Can we stay on topic please, this is about Adele so let's stick to Adele :duck: If you want to discuss Gaga's tours in comparison to Adele's then make a thread about it under Entertainment Talk or Gaga Thoughts - this thread isn't the place :omg: 

To answer the topic, yeah it sucks how people who have no intention of attending snap up tickets to make a profit. Same happens with H&M designer collaborations and other things :noparty: Prices will drop closer to the date but I'm not sure by how much :/ She's one hell of a hot ticket nowadays so it's that much more frustrating. There may be more chances with ticket giveaways on radio and other opportunities though so keep your eyes peeled :udidnt:

That awkward moment when you're odds to attend the concert are higher by competing in radio contests than by trying to beat the scalpers :rip:

But I'm only a man and I do what I can.

I'm not surprised. This happens at every big event and Adele tickets are definitely valuable. 

Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show. I should really just relax."

Omg shut up with the comparisons. Why bring gaga into this? If you don't want to see Adele then don't see her. Why be so negative all the time. We are gaga fans. We embrace talent and artistry.

I still think Gaga is better vocally.... and to see live. What is Adele going to do, sit in a chair the entire time??

I was this close to writing you up for flamebait....! :rip:

She's going to sing, silly :P

I know it's your opinion and you are entitled to it but think please, think :sara:

Yeah I know it stung hard.

My mom just bought a ticket for herself and me -- 2 tickets retailing at 39.99 each and my poor mom just spent $919.99 for them :cry:

That's 11 and a half times what they were originally purchased for.

She just told me tonight she's gonna have to dip into our savings for my christmas present...

I felt really bad so as soon as I go back to work I'm going to work as much overtime as possible. God that was a sh*tton of money. More even then the amount it cost us to see Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, and Barbara Streisand.

I don't understand all the Adele hype.... Yes she has an amazing voice, but I feel like her concert would be extremely boring... All her songs are pretty slow and we all know she isn't gonna incorporate any costumes, theatrics, or dancing..... :neyde:

I can see why people would want to see her still, but I cannot believe the demand is THAT high. In some cities, she is literally doing a WEEK of shows....

OMG, that's so much money... I could never spend that much money, knowing the actual price of the ticket is that much lower but some greedy people decided to make a profit off of it... I simply could not force myself into buying it :giveup: 

Anyway, hope you enjoy the show, regardless :sara:

 I'm probably going to have her resell them or return them to Stub Hub so that we can get them cheaper. You are right it was WAYYYYY too much

So lucky that I was able to score some tickets as soon as they went on sale this morning. The resale prices are absolutely ridiculous.

Just blew over $1000 on two tickets for her first night in Vancouver.... I'd hate myself if I didn't do it, but I'm also so sad I wasn't able to get regular-priced tickets :( Adele is honestly my number one fave and the last time I was able to get tickets to see her was when she played a town hall in Portland before she did SNL and blew up. 25 is my fave album of the year and I really, really want to see her live again.

Because she has fans and people like her music?  Concerts aren't all about costumes, theatrics, and dancing.

Adele is an artist, not an entertainer. 

I'd see Adele primarily for her amazing voice and personality. She does not have to be jumping all over the stage with disco lights flashing in each direction.  

Adele has stage presence.  

Adelephant ? :grr:
