  1. So here's the thing: my sister got 4 standing tickets for the 10th, but instead of feeling elated and relieved that we got the tickets, I feel cheated and disappointed. 1. The presale feels like a joke. How is it a presale for Muse.mu members sells out within 2 minutes? Were there not enough tickets? Were there so many tickets already snatched by other ticket companies? Also, knowing that all Muse.mu members can queue for all presales is a bit strange to me. It makes more sense to keep it local. And I'm not just saying this because I didn't get the tickets 2. Ticketmaster.nl feels like a bigger joke than the presale. The same feeling came over me when we bought Pinkpop tickets: sale starts at 10.00 am, but if you're already there at 9.30 you get put in a queue, and basically at 9.31 you're already too late. Why not start the queue from 10.00 and make it fair? Now, we had 4 people operating 7 devices to get the tickets. One of us got through at around 10.05, and most tickets were already gone. We could only get single standing or two seated, and we needed 4. By the time we decided we would get single standing tickets, those too were already sold out, and we were redirected to "Seatwave" - an online marketplace for concert tickets, brought to you by Ticketmaster. Tickets were being sold for at least twice the face value. This bothers me, because Ticketmaster is, as are Muse, always hammering on that you shouldn't buy tickets from unofficial sellers, because then the prices get flipped and you pay a shitload and the artist still makes the same. WTF is Seatwave doing??? Even their service costs can go up to and even over 100 euros, and you PAY 4 EUROS TO PRINT YOUR E-TICKETS. As my sister said: "I can make 230 euros a piece off these tickets, I'm not sure I still want to go." 3. My brother-in-law suddenly noticed that a second concert was added on the 10th of March. My sister managed to get in line for that and got 4 standing tickets almost immediately. It took my 2 devices at least 5 more minutes before the 10th even became visible on the Ticketmaster frontpage, and by then everything was already sold out again, which makes sense. Anyway, /my rant. I still feel more cheated than happy about the 4 tickets, but at least we got them. The whole Ticketmaster debacle did reconfirm for me that I will never buy flipped tickets, because you're just getting scammed by the people who robbed you of your tickets in the first place. Peace.
