A massive 84% of Gigwise readers believe that Led Zeppelin fans are the victims of Harvey Goldsmith’s ticket code clampdown.

On Tuesday, concert promoter Goldsmith announced stringent measures which prevented successful ballot winners from selling their tickets on to others seemingly to stop touts.

However, this has come under harsh criticism from many fans who claim that this was not stipulated properly beforehand and that it is themselves who are being penalised – not the touts whom Goldsmith is seemingly trying to stop. 

Out of over 2,000 people polled over the past five days, 84% said that the fans were the casualties of the system, while only 9% said the touts were the victims. 5% said both were victims while the remainder were unsure.

As reported earlier today, Goldsmith is unwavering in his stance on what he calls the “parasitic businesses” that he is clamping down on.

Gigwise has been inundated with messages from fans from all over the globe who have bought ticket codes at inflated prices to the November 26 show at the O2 Arena.

They say that they bought these codes not knowing that a credit card and photo ID matching the winners’ name would be needed to guarantee entry.
