chazwwe Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 My guess is that he'll add 2-3 shows extra for the other places, with a few extra in Wales and Scotland. As for the general conversation on 'would prefer a queue system.' Seeing the frustration that some people came out with on twitter in regards to this tour when they realised they were 100,000th+ in queue and knew they had to sit there until their spot opened, which some cases was 2 hours, to only find out that the show had been sold out. I would take the refresh hell we have every October/(november?) over that any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briddj Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Can confirm the Glasto 2 second Autorefresh using extensions across multiple devices got us the prime floor seats we wanted for March next year. Took 45 minutes to get onto See. Still refuse to believe there is any 60/min limit after we got Glasto and PK tickets using this method.

But just gone off what Google is saying, insane amount of people regardless! There’s got to be a massive chance he doesn’t even finish this! It’s so many dates it’s unbelievable.

I mean his previous biggest tour was 110 dates over a year and a half. This is more spread out so more time for breaks, he did 20 dates in a row in Manchester. He'll not only be just fine, but shows he could add in a lot more, in a shorter amount of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alvoram Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Holy shit, quick maths working to an average ticket price of £50 (average will be higher) this tour is worth over £1B in revenue??? one BILLION...

Good luck to him! It just looks like a lot of dates but I wasn’t aware of the size of the previous tour tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We (Me and my wife) think he has caring responsibilities and this is his last tour and the way they can make it work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't aware either and had no idea he was 'this' big until I saw the tour schedule and the nonsense of constant dates being added and the 'one show a month at the O2 for the next 2 years' He's the every day mans comic.

I never really rated his standup. His TV stuff was good enough though, Phoenix Nights especially. Mind you, I'm now more than twice as old as I was when I last saw him 20 years ago!!! Maybe I should rewatch, I might have grown into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kellsy_81 Posted November 13, 2022 Report Share Posted November 13, 2022 I missed out on tickets in the sale last weekend but i’m hoping to get lucky in the resale. My question is, I was unsure how to refresh the holding countdown screen when I was in it. I’m a bit of an I.T. Noob so didn’t press anything when I was on it for fear of doing something wrong and getting kicked out. I just let it do it’s thing and countdown from 20 seconds before refreshing automatically. I did try the F5 key on a separate website but this just seemed to adjust the screen brightness? Anyone able to help and let me know any tips to be in with a chance for the resale? I was reading that holding shift + F5 may be the answer. Any help appreciated 👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help appreciated 👍🏻 It sounds like your keyboard is like mine - the hot keys are set up the opposite way (they have two functions usually). Mine changes the brightness by default too, if I want it to refresh then I have to hold down the function key and press f5. You can change this in the settings, but I find it works just aswell to manually click refresh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I had a grip on the british comedy scene as I've watched quite a bit of the QIs, Taskmasters. WILTYs and the like, but then someone I've never heard of starts selling insane numbers. It's true I've never been too much of a fan of the "safe" comedy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's easily the biggest comedian in the country. Not that he's any good like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
