    I think realistically, if you didn't have seats by like 10:15 for MSG you were toast.

    looks like lots still available for Ott - and doesn't look like selling behind the stage (they didn't in 2016 either). 


    Ottawa still had tickets in 114 and 108 until just a few minutes ago!

    Well, here’s to hoping my Best Available 10C tickets for Hamilton are good.  Couldn’t get anything good in the presale today.  Wanted to have choices when the 10C are revealed.  Either can be transferred during the fan-to-fan sale.

    the map is awful.  It has made tickets.com seem like the greatest experience ever.  Can't tell you how many times I got the "another fan beat you to those tickets" message.

    So...i accidentally put in code for TOR into OTT....and it let me in. odd. 
    F....just did it again, used OTT code to QC and it worked. so much for unique codes for each show.

    I'm really curious to see exactly how many tickets are left for general sale at MSG...

    We'll it's a wrap on MSG.  Here's the current map.  I guess I'll try again during the regular onside or wait for potential second 2020 East Coast Leg.  Congrats to those who got in.
    Don't rule out a 2nd MSG date getting added on Tuesday, March 31st. It's feasible with 2 days between 3/30 MSG and 4/2 Nashville.
    I believe there is an NIT tournament game scheduled for Tuesday night. If there is another NYC show, it would be someplace else. Making it all the more doubtful unless some sort of club show like they did during Avocado.

    cant say you could not get a ticket though-I could have bought a MSG single if I wanted behind the stage three sections up

    Technically, you are right.
    Personally, I am not spending money to travel into the city and all of that, plus tickets, to sit where I cannot see the band.  (I don't count those spots to be able to see the band.)
    Hope people were able to get those who are cool with it and just want to participate and hear the music.  Glad they are for sale, think they should charge folks less for that dreck.
    I agree behind stage is not for me.  I do think that between the 10C and this sale, more fans than ever got tickets to MSG at a reasonable price. Well done PJ.  I knew the second this show was announced that it would cost me $500 for a decent ticket.  Might even be more.

    Since they'll get you into the show, I'd argue they're 100% better than what you got in the presale today!

    My friend was able to get us Baltimore tickets in Sec 103, Row H, Seats 1 & 2 through the Verified presale this morning, so there must have been a few decent tickets left.    He generally has good luck with these random drawing type things, so that probably helped.    I doubt my 10C tickets would have been any better given where we were in 2013.

    I've been in the ticket selection screen for Baltimore for 20 minutes now hoping that some more are released.  Is it time to give up?  I had a pair in section 204 row A but when I tried to check out it said that another fan took them.  So close.
    if youre still there id keep trying and take anything you can get
    When I finally got in there was mostly last few rows of the 300 sections.  Every once in while something better would pop up but I'd always miss it.  I don't have to sit in the best seats in the house but its hard for me to travel 6 hours to sit in the very back.  I'll keep trying as we get closer to the show date.  If this doesn't work out I'll wait until the fall.

    Just tested trying to enter Waiting room from Computer and Mobile. Mobile said "Can't enter Queue because you're already in line"... so you CAN'T try to get in the queue from multiple devices. 

    Just trying to help trouble shoot for folks :) 
    Yeah this happened to me too. I tried on my computer For Toronto.  I was in the queue and finally got access to tickets but they were not to my liking so I did not purchase as I Had already won tickets in 10 club lottery and was only looking for friends.  I signed out of my TM account and cleared out all my browsing history and cookies.  I then later tried it on my iPhone TM app just to see and it gave me that same message as well.  I’m so happy I got tickets through 10 club.  The system is very flawed and questionable IMO and I understand why people get so frustrated as I’ve been those people before.  Like I said thankfully I scored through 10 club for the shows I wanted and this time.  I’ve never trusted anything with Ticketmaster.
