Exactly what I thought. Sure hate for sellers / buyers if when the time comes the tickets cannot be transferred.

Any tailgate lots that let you leave your car there overnight?

Wow - never noticed that before. So you have to coordinate with a complete stranger to meet at the gate, have them scan you through and then go your separate ways?!?! That's so strange. At some point you'll have to get a screenshot of seat location for the usher. I certainly wouldn't travel a great distance with this as my plan for the show.

That's simply a "warning." The tickets will be transferred either by URL which will add them to the purchasers iOS/Android wallet or TM account login details will be provided. The cat and mouse game between scalpers and TM/bands is never ending..

Has anyone thought about where they are going to set up for merch?

The merch areas inside the venue will be a madhouse since they are right next to the entrance to the pavilion and the main gate, plus there isn't really a good place for a merch tent right outside the venue like they've done in recent years when they are playing an arena show.

If I’m not mistaken in 2010 we lined up outside the main gate for early merch and there was a stand set up a few steps away. The main gate was opened and security controlled the perimeter thus allowing people to enter, purchase, and exit.

2010 was a long time ago... I was there but don't remember that. I do remember getting a shirt and poster though!

It is surprising. Last tour stubhub had no PJ listings other than MSG and Denver where tickets are transferable by law. Same for the Cure this spring which had the same resale / transfer restrictions. I think what changed is that Vivid Seats sold a lot of Cure tickets. So stubhub figured if competitors are going to disregard the transfer policy stubhub wants to get in on those sales too

Getting closer!

Where's a good place to eat prior near by? I'm at the Wyndham Hotel on Tegler Dr.

Fords Garage has awesome food in my experience and a great atmosphere. 

I've eaten there as well and concur...I just threw out Aspen since it's literally a 30-second walk from the Wyndham.

yeah definitely nice and close...Ford's is a good wing/burger/beer joint. Aspen has more dinner options...better steak menu, etc.

Love the ice bar at Ford's....your beer is always freezing. We try to sit at the bar whenever possible because of that.

Fords Garage sounds good.. love some good wings! I'll check the menus out for both.

If you want really good wings hit up Ale Emporium...just a few miles south of the venue off Olio Road

I was set on Aspen Grill but now I may have to check this Ale Emporium out

Hermanaki wings with bleu cheese and ranch (both homemade)....the best

I may have an extra hotel room right near the venue.  Long story, but randomly checked the HI and got a room there for half the price of one I reserved right when I got my ticket.  If I can confirm that this week, I will have to cancel my ES room.  Wouldn't mind trying to transfer or coordinate the renewing reservation.

Let me know if anyone is interested!

Also, FWIW, there is a room currently available at the Embassy Suites, i just checked for fun.

How much is the room? I am definitely interested. Currently staying at the Ironworks but would love to be within walking distance.

Edit: I just booked a room at the wyndham noblesville 13500 tegler dr. 1 mile from the venue. I thought I was booking direct but it turned out to be from something called reservationcounter.com. I thought I was scammed so I called the hotel direct and my reservation was there! $200. Woo Hoo! Happy to not have to drive as that parking lot is the worst.

Just booked at the Wyndham Noblesville as well, was in Westfield.

I do have worries about 3rd party booking sites. Especially considering that the hotel itself is showing as sold out....
