Normal pre-sale would be so much easier. At least that way we would be in with a chance and not have to use seatwave (who have tix already for sale!!).

I appreciate the effort to try to tackle the tout problem. Shame it was so poorly executed.

I don't see how they expected to tackle the touts with this system. Touts could just sign up to .mu and have as much of a chance at tickets as actual fans. Hardly any fairer than the usual presale system.

Hopefully they fix it for the Australian leg

What was the usual pre-sale, btw?

They should still only be able to get 4x tickets for only one show but I agree it's not flawless, but at least they're thinking about the problem.

For the stadium shows fans got a code on their profile page which allowed them access to the fan pre-sale, which was like a normal ticket sale but with a limited number of tickets.

Yeah, true, but in limiting the touts they've also limited the fans. They should have said only people signed up to .mu before x date would be eligible for the pre-sale.

It was poorly thought through. I know it's the usual comparison on this site but the radiohead UK pre sale was much better in the sense that it was a normal pre sale where you could only buy 2 tickets for one show and you had to give the name of both person attending. Those 2 names were on the email confirmation. On the day of the gig you need to bring the email and both person need to bring their ID to be checked and received their wristband in the queue.

It is restrictive but as a result there was 0 tickets on ebay after the pre-sale.

That sounds much more reasonable.

That's a bit too restrictive if you ask me.
