@NSL - where were Arizona tickets located? Trying to gauge the quality of seats popping for that show. Thanks
The AZ ones have been mostly 200 level...but every once in a while a 100 level or even a floor reserved pops up. Some of the 200-level have lingered for a few minutes... so you may have a chance at those. I have 4 up there that I'll sell when I can upgrade myself. I've been watching pretty much non-stop for 2 days (using Chrome auto-refresh while on a large monitor w/ that window open on the side). I've had tickets in the cart several times, but unable to seal the deal.
Thanks for the info. I thought there would be more available given the Easter weekend. I'll keep tracking as well. Best of luck!
I scored a ridiculously good upgrade for Oakland N1. 114 Row A5 (2nd row off the floor) popped up this morning when I randomly refreshed a couple times and I was lucky enough to get them. I listed my 101 Row 22 pair and they sold almost instantly. It's an easy process, but there's a lot of luck involved for sure.
Sometimes I just click on the Ottawa show to see the screen that says Heads Up - Important Info, so I know I'm not losing my mind clicking on B'more.
My pressure release has been opening up my TM app and just looking at my MSG tickets just to get a visual image reminding me how lucky I am to be seeing even just one of these US shows.
ugh you got MSG.... now you just rubbed your balls on my face...well played well played...lemme know if you need a +1😁

I saw your tickets right on a refresh after a refresh, I think I might have had a good chance getting them, but opted to hold out. I think the side stage upper deck isn't bad.. so I figure it was mostly a wash in seat position. Your tickets because of how fast I had refreshed were the first pair I thought I could actually get.
Best ones I've seen so far were 2nd row in the seats on the floor (middle section) and row 2 up in section 128. I couldn't check out in time for those ones. Hard to find time to fresh, but hopefully something good pops up

I’m surprised your seats aren’t closer. What section were you last time they played MSG?

200's!!! dude dont embarrass yourself sitting there. sell them to me!
I propose that 10c have a lottery for F2F next time. Just have everyone that wants to sell back tix submit by a certain date. Then 2 weeks before show have the lottery for members who didn’t get tickets in first lottery. Then it can go into this regular type of F2F for people who missed the deadline or can’t make the show last minute.
Curious after 2 days, what did people go in looking for and how has it been? Me:
STL: had nothing and scored a primo pair Wed morning
OAK2: looking to upgrade
LA1: looking to upgrade
LA1: looking to upgrade
QC: lower bowl pair behind the stage --> lower bowl pair right next to stage Ottawa: Upper Deck pair behind the stage --> lower bowl pair 3/4 sections over Baltimore: I'll let you guess how that's gone thus far...

This sounds really hard logistically since people might want to make hotel and transportation reservations. Also I don’t think 10C wants to do more work on another lottery for the same show.

Pretty good. Obviously BAL is a long shot/high demand, but 2 shows moving from behind the stage to lower bowl.

Agreed! Can't complain. Would love to add Baltimore to compete the group but I've done okay thus far with the other 2!
F yeah! Just scored a GA ticket for Quebec through F2B
Good work.

It appears the most unhappiest of fans are those who have the means and willingness to pay hundreds for a ticket on stubhub, but lost this edge with this new system. I suspect this number is the minority.
Yeah, it's hard to sympathize with someone whose complaint is that they can't buy their way in. The band has set up a system where luck or persistence and not cash determines who gets their hands on limited supply. So it goes.
It would be great if people had the option to sell below face, but I can understand potential barriers to implementing that. Could be technology, could be not wanting to cannibalize other inventory, etc. Given that, the lesson is don't buy more than what you need. Things come up and I get that but people need to realize there's risk in upgrading your seats or pooling with friends and hoping you can offload the extras later. Incentivizing people not to hoard isn't the worst thing.
It’s not nearly as much about me being willing to buy my way in as you think. It’s about a designed system that requires people to sit and refresh their phones thousands of times. And then your odds still aren’t good.
So yeah, I’ve got things to do and would gladly cough up $150 or more over face to get back to my life and job. It’s worth it to me to have certainty of a ticket with my kids 6 weeks before the show. It is awesome that they can keep prices down. I really do believe that. But when you’ve got thousands of people wasting hours per day on a less than 1% chance of getting these rare tickets dropped at random, that’s when I see this system as flawed.
I get that my viewpoint puts me in the minority. I’m thrilled I got two for face value. I’d just love the option to pay more to get four together. That’s all.

As frustrating as this has been, thanks to everyone on here for keeping me sane! I'm still holding out hope for hometown B-more tickets, but happy to visit Ottawa for the first time. I love the idea of F5 t-shirts, perhaps I'll sell some to pay for our flight to Canada!

I hear you, but big picture...this exactly what the band is trying to avoid, that people with more money are the ones that get in. Your ability and willingness to pay more would shut out a fan who can't afford to pay more, plus that extra $150 doesnt go to the band/promoter/TM, it goes to a scalper/StubHub. I'm in a similar boat as you, but what we know now is that a huge majority of tickets is in the hands of true fans (those who won the lottery or have F5'd the resale to death) at face value.

Well at least some. Not a perfect system but working out for me so far.
I'd rather spend the time and effort looking, as opposed to paying more than face. Scoring the ticket is such a rush.
