    what people with this idea should do is not be young and stupid with their credit cards and be happy with what you already have. personally i think this approach is selfish and in essense what you are doing is creating the headach for the rest of us who have no tickets yet and have to deal with people like yourself who are just buying them up and don't really need them. thanks dude...


    I am 40 years old, good with my money and want to possibly sit closer than section 300. I have the right to by as many tickets as I want and wouldnt you rather have someone like me buy extra tickets and sell them at cost rather than scalpers buying them and selling them at an outrageous price. You are rather naive and I know one person who won't be getting my tickets at cost. :)

    well.. I tried and i tried hard...missed work...left work for a hour..etc...ignored my family as i stressed out and screamed and cried ...today was the worst...i was really hopeful...was so sad. My friends at work were wondering what happened to me...they knew i was crying...really i am sad...to cry...but anyway i dont even want to try on Friday- what am i going to tell work this time?...I do have to say that i am the type where misery loves company...glad im not the only diehard that keeps getting shut out- why can' we do it like we used to? through the mail...i always had a ticket...this way really really sucks.
    The Waiting Drove Me Mad Your Finally Here And Im A Mess....

    i tell ya i don't like to criticize 10c too much but they also have to look at this situation and ???? it there just has to be a better way ,so here we are left with just 2 options as i see it go and try again on friday or just pay thru the nose with a ticket scalper ,the only reason i wan't to score some tickets to MSG is to be able to take my son who is now 14 and ready to see this great band otherwise i would not even be trying at all ............
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    I was going to take my daughter, who is turning 12 on June 25th. Her friggin birthday. I dont know what I did wrong. I had a lightning fast connection....refreshed every second for 5 minutes leading up to the time....was logged in. WTF? I love the 10club and they have always done me justice....I am grateful for all they do. But this was a bad 1. Even the 1st round of fan club seats was crazy. The site was completely crashed as soon as they went up. I thought it was SENIORITY BASED. Not 1st come 1st serve. I know the seating is seniority based, but not the distribution. My member number is in the low 100,000's. I should get a seat before a 300,000....period.

    I'm in the same boat and completely agree
    10C's always done right by me and it couldn't have been easy to organize a 2nd presale with tbastd
    but that said, i'm 3 for 3 as well (5 for 5 if I count vic and ed solo)
    its also tough that a coworker is in dead and allman's clubs and gets tix no problem through snail mail
    i know all is not lost and i'm working any angle i can barring a broker, but i'm soo bummed this will be 1st tour i'm not able to use my 10C # to get tix

    BRING BACK SNAIL MAIL, PLEASE

    Jesus, people. It's a simple matter of demand being far greater than supply. If there are more people who want tickets than tickets to be distributed, some people will be shut out regardless of the system. (By the way, the more you toy with random seating, the worse this well get.)

    Unfortunately, the postcard method wouldn't solve anything at this point. If you remember the last of the postcard tours (2003), there were too many requests for MSG and members were asked to volunteer for tickets to a different show.

    Yes but the more senior members got the tickets. I'm sure brokers join the 10c the week before the presale starts.

    Ah, that's some real New York thinking. Those of us who grew up in the boroughs would go "into the city" i.e. Manhattan. But growing up in Astoria I was closer to mid town then some people living in Manhattan, and technically the boroughs ARE the city of New York.

    Except Staten Island. That's pretty much New Jersey. ;)




    Just kiddin', my step daughter lives on SI .

    KJ

    I know, I live in one of the boroughs too but I'm from Long Island, so I always say going 'into the city' I consider 'the city' Manhattan ;)

    and Staten Island? WHAT? Where's that? Man oh man.
    That's like the Seinfeld episode where Kramer couldn't date the girl that lived on 1st St and 1st Ave b/c it was too far downtown!

    I don't know if it's any better but i think they go on sale via all means, outlets, phone and online

    You can look up the phone #'s online or on the website.
    the 212 # is 212-307-7171

    I imagine it would be really hard to get through on the phone and probably faster with a high speed Internet connection

    Just make sure you go on right at 10 for the public on-sale and you will finally have your tickets.
    The less you know, the more you believe.
