Against my better judgment, I now have a “golden circle” ticket for this show.

Needed 2 x extra tixs for my kids, joined the waiting room half an hour early (7:30am my time). When I hit the queue I had 3600 people ahead of me and thought that I was stuffed. But got through pretty quickly. Then had this nightmare of a situation where I had the 'Golden Circle' tickets secured. at the payment screen and kept getting this bullshit red line at the top of my screen "Oops! Secure Ticket Selection is Required!". What the fuck was that about??

Actually had to cancel my order and try again! At the first 4 or 5 tries had no GC tickets available but kept hitting search again and FINALLY they came up. Went to pay, same fucking warning message! I ended up messing about with the "apply promo code" area and finally a separate option to tick popped up for me regarding "secured tickets". Paid and done.

I did not need that level of stress on an otherwise lovely Friday morning!

[Birds in Hell]

Phew!

Glad it worked out.

I had 9700 ahead of me in the queue when I joined and it also took me several attempts to find a solitary GC ticket.

Caved and got a ticket. Not the greatest seat but hey it'll do.
Went back to main screen and saw next show released so grabbed golden circle ticket for that one.
Expensive little hobby this.

Gonna be lots of people who got tix for the 16th and logged out pissed about this little stunt...

Not the greatest timing being the Monday. Doing Melbourne solo so be away for the extra two days. Then meet the wife in Sydney for that show. If they add extra in Sydney they better do it quick.
Won't be home for a week and we are supposed to going o/s that week. Kids will be happy when I say sorry Daddy is going away, you'll have to wait!

My ticketmaster screen is glitching totally. Same error, screen frozen, can't pay for the tickets. What a drama.

Keep it open, but try opening a new browser window. Hopefully all the session data is saved so you can continue

[Higgs]

Got there in the end but what a fucking drama! For some reason it just wouldn't let me pay via CC, it wouldn't bring up the "secured ticket" option, which I didn't want anyway, but wouldn't let me actually pay. Timed out 3 separate times. In the end paid via Paypal and that worked fine.

Got Level 1 tickets, no idea where they are, never been to Marvel before. Happy to do GC for night 1 and sit my old arse down for night 2 though. Now to extend the Air BnB by one day...

[LetMeSleep]

Hard core.

[Higgs]

Hard core.

You know it baby.
