1 million searches.....


followed by 995,000 cries of 'how f**king MUCH???'

Out of 80.000 tickets for four shows, most are probably still available tomorrow (and days to come, little by little).

So their is quite a gap between 1.000.000 searches and maybe 10.000 purchases so for.

Those Wallet raping bastards at Viagogo where charging 14999. Euros for a pair of seats yesterday.

I stood in the rain on 12th July to catch a glimpse of this band on their anniversary. I guess that was the end for me.

I'm not ranting about original ticket prices. I expected £300-£400 this time. It's the fact that normal fans have been frozen out of the good seats.

How much trouble would it have been to ask for ID and credit card to be presented with,say standing tickets and front 5 A blocks. Would have still sold them all, but frozen out these blood sucking leaches.

I can't stand tiered seating. Hope the PPV is good.

You are so right, sc uk. But don't give up yet!! You still have the same chances as the next person tomorrow - and otherwise if you play a waiting game the likelihood is that you'll have the last laugh on Viagogo and its fellow scumbags.

Viagogo didn't handle Led Zeppelin's O2 show obviously.

I'm good for 1.000 searches like 500 other people on this board...That's already 500.000...so BS story

Funny they didn't say how many they actually sold from these searches.Not many at those prices.

That's a cheap way for that website to get a ton of press.
Nobody will check the numbers.

I didn't realize Brian, Ian and Bill were going to be there. No wonder everyone is so excited!
