what if I don't have a smartphone. what if I break my phone the day of the show ?  what if the damn battery dies in line waiting to get in the show ?

Question is do I have to own or bring a smartphone to the concert. can I print a ticket from a e-mail account and bring that with me instead. Not everyone who was a fan In 1992 has a smartphone.  I'm old dammit.

    Someone posted the 10c would do something, but know one knows what that is.   The reason they're trying smartphones is to prevent scalping of the tickets.  You can only transfer one, and most likely have to enter the venue with your mobile phone to get it (making it super difficult to sell the tickets).

    Any think they do to make it easier (like email tickets) also makes it easier to scalp or trade. 

    I liked the old system, if only because I like to collect ticket stubs.
