I see they put up a new post yesterday called FanFair Alliance Guide. We have seen how Mark decries ticket scalpers and others that raise ticket prices beyond what most of us can easily pay. Anyway, there is a new online guide about buying tickets that may be worth the download. Here is the article, but you have to download the guide from his site.

Yes, it seems Mark has joined up with other high profile artists, like Ed Sheeran about this issue, and it is something I have had an issue with. Earlier this year I tried to get tickets for my wife and I to see Phil Collins at the Royal Albert Hall, Phil being a favourite of hers, and I like his songs too, they were due on sale at 9am, and I was ready at 8:50, so at 8:59 I started to try and buy tickets, I kept refreshing my screen, and just after 9am it said they had all sold out!!!!!! really? so I tried another date, they were sold out, another day, same response. So, I could not get any tickets, this situation is really annoying, I hope the government steps in to resolve this for the normal paying general public. |

There should just be a simple rule and which could be applied for everyone with easy (and no exception) - an ID could get ONLY one ticket! And it would be easy controling it, something like a voucher. If there would be two or more tickets under the same name (ID) it would be shown imidietally. |
