Fans freak out amidst difficulties in buying Adele North American Concert Tickets


Tickets for the North American leg of her world tour went on sale Thursday at 10 a.m. local time, and many people took to Twitter to vent about the technical difficulties that made it nearly impossible to score good seats in a timely manner. Adele's first concert in the U.S. is scheduled for July 5, 2016 in Minnesota.

So, what's an Adele fan to do when Adele's website won't work?

Rest assured, they'll still be able to see the "Hello" singer when she takes her act on the road next year. The Grammy winner, 27, has teamed up with Songkick, a website that specializes in ticket sales through musicians' websites and fan clubs.

Songkick is selling 235,000 tickets to Adele's concerts through her website. By tracking the customers who tried to place orders, the company said it was able to block 53,000 sales to known or likely scalpers when her European tickets went on sale. "By selling the highest number of tickets we were able to through our own channels, and working with Songkick and their technology, we have done everything within our power to get as many tickets as possible in the hands of the fans who have waited for years to see her live," Jonathan Dickins, Adele's manager, said (via The New York Times). According to one estimate, Songkick has saved customers more than $6.5 million in markups on secondary ticketing sites.
