I mentioned this in another thread but I may as well post a separate thread. If you are thinking about going but are worried about getting tickets, or payong too much, DONT WORRY. It is very likely that you will get your choice of tickets for less than face. There were many many many singles many pairs some fours and few 3s out there and too many open seats during the show. Thust me others will verify this. One guy about a block away in front of a pizza shop on Bdwy had at least 20 tickets. It was as thick as a deck of cards. I was counteroffer loge tickets for $20 just before the show, my offer was $5.
My head is still fuzzy I didnt get in until 345am so pardon the incoherence and such. Good luck!!!

    if you cant get in then go one block down to amsterdam ave and get a few sacks of the finest purple in the city.

    Different venue-location, non TM show and on a thurs night. I could be wrong.

    I dont mean to say that there were many scalpers but there were alot of tickets available from the few that were around. I started my walk from Coogans at about 8:10 and along my way seen at least four scalpers. I stopped for a slice and one scalper whipped out a stack of tickets that Ive never seen before (they may have been fakes or some may have been fakes) but it literally was as thick as a deck of cards. Many go-ers were right out front trying to unload there extras for as little at $20. Im always interested in seeing what is out there and I always try to upgrade with cash if I can.

    There were a shameful amount of empty seats in the place.

    I bet that if Ed had a Phila show you wouldnt be able to sniff a ticket.
