Urban Art Association

Congrats!
I desperately wanted to get these tickets and was refreshing like mad just before 9am.
I got straight in the queue at position 5000. It then shot me further down the queue
45 mins later I was back to 5000 but had to go back to work, so gave up

I'm so sorry you guys missed out. This morning's experience just got me thinking that if it wasn't for all the bun fight art drops I would have easily missed out this am too. Or maybe I just got blimin Lucky today!

I remember seeing them at in Stoke a the Trentham Gardens just as the released OK Computer. They played a blinder.

I thought the same. Getting an art drop is a piece of p*ss compared to Radiohead tickets! Cheers iamzero - that makes me feel better!

I've tried that one 3 times now and been unsuccessful. Last time they were released I got to put them in my cart but then it wouldn't let me checkout! Been lucky and got the last two pieces of art though on the drop that I have gone for.

Well, back in 2006 I didn`t receive any tickets for the soccer World Cup in Germany during the early lottery rounds. Later on there were tickets released through the FIFA website in an online shop. At the first release the FIFA site shut down due to the world wide very high demand.

Well, I didn`t give up and my goal was to see any match in any town. In the end it took months and patience but thanks to F5ing I was able to see every game I wanted - which was nearly every game with Germany and many more. Best thing was that there was a small forum with about 100 people with the same goal like me. I joined it after the first shutdown. From that point we were on the hunt together, informing each other, helping each other, all disgusted by the many flipped tickets in the bay for incredible high prices which kept real fans out. 2 tickets easily sold for 1000€ ...

As we got successful with our hunt and were disgusted by the flippers we helped other people to get tickets for the original price, too. (Friends but also strangers who asked for help, including a kid with cancer whose father tried to get tickets for a game. In the end they saw many games of the kids favorite team Italy, sponsored by us including a free jersey and stuff) After some months the forum had grown to thousands of users.

I didn`t flip a single ticket but helped hundreds of fans to get tickets for the original price. It was an incredible experience, meeting cool, thankful people in every stadium I watched a game in (Stuttgart, Berlin, Dortmund, Frankfurt, Nürnberg ...). Best summer ever, unforgettable experience - thanks to fast fingers.

I fell asleep during a radio head set at Coachella once.
But thats what happens when the booze is expensive and no drugs.

I saw them at Leeds Metropolitan University in, I think, the summer/early autumn of 1994. They played just before term started, so there were no students around and the place was virtually empty. I also tried to get tickets this morning, and was pretty well prepared - logged in to See Tickets and Ticketmaster at 8.45am, with payment information good to go - but never got anywhere near to the vaguest intimation of the outside possibility of a sniff of a chance.

Foo Fighters & Queens of the Stone Age, Stratford Rex, 2000.....
Insane show...warm up for Reading Festival.

Thought this was a dirty thread at first glance!

Lol depends on who that finger is for?

Dan. Did you get tickets then? Which day? I got 2 for the Saturday.

No mate. My uncle designs their stages and does all the lights for their live shows and has done for the last 20 years so I am lucky and don't need to f5 my way to see radiohead. For a print release however still f5'ing with the rest !!
