brighton dome

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.

    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.

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