fkme, £300 for a stadium gig down the front. Three hundred quid.

Or £170 for a decent view, and £100 for an alright view. That's absolutely insane! I've always thought the sound at hyde park gigs is crap, its sworn me off returning there really, what's it like at Anfield?

Amex presale is on now too.

No sign of any 'lucky dip' tickets on the Amex presale - I don't have an Amex card either. Looking at that seating plan, and the way I know Anfield, I would argue some of those £80 seats (Kop End) are better than some of the £100 seats. The 'M' seats you get the comfy chairs though! 😂

Bought three £80 tickets, eight rows into section 205 in the centre of the Kop. The row in front of this photo but a bit more central. Nine rows further forward would have been £130 each.

Thought they looked better than some of the more expensive tickets but I've never been to Anfield, so really pleased to hear this!

Doesnt really apply to the uk as badly as the u.s He barely scratched the surface. Wish he had called out dynamic pricing and platinum.

Doesn't apply to Glastonbury but it certainly applies to the UK (but maybe not as extreme as the US... yet). Live Nation own a good chunk of UK music festivals.

Ireland recently banned the practice of reselling above price (albeit I'm nit sure how effective it will be, time will tell). Other countries should follow suit.

The platinum & dynamic pricing stuff is awful. I work in sport and have seen it happening first hand in the background. It's the pits.

I mean, isn't Eden Project a pretty cool location tho?  Better than just another arena or academy show ain't it

Pain in the arse to get to though isn't it.

It probably is, yeah, I just can’t be arsed with the travel down for it from Manchester.

From what we’ve been told in the European festival section it sounds like they’ll probably do European festivals next year (most likely including APE and Primavera), so I’ll just hold out.

Should just do Castlefield Bowl imo. As should LCD Soundsystem.

    • I'm surprised they risked it, especially after nearly missing their Glasto 22 slot under similar circumstances  I did see someome say Ellie didnt sound as strong as recently but I'm guessing playing 3 shows in 2 different continents doesnt help that    On the topic though I can definitely see them doing a Fontaines and having a break over winter before a few final Clearing shows next summer 
    • That's fair on WA - I did recall people thinking Fontaines would take this year off before this was announced.    On the subject of Wolf Alice, they did Lollapalooza in Chicago on Saturday then Kendal Calling last night. Bit of an odd choice, no? Half imagine at Kendal that they would've been just exhausted.
    • Just logged onto the app to start planning my days and there really are a LOT of stages missing. Apart from the Seaside Stage there is no Casemates this year etc. Apart from the Seaside Stage, there are no Casemates this year, etc. Can't see anything about the kids field really. And there's local acts that are normally there like Kojak's Revenge that aren't appearing either.  Normally we get down fairly early but I can't see anything before 3pm I'm keen to see. Only one real clash as well, which is good, but it's thin and it's not thin in the sense of "I've seen a lot of these acts before"
    • Lifelong Carlisle United supporter here.🤦‍♂️ Good luck for the coming Season and see you in October!
