If they hadn’t put dynamic pricing on, this all would have been avoided.

The booking agent and selling agent sign this off and the ticket agent enable it .. I actually think the system went into error .. them gigs technically sold out with about 15 minutes

As Liam famously remarked at the infamous iTunes Festival 2009 gig, you pay peanuts you get monkeys.
I presume there won’t be any monkey business next year, then.

I never skip She's Electric. I don't listen to MG as a whole much these days, I usually listen to bootlegs / Familiar Too Millions if I want my Oasis fix. I wouldn't skip Hey Now but probably would skip She's Electric unless I had specifically put on MG to listen to all of it. Just to really upset people, I almost always skip Digys's Dinner. Digsy’s Dinner is great. Fuck is wrong with you. Hey Now is a snore fest. Although I do like the verses. She’s Electric is okay, take it or leave it…. Americans seem to love it though.

If they hadn’t put dynamic pricing on, this all would have been avoided. I agree. I think the general price seems high, but so are all the overheads. I'm sure Wembley stadium is a lot more expensive to hire than it was in 2009, as are all the security companies, logistics, council fees etc etc etc. All this is factored into ticket prices today. No doubt artists are maximising their ticket prices, but it still costs a lot more to put a concert than it did. So I think people accept the advertised ticket price and make their mind up based on that. It's a real kick in the teeth when fans are about to buy tickets and suddenly the price has jumped up 200 quid simply because of the demand. It's gonna do nothing but anger people. I know the band has to opt out of dynamic pricing, or at least the bands management. Obviously they never did. Whether Liam or Noel even got asked to is another matter. Would they give a shit one way or another? Probably not, they're gonna sell out anyway. I doubt they give a shit that John from Stoke had to pay a hundred quid more than Darren from Hull.

Liam and Noel. What do you think they can do about this really? They are not working at Ticketmaster are they?

The atmosphere around this isn't quite on the mark, at this moment.
The return of Oasis should feel like a party!
Give me some interviews with the brothers! Give me recreations of classic photoshoots! Make it seems like there's a feeling of communal fun and effort driving this, rather than monochrome frowning pictures and fleecing your own fans. At the moment, it's a bit "Your Low-Effort Nostalgia Cash-In; Brought to you by Sara MacDonald".

At the moment, it's a bit "Your Low-Effort Nostalgia Cash-In; Brought to you by Sara MacDonald". Yeah it’s gone a bit flat. Could do with something positive over next few days. Wonder if they genuinely aren’t going announce any further uk tour dates or they are trying to sort the dynamic pricing out. They will want to keep publicity rolling this week to get DM as high in charts as possible you would think. I’d be worried if no more tour dates cos that would suggest to me they really can’t stand each other

I don't think it'll reach number one, but a new peak would be nice. Stream live forever if you're in the UK

It's too late, they all ruined the party If the brothers come out and address the Dynamic Robbery fiasco, and then we get some good interviews/promo this week, everything will be fine and good. Something needs to happen, though. Surly-faced pictures and radio silence is not the vibe.

Ignition management, with their awful PR, will no doubt be telling them to ride it out, shut up and it'll die down. Unfortunately these things people don't forget about.

Come on Noel, where's your anti-corporate, anti-exploitative stance now.
Remember this, the tension with Liam promoting Pretty Green? "I didn't think it was right for Liam to be flogging gear to our fans".
So a parka is where you draw the line, but not £1000 tickets?
Suddenly 'your fans' are meaningless now.

Only problem with the tickets is that I didn't get one 😭

For my own curiosity, before the reunion ticket fiasco, what's the issue with Ignition as managers of Oasis / Noel?
I think Liam has called them out as being snakes or something previously after the split but just curious where that's come from / if there's any more info.

Wasn't the problem that Liam didn't want Pretty Green to pay for the advert(s)? If it was Coca Cola or Jack Daniels' for example, they would have been charged.

Yeah but Noel's brother didn't own Coca Cola or Jack Daniels So you think Noel did this out of spite but hid it behind not selling gear to the fans?

I don't think it's gonna be *this* bad to be honest The gigs are all sold out and as usual people are gonna move on onto another problematic matter as soon as something else happen, we've seen outrage at ticket sellers a thousand times before Don't get me wrong I'd like to see a statement from the band and hope the noise force them amd TM to try making up for it, but I don't expect much to happen in a way or the other This situation happens every time a big hot tour gets announced. Taylor Swift. Pearl Jam. Now Oasis to name but a few. That’s the downside of a monopoly. Exactly. It causes a storm in a teacup every time, we’re in the middle of it because we’re oasis fans, but come the gigs it’ll have been long forgotten. A week or two and it’ll be as if it never happened.

"Our fans" suggests it was a point of principle and not selling out. Something they've done here with this ticket fiasco.

Toshiba sponsored stadium gigs on the Don't Believe the Truth tour and released a tie-in phone, there was no "selling out" principle in place by the time the Pretty Green argument is meant to have happened.
