My almost 18yr old GDx1 who has just gone off on an inter - railing trip asked me to get her some concert tickets .
Which was / should have been no problem as I am the guru / go to person of concert ticket buying in our family .
This was a presale with general release being Friday .
Well , if I tell you the name and the person & you say never heard of her /they/them it wouldn’t be a surprise as it’s a rare thing to know of any of the current artists. She is a 24yr old American singer . ‘ Gracie Abram’s’
Which makes it even more amazing , bizarre little known ( by the masses anyway ) singers being sell outs at huge venues !
I cannot believe that even with presale I COULD NOT get tickets , I sat in a queue of 3,000 plus at the starting point , twice I got to “ Now it’s your turn “ which resulted in zilch , de nada 👎🏻
Again later in the day I tried with the same result . I believe the tickets are launched in batches . I may of been more successful if said GD had asked me prior to 9:45am on the morning they went on presale plus I was away from home & sat outside a cafe nursing my coffee .
It may be that this young singer has the same appeal as Taylor Swift , whose sell out tour is something of a phenomenon.
My GD & her 11yr old Sister are going to a ‘ Swiftie’ concert 🎵 at Wembley next month .
So , I’ll be trying again tomorrow wish me luck !
