Royal Blood announced yesterday (11 September) that they'll be playing a special homecoming gig in Brighton this December, and tickets went on sale this morning, prompting a desperate scramble amongst fans.
Tickets went on sale at 9am this morning - and some people have been lucky enough to get tickets for the gig, which takes place on 20 December.

Not everyone was so lucky though, with one fan referencing the great Peter Andre and referring to the demand as "insania."

Dear Brighton Dome website, go suck a railroad spike. Couldn't handle the Royal Blood demand. At least I still got Pompy tickets.
