Default Cheapest place to get gig tickets? [UK]
Crikey, i've just priced up, on Ticketweb, a pair of tickets for Zero 7 (£39.20) and a pair of tickets for Gnarls Barkely (£58.24) bringing the total to a whopping £99.09 (inc shipping!).

Its actually £17.50 for Zero7 and £26.00 for Gnarls, but there seems to be a service change, and then a shipping charge on top, hiking up the overall price.

I guess its ok considering its a pair (and im hoping my company will pay for their ticket), but I was wondering if anyone knows of a cheaper place to get tickets for gigs. If it helps, im in London so happy to go around to places if it works out cheaper.

I hate buying tickets for stuff like that. In the states ticketmaster has exclusive rights to just about every venue and they love to toss in those stupid service charges. There is one place in town that isn't ticket master, and a lot of good bands play there... it is SOO much cheaper, but you can only find out about shows there by finding them on the band's website or on the venue's website.

Tickets for nearly everything are getting way too expensive [thumbdown] Trying to price some Fiesta Bowl tickets, and seeing the 150$ parking lot price was just a bit much for me [thumbdown] not to mention 400$ per seat [thumbdown]

Not a fan of eBay, given me so much trouble in the past. Just had a look and some of the Gnarls Barkley ones ares are more expensive than what I have on Ticketweb!

Think you're kind of out of luck there mate, only other suggestion is to check out your local music retailer, We have a place called jacks or something where they do a lot of the tickets for various gigs for quite a bit less - especially local gigs
