    I don’t want to create a separate thread for this but I reached out to Dickies Arena to put out feelers about giving out wristbands for the GA line and a rep got back to me today and said that they are planning to do just that with one huge caveat. The rep went on to describe the same process DMB did for their Pit where you get a numbered wristband but they call out a random number about 45 mins before doors and that number becomes the first to enter. Meaning if they call out 120 that person is first, 121 is second, etc etc. He said this was to discourage people being there all day and hopefully alleviate heat related medical issues. 

    The rep said nothing is finalized yet but to watch their social media account in the next few weeks for more details.

    What do you guys think? Would anyone like to see a random lottery for GA entry at FTW or even all the shows? 
    Seems like a great idea. Now I just need @Shza to transfer some GA tickets to me for the Chicago shows.
    Wish I had some extras... Steven87 can hook you up! 
    I just assumed Steven87 was your alrer ego! :rofl:
    Hahahaha, nope not SHZA’s alter ego. But I’ve been inspired by SHZA to up my F2F game. And I’ve had some amazing luck this go around!
    You all have definitely upped your games! I can't imagine how many hours have gone in to your upgrades!
    Thank god they do not have a TM timer to tell us lol. It would be pretty embarrassing. 
    Hahahahahaha 
    Oh no. I just realized for those of you who have iPhones and use the TM app, there is essentially a TM timer. The screen time function contains a break down by app. And I just made the mistake of checking the entry for the TM app. I really wish I hadn’t done that- that is something I can never unsee. 🤣
    I am not looking lol. I do half of it on Mac/phone too ugh
    Whatever you do, don’t look. You’ll never feel the same way about yourself again lol. 
  • Hi,
    I thought I was out for this tour, some plans changed and I might be able to get out to St. Paul after all. I've always gotten tix via 10C, I haven't used F2F before. From reading through the last few pages of comments, is the best strategy to check ticketmaster as often as possible, and maybe you get lucky with GA or good reserved seating?  

    I also noticed the pricing on reserved seating varies pretty widely, even though it's supposedly face value. Is that just reflective of the way the original face value seats were tiered?  

    If anyone has anything available for those nights I am interested. Thanks all!

    Some dude on EBay has two AUS2 GA for $3,500. I’ve almost reported the listing but thought better of it.

    That's why I keep hope of at least ONE GA Austin N2 ticket on day of show. No way those sell. They'll go right back to F2F😎

    Hi,
    I thought I was out for this tour, some plans changed and I might be able to get out to St. Paul after all. I've always gotten tix via 10C, I haven't used F2F before. From reading through the last few pages of comments, is the best strategy to check ticketmaster as often as possible, and maybe you get lucky with GA or good reserved seating?  

    I also noticed the pricing on reserved seating varies pretty widely, even though it's supposedly face value. Is that just reflective of the way the original face value seats were tiered?  

    If anyone has anything available for those nights I am interested. Thanks all!
    Basically the more often you check TM, the more likely you’ll eventually stumble on to some really good seats or GA. But you have to be quick with the checkout because others are trying for the tickets as well. The reason some seats are priced higher than others is because some tickets were originally sold as higher-priced PJ premium tickets. When people who bought those tickets are ultimately unable to attend the show, they can only relist them for the price they paid- hence why some F2F tickets are standard price and others are much higher.

    I just posted a ticket for St. Paul N2 and it looks like there are a lot available. Mine is section 114, seat 6. I'd love for you to buy it.

    Bunch of premiums just dropped for Indy, hope they sit and rot for the next few weeks.

    are people really buying up the AUS1 premiums in 120 and 118? I haven't looked in a bit and the 118's are almost gone. I'm hoping for those 120's to sit as long as possible so they have to lower, but I guess people are buying unless they pulled a few back to make it look like it.

    I wouldn’t put it past them to create false scarcity.

    I am hoping the same, but it seems that AUS 1 looks to be the more popular of the 2 shows (not surprisingly).
