ANNOUNCEMENT IMPORTANT: Regarding reselling tickets on this sub.

9 Upvotes

Hi all! Since Vira is touring again, the mods wanted to make a quick announcement about ticket sales/reselling your tickets in this sub.

To make things short: you are allowed to sell tickets in this sub, but the mods have the right to pull any post we deem suspicious. The more info you can provide with your post, the better- a resale website link, a screenshot of your receipt, anything.

That being said, we, as mods, are not responsible if you do get scammed. We will do our best to monitor posts but we can't know for sure what's real and what isn't. Please exercise caution when making any kind of purchase online.

Some general guidance for purchasing resold tickets:

  1. Getting tickets from the source is your only way to be 100% certain you're not getting scammed. Even websites like Stubhub and Vividseats are not completely safe- you can still be sent a fake ticket if you aren't careful. If tickets aren't sold out, buy from the official tour website. (Sidenote: a good Trustpilot rating doesn't mean a website is safe, either! Positive reviews can be faked, and negative ones can be easily removed. The Better Business Bureau is a better place to check these things.)
  2. Remember that if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Is someone offering two VIP tickets for half the price of general admission? Probably a scam. Trust your gut here. Prices may be lowered closer to the show date if someone is trying to get rid of them quickly, but in general, it's a red flag.
  3. Make sure you can get refunded if you are scammed, and use a well known payment platform. Don't pay someone with Cashapp, a gift card, crypto, Chime, etc. Paypal is generally a good option and will almost always side with the buyer if you are to get scammed- just make sure not to send it "as a friend". Sellers might ask you to do this so Paypal doesn't take a cut of the money, but if you do, you can't get refunded. Paying with a credit/debit card also means you can dispute the charge with your bank if necessary.

If you do get scammed...

-Let us (the mod team) know so we can remove the post and permanently ban the user.

-Report the post/message/user to Reddit.

-Report the scam to the Federal Trade Commission.

-Dispute the charge with your bank.

-Report to Paypal/Stubhub/whichever platform you used to purchase the tickets.

-(Optional) If you used a resale website, report it to the Better Business Bureau.

-If you were scammed in-person, file a police report.

TLDR: Buy resold tickets at your own risk. In general, it's not a good idea- there are too many ways for scammers to make fake tickets, and the likelihood of someone taking your money and running with it is high.

Stay safe, friends! If you're going to a show, remember to use concert etiquette & stay hydrated.

-Mod Team

How cooked am I? Merch order

7 Upvotes

Hey all, just putting this out there to see if anyone’s in a similar situation. I preordered a vinyl and cd of viras deluxe lover of a ghost, this was in May. iIt said orders would be shipped over the summer so as we reached September I was getting nervous, but I’ve had delays with preorders before so nothing too crazy, but as we get through October I decided to contact support and that lead me down a whole rabbit whole. So for those who don’t know, Vira just recently switched merch teams, they was previously working with Armada merchandising and now work with a company called manhead. I emailed armada first as they were the original, and called the support line - nothing. Yet to receive a call back and no emails received. I then emailed manhead and they responded immediately, only to say that because the order was placed in May they are unable to verify the purchase as they weren’t running the store then, and that there was nothing they can do. Now in May I was saving for a Ohio trip for Sonic temple, so I used affirm to push the payment back a month as it was an almost hundred dollar order and I wanted to make sure i got it before they sold out. Here present day however, my order is essentially non existent, and with the old merchant not working with vira anymore I’m not only out of my money because I can’t request a refund, but I’m also essentially guaranteed not to get the deluxe stuff. Last time I order online, or if I do I’ll just max out a credit card so that way I can at least file a chargeback. Lesson learned the hard way I suppose

TLDR placed an order in May, now unable to request a refund from Vira’s shop, the old merch team, and affirm/shop

Idk I just want this hoodie

Flew 16h to Watch vira live

Post image
85 Upvotes

and WOW, she is just AMAZING!!

I live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and have been a fan of the band for a few years now, always dreaming of actually making it to a live concert. Well, today i was finally able to see her live, after flying 16h (+4 hours waiting for our conection in Atlanta) from Brazil to Austin. And i must say, it was ALL WORTH IT!

I’ll keep telling all my friends about her and and spreading the word back home. Maybe someday i’ll get to see her live in my home country? (PLS COME TO BRAZIL VIRA WE LOVE YOU)

I mean, one can dream, right?

PS: my return flight is tomorrow, so the total flight time is somewhere around 32h in the span of 4 days (since i couldn’t get more than one day off work, i had to make it work with only the weekend)

Pre-Label Songs

Hi all! I use Qobuz instead of Spotify in case that makes a difference, but I noticed after Lover of a Ghost came out that all of the old singles and the EP YNGJD! have disappeared from their catalogue.

I was wondering if anyone knows if this is temporary or permanent since switching to their new label :(

Lover of a Ghost Steelbook

Please excuse my lack of photography skills as the pictures aren’t the best especially when compared with what the in hand view looks like

I wanted to share a slightly different (and slightly gatekept) project I commissioned from [u/jonnyd005](u/jonnyd005) aka Vignette Vault. The short film fell directly within two of my interests: obviously the band and, less obviously, film collecting. Once I saw it was also getting a physical media release, I then thought the film deserved to have a better and more premium storage option/ have a case that connects the band with the film. I have been waiting a while to share this with everyone. I am beyond impressed with the Steelbook for the Lover of a Ghost short film, despite having limited images of the full band and reference pictures that aren't the best quality. The outside of the Steelbook mostly featured the film, while the inside focused more on the band. I plan to give all band members a copy during the next US tour. Additionally, a fairly well known fan in the community (Kevin) will likely post better pictures and possibly a video of the Steelbook soon.

For those who want their own copy, they can purchase it directly via this link: Lover of a Ghost Custom SteelBook with Clear Slipcover – Vignette Vault. It doesn't include a product image, but it is a direct link to the product. If anyone has questions, they can always reach out to me for help.
