Not a thread condemning it or praising it, but latching on to the Miley Cyrus tour thread.

To stop touting, if you buy tickets you then have to show the card that was used to buy them when you turn up at the show. What a ridiculous idea, if you buy tickets and are ill or can't attend then you lose your money, you can't give them to a friend, you can't sell them for face value and the ticket agency won't give you your money back.

I'm not sure how they will ever stop touting, but this is the most stupid idea they've come up with yet.

It has it's positives and negatives. It's silly because it means tickets as gifts would no longer be an option .

I bought 4 tickets for Skunk Anansie in Manchester and I only need 2 of them now, perhaps only 1. I was expecting 3 other people to come but they bought their own tickets. That means I'm stuck with 3 spare tickets and the ticket agencies won't give refunds, so the only real way is to sell them on.
