Ticketmaster has been renamed in our house as Ticketmasacre. Jesus it's a terrible experience.

Replying To Al_Maguire:  "Some demand for tickets already.

I logged into at 2pm and was 10500 in the queue. Waited 20 mins and most sections in upper Cusack almost gone."
I doubt it. Ticketmaster and the way they sell tickets is a joke.

No lower cusack or hogan go on sale initially and they try to scare you into the corners with demand.

Everytime I've used my phone too to check map, it doesn't work so cannot see what's there or not there.

Horrible experience. Thank god the GAA didn't let them add on their nonsense fees like they do for concerts. They have a near monopoly at this stage. I'm sure they make Croke Park and GAA use it now otherwise they won't get the big concerts.

from prior experience, better seats will show up later in the week

on the other hand, I think the attendance for our semi against Galway last year surprised many, wasn't it over 67,000 in the end?

Are many of you going via your clubs this time for tickets?
Cannot be bothered using Ticketmaster.

I see a lot of clubs socials are directing their members to Ticketmaster to get their tickets, clubs don't want the hassle.

A couple of years ago for the All Ireland Semis, the clubs in the competing counties were provided with a pre sale link to email to club members, allowing them to select their tickets (good sections) the day before they went on general sale.

But no sign of that system this year, and absolute free for all, which suits Ticketmasacre.
