LOL I forgot to even try. Oh well. This album is definitely one of 2021's best. Top 10 for sure, maybe higher. I'm even walking around singing COMPLACENCCCCY or Can I Geh Ihhh. She did what she had to do. Still not over Hold On, I Drink Wine, Cry Your Heart Out, All Night Parking, or Easy On Me, especially the first 2, but yeah, I'm so proud to be a stan still.

Is it through ticketmaster? I’m sure 90% of the tickets are going to mass buyers anyway.

I have a friend who got a code but decided they won’t go. Can they buy and transfer tickets to me! We are texting right now talking about it but the rules are not clear. If you can transfer then it’s a no brainer.
This is all before seeing ticket prices because that may change everything.

If you can transfer then it’s a no brainer. This is all before seeing ticket prices because that may change everything. According to the email, codes cannot be transferred. Unused codes will roll over to the wait list. Codes cannot be purchased. You should not trust anyone trying to sell you a code. Only Ticketmaster can issue Verified Fan access codes and we will never sell these through our platform or any other site. Furthermore, codes are non-transferable.

I’m not talking about transferring the code. I’m talking about buying the tickets via their account and wondering if they can then transfer the tickets to me. I have all their log in info and can buy tickets tomorrow. Just want to be sure that I can show up on the day of the concert and everything is ok.

I log in to Ticketmaster 10 minutes before the sale and it says next sale is tomorrow. What is going on?
I assume they opened them up early and I missed out. That’s so unbelievably unfair. Don’t announce a time and then let them sell early. I planned my day around being online at the right time.

I wonder how high its pure sales can go by the end of the era (likely early-mid 2023). I think it could do 3 million+ if they have a perfect string of singles along with continuing promotion/performances etc (Grammys/AMAs/VMAs/Billboard Music Awards). Perhaps new vinyl variants in time for Q4 2022/target exclusive vinyl.
I'm really looking forward to how the era plays out as I'm sure there will be a lot of great moments yet to come! I hope they record her show in Vegas and release it on DVD/upload performances to her youtube channel. I am never going to be able to go so I really want to get to see it in HQ.
In fact, considering it's Adele, I wouldn't be surprised if they record a date of the show for a TV showing at some point.

Don’t worry, it was delayed because Ticketmaster was affected by Amazon Web Services being down today. You didn’t miss out :)

I saw on Twitter they were $85 for nosebleeds and went up to $700 for the front. But Ticketmaster has "surge" pricing now based on demand so they quickly went up. Ticketmaster stays scamming.

I did not buy tickets but found some in the 200 section for $316 which I was actually surprised by. I thought it would be even higher based off of Twitter. However, that price was before the almost $100 in fees. I refuse. The $316 was already too high but $100 just in fees? As if Ticketmaster isn’t already taking a chunk? Please. Didn’t they already settle a huge lawsuit because of this?

I saw some Twitter posts where they paid $1k in fees alone for VIP tickets. DAMN

Live Nation’s dynamic pricing with Ticketmaster is absolute garbage. Totally screws the Verified Fan system. Not that I expected to have a huge chance at getting tickets to this, but damn, I don’t think most of us had a single shot in hell. Congrats to Music Fan/anyone else who got blessed by Jesus H. Christ himself.

A worldwide tour would have been massive, possibly bigger than 25.

#1 for a 3rd week in the UK with 73,212 sales. Total is now 437,349 and becomes the biggest selling album this year in just 3 weeks.

Adele – 30

Great hold!
I've sat with this for over one month now probably on my sixth full listen. "Oh My God" and "Can I Get It" sound out of place. They're good, but out of place. The remaining of the album is an absolute vibe.
Overall, 30 is certainly her strongest album without a doubt. The musicality is top notch.
"I Drink Wine" is probably my favorite now. Still on the fence as to whether it's single worthy but it's a great song and contains one of her strongest melodies imo.
