Concert Tickets
There’s nothing like the excitement of live music. Event the best digital mastering on a CD or download can’t compare to hearing your favourite track belted out live over a sound system big enough to shake your very soul!
If you’re a fan of concerts and live music you’ll no doubt appreciate that while the concert itself is great fun, finding and securing the tickets to see your favourite band is anything but. Rushes on ticket releases, server crashes, service fees, credit card fees, touts, scams, delivery problems. These are all common complaints of concert ticket customers.
While we can’t cure all those ailments we would offer the following advice for anyone looking to secure concert tickets safely and cheaply.
1. Stay up to date with your favourite band and sign up for email alerts to find out when they’re going on tour and when tickets will be released. Se your self a reminder – tickets usually go on sale at 9am.
2. Get a list of the official ticket agents. Don’t rely on Google for this. Instead go to the bands official website and they should list the official ticket sellers for their concerts
3. If you don’t manage to get hold of the concert tickets you want when they’re first released instead get yourself onto one of the verified ticket exchange sites for sold out tickets like Seatwave or Viagogo who guarantee tickets brought from other fans.
That’s good advice. I missed out the last time Bruce Springstein was in the UK but as soon as I found out he was playing in Manchester in June I made sure of them and booked online as soon as they became available.
