    Whoop! Whoop!  We got the Section #213 Baltimore tix!  Just so you know, we have been pounding hard on the f5 key for hours at a time, coming close many times, so we know how lucky we are to actually get them!  And now I'll share the love with all our PJ TC friends:  here's a tip that I think helped us be first....we put a small piece of scotch tape on the computer screen in the location of the "got It" button that you have to hit first to get to the ticket screen.  So our cursor was always in the correct position for getting past that first screen immediately.  Maybe a dumb idea but I think it helped us!!  Good luck to you all!!

    People are putting fucking scotch tape where they need to aim the mouse when tickets are posted the 1:2,500 clicks they appear.

    We have officially reached ludicrous speed here folks.

    This is the craziest shit I have ever, ever seen.

    People are seriously dropping $4,000?!?!

    If John and George were reincarnated and the Beatles played MSG I would still not pay 4 fucking thousand dollars to see that.

    What the fuck is happening?


    Their farewell tour will be only three shows at msg. The floor and 100s will all be charity tickets. $20000 a pop. Great tax deduction. For them.

    Sorry if this was already suggested.  But it would save everyone a lot of time, effort, and anxiety if TM would just do a weekly lottery via Verified Fan for these tix.  They could give priority to everyone wait listed the first time around and then throw everyone in it each week up until show time.
    It feels like the argument for a random entry into the pit at concerts.  We're asking people to put in more effort to save us from ourselves... lol.   
    Yeah, there is no perfect solution.   But the odds of getting selected and then getting tix through VF are probably not much different than the odds of getting tix hitting F5 all day.  People just like to feel that they are in control of their destiny.
    The odds through a VF option would be much less. How many people out there right now are really plugging away at F5? A few hundred maybe? A Verified Fan option with a specific onsale time would see a lot more people trying for the same few number of tickets. 
    You are probably right, especially with limited tour dates.   As has been said over and over again the demand for tix is much greater than the available number of tickets.   Hopefully the fall tour will be a little easier to land tickets.
    Is a fall tour confirmed it just wishful thinking
  • Congrats!! I put a sharpie dot on my phone screen but gave up early this morning. I’ve had a hotel booked for 3 months. Might have to let that go to someone who needs it.

    I told my son I’d give him $50 if he F5s and gets tickets. He quit after 2 hours. Fucker still wants the $50.
