Idioteque18 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 I'm so unbelievably nervous about tomorrow. Anyone know how many tickets are left? Specifically Saturday GA. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specifically Saturday GA. Cheers. I feel your pain! I would like to think that there are at least two thirds left across all days. My logic, twisted though it may be, is that the initial rush yesterday morning meant it was impossible to get tickets alognside so many die hard fans. Hopefully tomorrow, being more general, means it will be less of a bumrush all at once. Also, as it will be spread across Ticketmaster, Seetickets, gigsandtours etc. It will mean not everyone will have to wait in the god forsaken WASTE queue. Good luck anyway. I'll be right there alongside you hoping for a couple myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going for ticketmaster personally, got about 5 different people each with at least a phone and a computer trying to get just two tickets. Good luck to you, and anyone else!

Can anyone confirm this? I thought WASTE were only responsible for the presale hense the outsourcing to the external ticketing sites for tomorrow?

Idioteque18 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 I managed to get Stone Roses tickets earlier in the year, and that was near impossible. Even though the venue is much bigger *sigh* Anyway, here's hoping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcade fireman Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 I posted these on here on Wednesday but I think they've sunk a bit. I got all the tickets I need but if I was trying tomorrow I'd be targeting these pages, they're not publicly linked to yet: (I think one of you has gone over to atease and pasted it there by the looks of it though)... https://tickets.roundhouse.org.uk/booking/production/bestavailable/19851 Thursday https://tickets.roundhouse.org.uk/booking/production/bestavailable/19852 Friday https://tickets.roundhouse.org.uk/booking/production/bestavailable/19853 Saturday Have your credit card ready to copy and paste, have one friend trying one day and another the other day if you want to go two nights, open multiple tabs and just attack the page, close and reopen any tab that looks like it's not responding... Also if you're in Northern England/Scotland consider whether you want to go to Amsterdam instead. Will be a bit easier to get tickets, first night of the tour and considering tickets are £15 cheaper probably will come to a similar amount with transport and accomm. For the Amsterdam waste sale, tickets were still available at 0930 (as that's when I got my Friday tickets). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found out for other Roundhouse shows, each show which had tickets on sale had its own booking page with a 5 digit number at the end of the URL, as opposed to this: http://www.roundhouse.org.uk/whats-on/2016/radiohead/ which is as far as we can publicly get. I changed the numbers round a couple of times, found some shows which hadn't been put on sale yet, so played around with the combinations for about 45 mins till I found the Radiohead shows. At 9am, everyone will be refreshing either gigsandtours/seetickets (same company) or the Roundhouse website. But the Roundhouse site should have less load on it. The "On sale soon" button will obviously change to "buy tickets" at 9am at which point people will be put into a queue which will eventually lead to those pages I linked to, day dependent. If you refresh those pages directly, you may well still be put in a queue. But you'll theoretically get there faster then anyone who's had to click from the main page. If you're really lucky, it might be set up so you get to skip the queue by linking directly to the page, but I'd say the first scenario is more likely. If you keep refreshing it and you get put in a queue, immediately open up 4-5 tabs with the same link, as there's a fair chance one of them might get there sooner.

arcade fireman Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 If you have a friend trying with you, I'd still say it might be worth one of you having gigsandtours open, create an account with your name and address already pre-entered, log in and have your credit card number ready to paste. It's just one pool of tickets, and inevitably one website might be better than the other. I think all things considered Roundhouse website with the direct link will be better, but could be wrong.

That's the plan, I, among a few other close friends are trying through Ticketmaster for me, with my details all saved, and one of my other close friends is trying that direct link, i really do hope it happens.

arcade fireman Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) My order for two tickets was 143 quid on Wednesday.

I'm still 50/50 on tickets at the moment... £70 is an awful lot for a gig, add on top of that a train ticket to London and drinks. Also my friend is a bit meh about hearing a setlist which is entirely devoid of at least some of their hits, I think he may be a bit peeved paying £70 for a setlist of songs he barely knows I JUST DON'T KNOW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcade fireman Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Everyone's got their own financial circumstances, but if it's 70 quid you could potentially spend, as in there's other recreational things you could spend it on, then it'll be 70 quid well spent. Nothing like seeing Radiohead, except seeing them in a small venue. Premier Inns will still be bookable this far out, or even a night in a hostel would be cheap. Amsterdam tickets are cheaper (50 quid each), first night of the tour, easier to get and anyone coming from the North of England should really consider that as just as good an option as London as the whole trip would probably cost the same as a trip to London. But I guess from Hampshire London would be a better bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
