Everyone on Twitter who got the £50-ish seats has also said they're back row. It's insane, it must be literally one row of those seats and then everything else is £100+. Really worried this will inspire other artists to think they can get away with the same as I'm already sick of only being able to afford the upper tier of the O2, I'm not being cast to the back row permanently because I won't pay three figures.

Many thanks for that - just bought 2 standing tickets right up near the stage (GA Floor B) for a grand total of £251.  After trying for the O2 earlier this feels like an absolute bargain!  Was gonna need flights and accommodation in London anyway, so may as well have a nice weekend in Stockholm instead.  Very happy - Thanks 😊👍

I had a look at Stockholm for Madonna.  £126 for standing around the stage, and the same price for the best seats...

There are wider questions here around why the same basic seat is three times more expensive in this country than it is in Sweden.

Indeed.  Not expecting all countries pricing to be the same, but 3 times as much!  Disgraceful practice

I had tickets in my basket this morning for Sunday at The O2 for £430 each (incl fees) and just couldn't justify it.  The tickets I have just purchased were £125.50 each (incl fees) and are roughly as close to the stage.  The only other difference was the O2 tickets were seated whereas the Swedish ones are standing (which I prefer anyway!)

    • Sadly, the ticket map below screams rear 5 blocks not on sale or never have been on sale. Especially when you look at the blue blocks with rows of unsold tickets.   And I say all of this as a big fan of Muse.  
    • Personally, I don't think there will be any changes to the queuing system in place for the 2025 sale.  GFL will be aware that true bots are a risk, but they may also see large collectives of organised folks running multiple devices, containers or profiles to get an advantage as bots themselves, and then struggle to know where to draw the line without penalising folks who are simply more on the ball than others.   They will also be acutely aware that engineering tech to close those gaps will cost, and therefore eat into the money they are able to pass to the Charities, without passing those costs on to punters in the ticket price, which they will be cautious of doing especially after a 2 year break and the inevitable media coverage that will get.   This may all be naive and overly trusting of me though.....
    • went to their album launch show last night at the george tavern. it was fantastic! absolutely roasting in there though
    • I got mine yesterday but they sent the wrong ticket link, so had to email Ticketmaster and get the right one.    As for predictions, hard to see who else could do the Pulp/Sting/Byrne slot other than the Cure, and since they did Isle of Wight they maybe have an FR deal (Sting did both). It’s also the Cure’s 50th next year so imagine they’ll be doing a bigger tour. Pet Shop Boys or Kylie maybe?   Wolf Alice would be a dream. It’ll probably all be men again though. 
    • Probably a couple of months yet....last ticket sale announcement was 10th October 2024.
