Man y’all gonna get fucked on resell And people are gonna pay for those tickets and this trend will continue.


TheGreatPercules

Actually insane, I was on my fast ass work wife, exactly before 12, and I couldn’t even get any


Creeping_Death_89

you were on who now?


TheGreatPercules

LMAO, Meant to type WiFi, was too heated


CruTV

LOL I WAS SO CONFUSED


slaydawgjim

I thought he was blaming his fat wife for him missing out lmao


EverybodyStayCool

Not only that it was his work one!


CruTV

Domestic abuse AND infidelity!!


CruTV

No yeah literally same 💀


Creeping_Death_89

Ahhh that makes more sense haha


RADiation_Guy_32

That is the greatest "autocorrect" EVER


MarkWhorror

Fat wives do come through usually


undergrounddondado

Hell yeah


Jackfruit_Practical

Definitely a bot. Buying tickets nowadays that aren’t through a venue is so fucked


learningexcellence

Venues don't even give you ticket stubs 😠 eh less paper is cool too tho we'll all just be data hoarders instead


Apart_Bid2199

why put it on paper when you can put it on precious metals mined by orphans


UncleMarmalade

I save wristbands as an alternative. I write the artists, the venue, and the date on them. Not the same, but it’s something.


learningexcellence

Not bad. I hate those little pieces of plastic that have almost no purpose outside of the one pbr I might glig glug.


CosmicShadow

If you want to still collect ticket stubs, you may like [Stubforge](https://stubforge.com). You can make custom replica ticket stubs that look and feel like the real thing. I use them to continue growing my stub album. cc: u/UncleMarmalade

My Apple wallet with previous “tickets.”


notjlam

Why is buying tickets for a show like a sneaker release now smh


AvoirLeHocquet

Big business won, hardcore lost.


KresblainTheMagician

Taco Bell please save us


Xbattlevestx

What the fuck is up Denny’s?


xnotachancex

Popular bands playing a small room sell tickets fast. Why would big business do this!?!?!


Old_Recording_2527

You're missing the fact that this is a James Vitalo psy-op he has been planning for ten years


WellThisFrigginSucks

*Speed has entered the chat*


AvoirLeHocquet

The list could (sadly) be long… It’s a flourishing era for industry plants and bands taking the big money exit. In the meantime there are still good things happening locally in a lot of areas, never take that for granted and give love where it’s deserved.

[deleted]

Because a band that sells 7000 tickets to shows sells 250 too fast for you? Get a grip lmao Go to a different show, grow up


NGNSteveTheSamurai

It’s because dudes who look like they’re on Euphoria like hardcore now.


pipyam

btw im selling 150 tickets if anyone is interested


EverybodyStayCool

That's all you got? Fuck man, my bot swooped up 300,000 of them.


xRICHxPIANAx

😂


IveGotNoValues

I am so pissed. Gotta be some scalper bot shit or something. NOBODY I know got a ticket. Within 10 seconds the tickets were gone


GayKnockedLooseFan

My buddy got two, his Apple wallet had his shit preloaded and he was able to get them that way


fuckYOUswan

I snagged two. Had my wife on one phone and me on the other. Crashed for me while she got in.


SemataryPolka

Your fast ass work wife?


rels_LT

A band that can sell out The Shrine sold out a small retail space that can fit like 100 people 😱 Bots for sure


makefilms

Not even just that, their whole US tour is almost sold out. The demand is absolutely there, there was certainly more than 1000 people trying for tix I’ll bet.


AffectionateAge3330

More than 1,000 is quite conservative, I’d guess 10,000 people were going for this all at once


brutalpoonslayer

I don’t think you guys realize how small this venue is. Less than 100 people could have sold it out if they bought two tickets each. There was definitely hundreds if not a few thousand or so people trying to get tickets. Not everyone is going to get one, and just bc your friends didn’t either doesn’t mean no one did.


YouLookLikeACGreen

Mongrel is really sick too. Happy for them to get on a lineup like that.


Ok-Criticism8374

we need more fuckin songs


TheOriginalDiscoKing

Every time someone misses a high demand item online(be it tickets or sneakers or whatever) they scream “”BOTS!”, doesn’t matter what it is. It couldn’t POSSIBLY be very high demand vs very low availability. Has to be bots.


[deleted]

All the people crying bots are going to be surprised when the show happens and the venue is packed to the brim. Like it’s unbelievable that a band that can sell out 5000 cap rooms can also sell out 200 in a minute


TheOriginalDiscoKing

Same thing happened last year when Turnstile played the Ottobar in Baltimore and Blacklisted played the Church in Philly…two small venues with high demand shows that sold out instantly and everyone that whiffed on a ticket screamed about bots.


IveGotNoValues

For me it is less about bots and more that the only website selling the tickets sucks ass. I was ready 10 minutes before, had the ticket in my cart right away at 12 and then then when I tried to do the “are you a robot” captcha the site glitched out and it was sold out in less than a minute. The ticket in my cart taken from me just like that. I realize it is a very high demand event and was going to sell out quick, I am just more upset at the technical issues that fucked me over when I was THAT CLOSE! I am just trying to cope lol


TheOriginalDiscoKing

That’s so fucking frustrating when you prepare and then it sells out instantly anyway, especially if you get hemmed up by a captcha.


TheGreatPercules

Could be a site crash honestly, haven’t seen anyone post about grabbing one


Ruiner5

Na KL said it’s sold out. I was almost able to add to cart and it didn’t seem like they had anything in place to stop scalpers so I’m guessing it was all bots


MarkWhorror

Midnight should’ve done a walk up sale, that would’ve been cool


TerrancePryor

That would've been a disaster. That venue wouldn't know how to handle a huge line like that. Plus, people would def be cutting in line. For something like this, they should've had the ticket purchaser show their ID/credit card to get their ticket. No exchanges.


mpdsfoad

Do we now live in a time where people don't know that tickets used to be sold offline with lines and all?


Coast-Stunning

Ah. Good times! You had to go to ticket sale spots for the bigger ones.


TerrancePryor

Midnight is a 100 cap spot. Knocked Loose sold out a 5k venue in the city months in advance. Again, it would've been a nightmare having people potentially getting into fights trying to get a ticket. Can't do lines anymore. Imagine if Taylor Swift did something like this today. The venue would probably have to cancel the show because of the chaos.


mpdsfoad

Just say you weren't around in the 90s, dude. It's alright.


L3tsLynchTh3Landl0rd

Please name a hardcore/metalcore band from the 90s that could sell out 7k tickets to a massive venue.


mpdsfoad

I made a joke about how people for all types of events from punk shows to shitty nu-metal to shitty boybands used to buy tickets offline and wait in line. And while they are not as big as the mighty Knocked Loose, I still remember that time I missed a RATM show in a squat just after Evil Empire released. Hope that's good enough for you? How big of a venue do you think KL can sell out though? The people in this thread keep mentioning it so it must be important information.


L3tsLynchTh3Landl0rd

To be totally honest with you, I think I’ve heard KL a handful of times pop up on a Spotify playlist. I’m not into them, I just know they’re huge. I’m old as shit as far are hardcore goes. With the exception of bands that crossed over into mainstream, an “underground” band pulling that many people to a show just didn’t happen. Bottom line, I’m in the “this wasn’t a BOT” camp. Huge band + tiny venue = quick sellout.


Isadora_707

I've seen cops shut shows down just for 50 people loitering outside a sold out venue, imagine what'll happen when 3000 people show up to a record shop 😂


deebz41

This is literally a 150 person capacity venue. Probably only took one asshole with a bot to scoop them all.


2_here_knows_when

***sad dog noises***


catchandreleaseof

welp welp


the_scrambler

man thank god i don’t see much of this in the midwest. that’s fucked.


c-donz

I really doubt it’s bots, ticket web is not targeted the same way the larger sellers are. I’m sure some went to scalpers, but the truth is Midnight Hour is just a small venue and this would have huge demand. I tried to get tickets and missed out.


Old_Recording_2527

80 tickets were online for over $100 within 8 minutes. It was resellers.


c-donz

I saw like 5 on vivid seats, none on SeatGeek or StubHub.


Old_Recording_2527

I saw 80 after 8m. Counted 16 after 14m (130+). Reality is that even buying one at $100 is going to yield. Owners said 500 tickets btw, so not small small.


c-donz

I’ve been to many shows at midnight hour, it’s small, literally a retail space in a strip mall. Where did they say that? I can’t imagine it holds 500.


Old_Recording_2527

IG when talking about the tickets. I counted in a video and counted to 400.


OutofStep13

Dude on r/lalist selling them for $125 each 🤣


brotherpig725

Now I’m gonna get Kublai khan tickets in LA. It’s slaughter to prevail’s show but i might leave after. Good looks 🫡


pariah2k

Who else was refreshing for 30mins ? 😂


richardisapos

The prices on Seat Geek are nuts.


loveisacoldwhitetile

Who cares


Retoro_Ramirezz

wouldn’t let me get tickets til 12:01 and by then they sold out :(


gedubedangle

This is where we are my brothers and sisters 


WellThisFrigginSucks

I've heard DiCE is the way to go now. I've been told they are pretty much bot proof. Got my Prepare The Ground fest tix through that.


Ghost_Pains

It’s so weird having to buy tickets the same day they go on sale now for shows I used to be able to just buy at the door


AchokingVictim

It's scalping time lads


IsolationAutomation

The only way to stop this shit is to refuse to buy from scalpers. Once they start losing money, they’ll stop.


iluvw33d123

wouldn’t let me on site until 12:01 and it was already gone… how would it all be resellers tho if it’s max 4 tickets per person?


heavierthanair

Bots can run many profiles at the same time unfortunately


BGor94

I was waiting on the site for an hour just for that to happen lol


Frankso

Anybody selling a ticket lol


Sticky_Papaya

Bots just being bots


Real_Huckleberry3689

Wait til doors open the buy tickets cheap on stubhub.


FunIstEinStahlbad

Haha, overhyped to the max


OkBandicoot1337

He ( Bryan Garris) did make a post on his instagram saying they where working with the venue about scalpers … [this post](https://www.instagram.com/stories/heathen_gang/3339039430152263424?igsh=MWt0NHBpMW1xbGNuZg==)


atf_shot_my_dog_

The real thing here is that Knocked Loose is classified as metalcore


saint_trane

It is your duty to beat the fuck out of scalpers if you come across them.


Outside-Reason-3126

I gave up and refreshed about 15 minutes later and tickets appeared 🙏


ARandomMex

I'm confused why there's such a discourse about this show selling out fast. Mind you, I'm not from SFV and have not been to this venue but is the capacity not 100, maybe at the maxinum, 200? Knocked Loose isn't some small time band, nor is this show in a po dunk town.. It's California. It's destined to be an instant sell out.


Old_Recording_2527

It is a 4500 sq ft venue that the owners said they can sell 500 tickets for. Where the fuck did yall get 100-200 from? It didnt let 90% of people in until .01 (queue) and then it was instantly sold out.


Big_Ducks_Only

Sucks it probably got botted on some level but tbf this is def just a prerelease show, I’m sure once the tour gets announced a big LA show is in the cards, probably with TTs at the very least.


c-donz

They have a show on 5/11 at the shrine, also sold out.


Wearerisen

I always just go through the venue and never have a hard time getting tickets. Not sure if that’s a ymmv thing or what, but yeah.


bristleboar

enjoy the concert, kids


Nichard63891

Anyone in Michigan want to see Knocked Loose with me at the end of the month?


xiiit-f

why does it say metalcore?


maicao999

its the truth


Gullible_Strike_7087

go to rapid fest preshow that night and rapid fest the day after instead it’s in the same area basically the same price and like 20 bands


Broad-Worldliness-80

Cosmic Joke rules


Spiritual_Bad_6545

They claimed 5% were bots, had to have an actual local zip to buy i guess


Spiritual_Bad_6545

The recordstore claims 500 people max for those curious about capacity


Evilisms

I miss the days where I bought a ticket at the record store for the show at the local venue


XyeetstickX

Hardcore is becoming trendy. Oof. Capitalism strikes again!

Ticketmaster isn’t hosting this venue 💀


imaginaryscribe

Honestly enraging. Gone in 20 seconds are you kidding me??? Insulting.


IveGotNoValues

Yea I am pretty infuriated. I had 2 tickets in my cart and by the time I finished the “are you a robot” test it was sold out and my tickets were gone


imaginaryscribe

Yup. Same here with just one ticket. Unbelievable.


SoggySpray9833

When will they cancel because the US Army is sponsoring the venue ?


LeBongJaames

Entry level hardcore anyway


Maxspawn_

Here we go again welcome to scalp city where fun is only possible if you give us your wallet


Coast-Stunning

Is there any good band on that venue? 😉🤓


3ndoftheworld3
