      She will be the first artist to play 3 back to back nights at AT&T stadium in Texas. The venue allows for 100,000 seats per night. She was the first to play 2 nights in a row back during Reputation. After a 9 hour queue, the only tickets left were back row on the final night, thats where i'll be lol

    They need to be realistic about the fact that ticketmaster completely failed. They knew how many presale codes were sent out. All traffic that was not associated with a presale code should have instantly been redirected. And lets not forget that they increased THEIR OWN ticket prices persistently throughout the sale. The presale was for 'verified fans' yet thousand of tickets are already on stubhub for unrealistic prices and thousands of really real actual human fans are left with nothing. If they wanted to avoid high traffic they should have made the t swift part of the site temporarily unavailable for everyone who DID NOT have a code, that way people with actual codes could have accessed the site properly.

      Bots. Bots bought tickets faster than actual fans could and then owners of bots resold on stub hub. Also people sold their access codes to people who intended to buy tickets & resell for extremely high prices.

    • @jms977
      @jms977 Год назад

      Scalpers are notorious for setting up multiple accounts to buy as many tickets (whether presale or general sale) as possible and then resell them. Or people on stubhub might just be posting fake tickets for sale because, as far as I know, stubhub doesn’t actually guarantee your purchase

    • @starbase51shiptestingfacil97
      @starbase51shiptestingfacil97 Год назад +3

      Ticketmaster didn't crash, when it reached to about 2000 tickets it went to scalp mode and ditched the verified fans. The tickets started to show up on other sites under different names and ranging in prices from about $700 - 25,000 or more. The robo-scapler is actually Ticketmaster, and the other sites were Vividseats and Ticketnetwork (to name a few). You'll notice the sites are very similar in functionality and appearance.
      Motive: money
      Opportunity: Taylor Swift pre-sale
      Means: Ticket selling
      It is their method of operation (M.O.), if the tickets are selling well, it'll ditch the regular buyers when it reaches about 2000 tickets (2000+ queue). TS gave out codes to prevent robo-scalping, but ended up exposing Ticketmaster as the robo-scalper. You can't buy tickets for her show without it.

Ticketmaster crashed for me when I was waiting for the original 9am time to get tickets for LA shows and it kept glitching to an error page then back to the waiting page with the timer countdown that said the next presale starts at 3pm. After waiting for over 5 hours after the new time was announced and waiting for over 5,455 people in front of me the line started moving quite fast and I managed to get the Karma is my boyfriend VIP tickets.

TM also made lots of seats VIP (merch included) but they cost hundreds more than the seat right next to them without merch. (The merch isn’t worth hundreds of dollars). Then, when scalpers get a hold of the tickets, they relist them for insane prices. Very few people got seats for the listed face value price.

      @@joshuacoleman8000 Sure. I have loved Taylor and have been a fan of her music from the start of her career. However, at the risk of coming across looking like a keyboard warrior, there are some valid criticisms of her that she has to this day not addressed. There was a situation where she took to Twitter to say that a Netflix show, Ginny and Georgia, had made a sexist joke at her expense (re her going through lots of boyfriends). It's fine that she wanted to stand up for herself in that way, but when Swifties began attacking the actress who delivered the line with racist slurs and LITERAL THREATS OF DEATH in response to Taylor’s tweet, it’s outrageous that she didn’t say something. This was a big news headline. Taylor was “feminist” enough to defend her own name (in the name of her very self-serving brand of feminism) but disappeared when attacks turned ugly and racist. That's not real feminism. I can't be convinced she and her team didn't know about this. It was a big news story and it took place as a direct result of her tweet defending herself. Also, if your feminism isn’t intersectional, it’s not shit.
      It’s hypocritical to claim feminism in defense of yourself but to throw your hands up and walk away when death threats and racist comments are being hurled at another woman. That’s bullshit. I don’t think I’m being unreasonable to say that in light of the events that unfolded after Taylor’s tweet, her cries of “feminism” ring hollow.
      She has a long history of this type of self-serving and politically tone-deaf behavior, including when her team threatened a blogger with legal action (serving a cease-and-desist) for arguing that Taylor should denounce the white supremacist fans who called her their Aryan Goddess and insisted that she shared their beliefs. She literally could have sent that cease-and-desist to the Alt-Right groups making those claims in the first place. It’s disturbing that the person she chose to threaten w legal action was the one saying she should denounce the LITERAL HATE GROUP rather than the people OF that hate group claiming she shared their beliefs.
      Despite my love of her as a creative entity, these incidents have recolored my opinion of her. As a result, she feels evil to me. I know she has a disarming/charming personality and she is definitely charismatic, but I feel like that causes people to look past things like these incidents, and that’s a problem. As a long time fan I’m very disheartened and disillusioned by this, but I can never look at her the same way again. 😭

      @@joshuacoleman8000 SWIFTIES: I am attempting to start a movement of no tolerance for bullying in fan bases like Taylor’s. I have written a statement. Feel free to read through it, and I encourage you to do your own research so you can confidently stand behind the statement.
      If you agree with the contents of this comment, please repost, Tweet, make a TikTok, and share in any way that you can. I think it’s important that we band together as a fandom to hold our beloved Taylor accountable for some things that are of SERIOUS concern. She cannot control her fans but she can set the tone for her fan base and she can certainly use her platform in a responsible way. She has embraced feminism as part of her brand and has Tweeted about her commitment to be “loudly and ferociously anti-racist”, so let’s please hold her to that bar. We don’t want our girl walking around looking like a hypocrite, and even more importantly, we need the world (and that includes this fandom) to be a safe and loving place for all.
      I have been harassed and gaslighted for expressing the opinion that the pattern of death threats in her fandom is something Taylor should speak on. As her fandom, we love her, and part of loving her is holding her accountable. We know she has expressed a desire to use her voice for positive change, and we need to be there for her and support her by showing up even when that means we have feedback to give.
      The information I present in this comment is very well researched, but of course my integrity is only as good as the integrity of the sources I draw my information from. Still, I trust NPR, Time Magazine, The New York Times, Washington Post, The New Yorker, NBC, Newsweek, USA Today, and publications from Brown University and Northwestern University to be sources of integrity. My information also comes from observations of the things Taylor has and has not posted on Twitter and Instagram or made public statements about. If any of you have found information in your research that is contrary to any information I’ve presented in this comment, please bring that to my attention and direct me to the source you got your information from. I encourage you all to do your own research, and again, if you agree with this comment, repost, Tweet, and share however you can. Let’s show up for our queen!

      Here goes:
      There was a situation where Taylor took to Twitter to say that a Netflix show, Ginny and Georgia, had made a sexist joke at her expense (re her going through lots of boyfriends). It's fine that she wanted to stand up for herself in that way, but when Swifties began attacking the actress who delivered the line with racist slurs and LITERAL THREATS OF DEATH in response to Taylor’s tweet, it’s NOT OKAY that she didn’t say something. This was a big news headline. Taylor was “feminist” enough to defend her own name (in the name of her very self-serving brand of feminism) but disappeared when attacks turned ugly and racist. That's not real feminism. I can't be convinced she and her team didn't know about this. It was a big news story and it took place as a direct result of her tweet defending herself. This was simply a dangerously irresponsible use of her platform.
      Many Swifties will argue that that’s part of fame, but I feel like we need to stop normalizing this. And that STILL doesn’t mean she shouldn’t speak out. I believe she should do everything in her power to use her platform in a way that discourages hate. Not doing this is literally dangerous. Less importantly but still important, it also is not good optics.
      It’s hypocritical to claim feminism in defense of yourself but to throw your hands up and walk away when RACIALLY EXPLICIT DEATH THREATS are being hurled at another woman because you didn’t like a line in a TV show, even if she did find it triggering. That’s bullshit. I don’t think I’m being unreasonable to say that in light of the events that unfolded after Taylor’s tweet, her cries of “feminism” ring hollow.
      She has a long history of this type of self-serving and politically tone-deaf behavior, including when her team threatened a blogger with legal action (serving a cease-and-desist) for arguing that Taylor should denounce the white supremacist fans who insisted that she shared their beliefs and called her their Aryan Goddess. She literally could have sent that cease-and-desist to the Alt-Right groups making those claims in the first place. Although it would have been unsuccessful too because first amendment protected speech is a thing. (I’m flabbergasted bc her legal team HAS to know this.) My point is it’s disturbing that the person her team chose to threaten w legal action was the one saying she should denounce the LITERAL HATE GROUP rather than the people OF that hate group claiming she shared their beliefs. The ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) even released a statement chastising her team for attempting to suppress first-amendment-protected speech with their convoluted rhetoric. I am aware that in 2018 she denounced Tr*mp and addressed white supremacy. But this doesn’t change the fact that she remained silent on it for a long time, including the year leading up to Tr*mp’s election and the first two years of his presidency. And it certainly does not change the fact that her team tried to silence a blogger for making a reasonable speculation about her silence. (Silence in the face of violence means support for the oppressor.) I feel she should address the problematic white feminism of her past and discuss how she intends to embrace intersectional feminism in the future. For those who do not know what white feminism and intersectional feminism are, I encourage you to do your research.
      One of its key tenets is that in order to be real, feminism needs to also encompass all of the aims of anti-racism and LGBTQIA+ activism.
      Taylor’s “feminism” in the Ginny and Georgia incident, and truthfully, in general, is not only not intersectional, but it can better be defined as an act of self interest. It was “Taylor Swift Feminism”, which is not feminism at all.
      This is all coming from a woman who as a 19 year old in 2011 went to see her on the Speak Now tour and cried tears of happiness when she came on stage. So it’s not like I don’t have my own attachment to her. But I’ve seen what I’ve seen and my principles are too strong to not take issue with these things. Wrong is wrong. We need to stop making defenses and living in the areas of gray, because racism and injustice proliferate in those gray areas.
      I still love her as a creative entity, but I must admit that I’m not here for the character she has shown in these incidents. There are real victims of these behaviors who are being subjected to death threats (and in some cases even racially explicit death threats. She is someone who has claimed feminism and anti-racism as part of her brand, and we need to hold her to the bar that she has set.
      There are other situations like the Ginny and Georgia incident. A music critic was threatened and her address was posted because she gave Folklore an 8/10 review. Fans did the same to Scooter Braun and his family. From what I can tell from my rather extensive research, Taylor did not speak about this. We cannot just wait until someone dies to hold her accountable. This is NOT OKAY. Taylor and her team need to show up better.

    Really people. You would spend $22,000 to see Taylor Swift. I guess you would rather use that money to make sure you give everything to your children than eat!! I don't know about you but $22,000 buys a lot of groceries, rent, gas etc. Good luck to you!! How about taking that money and give that to victims of hurricane Ian or a cancer charity or anything except this!! But what do I know. U remember paying $20 bucks to see the Temptations in Boston in 1969. I guess those days are gone!!!
