    There are plenty of hotels in the area with availability. Unfortunately, 3 nights will cost over $2000. On the bright side, that is LESS than ONE single ticket is going for for ONE single night. That is PRECISELY why I booked early. I paid just under $600 for 3 nights at the Hilton. The catch was that I had to pre-pay, it was non-refundable, and I had to book it MONTHS before tickets even went on SALE.

    Good move. I have a friend who got a spare room if I'm able to score tickets, which will be very, very difficult. I do have 1 "special" friend who might make this happen though. An "old" timer in the business has come through for me every time so far. This is asking A LOT!
    My friend was able to score 2 tickets for each show in Chicago! Not the back-stage passes he has ALWAYS gotten for Dead shows but at least we're in the building. This coming July 4th weekend in Chicago is going to be one fantastic TRIP.
    Any extras?

    Already bought the 5 show webcast, and have secured ridiculously overpriced tickets for 2 of the 3 Chicago shows. Currently in a dispute over the 3rd. No matter what happens, an EPIC 3 DAYS in CHICAGO are about to go down!

    Anybody else have any luck today? I was able to get a single to the July 5th show at 12:35, but it took a 1/2 hour of nervous trying.

    I had a pair of 315 for July 5th, but I know my dad would be disappointed with those so I released them. Oh well!

    I know it's a long shot, but anybody have Magnaball close
    Camping tickets to trade for 2 Sunday floors?

    This is depressing to me! Was so close to buying these, and would've GLADLY done this trade. I'll keep my ears and eyes peeled for you, and if you decide to sell (long-shot, I know), I'd LOVE to take these off your hands. It's my dad's birthday on the 7th, so this would be a real treat for him (we go to Phish shows together but he wishes he had seen the Dead in his youth).

    scored what i needed today for july 5th. so very happy to be in the doors in a non-obstructed full view of the stage at face value. this tour might even qualify for a t-shirt even though i already have a full suitcase full of dead dyes.
    already got floors for july 4th
    google grateful dead 1995 chicago to see what that stage looked like for that event. mind blowing beautiful...sometimes up close isn't that good!

    If my cousin doesn't take these tickets I'll let you know. He said go for the trade first since he knows I need Magnaball tix
  • weekapaug19weekapaug19 Posts: 2,293
    Tix gone.....check Cash or trade, a few have popped up

    Was able to score a ticket for the July 4th show for a friend. My friend came up empty for the 5th. He may have to stub hub for the other 2 shows.

    My wife and I tried on 2 different computers in 2 different locations as well as simultaneously using the TM app on our phones. We were on the site 10 minutes BEFORE they went on sale. Got nothing AGAIN. Have now lost out on the mail order lottery for all 3 shows, the VIP packages for all 3 shows, the first ticketmaster sale for all 3 shows, and now the 2nd Ticketmaster sale. Unfuckingbelievable.

    Still not sure what tickets I have & what I need. My friend is still waiting on a promoter to get back to him. I was told I have an extra ticket for the 3rd but I may need to trade it for a show I don't have a ticket for. Should know more info soon, "may" be able to help. If not good luck with finding another ticket & if you see my hat there, say hello.
    So, What you Giving ?........ (Thanks Speedy, Alesek, & Arq+friends)
    What You Giving

    I suggest you step out on your Porch.

    Just informed I have tickets to the 3rd & 5th. Sorry, no extra on the 3rd. There are 3 of us sharing 2 tickets for each show.

    Searching for a ticket on the 4th, if anyone knows of a spare, please get in touch. Thanks

    Here's last nights soundcheck for anyone interested. Kinda crappy quality, but that's to be expected recorded from an iPhone in the parking lot. Some pretty solid jams here...
