    got 2 VIP2 tickets @250.... got them around 10:45 which was a surprise. I would keep trying, looks to me like they are releasing tickets on the platinum option but the prices seem to have sky rocketed !

    That is what is said for me too on those prices, but once the payment screen comes up it is instantly higher...

    that high quality global initiative lanyard the VIP's will get is a true collectable well worth the extra $75 a ticket ;)

    It's funny how Pearl Jam seems to get no respect sometimes. After all, they ARE The headliners for this festival, and I've read multiple articles that have listed them last and of course listed Beyoncé as the headlining act. I know... of course she's more popular, but give credit where credits due ! not a big deal, just had to get it off my chest. Pearl Jam is headlining, thank you Internet article writers !!!

    Kanye?
    That went over my head !
    Just joshing ya! It sounded like something Kanye would of said in reverse. He loves defending Beyonce.

    But aside from that and for realz.. there is a really good chance that Beyonce comes on last. Everyone is assuming PJ is last. Could go either way. She's a big deal to a lot of people with lots of grammys etc.

    Beyonce's set is my bathroom break

    that. LOL. rather see coldplay and check out ed sheeran. never heard any of his stuff and i hear he's great.
    Don't have much interest in the other acts ,but I think I will be able to tolerate them(although Chris Martin was pretty fun at the 12.12.12 concert) and Ed Sheeran is a ginger version of John Mayer(which I like).

    Considering you get a t-shirt(i think) and a poster,which would cost $50,which makes it $125.00 to see PJ-Not a bad deal at all

    Saw Coldplay at the Beacon a year ago... wasn't a big fan, but it was a killer show. Had to take kids to T-Swift, and Sheeran was pretty good for a mellow acoustic set to open. Will be a good day.

    i'm so absolutely gutted I wasn't able to get VIP tickets. I went through something really difficult and this was going to be one of my ways to get through it--to get to see Pearl Jam and hopefully from somewhere relatively close. Now my only hope is to get the General Admission tickets and watch on the screens. I'm so sad. :-(

    I just checked stub hub to see what the market looks like, and there is a notice that says
    "stubhub will not be selling tickets to this event"
    Very cool!

    Don't worry, there will be tickets floating around this board as the show gets closer

    They are not doing this due the goodness of their hearts . Until last year when they were ordered to take them off their site(E-bay as well) they sold them and of course got a cut of the profit .

    I don't know why the enemy(Ticketmaster) is allowed to offer "prime" tickets from scalpers

    It looks like the released more blocks every 15 mins, at a higher price. I ended up getting a pair when they first launched using my 10C code. Then my buddy got them at 10:15, at $175 each. Then I saw at 10:31 it go up to $250.

    If you still don't have a ticket around the beginning of September, message me. I pulled a single VIP 3. But would much rather end up in the rabble with one of the freebies.

    What the hell? They released more at a higher price? I gave up after 25 minutes because I had to leave. I'm just hoping for free tickets now, got my first entry in.

    does VIP 2 or 3 at least have the option to buy alcohol? and about how many people per VIP section?
