Lewis Capaldi tour sells out in seconds with fans furious at Ticketmaster for ‘crashing as they reached front of the queue’ – as adored Scotsman issues emotional update

BBG News

As a die-hard Lewis Capaldi admirer, I can barely contain my excitement about his highly anticipated comeback tour. However, the swiftness of ticket sales has left me and countless other enthusiastic fans feeling utterly frustrated! We were ready to snatch our tickets at the front of the queue, only to find ourselves met with the disappointment of Ticketmaster’s system crashing just as we reached our moment of triumph. It’s infuriating to say the least!

As an ardent admirer, I can hardly contain my excitement! The charismatic Scot, age 28, is all set to captivate us with an incredible 17 shows spanning across the UK and Ireland in September. After a two-year hiatus for his mental wellbeing, he’s making a triumphant return to the stage, and I can hardly wait!

By 9 am, it was disclosed that his devoted followers had snapped up all tickets, according to Lewis. As a result, the performer decided to add more dates to the tour, yet these performances also quickly sold out, marking the fastest-selling tour in his history.

Disappointed spectators, unable to obtain tickets, have criticized Ticketmaster for ejecting them from the line or experiencing technical issues during the purchasing process.

On Thursdays, Lewis shared on Instagram his astonishment over the swift sell-out of his tour, expressing gratitude towards fans for their unwavering support, and offering apologies to those who were unable to secure tickets due to the high demand.

In a heartfelt message, Lewis shared that he won’t schedule any more shows at this time to avoid overexerting himself after making his comeback on stage.

This morning, Lewis mentioned he was scheduling additional shows, and later on, he shared, “By exactly 9 am, all tickets were sold out, leaving me utterly amazed!” (Emotional expression replaced with a more common one.)

Amazingly, I find myself announcing that we’re adding fresh dates right now, which will go on sale shortly. You can find them on the same link, so remember to check it frequently.

In just an hour’s time, I proudly announced that both the initial and additional batches of my offerings had been swiftly snapped up by enthusiastic followers.

‘Lewis wasn’t anticipating anything like this… He hadn’t had a clue what to expect after such a lengthy hiatus, so the fact that this tour is selling out faster than any other he’s ever embarked on is an indescribably wonderful, dreamlike sensation ❤️.’

I want to express my gratitude to each of you who managed to secure a ticket, and I apologize deeply to those who wished to join but couldn’t due to ticket availability this time around.

For the time being, I’m taking a break from performing additional shows to ensure I don’t overexert myself right away. Many of you who were eagerly awaiting ticket sales this morning will be pleased to hear that there will be more opportunities to see me perform in the future.

On Thursday morning, disgruntled supporters of the performer took aim at Ticketmaster, venting their frustration over the site’s collapse due to high demand for tickets.

I can’t believe it. I gave up trying to get Lewis Capaldi tickets today. I was in the waiting room by 8:42 am and at the front of the queue by 9:02 am, but then a message popped up saying they were sold out. To make matters worse, an extra date has been added, but when I tried to get in line at the 25,000th spot, the system crashed. No tickets for the third day! It’s just my luck.

‘The fact that we didn’t win the battle for Lewis Capaldi’s Ticketmaster tickets is surprisingly humbling.’

‘It’s quite surprising how quickly Birmingham Lewis Capaldi tickets were snapped up by fans in just 6 seconds.’

I waited for ages at Ticketmaster for Lewis Capaldi’s Sunday show, but there were just a handful of tickets left in front of me! (Just kidding, not really a crowd issue with Lewis!)”.

Two years back, I owned tickets to see Lewis Capaldi but unfortunately never attended. I wasted an hour standing in a futile queue, competing with everyone from Joe Schmoe to man’s best friend, only to come up empty-handed. In my opinion, Ticketmaster is nothing short of a global swindle. It’s incredibly unfair.

Is there anyone who can explain to me the level of corruption in ticket sales in the UK? I wasn’t able to buy tickets for Oasis, Coldplay, or Lewis Capaldi even though I was online and waiting in line, but within seconds they were being sold on Viagogo for three times the original price. It seems like Ticketmaster is running a scam.

#Ticketmaster is widely perceived as a deceptive corporation, subjecting genuine customers to numerous security measures…only to deny entry at the last minute when they reach Space 1. However, these tickets are swiftly snapped up by scalpers, resulting in immediate sell-outs. See you someday, Lewis Capaldi.

‘Ticketmaster count your f***in days. as if it’s frozen on lewis capaldi tickets AGAIN,’;

I can’t believe how Ticketmaster messed up. I was at the front of the Lewis Capaldi queue, but suddenly there was an issue, and now I find myself way back in line, about 8k positions behind.

Oh, I managed to join the queue for Lewis Capaldi tickets on Ticketmaster, but they wouldn’t allow me to choose my own seats, and then they kicked me out of the queue.

Is it possible that Ticketmaster has encountered an issue, as it seems unusual for a Lewis Capaldi concert in Cardiff to be sold out so quickly when we joined the queue at number 1099.

In a recent health update on Wednesday, Lewis shared that he has stopped taking antidepressants and is currently experiencing his best feelings in a while.

A week or so past, the musician from Glasgow resumed his musical journey with a grand, heartfelt performance at Glastonbury – quite a spectacle!

Two years later, nearly to the day, he found himself back on the identical stage where he had once collapsed, leading him to take a break for self-improvement, focusing on both his physical and mental wellbeing.

After stepping back from the spotlight for a while and escaping the stresses associated with stardom, Capaldi reports that he is currently in a good place and has stopped using Sertraline, an antidepressant.

Lewis shared with his followers during a live stream that he is no longer taking antidepressants. He made this announcement following his comeback, which was marked by the release of his new hit single “Survive,” currently at the top of the charts.

It was incredibly challenging for me to discontinue taking Sertraline. To put it mildly, I managed to wean myself off it, though discussing the experience might be best left for another time. Today, I want to focus on positive topics and share fewer personal details.

He later added: ‘I’ve felt the best I’ve felt in a long time through therapy.

Embracing the fact that anxiety is likely a permanent part of my personality is quite significant. It’s more about how I react to anxiety, rather than trying to eliminate it completely.
