Metallica pre-sale? Tulsa OK on 1/19/19?

I have a pre-sale code for the Metallica web site: <CODES REMOVED>

As a paying spotify customer this 'you have to losten to this specific artist all day to get the code' is bullcrap. I pay for my spotify out of my own pocket and use it 5 out of 7 days a week to make my salon a more pleasant place to work instesd of listening to the same 8 songs on the radio all day long. Metallica isn't exactly family friendly in a franchise salon environment. But that doesnt mean my family and I don't like Matallica! I wanted to get tickets for my mom and mother in law but may not be able to if it's sold out by Friday partly due to you picking and choosing which of your paying customers to send codes too. Thanks for the false hope spotify.

should of just joined their fan club. I did yesterday and got a presale
code for tickets that went on sale today.

I totally agree. Spotify pre sale code is the one code youshould never count on. It's like a gift.

Anyone have one for imagine dragons?

This is so incredibly frustrating. I've been a huge Metallica fan since 1986. Listen to them on Spotify PREMIUM and in actual CDs. Did I get a code? Nope! This sends a very bad sign to your paying customers, Spotify. This way of rewarding only certain customers you choose based on some nebulous thing is **bleep**. I've actively promoted Spotify to my friends for a long time, but you've soured a once truly loyal customer.

Anyone have the presale code for metallica? It's in half an hour and I don't have the code 😞

May have to reconsider my spotify commitment! Thats kinda crappy that only a select few recieve the benefit, Im certain I pay the same amount for my service as they do! If not more considering I have the family plan.

Anyone have the presale code for Yeah Yeah Yeahs in Chicago? Preale starts in like 5 minutes - they are my most listened to artist but I didn't get code! 😕

Have the Imagine Dragons Presale codes been released?  Looking at Syracuse tickets.  Thanks...

Hello! When said "Codes are sent to listeners who our data indicate stream particular artists the most" meaning only STREAMING or does OFFLINE (when you save it from Spotify) also counts? Because this can be very confusing; All my music is from Spotify, but I "save" it and downloaded it so I can be able to listen to it even if Im on an airplane.Please clarify. Thanks

What qualifies as a super listener? Cus i've been an avid listener of Dirty Projectors for years and got nothing about this pre-sale. Pretty lame guys.

This is an awesome feature! I'm often disappointed when scalpers grab up tickets to see my favorite bands. This is an excellent way to make sure that true music fans are able to enjoy their favorite artists without being gauged or prevented from doing so by middle men. Thank you, Spotify!!!

Was really hoping for the presale code to Ray LaMontagne and Neko Case At Mass Mocha June 29th - huge fan of both and listen to Ray daily!! Please please please??

Same here, been following both for a while, what gives Spotify?
