    Mobile tickets means mobile tickets.  It's the same for everyone.

    The other option is verified fan or the venue website.

    Will you have to somehow be "online" for it to work?

    If Im going from Sweden I'm having my phone on "flightmode" unless I'm on the Hotel/McD Wi-fi...
    You should also be able to screenshot your ticket so that it’s in your photos, and be able to enter without being online.

    A friend is a baseball season ticket holder and sends me tickets that way when we meet up at games.
    That occured to me too, and would make it ridiculously easy for someome to give/sell their tickets to someone else.

    Here's the response I received.  

    No problem. If you end up getting tickets through the pre-sale just shoot us an email explaining you don't have a smart phone and we'll get you sorted.
    They'll probably send you an email to print out.

    I hope I'm wrong, but I really doubt they'll go back on what they said about mobile tickets.

    This is kind of funny. I thought that immediately when reading the info today. Because I remember the cries of "what if I don't have a DVD player" when they stopped releasing VHS movies in 2003, etc... 
    And because I didn't have a smart phone till 2013 and I thought I was one of the last people. Didn't even have a cell phone until 2006 which I also thought I was one of the last people then... so to hear there are people who still don't have smart phones, it's bizarre and kind of cool. Even my most anti-tech, anti-phone friend got a smart phone about 3 years ago. The dude still has a rotary phone at his house on his landline.

    I am right there with you in the "I thought I was one of the last people to get"....  a cell phone, a DVD player, a blue-ray player (bought my first one last year... at a pawn shop), a computer (used my wordprocessor until the bitter end), and I too have have a smart phone... and for a few years now ;) 

    Btw I still have a landline, I have a tangible planner/calendar in my purse and my email is aol :smiley:  Old school all the way.

    Yeah, I'm still hanging on to my flip phone. I hope it all works out if I get tickets.

  • I was hoping they would go to phone-free shows using yondr pouches like Jack White will be doing for his shows.  The whole crowd buried in their smart phones is not my idea of a live concert experience.

    Agreed, love this thread.  I have a smartphone, so no worries here, but I'm sometimes envious of folks who haven't caved yet.  
    *On a related note, I recently bought a box of old PJ VHS tapes (including SVT on VHS!).  Now I need to go buy a cheap VHS player to play them!  :lol:

    Next they will force everyone to sit and kick you out if you put your hands in the air or dare to enjoy your time the way you see fit at a show you are paying for. I don’t like people that have phones out the whole time, but damn taking a photo or two for myself would be nice. Im glad most shows arent phone free

  • I've had the same flip phone since January of 2010.  Same original battery that I charge every 4 or so days.  My cell phone plan is $32 a month with unlimited talk and text. It can take pictures, though I'm not into the selfies anyway which would be hard with a flip phone. I can navigate by writing down directions, using a paper map, and don't mind asking for directions if I have to.
