edit: perhaps the first three shows are non-transferable but the rest will be.
They are holding back 10% of the tickets for seats from all areas at the venue
These tickets will be released periodically at a premium over face but less than what scalpers try to get. All monies over face plus fees go to charity.
Seems like a reasonable attempt to improve the market, protect fans and provide reasonable availability for last chance tickets. Unless stub hub is willing to take the restraint of trade approach, they might become a dinosaur to premium rock shows.

Edit, their charity prices are a little steep. But not as steep as others

Plenty of SH MSG for well under $300 IIRC
Rage is definitely not PJ. Noone is when it comes to tickets. Not even Bruce. Not even The Stones.
So you’re saying that eventually I will be able to buy/sell for this show on Stubhub? Because all the other shows are up on Stubhub. I wonder why this one is special?
I have no interest in going to 2 shows (one of which on a Tuesday night from horrible seats), nor in holding onto them for 6 months, so I just had to eat like $30 to dump them on Stubhub.
The comical notion that it was a spur of the moment 'due to overwhelming demand' is such bullshit. As if they didn't have them already scheduled. Sure.
Just announce what the damn shows are all at once so that people don't get stuck with tickets for a show they don't want or need.
