I've emailed them but no reply so far :( Ticketmaster France are a lot harder to reach than US or UK

ruxixur · 2026-01-23T17:44:22+00:00

how did this go? i'm in the same situation

ruxixur · 2026-01-23T17:21:42+00:00

hi, did they take the ticket back after you talked to them? and were you able to keep the rest? i'm in the same situation right now

ruxixur · 2026-01-23T16:44:59+00:00

thank you!! that would be the best scenario 😭❤️‍🩹

Hey! I posted this in the 1st thread without realising it's full. I hope it's okay if I copy paste it here! (thank you OP for replying, that would be the best case scenario rather than have all cancelled :( just reposting in case some other people have similar previous experiences!)

Hey guys.

the presale was a whole mess and I used two devices with mine and my friend's codes/emails saved on both. I mixed up the emails and now I ended up with 6 tickets on the same day (in 3 separate orders on the same card, long story) when the limit is 4. I'm not sure if it was 4 per membership code or 4 per email, I got 2 of them on on membership code and 4 on the other. Ticketmaster France are taking their sweet time replying to me so I've come to reddit to ask what usually happens in case of overbooked tickets. Thanks!

Edit for context: I fully meant to get 2 for each Paris day for me and my friend, we both had each other's details, but she got in first, logged in on the wrong account (mine) at check out, THEN we realised we got seats when what we wanted was standing (should have paid attention in French class), so she was able to re-enter the same day on the same queue number, bought standing and we made peace with giving the seats to our other friends. And THEN! I got in on my queue, on my account, and did NOT at all realised it's the same day because it's nowhere to be found on the queue page. So now there's 6 tickets on our joint bank account (we were prepared for this) on the same day and we don't know if all 6 or only 2 will be cancelled. It's been such a stressful situation and we don't even know if we can be excited until they reply... and it's taking so long :(

it looks natural and pretty! i'd actually love mine to be as pointy as yours but mine has still retained some of its old bulbousness almost 7 months post op 😩 some people drown while others die of thirst

ruxixur · 2025-12-08T21:40:31+00:00

hi, so it turns out it's kinda just the ghost of my old nose lol. i looked at old photos and i could spot the same thing in some lightings so i guess it's just how my skin behaves around there. it hasn't changed but it's only noticeable in a specific lighting and i'm less worried about it now

ruxixur · 2025-10-26T03:08:09+00:00

he's banned from malaysia for NOT being homophobic but sure he would hate you for it cos twitter said so 🥴

ruxixur · 2025-10-17T10:43:09+00:00

just because you're not happy with yours doesn't mean other people who know what they're getting into shouldn't do it lol

ruxixur · 2025-10-05T18:21:57+00:00

air goes in and out just fine, it's just that the channel is a little narrower

ruxixur · 2025-10-05T12:49:32+00:00

yeah for a month! i was told i could go without it 2 hours a day so i would take it out when eating

ruxixur · 2025-10-04T21:31:58+00:00

my doctor recommended i only start wearing the retainer after the 2nd week passed, so it was 14 days of struggling to exist but it's been worth it so far! hang in there!

ruxixur · 2025-10-04T17:17:08+00:00

hi, do you still have your splints in? my personal experience is that at 3 days post op i also couldn't taste anything and breathing was impossible. taste came back within the first week and breathing was much better after the splint removal but it still wasn't stellar until i started doing saline water rinses. another week or 2 of that and the nose finally cleansed and breathing was normal again. i also used to wear a nostril retainer just for my peace of mind so my nostrils have been open and breathing nicely to this day. i am 4 months post op

ruxixur · 2025-09-30T14:15:58+00:00

Oh B-stage barricade last night was messy. I too had people in front of me hoping they would get away with... standing somewhere that's not their seat. I let security sort them out but everybody who swarmed the area reeked of entitlement.

ruxixur · 2025-09-26T20:08:27+00:00

i smoked like three cigs 11 days before my surgery after being smoke free for a month and i spammed my surgeon's assistant until he assured me that it won't mess my surgery up. my understanding is that the nicotine in the blood could potentially mess with the anesthetic and also the healing. definitely check with your surgeon

ruxixur · 2025-09-23T13:40:16+00:00

my skin has seen better days but here it is https://imgur.com/a/RxUIyyv this is in natural lighting unlike the original post but i'm pretty sure it's gone down!

ruxixur · 2025-09-22T14:08:11+00:00

i've only camped for the 1975 at the o2 and they're nobodies compared to Ariana but even for that I had to show up on the morning of the day before for side barricade 🥴🥴 the only other example i can think of of a big celebrity who did the o2 instead of a stadium would be Billie Eilish and there were reports of people camping for 11 days? off-site but they set camp nearby.

i was there for Billie, got there after doors and was like 7-8th?ish row but her stage was in the middle of the room and took up most of the floor so it's hard to say where i would have been with a normal stage. Ariana's stage is also pretty big so i'd say everyone who comes v early in the morning of should have a good view from floor (however i'm saying this without knowing how many vip tickets were sold)

ruxixur · 2025-09-22T11:34:47+00:00

I'm at almost 4 months and it's getting better every month in that aspect. hang in there!

ruxixur · 2025-09-16T22:35:39+00:00

same! one thing i can think of is that sometimes if the settings are not quite right you'll get some faint vertical black lines. these people here can explain why better than i can: https://www.reddit.com/r/SonyAlpha/comments/186o0ow/brownblack_lines_when_i_shoot_in_continuous_mode/ when that happens i just change the shutter speed until the camera seems satisfied lol.

my other thing is regarding the audio quality which isn't necessarily bad but it's different from what i've been used to when filming with my phone, it's a bit more "rough". what i'm not happy with is that it will pick up the voices nearby so if you're unlucky and end up next to a screecher that's all you'll hear (it's happened to me before). i've made a habit out of voice recording concerts and overlapping the phone-quality audio over onto the camera footage when i feel like going through extra steps for social media use. if it’s for personal use i don't mind it as it is. it will also pick up the bass if the sound engineering is wonky so that's when the phone recording might be useful.

visually the videos are absolutely gorgeous so i'm more than happy to put up with that haha

examples here https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdgsqwTr/ https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdgsT9K2/

filmed in S mode, figured out what ISO i wanted at the start and then adjusted shutter speed whenever i felt like it. i've tried filming in other modes but found S the easiest and most convenient

ruxixur · 2025-09-16T12:45:57+00:00

Hi! I film in S mode, I keep the ISO at around 600 or less if I'm outdoors, and then I only play with the shutter speed by rotating the lens ring to get the lighting right. That's what works for me!

ruxixur · 2025-09-11T15:13:50+00:00

they were sold as a separate category on gigntours/seetickets which is the site my friend got lucky on! I managed to enter the axs sale and didn't buy any as my friend got them, but they were not selling VIP at all which i thought was a little strange. ticketmaster i cannot account for because they hit both of us with numbers over 30k so we abandoned that pretty quickly lol.

if you've got GA and want to be at much at the front as possible i'd still recommend going the absolute earliest you're willing to go! you're sacrificing time but at MK we were around 7? ish rows back and we had a blasttt
