Very much not normal to be selling out this quickly - GM 2019 sold out in May while EOTR held out until July. They did put the payment plan tickets on sale this morning, which EOTR don't. GM's tweets in this thread are, um, interesting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just paid the deposit on ours to make sure we didn't miss out. Absolute madness how quickly these and GM are selling. I guess some of that is because of 2021 rollovers. Some for people who didn't go this year because they were still worried about covid. Then others who normally only go to Glastonbury but went to EOTR or GM this year and realised that actually other festivals do exist!

Glad to have bought a tier 2 ticket in the eotr deposit scheme. I suppose there must be quite a few roll over tickets from this year due to covid/isolation that will reduce the number available. i’m just trying to push a couple in our group to buy their tickets soon, just in case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepingTheNation Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 Actually I'm a little surprised EOTR didn't announce anyone for 2022, given Pixies and Bright Eyes have already rolled over their other dates but also that when the postponement was announced they confirmed six big names had agreed to come back in 2021 straight away, albeit only two actually played. Maybe they don't want to get caught out that way again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only think the strategy is to to sell the tickets to the hardcore fan base first (who'll buy no matter what) and then line up the strongest first announcement they can to find some new people to sell to.

Was planning on waiting until pay day next week, but fear of missing out has forced me to book early. I would have been gutted to miss out after attending the last 14!

killyourtv Posted September 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 Finally did my short diary entry for EOTR on my own blog (mainly about pubs to be honest) and felt sentimental already.

mario man Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Another panic buyer. After GM selling out yesterday I don’t see these hanging around for too long. Amazing they are on final tier already! Anyway ticket bought for next year and bringing my best gig friend for his first visit. I’m one of the few actually hoping for the Pixies again! 😬 Edited September 17, 2021 by mario man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they're not as good as they were, but at least half of their set will be the classic old stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it's been fine. and sometimes it's been rip roaringly fantastic... I couldn't tell you what differentiated one set from the other though!
