    Same here. Based on everything I'm seeing we should be good.
    Some folks got N2 GA with 2nd choice (some didn't), and Some got N1 Reserved with 3rd Choice (and some didn't). 
    Just recieved confirmation that I won both.  Cheers mate

    Shit!!!! Saltzy going on tour this year

    I'm 41,single, and make more money than I ever thought I would.  Seeing this band play live is basically the only thing on this planet that gets me going anymore.  I've decided I'm just gonna follow them around the planet until they drop dead, or I do.

    Still kicking around the idea of South America too. 

    Because fuck it.  Life is short.

    You'll hear lots of opinions about this (many threads dedicated to the subject) but in my experience you can be on the rail if you line up at dawn or before.  If you don't mind being 20-30 deep you can sleep in, enjoy the city, and line up with a full phone battery a couple hours before gates open.  Both are incredible, but it's hard to beat making new friends in the GA line.

    For  Wrigley 2013 I had reserved with a 4XXXXX number and we were in the lower section of the upper deck.  Not the best seats, but certainly not the worst.

    Enjoy!

    Not a surprise but thrilling nonetheless!!!! I put my choice in like, the 3rd or 4th day. I wasn't planning on putting in for any 10c tickets and was just going to wing it but my best friend is coming from Taiwan so I had to try. Now I have 7 months to plan and see if I can swing more shows :smiley:

    I cannot believe I seriously lost every single one... I don't even know what to do now... I didn't enter for the ticketmaster verified presale (Because I figured there was no way I could lose all 3), and probably wont be able to get anything now. Correct?

    Life is short is right, and that's why i'm going to Europe this Summer. 

    I live in the NYC area.  Flying up to Toronto on 7/3 to see the Mets play the Jays 2 nights, then straight to Madrid to meet up with friends, then drive to Pamplona for the Running of the Bulls, then back to Madrid for PJ, then fly to Lisbon for PJ again, then Missoula solo the next month, fly to Chicago and meet up with friends for both shows there, then drive up to Boston for the 2 shows in Sept, then later that month, Oktoberfest in Munich.

    It's going to be an orgasmic 3 months.

    Because fuck it.  Life is short.

    I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer early last fall- and thats why I'm traveling the countryside with my wife this year. 

    The cancer? Fuck it, I'm actually winning that war, now, but man did it remind me we only got so many days.
