Liam Gallagher fans have taken online to voice their frustration after the huge rush for tickets to his upcoming UK and Ireland arena tour.
After announcing the tour last week before adding another date due to phenomenal demand, Gallagher himself then responded to the upset of fans complaining about the ‘farce‘ of the pre-sale.
When they went on general sale this morning, it seems that they were snapped up within mates. A few lucky fans were overjoyed with their purchase, whole others were left bitterly disappointed – and some calling out secondary ticket sites for selling them at hugely inflated prices:
This is bollocks. 108 quid for level 3 at Leeds arena. Fucking level 3. Glad I don't use these scumbag sites. #LiamGallagher pic.twitter.com/dzLU4JDtfc

You know who I feel sorry for? Proper Touts. The blokes who stand outside in all weather conditions earning an honest living #LiamGallagher

How can tickets be on third party websites already but literally no one with a presale code managed to get one? #LiamGallagher pic.twitter.com/ICU7MmNt62

What a joke that was… got more chance of witnessing the second coming of Christ than getting tickets for #LiamGallagher

If you buy tickets just to sell them on for more than face value, you are part of the problem #LiamGallagher

#LiamGallagher these days unless you are lucky or pay over the odds. Anyone buying to sell is a scumbag. End of.

If you've bought tickets just to sell them on for triple the price, you need to have a fucking word with yourself #LiamGallagher

After the initial run of tickets for the pre-sale, Gallagher told fans: “COOL IT OUT,” before adding: “We’re sorting it out stay cool brothers n sisters”. He went on to state that there would be “more tickets coming back on sale and we are enforcing limited per person and cancelling any multiple purchases.”
Ticketmaster added: “This was a very high demand event, and a simple case of demand outweighing supply. In no way did having a pre-sale code guarantee a ticket – it was a first come, first served basis.”
