Just wanted to f**ckin rant.
Tried to buy Metallica tickets for the Hydro when they went on sale. "SOLD OUT" in a minutes... however 15 mins later they are all over the touts sites. Tickets were orignally £96 (which is a bloody joke to start with) but are being sold on tout sites for anything between £250 - £400. Its a scandal and pi$$es me right off. Dont get me wrong Iv seen them plenty of times live but I have never missed them when they have played in Scotland this will be the first time I have.
Its not just with Music gigs, big boxing fights are really bad for it also. Should be bloody illegal.

Was that the time Rolf Harris was the support act and they did My Brother Jake the Peg for an encore?

They are trying to get a regulation for ticket touting in Ireland. Fair play. Its an absolute disgrace.

I really feel for the old skool ticket touts who used to stand outside the stadiums rain,sleet or snow, dying breed to these faceless elecy touts, they will be going the way of the rag and bone man or that Italian guy who used to sing in the middens of the tenements and you used to pelt him with coins, aw the good old days!!

The problem isn't the touts, it's the cants paying 5 times face value for tickets.
If these wallopers didn't exist, neither would touts.
