuriating and reading the amount of tickets given away only seemed to anger people who had paid full whack for their tickets.

I remember the majority of people saying they wouldn't be in a rush to buy tickets for next year saying they would see what competitions and discount packages came out.

If I remember rightly...

Not crying, don't really care. I was just pointing out to Lithium and the few who smugly say "I'll just wait for my free ticket", they won't get it. And as for marketed everywhere last year, yes it was - but it was in it's first year (so had to go from nothing to something to be able to compete), and the free tickets were part of that push.

However this has gone greatly off topic so I'll leave it at that.

I guess the 'we're not giving away tonnes of tickets' stance is kind of like the 'we might not release day tickets' DL have every year. You know they will have day tickets. Simple as.

the basic facts are, if they dont get x number of attendees, they will have the stall holders coming to them saying "we were promised 45,000 people onsite, and there were only 30k, we want 20% of our fee back" which they would be entirely entitled to do.

if it doesnt sell, they still need the peeps onsite.
