    @BagCzech should we add a tab on the spreadsheet to keep track of how many people are contributing?

    I can do it if that's how we want to track it.

    Long time lurker, new poster... I LOVE the creativity of this group.  Count me in too!  You guys are the only ones who get it.  Everyone else thinks my F5ing is nuts.  So glad to have a like minded community now.

    Hello F5 Tribe.  I put this on the spreadsheet but I have a Baltimore pair in 109, Row C (Seats 13 and 14, which are aisle seats on the left and closer to the stage - so basically next to 107) that I bought through the first Vitalogy sale (when prices were still way high but not like the ones that just went). I paid $750 per seat (total order was like $1700 with fees).  Assuming I'm able to "downgrade", anyone interested at that price? If I miraculously get another pair, I'll post here right away but wanted to see if I would even have a buyer. Assume I would...  DM me and we can discuss.

    So I like fun! How about everyone who is F5 on the spreadsheet throw in $20 for a raffle. Cut it off an even $1700. One entry per, person.   It might even open up the doors to those who want to upgrade. 

    I figure, I've f5'ed more time than I should. What's another $20.

    Live stream the raffle!


    I am in!!! Great idea.

    Agree. Maybe we can set up a specific F5 PayPal? It would be amazing to keep this going. We can do things every so often and donate to charities and such?

    I'll get the tab added to the spreadsheet in a minute. I want no part of the PayPal or ml eye. That can be someone else's project

    If we do this, i recommend cutting it off based on the list as it stands right now. Folks have had ample time to get on the sheet and it wouldn't be fair to see an infux of entries just because of how good the seats are. i'm going to capture a copy of it now and save it.
    I am on the upgrade page. Of course, if I won, I would walk someone in with my old seats.

    My idea was and I guess I can do it if no one else wants to step up: create a specific F5 email and PayPal. We can make this into a more legitimate thing and keep it going!

    I am a bit extra at times so maybe it is too much?

    I am happy with my seats, so not looking to get in on the deal here.  Just willing to put up my seats as if I upgrade and danlee does not (assuming I upgrade).

    There is a member who wants to sell a pair of Vitalogy tickets ($1500 for the pair) to Baltimore if he can find another pair.  The idea is we all give some amount and then the pair is raffled off by lottery.  (Please correct me if I'm wrong)

    Well, I'm in the Omaze lottery, signed up for some random radio station drawing, and had my Dad sign up for the Sirius drawing so what's one more.  I'd be in.

    Any one know why these V-tix were purchased in the 1st place???
    He said he did before they got so expensive; just a fan that really wanted to go I am sure!
    Exactly - they are my V tickets and I jumped on them after I was shut out (like the rest of us) for Baltimore.  Now I'm trying to lessen the load by scoring a pair here and initially had asked the board if anyone was interested in buying them (even though they are expensive).  But, yes a huge fan.

    Well, I was going to offer to walk someone in anyway.  This way seems most fair where I won't have to choose someone (assuming I upgrade - have not even got close yet).

    If you got a second pair we could always do a second lottery winner if we had enough people willing. Same deal... thoughts anyone?

    Wait, so for $20 I'm entered into a lotto for much better seats and then would just sell my other 2 to someone here for what I paid in the F2F?

    Um, if that is the case, sign me the fuuuuuuck up.

  • That $2000 Vitalogy ticket keep popping back up.  I'm sure once I get complacent a pair of F2F will pop up and I'll miss them.

    Well not necessarily.  My seats are 215 or 217 (so back corner of 200 level).  Not sure where your seats are.

    And seriously, I never even got to the part where I could enter in my credit card, so not likely that I will ever get tickets.

    This is such an awesome idea! I am down to donate to the cause (not to win). With PayPal you can also set up money pools, perfect for this kind of thing. Also, make sure not to mention the word Raffle with any of it, they are technically against PayPal rules.

    Please add me. I’m away from my computer and don’t have the sheet readily available. Thanks

    also waiting on thoughts about my offer for setting up the email address and PayPal. I don’t want to step out of bounds and on others’ toes.

    If we use those and not the Vitalogies, the proceeds (over face) go to charity? Or just a smaller buy-in / limited group?
