Hi there,

I'm a student studying Mandarin at NTNU for this summer, from Toronto. The radiohead show I had tickets for was in Toronto, but it was suddenly cancelled in June on the day of the show because the stage collapsed and killed their drumming technician (Link: http://reut.rs/LlNS7N) It was really sad... Anyway, now that I'm here I would love to go to see them while I'm in Taipei. Does anyone have 1 ticket they need to get rid of?

Also, I don't really know anyone or other websites to post so if you have any ideas where to go / where to post please let me know... PM me or email me at robbe (at) email (dot) com

Please help a foreigner out!

Thanks so much :)
Robb from Toronto

There's a local Facebook page dedicated to people trying to get rid of their extra Radiohead tickets. Seem to be quite a few A-Section and B-section tickets available at original prices. I'd say let they eedjits who bought 10 tickets each and until recently were trying to ask way over face NT$ value stew, serves them right, although a lot of the blame lies with the joke of a local promotion/production company that broke Radiohead's 4 tickets per CC standard policy and allowed them to buy 10 each. Regardless, if anyone's looking for tickets, you can check it out here.

Ok great! Someone here just PM'd me offering me their ticket that they said cost them $5000 NT. Is that the going rate for A-level tickets? I actually don't need to be A-level, so I'll check out that site see what I can find. Thanks for your help! :)

No, A-Section tickets were NT4,000 as offered by Radiohead to the public. There are several being offered at that price at the Facebook link above as well as B-Section tickets at their original prices of NT$2,500. Don't feed the scalpers.

New available tickets pop up every day... keep trying. That's how I managed to get 4 A-Sections to replace my B-Sections, but it was one by one.
I predict there will be more and more as the concert grows closer and since they're already selling at original price, who knows, the scalpers might end up losing money. :lol:
