Lost 20,000 SEK on Roxette tickets

by

As we know Roxette’s comeback gig was moved from Anderstorp till Halmstad. Suprisingly, not only the oragnizer and the place were changed but also the ticket’s price – it became cheaper. But Röke Buss’s company which bought 200 tickets is not happy about this fact.

NorraSkåne.se informs about Lars Erlingsson, Röke Buss owner, who bought 200 tickets and paid 125,000 SEK in total for them. However, since the concert was later moved to Halmstad and the price for one standing ticket was reduced by 100 SEK, which means that Lars Erlingsson paid in the end 20,000 SEK more for the tickets. “We have tried to make contact with the dealer, but we cannot find them. Neither via email or telephone,” he tells the newspaper.

The newspaper also tried to get in touch with Biljettnu.se but they only got the answering machine informing that the Biljettnu.se are valid, whatever all articles published during the past days.

Per Gessle: “It’s terrible that a fan from Russia or Argentina travels all the way to Sweden and has an invalid ticket”

Biljettnu.se wants to sue Per Gessle for the interview he has given few days ago. Per Gessle answered to Biljettnu.se via Aftonbladet, “all information around the AC/DC gig that I gave to the media, I have received from various sources – including Live Nation”. He apologizes in case the information is incorrect, but is at the same time glad that these things come to the light thanks to media’s interest. “It is terrible that, for instance, a fan from Russia or Argentina saves up money to buy a ticket online, travels all the way to Sweden and cannot be admitted because the ticket is invalid,” he tells Aftonbladet.

Hallandsposten talks about the troubles with BiljettNu and LiveNation. You can read the article in Swedish on HallandPosten.se.

Aftonbladet also reports about this: We have contacted with our lawyer and we will sue them [Live Nation and Gessle?] for unfair imputation. They have no idea what they are talking about. None of what Per Gessle says is true, says Magnus Nilsson to Aftonbladet.
