any
idea on the presale?
Been trying to find the ticket price and a pre-sale link for a while
Unfortunately haven't found anything yet though
It's gonna be so expensive :(
This thread is probably the best source of updates/price speculation: http://www.kanyetothe.com/forum/index.php?topic=383644.0
tickets for this will be almost impossible to get hold of
i'm guessing we'll see them going for around £900 at midday on friday
some places are saying £75
but others are saying £61-65
Seeing that I paid less than that for WTT and recently for kraftwerk, i think im gonna pass :(
i reckon that's worth it to catch him in a venue of that size
^this
his next gig at the o2 or whatever will be that price if not more.
Booked!
Was it 65 + 13 for postage and fees?
£77.75 in total
Yep.
Those fees are
FUCKING RIDICULOUS
Think I might have to pass
i really hate that axs system
Holy fuck.
I'm gonna try and get tickets- not sure if I can go, but I'm sure I would be able to offload them,...
Balls...
Had tickets in my basket then my browser crashed...
Horrendous prices. Fuck.
Can someone please send me a link to this...
cant seem to find it....!?!
Is SHE gonna be there?
wish they'd both go back under the rocks they crawled out from
£85
I'm out.
£70 for a ticket?
Obscene
Given current gig ticket prices
and the size of the venue, I really can't see that these are over the odds in price...
Just because this seems to have become to norm in the last few years
Doesn't make it right. I paid £35 to see him at the O2 in November 2008!
Oh yeah, I agree.
I just don't think this one is particularly obscene.
thats the o2 though. and it was over four years ago.
kanye is gonna be playing to 8,000. considering how many tickets will actually be sold and not given away to press and competition winners, they probably wouldn't have been able to pay his fee if the tickets were £40. not taking into account the entourage and shit loads of staging too.
I got offered a free one
Not going though.
</smug>
I think I paid ~£90 for front row for Neil Young at Hammersmith in 2008.
But that was Neil Young.
...
Good to see another multi-millionaire pushing ticket prices to their limit. Good stuff. It's a gig for those that like to go home with a nice badly recorded mobile phone image to never watch.
Golddigger
it's art
would love to go but too expensive :(
honestly would probably pay this if it wasn't as short notice/i had the time off work/could organise it,
considering i've been a huge fan for a decade, the SEVEN SCREEN EXPERIENCE (!!!!) like revel, abu dhabi and cruel summer etc. and masks would probably be worth it.
beyoncé next week, though. and then i'll save in case justin and jt do europe.
justin and jt :D
i meant jay and jt
Second date added
on the 23rd
£75 + high probability of it being a twatfarm =

If anyone wants to go to this...
I've ended up with two spare standing tickets for Sunday. Face value of course - PM me.
Anyone with 4xstanding tickets for tomorrow (Saturday)
Bit of a long shot but thought I'd ask!
Anyone go to this tonight or yesterday and wanna tell me what I missed?
Got a couple of phone calls/texts during it
Apparently he wore a diamond mask and did an EXTREMELY extended version of Runaway. Runaway is my fave song of his :(
he did the extended version of Runaway
at the o2 with Jay Z. total gash. heavy autotune with some awful fake ad-libbed Akon-style lyrics in it.
close to ruined that tune for me, and it's probably my favourite of his.
Well that was an eventful night
Started off brilliantly and angrily, with an array of brilliant costumes (a straight jacket, a diamond mask to name 2) but then lost momentum with that 20 minute version of Runaway which killed the atmosphere. Came back to do Touch the Sky and then threw his microphone to the ground and stormed off. Not sure if this was staged or not, his band hung around for a minute or so looking like they were expecting him to come back.
He did the
'throw the mic on the ground half way through a song' on the Saturday too, to finish. So it's just a thing he's doing nowadays.
went on saturday
it was exactly what i wanted from a kanye show - ridiculous and over the top
