    Couldn't pull it off either. Was going to make the trip from Oklahoma since southwest has a flight special running in that time frame, but of course no luck with tickets

    So if gates open at 12, what time do you need to line up to get up front? I've never been to Central Park- is there like a gate that you wait behind?

    There are 2 different entrances, West and East. It'll give you a specific location to where it will be, and the line will be obvious. It's gonna be a whole different beast this year because of the line-up. Lots of kids/teens will be willing to wait forever for Ed Sheeran and Beyonce. The first year, doors opened a little later (2 or 3), got there at noon, and we were right behind VIP 3. The year after that, we didn't care about being as close, so we got there around 2/2:30. Ended up, funny enough, the exact same spot as the previous year.

    But again, this year it's gonna be different, I think. You'll probably have to get there the night before or early in the AM to be close.

    I f*cking suck at getting any Pearl Jam tickets these days that are remotely sought after. No London, no Wrigley, only 12th pick for Summer 2014 tour, yada yada....

    Just GA. As a VIP, you already have a set section.

    Anyone else just going to try for plain ol' free GA tickets? Can't justify the $$ now, especially as I might have to fly in.

    I know it's a werid lineup but this works out well for my girlfriend. She gets Beyonce and I get PJ. Although, to be fair, Beyonce probably puts on a decent show. I've heard Coldplay is decent live as well. No interest in Ed Sheerhan though.

    They are an unregulated monopoly with a roomful of lawyers. They can do what they want. The fine print reads "Prices subject to change at any time".

    Seeking 1 (one) VIP2 ticket. Will pay face value, grab you a drink, and you can have my 10C spare at a show next year (131,XXX)

    PM me if you can help.

    Thanks.

    Hi everyone. Ticketmaster won't take the code even for the unlocked sections anyone else have this problem?
    And VIP1 pricing is ridiculous. I've been to big concerts at Central Park (Elton John, Simon & Garfunkel back in the day, and you have an area and you protect it and the good thing about vip 2 & 3 is a bathroom, otherwise you're looking for a tree with big leaves and full foliage. And that's if the moving crowd doesn't tow you under. Bathroom availability is worth couple hundred not thousands.
    Anyway any problem with codes?? I mean = they're right there (pointing out window).

    Thank you whoever said they raised the price. I refreshed, went for VIP3, then at 175 they were found. THANKS!

    Keep trying. Pulled 2 VIP 2 tix at 10:19 through the general pool, not 10c. Also through Citi Presale.

    You're right/I agree with this. It's a weird but also wonderful line up, as a fan of 3/4 bands. Beyonce is gonna impress a lot of people--saw him live a few years ago and it was spectacular. Same with Coldplay, they impressed the hell out of me on their Mylo Xyloto tour. And of course PJ is gonna bring down the house! I was joking with a friend I'd be bringing ear plugs and reading material for Ed Sheeran's set :lol:

    I hope there is a mass exodus when PJ comes on - so I can move up.....:)
