Any chance this is some massive government sponsored psych experiment to see how long people will sit in front of a screen staring at a spinning blue circle?...............just sayin
"Ya know time is long, and life is short, begin to live while you still can"
This spinning blue ring is maddening. Let me in or cut me loose already. WTF
I know, this is maddening. Was trying for Baltimore tickets with 2000+ in front of me and have been "sitting tight" with a spinning blue circle because tickets are about to become available. F%@K
'03 - Buffalo '16 - Toronto (Night 1), Boston (Night 2) '18 - Chicago (Night 1 & 2) '22 - Toronto
If bots/scalpers took all the Baltimore tickets, I at least can't seem to find where they went. There are those two listings on eBay that were there yesterday, but otherwise where'd they all go?
Again. This a computer program... Do you think there's not really a special queue for those big name corporations and scalping? Filters are part of computer programming... Just saying
No. I just think there is a special queue for me. In the back.
Lmao. I'm right there with you !!! And the sale ....AGAIN...next week?!?!?!
System is broke. Some folks got 2 lottery tix and 4 verified fan tix where as other club members where shut out of the show completelty.
Nobody seems to understand how f'ed up this is. those same people probably got greedy and got more tix today during the general on sale, while others got zero! Unreal!
I really do feel for people who didn't get tickets, but this line of thinking is so strange to me. Do we have an algorithm for who deserves how many tickets?
it's fairly obvious they made a mistake booking one night at MSG. Getting tickets to those shows was hard enough in 2016 and there were two. I expect the cheapest ticket to be $300+ on stubhub.
Zero mistake booking one night at MSG - they knew exactly what they were doing with the time constraints, venue availability etc. And shockingly there are other areas of the country that want to see the band play.
I never said there aren't other areas of the country that want to see PJ. But you must realize that PJ playing in NYC, a city of 8m+ ppl (not even going to count the full tri-state area), is a lot different than them playing in a place like Detroit. This is why, imo, it warrants two nights. And it's not like this is unprecedented... They have played MSG/Barclays two nights on several occasions.
I get the desire for more shows, but NA leg 1, Europe, NA leg 2--they aren't going to do more, so it sorta sounds like some people (not necessarily you) are saying NY should get 2 shows and one of these others cities is SOL (like OKC perhaps).
I got on msg que the second it opened around 9.45
25000+ ahead of me
thats 50000 tickets, before me, but only those that were able to get in line
How many shows should they be playing outside nyc if that’s the demand here?
Queue placement is random
They tell fans first come first served and wait in line 10 minutes early

Right - and as mentioned a condensed first leg of the tour, with limited arena availability didn't allow it for the first leg. If people want to go, they'll always figure out a way to get in the door... always.
Msg on stub hub is about triple more than 2016
so those that have 750$ for behind stage seats, enjoy DotC
But it's really not - I bought nosebleeds at MSG for $300 (which I snagged ASAP when I saw it as it really was the cheapest I had seen). I just looked, on Stubhub, and the same section is going for $470. Just wait and tickets will certainly go down in price on resale sites.
Behind the stage seating is currently going for anywhere from $360+ - again.. .tickets will go down in price.

Truly not attempting to be a prick - but that is absolutely not f'ed up.. it's capitalism & has nothing to do with greed. That or folks who truly are attempting to get multiple tickets to bring family/friends.

Greedy? They wanted all those seats all to themselves? Are they going to change seats every few songs?

I guess the main thing that's bothering me and many others isn't the general on sale, it's the presales, both had TM involved. Basically, if you lucked out, you got 6 tix, 2 10c tix and 4 TM verified fan tix before today's general public on-sale, just doesn't seem right.

i'm guessing that the Baltimore message of the tickets sale countdown to Jan 31st is their way of saying currently sold out? wtf, i had that "tickets will be available, sit tight message" for 20 mins!! So angry with the way tickets and presale codes were handled for this. bullshit.

I think you know what the algorithm is.
(Time in 10C) x -(ability to read) + (number of threads created to complain) ?
Well I wasted like 25 minutes of my life. I hit refresh, it sent me to a validation thing, then after that a screen that says sale will begin Friday Jan 31 10am. This is for Baltimore by the way.
Is it too much to ask to just have a screen come up that’s says no more tickets instead of wasting even more of our time?
