    Just got tickets vip3, flying in from Texas. After reading this, is this a reality that no alcohol will be served??? 6 hours of talking and sub par music waiting on pj to play - dead sober? I was so excited all day, now I feel as if I have been ripped off!

    I dont think this will be the case, but I didn't go last year so I guess we will see.

    Have fun everyone who scored tickets!! I had two VIP2s on my phone, clicked to buy them and at that exact moment my wife called my phone. Verizon doesn't let you do voice and data at the same time so I lost the tickets and couldn't get them after that... I am now slowly progressing through the 5 stages of PJ ticket buying grief. Currently in "Bargaining" phase so if anyone can't make it please let me know and I'll happily pay face + for two tix. Can't justify paying $500 per on stubhub...

    MSNBC Will Broadcast 'Free' Concert to Help 'End Extreme Poverty'

    http://newsbusters.org/blogs/randy-hall/2015/07/11/msnbc-will-broadcast-free-concert-help-end-extreme-poverty-september

    "All four will perform during the "free" Global Citizen Festival set to be held on Saturday, Sept. 26, in New York City's Central Park -- a six-hour event that will be aired live on MSNBC and its website for the second consecutive year. The concert is expected to draw 60,000 people to the site."

    Scored 2 in VIP2 for $175 w/ my 10c code right out the gate. I'm feeling pretty fortunate since my work computer had been wonky lately - that & the fact that others had issues w/ their codes etc has me feeling pretty lucky.

    Congrats to those that scored - good luck to those who didn't & are going after the freebies!

    Interestingly it looks like the scalpers are able to sell these tickets, which kind of stinks.

    Stubhub originally said on their site they weren't selling tickets to the event. GC website said they had an agreement with the resellers to prevent resale. If I recall they made it seem as that was the case for ALL GCF tix. I think they now edited the FAQ and added the word "free" when discussing ticket re selling:

    If you try to sell the free tickets, we will cancel them - we have standing arrangements with secondary market providers including StubHub, eBay and Craigslist.com.

    I wonder what changed? Is it some kind of legal precedent in New York State that says if any event is sold on ticketmaster, it can indeed be resold in the secondary market? I'm just guessing, but stubhub originally said they won't resell GCF tix and now are more than happy to do it for 500$ and up a pop.

    I have 2 vip3 tickets that I need to sell because I won't be able to get off work. I paid $175 each and I'm just looking to get my money back, and would like them to go to a Pearl Jam fan

    Has both tickets been called for? Know a friend that's looking for just 1 VIP3 ticket.
    Thanks!
