Official EV Earthling Tour Lottery & Verified Fan Freak Out Thread

Good luck to our west coast friends.

Current screen for both Beacon shows, sometimes a refresh will show a Platinum ticket or two.


When a Platinum ticket is available it says “Public Onsale Starts TBA”, what does that mean? Are there still more tickets?

Also the notification does not say “sold out”, just “currently not available”. Sliver of hope for more tickets in general onsale?

Edit: these are the onsale times. They “end” the day of the show. Thanks TM?

I think that small numbers of tickets will randomly drop from time to time between now and the show. You have to get insanely lucky to get them though.

I would not get my hopes up for anything TM related. Did anyone get decent seats at $250/ea through the verified TM sale? Not platinum.  Just curious.

I have to say, I am really amazed at how in demand these shows are.

I knew it would be sold out, but I didn't think this was gonna be a $400 and up ticket type deal.

I'm not quite so sure it's the demand, as much as it is the lack of supply.  Very small tour, very small venues.  Not many tickets to go around.

TM service fee for Platinum is more than 10c ticket - "this is not for you"

I got stugots for all the various lotteries. Oh well, it’s not the end of the world. Now I’m going to have to start hunting for a single for New York or New Jersey. And congrats to everyone who managed to get tickets!

Can someone put their tickets back onsale on TM if they don’t want them anymore? Or will the drops be seats randomly released for sale (that may have been held for family/friends)?

I'm on Stub Hub and these tickets aren't going anywhere. If I feel the need to pay the price (which I probably will) I can wait until Feb. If I'm wrong I won't be out 500 dollars. 

Yeah I’m not jumping on these now. There’s a pretty healthy amount of inventory on there, and it’s all scalpers - more tickets will come on as we get closer and regular people change their plans. I’ll be checking in several times a day between now and February.

I’ll also be interested to see what happens to the ticket prices if rescheduled PJ dates are announced prior to these shows. My guess is not much, but it’s possible that demand could go down if people decide they’d rather try to catch Pearl Jam at the Garden. 

Wait to see if a snow storm hits or there is a polar vortex.

Love the positivity and the use of stugots! Somebody help this guy out with an extra.

I recently did the TM verified presale for the 3 Avett Bros shows at the Chicago Theater.  More tickets popped up later in the day when many thought shows were sold out.

People keep saying this. The Beacon Theater is on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, on Broadway a block and a half from the subway. Nobody is driving there. Short of an apocalyptic blizzard snow isn’t going to stop anyone from going to these shows.

Woo.. that was tough! Chrome wouldn't refresh the page when it was time to enter the queue or when it was my turn to buy.  Then every ticket I wanted dissappeared before I could check out.  Ended going one row further back (2nd to last row at the top) to score a pair to Seattle 2.

Now tring to see if someone I can finangle seattle 1 tix.

Wohoo! Glad you got in! Just got my friend across the street tickets right in the same area (I think). They somehow missed the news about the show, and I got into the verified after winning the lotto... interesting part will be getting them in, but I assume if I'm with them it shouldn't be a big deal. Worst case they put my ticketmaster on their phone.. Good luck on night 1, I figured 1 night is good enough

Got tickets to Seattle night #2 though TM Verified - super stoked!

In case anyone is planning to buy just one ticket for night #1, I would be very grateful if you could snag me an extra. Please DM if so.

I'm a sucker.  Because my wife's account was verified, I was also able to into night 1 in seattle.  I couldn't buy more verified tickets, but I did buy some platinum tickets.  The most I have ever paid for tickets in my entire life.

Still.. I haven't bought concert tickets in 2 years.  Plus the tickets for night 2 being all the way at the back were cheaper than I was expecting.  Night 1 is on the main level.

I really hope Covid doesn't cause issues with crossing the land border.  Fingers crossed.

I also got one Ticketmaster Verified Fan ticket for Seattle 2 quite easily. Logged in a few minutes prior and it took just two minutes from selection to checkout so that was cool. Having just one seat probably made it easier for me though.

What if we got confirmed for Verified Fan but have yet to get a passcode?....that's kinda trash...

Glad to see StubHub's already showing 120+ Verified Fan tickets for Chicago...
