Fall Out Boy fans have been left very disappointed this morning after an estimated 15,000 people tried to get a hold of about 500 tickets, which were reportedly put on sale three minutes early, meaning they sold out before they were even supposed to be on sale.
The pop punk outfit announced their return earlier this week, which inevitably led to thousands of fans going wild over the internet in anticipation of their world tour, which includes a gig at London’s Underworld in Camden on February 25th. However, due to the size of the venue, and what seems like a number of technical problems, there are now thousands of disappointed Fall Out Boy fans that haven’t got their hands on a ticket.
The tickets were set to go on sale at 9am but there are countless fans who claim that by 8:57am, tickets hadn’t just gone on sale, they had completely sold out seconds later. There were also reports that certain sellers had no system to reserve tickets in baskets, meaning some fans had attempted to purchase a ticket, only for it to be sold to someone else as they were entering their details or finalising the purchase.
We asked some of our Twitter users if they’d experienced any of the same, and this is what some of them had to say:
Another fan, Edith Gervin, told us she thought ‘it was such a fucking joke’, while Sharon Mitchell wrote to us and said: “They went on sale early, and only 375 of the 500 tickets were allocated for sale.. wtf? A larger venue is required!”
The positives that we can take from this news, however, is that there is clearly a massive demand for Fall Out Boy in the UK, meaning a tour of the country is the only logical answer to the problems. If you’d like to see the band announcing a full tour, leave us a comment in the section below. We’d like to know if you were lucky enough to grab one of the tickets, too!
