Any bets on how fast they will sell out?

I guess that they will sell out in 6 minutes

What a joke.... We had 4 of us refreshing the page and booking from 9:00:01. None of us could get a single ticket under any configuration. Apparently big queues in the streets at some of the physical outlets too. How many tickets do they give to corporates, etc?

I officially hate ticketmaster now. I disliked them before but now its hate :) I dont even care if it's their fault

Damnit, Anyone hook us up a ticket lol? :)

Pathetic. I was in the line in for the ticketmaster in hamilton on my laptop and they managed to sell 3 over the counter before they were gone. Lasted about 30 seconds.

So both shows sold out in under a minute?
Also glad I joined the fan club.
I did the same thing when the RHCP came a few years ago to make sure that I could get 4 tickets. Those concerts also sold out very quickly.

Amen to that! I have to say I was smirking to myself listening to The Rock this morning and hearing them sell out (nasty I know!)

I've noticed that too. I am guess cause the physical tickets haven't been printed yet, or there are just so many fans that the scalpers didn't have a chance!!!

Trade Me requires you to have the tickets in your posession to be allowed to sell them. Seeing as noone has the physical tickets yet TM will remove any auctions. I imagine they will be policing it pretty heavily for the next little while.

I have my tickets as I went for the cheapest option so I have a PDF file with the 4 tickets that I have to print out myself.

Yeah, I wanted the physical ones. I wonder if they can resupply me the PDF too? - I am just impatient to see the tickets!!!

Loving the Mandatory Metallica on the rock at the moment too. Man I miss this.

Used to tune in each night for it back when I was at high school!

Hard luck to those who missed out, congrats to those who secured tickets!

What a idiot, wonder how long before auction is pulled.

"Broke student" my ass, if you can afford ~$600 for the tickets in the first place!
