Just spent the last hour trying to buy two tickets to the Nashville (yeah, yeah, I know) tour @ the Brighton Dome.
Couldn't even get on http://brightondome.org/ till 10:50 (tickets on general sale @ 10:00) as high traffic.
Just five tickets left and none together. Looks like you have to pay £30 to become a member to gain access to the pre sale to get tickets for anything these days. I tried to get Fleetwood Mac tickets @ the O2 last year and 22,000 "sold" out in 30 seconds- just how do you do it these days?
Why are they booking small venues, they should be across the road @ the Brighton center which is larger, do they not realise they are missing out on revenue? I am disappointed.

Don't worry, I'm sure you will be able to buy any amount at 10 times face value from the usual online touts.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0

I follow a couple of the actors/musicians on Facebook and Twitter.
They put up the presale info a few days ago on their pages.
So you do not need to pay anything to get the presale, just follow them on social media.
Not going to this tour, but I went to last years.
It was good, but a few too many of their own songs and not enough of the show songs in my opinion.0 -

Coolio. I'll look out next year, thanks for the tip. Still can't believe the whole theatre was sold out in minutes.0
