On their homepage, they said "tickets are sold out in Brighton venues" and forced people to ticket master. We assumed that meant that they'd be hard to get, and were hedging for luck.<br /><i>Beachdown should not have put that message out</i><br /><br />2. I don't know how bad their finances were, but they should have allowed some measure of interest; for example, we'd have expressed interest if there was a way to do so, and that level of interest might have been enough to tip a balance.<br /><i>Who knows how bad the sales were, but some visibility into on-the-door sales would have been valuable to them.</i><br /><br />Speaking personally, I used to be someone who would get organised weeks or months in advance of any event. Now I'm the sort of guy who organises myself 1-2 days before. I'm sure I'm represenative of a trend where advance ticket sales are decreasingly a measure of success.<br /><br />How bad could it have been that the bank would rather lose the existing investment than attempt to recoup some costs? Must've been bad.<br /><br />My heart goes out to the organisers.Justin Rolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915175425287249089noreply@blogger.com
