    It doesn't look like anyone is coming off of their Moline GA's, so how about Detroit, St. Louis or Memphis GA's??
    Anyone out there with a spare pair of GA's to any of these shows that would like to swap for a pair of Cincinnati GA's, please let me know. Thank you

    Joseph, I really appreciate the offer. But I'm hoping to trade for another pair of GA's to either St. Louis, Detroit, Memphis or Moline.

    How do ppl keep ending up with these extra PAIRS of 10C tix when so many folks were shut out? I'm seeing ppl looking for the swaps constantly, and more power to you, but sucks that this system has resulted in some folks having an over abundance of riches and others got crappy seats. #firstworldpains

    I'm sure it's working out somewhere but based on the number of threads it doesn't look easy. Good luck.

    Cant speak for everyone but I know last tour husbands/wives were both putting in for the same shows to increase their odds of winning, and some fortunate couples struck gold and won 2 GA pairs to the same show. So then they would try to trade for another.

    Exactly. They go in with their buddies, or husbands, or wives, or even make larger "teams." They then stagger their choices so that one person's sixth choice might be someone else's first choice. It's further staggered so that you wouldn't have the same show as two consecutive choices.

    For example, here's a fake tour in which three people are trying for four shows. If one person wins GA, they've got two people covered. With enough work, the third person can get into GA.

    Person 1:
    Las Vegas GA
    San Francisco Reserved
    Sacramento Reserved
    Los Angeles GA
    Las Vegas Reserved
    SF GA
    Sacramento GA
    LA Reserved

    Person 2:
    Sacramento GA
    Los Angeles Reserved
    Las Vegas Reserved
    San Francisco GA
    LA Reserved
    Sacramento Reserved
    Las Vegas GA
    SF Reserved

    Person 3:
    SF Reserved
    LA Reserved
    LA GA
    Sacramento GA
    Las Vegas Reserved
    SF GA
    Las Vegas GA
    Sacramento Reserved



    You then trade bait with others to get what you want. And yes, some people win GA and may want reserved or vice-versa.

    It's the people that would put their choices entirely by seating category (GA or reserved) or by city ...say both SF choices followed by both LA choices and so forth that wouldn't probably win much.

    I appreciate everyone's time on this topic. But I've decided to take my son to the Cincinnati show. Thanks
