im going to see a band with no ticket hahahahahaha do you rekon i'll get one outside??

[boobesque]

oh yeah, if you are willing to pay in excess of �100 and buy what may or may not be a legitimate ticket. Ticket touts are not the most honest of people and not worth buying from

Lisa.... you can get severely ripped off or you can get incredibly lucky. It depends if you've got the money and the balls to take a chance.... xx

i bought tickets for the foo fighters on ebay, my mate took the chance to buy one off the touts and ended up paying less than me!! try and buy it for face value, after all they need to sell them

i've been offered tickets outside evcery gig i've been to. The cost, the quality and even the authenticity can vary from gig to gig and even from tout to tout at the same place. Get there early and be prepared to wait a long time to try and get a decent ticket at a decent price. Otherwise go with a lot of cash and definitely have a Plan B!

mostly I have found it to be pretty reasonable outside the gigs I have been to. Who is it Lisa that would give us a better idea?

It's the last chance to sell, so unless its a huge band its not likely you'll get ripped off. I have even won tickets at the last minute to a gig I already had tickets for, so I went along and kindly donated to a couple who were about to scammed by a tout. They bought me a pint and the fella even came up with a tshirt for me at the end.
