    I just have to believe that there will be more and more singles the week of or even day of the show when plans change or people upgrade AND demand might be lower bc fewer people will be able to manage last minute plans. I’m 3 hours drive to Baltimore. Hubby and I are off that weekend already and he’s a trooper to agree to be on call for a concert that he’s not interested in attending. I’m not giving up yet but I need to live my life.  It seems like it shouldn’t be this hard. 
    Been saying the same thing. Probably about 2 weeks before the show tickets are going to start dropping a little more frequent

    This is my hope for upgrading our St Louis tickets. Baltimore, we're in the upper back corner, but I really am just happy to have those tickets. STL, I'd like to be a *little* closer and lower.

    I hope they tweek this process for the next tour.  Like be able to transfer to who u want and have tm process the payment for whoever
    That would be awesome, but I don't see that happening for the fall leg (if it holds). Although frustrating, I think TM and 10c will view this as a success keeping the tickets out of the hands of scalpers. I think if they make that tweak, or any tweak, it won't be until 2021 tour or later, unfortunately. 

    It's going to be interesting if they play Philly.  Wells Fargo center is a comcast tickets venue. This show may be an exception or this could point to them playing the Citizens Bank Ball Park.

    They have played Philly in the past and used Comcast tix, same as using other vendors. I doubt there would be any issues.

    I feel you. So for the last spectrum show in philly in 2009 literally two days before, I got tickets right on the side of the stage about 7 rows back. And I got them through Ticketmaster. A bunch were released the week of. Happened with the 2nd 2016 Philly show too.

    I’ve been wondering how they plan to handle Philly tickets.  That’s my favorite place to see them.   I was about 5 rows off of the stage in GA for the Ten show.  Such great memories!

    Yeah I went to all 4 nights but the last nite I scalped right outside the Spectrum....$90. I look back and that was a steal, upper side of stage

    Been hoping for a citizens bank park show for a little now. I think if it was happening this year we would have already heard by now. But hey I could be wrong. Apparently it almost happened in 2018

    Just finally checking in this morning, damn kids!! Looks like some awesomeness happened!!! Congrats!!

    SHZA got both tickets (congrats!) , so does that mean SHZA  just has a faster connection than the rest of you?  Or faster fingers?  With my verizon Fios and computer, I am able to F5 approximately 35-38 times per minute.  I think that's pretty fast.

    So if the chance to win tickets onTM is dependent on connection speed, it seems to me that the hat idea might make give everyone more of an equal chance for redistributing tickets amongst ourselves, if needed.  Also we ensure no one else gets them.  

    But putting them back on TM does make it easier in terms of possession of the tickets, entry, etc.

    So anyway, just thinking out loud....wondering what I will do if I upgrade and have a couple to redistribute.  May not happen, as I'm down to about 1hr per day F5ing.

    I have gotten past the credit card screen so many times but another fan always beats me...Maybe fifteen times! So frustrating but glad to see so many of you have gotten tix! 
    Same here....super deflating when that happens.

    I wonder if that pushes them to play Camden instead of Philly.

    But the new fanclub system is for ticketstoday/ticketmaster, so maybe they can be friends and have some kind of interface that you can unload your fan club tickets on comcast tix?
