Muse ticket selling day, nothing beats waking up dead early and battling it out with loads of musers to buy tickets. For those who’ve been living in a cave all their time or havent been using a decent feed reader, Muse have been announced to play at the Royal Alert Hall for a charity gig on April the 12th. It’s been some good months since Muse toured in Lundun so it will be good to see them again.
Ticket buying is pretty much second nature to a regular gigger so it will hopefully be a breeze buying tickets, problems only arise when you start buying tickets in groups and stall tickets are either not an option or they’re sold out. The problem is when companies have no idea of demand and server loads when people are all rushing in and buying tickets all on the same time to ensure that they get to see their favorite band. Definitely a bad call to release all tickets for the event (it spans out to a few days and includes a nice array of performances ranging from comedy to good old ROCK). I’m very sure that the server will not cope with the load and cause loads of people panicing and further adding load to the site by continuously refreshing their pages, oh yeah.
Anyway, the best method I would recommend anyone is to simply buy the tickets at the venue. You have no idea how stressless it is, buying Radiohead (lol?) tickets was fun when you were the first ones in the queue and knew you were guranteed for standing tickets, you also get your tickets in hand too!
