ChunkyMunky Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Hey, gang. After finding out last week, I'm trying to find tickets to see Brian Setzer in Kentish Town on July 13th. The venue is sold out (and probably has been since March) and I've tried everywhere from GumTree, eBay StubHub and even this lovely site for anyone selling off a ticket. I don't mind paying over the odds for one but what suggestions do you lot have in mind? Been in this situation yourself and had a happy ending? Thanks.

TheGreek Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 (edited) Hmmm..a long shot but... There used to be an Employment Agency locally that had the contract to provide Staff to lots of the big venues....02 Arena, Wembley Arena, that sort of thing. Lots of my friends worked for them just to get into big gigs. Agency long gone out of business but if you could find out who supplies the staff that show people to their seats and so on...

joeystrange Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 If you're on Twitter then try tweeting a few days before the show that you're looking for tickets. A lot of people sell spares on there. If there's a Brian Setzer Facebook group you could try that too. Both have worked for me in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Steve Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I've flogged some spares on the event pages on Last FM before - tends to be genuine fans and people just wanting to get rid of spares at face value meeting up ahead of the gig - booking fees were typically a pint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
