SONY BMG Music Entertainment (UK) Ltd. sucks!

<rant>
Last November I wrote about my disappointment at missing Brandi Carlile's London gig. So in attempt at being proactive and avoiding further disappointment I signed up to the notifications facility on her UK website, which is run and managed by SONY BMG Music Entertainment (UK) Ltd.

Lo and behold, I received an e-mail from them this evening saying:

Hi Jon

Good news! Brandi will be back in the UK for 2 shows in late July! The London show is sold out but there are still some tickets available for the July 26 show.

26th July - Sage Gateshead SummerTyne Festival, Newcastle (Buy Tickets)

28th July - Mean Fiddler @ Arts Theatre, London (Sold Out)

- 2008 SONY BMG Music Entertainment (UK) Ltd


SOLD OUT!
SOLD OUT?!?!?!?!?

Why send me an e-mail telling me that the gig is sold out? I'd rather not have known she was playing in London.

Why wasn't the e-mail sent out before the tickets went on sale?

Those idiots at SONY BMG Music Entertainment (UK) Ltd. really, really, SUCK.
