Chicago Fan Club?

This is a bit of a long shot, but does anyone have a presale code they won't be using for the Chicago / Doobie Brothers summer tour? Any help is much appreciated.

Hey EM194007, thanks for your help. I already had those passwords, as they are the ARTIST presale codes. There is also a Chicago fan club code which is unique. Still appreciate your effort though... Thank you.

Not 100% sure what the difference would be. Either one of those codes brought up great seats yesterday. Could have gotten front row of the Section 1, but they were $291.50 for the pair. I opted for the third row of Section 8 for $66.50 for a pair total. I'll keep the $225 difference in my pocket.

Unfortunately, those codes didn't bring up seats up front in my market. Here in Toronto it was all VIP packages, and a few regular seats way off to the side. Toronto is a dream market for promoters because it's huge and there are a lot of people with lots of money to spend. Promoters take advantage of this and milk us for every penny they can.

For example, I'm a member of The Who fan club. Members across North America can score front row seats with their membership, but here in Toronto the best fan club seats are 15 rows back. Another example would be the last time Eric Clapton played Toronto. On his previous tour his top ticket price was $125. He came back a year or so later and his top price was $250. Every other city and venue other than Toronto was $125 for the top ticket price. So as you can see Toronto is tough market for buying tickets.
