The great war - TS tickets

Taylor Swift announced her Eras tour in Asia, initially there were only 3 shows in Sg, then expanded to 6 shows because we are the only Asian country she's coming besides Japan, so the whole Asia, including China will be fighting for the tickets.

So, the registration for the tickets were easy on Wednesday, I got in at first try. The website went down a bit and it was reported that 22 million people registered for the ticket-buying.

22 million. That's 4 times the number of people in SG. 

So 5/7 was the first try: UOB pre-sales. My queue number was 600k. It was sold out in 3 hours and none of us managed to get any tickets. 
Second try, Friday 7/7. I was in office that day so I couldn't really join the great war (also, I totally forgot about it haha). And I didn't have the access code coz I was in wait list. 
But there was a UOB reserved and also a Klook. The UOB reserved was sold out and eventually I got in the Klook one at 5pm. 

2 VIP 1 tickets and a night stay at Andaz for $3600. I gave up. Neab actually bought a pair of VIP 5 ticket and stay at holiday inn for $1155, which was... also expensive.

Anyway Eric and I totally gave up, in the end all that was left in the general sale was $600 or $1200 per ticket. I guess I'll just have to go to her London concert hahah.

Well, at least I've got Coldplay!! And also my hope lies with Zac...
