if i was super rich , there still wouldnt be anything in this world worth $2200.00 for 3 hours of my time. Prob some old dudes bought those trying to impress a young lady...... I see hair plugs, $500plus skinny jeans and some all wrong half buttoned silk shirt with a hairy ass chest occupying those seats

there is a CHUMP for everything

Advice for those in the east... if you are still in the back, uppers or rear. I would F2F your tickets now if you plan to upgrade.. I realize that the sample size is CA but most likely when the shows get closer there will be so many ticket dumps and better F2F dropping all the time, you may get stuck holding your old tickets. I upgraded my SDs, thinking its been close to 100% sold for a long time and had only about 40 premiums just before the F2F. I put mine up a week ago, Sec C row 20, not bad seats and In the Best seats available list never dropped below 10th. TM has dropped and sold 100s of previous Premiums and new face values in better locations that mine are still not sold. I might have to eat them of F2F my upgraded seats and sit in the Cs .. Just an observation. 

This. As a matter of fact, I think we see many people needing to "downgrade" on the day before/of the CA shows because they can't sell their old ticket. So you either sit in the better seats and eat the others, or you sell the seats you can, and sit in the crappier ones.

I wish they'd give us the option of adjusting the prices so that we can atleast try to get something back.  

I predict there are a lot of free or discounted tickets on the board. "Meet me at the gate and buy me a beer" kinda things.

I've accepted that I'll be eating a few but I think it's worth it since the better seats are still below market value. Next time I'm not going to bother with the lottery though except for super high demand shows like MSG

For example, I have a single GA for PHX. I also have a decent side seat. If the side seat doesn't sell, I am essentially paying $250 for the GA seat. I probably would have done that anyway if there was stubhub resale. Or the market for GA is pretty liquid so I could give up and sell that and sit in my side seat for $125. First world problems...

Given this upgrade/extra scenario, some of these shows are even more undersold than we thought.

I would say I have a 75% chance to sell mine, so long as there are no more big drops, F2F for better seats have slowed way down and mien are still in the top of the best available- I mean really I need 10-20 people to pop for new tickets. that should be easier right.. TM sold 50 plus yesterday closer to the stage - all new drops, not discounted premiums.. I hope SD does not see more of those and ill be fine, and yes prepared to eat the C row 20s if need be..

some people arent willing to go indoors with 15k-20k people, they are prob smarter than I am....... have a few friends who got covid from that Phish show at MSG last week, looks like a super spreader.

Yes, but all those $500+ Premium tix are going to turn into face value tickets a day or so before the show. I wouldn't want to be holding onto ANY F2F tickets within a few days of the CA shows.

I probably shouldn't but a part of me feels bad for the person who dropped $2200 on floor seats to STL and is now trying to sell them on F2F. Those things are going to be there all summer.

FOMO can be overwhelming.

FOMO and high-limit credit cards.

Yeah, I'm not sure I'd be super comfortable with shows in May. I might have still gone, masked, but it would be a tough decision. I'm hoping that by September, things are better than right now (we are starting to do more, but aren't back to "normal" comfort levels yet).

JojoRice

Doesn't look like any of the shows on the May leg are requiring any kind of vax card or a negative test that I've seen either. I'm flying out to the LA shows.  I'll probably bring my vax card just in case.

I just cant imagine someone so dumb to drop that kinda dough, there are always ways to get in. MSG is tough, but ive seen things unfold that at least gets you in at the last minute @ face 

even the apollo show.....pay that $$ so you can BRAG you were there? After a few weeks its just another show

I think most of these premium tix that magically dissapear are TM Doing it to sucker in another fool

I remember standing in line for a PJ show and overheard someone bragging about carrying $16,000 balance following the band.

Don't forget the silk shirt would have either flames on it, or a woman in a cocktail glass.

There is a great pair for LA2 in Section 128 for face value on TM right now.
