This will mark The Smiths frontman and lyricist’s first show in California since last year’s fiasco at The Greek Theatre. After showing up late to his set he proceeded to perform a total of nine songs before suddenly and unceremoniously walking off stage. It’s hardly the first time Morrissey has pulled a stunt like this — at this point it’s become something of a punchline — one that fans roll the dice on when buying tickets and braving traffic to catch him in concert. The one solace they have is that this time around they’ll be indoors anxiously waiting to find out if their money, time, and energy have been well spent.

“Gonna say the AC is set too low,” @andrej3k_ commented in response to the announcement, referencing a possible excuse for the singer/songwriter’s hasty exit.

Another Instagram user expressed the hope this time wouldn’t devolve into another debacle: “I’ve actually never experienced him bail or walk off at a show so I’m hoping the streak continues,” @mario_delarge wrote.

Still others like @moodyspookysexy found themselves voicing what everyone — even diehard fans — must find themselves thinking everytime he announces a tour: “why do people keep paying for him”?

What Are Official Platinum Tickets?

If you see expensive tickets that are not VIP packages, those are official platinum tickets. These tickets are offered well over standard ticket prices, which is unfair to fans. The Event Organizer(s) have priced these tickets according to their market value (aka dynamic pricing). In other words, ticket pricing can go up or down and usually goes up.

Official platinum tickets do not include VIP packages. The only positive thing about them is that they make buying floor or front-row tickets to a high-demand concert easy if you’re willing to shed the extra cash. They can sometimes be purchased during a presale without a presale code. Availability and pricing for official platinum tickets are subject to change based on demand.

Pro Tips When Buying Your Tickets

First, on the day of the presale or general onsale (whichever you prefer), login to your Ticketmaster account (go to my account or sign in located on the upper right corner of the page) 30 minutes ahead of the sale time. If you don’t have one, create one now.

Be sure to add your billing info (aka credit card info) before jumping into the digital queue for a quick check-out. Once the presale starts, remain in the digital queue. Only use one browser window because using multiple browsers or devices and multiple accounts with the same phone number can result in errors. Trust, it’s happened to us before! Don’t refresh your page, do be patient, don’t leave your page, do get those tickets!

What To Do If Tickets Are Sold Out?

If tickets sell out, your other option is to buy them via online resellers like VividSeats or StubHub. When all else fails, we prefer these resell options because both offer a 100% Guarantee. You can also purchase resale tickets through Ticketmaster’s resale program. Just search for the concert or event you want to attend, and see if any resale tickets are available. We recommend comparing the three options to determine which one works best for you.

Also, more standard tickets are often released in the weeks leading up to the show date. We’ve seen it with Oasis, Nine Inch Nails, BLACKPINK, and many more. These tickets are normally production release tickets and sideview/limited-view tickets. It’s a secret gatekept by many, but if you’re reading this, now you know.
