oh wow, TM just dumped a bunch of side stage tickets at FV for both the Sat and Mon night.  starting a few rows behind the fan2fan ones I bought this morning,.

This time I couldn’t resist- I bought a pair in the 11th row, mike’s side. Hopefully we just can’t see the screens (which I could care less about) and the stage is unobstructed. 

That's what I'm hoping for.  Side Stage ticket are generally pretty amazing.  Almost as close as being on the front of the floor, but you get an elevated view

Exactly. I’ve had many great experiences with side stage seats in the past- some of the best seats in the house IMO. And I’m thinking/hoping they wouldn’t have sold these seats if there was a big obstruction in the way. I guess we’ll find out on opening night!

I’m holding out for something even better for Monday! There’s quite a bit at C$276 (maybe that’s not all in) which is PJ Premium but honestly in C$ I’m pretty sure some of the standard prices in other countries round to within spitting distance of this.  But there’s still 3 weeks for some of these to go standard.

It also looks like the ticket they did add were all on the boundary, so maybe they decided they had a little more room to sell those tickets without an obstructed view.

My gut says they haven't shown their entire hand yet.  That burst a month ago was mostly back of the lower bowl.  I don't think 10c'ers got all those seats in the closer side section.  I have a feeling TM still has a fair number they haven't put up for sale yet.

The challenge for us was not getting left holding the bag.    So far we've been lucky enough to sell then buy, but pretty soon that might not be an option, as TM will compete with fan2fan.

I am without anything for Van2 and am enjoying being a free agent as the situation unfolds! I had bought something last week but sold it.

Yep.  Holding out on night 2 for now.  There are so many tickets, that I can wait it out and hope that there really was a screw up with GA, and those are still coming.  If not, I can just grab something later.

Has anyone in the US sold tickets for these shows? I know there are some restrictions and differences in how it works.

Yes. You have to open a Wise account, which essentially serves as a Canadian bank account. It only takes a few minutes to open, and then you will be able to use that account to sell tickets on F2F.

Boatload of additional premiums for Van2.  Can’t wait for standard pricing to kick in.

Tons of seats available. It’s just a waiting game at this point.

Disagree with it being unfeasible to convert back to hockey for the 5th. 

"Then you have the big issue, which is Pearl Jam, who have Rogers Arena booked from May 4-6. While they are only playing on May 4 and 6, it would be unfeasible to convert the arena back to hockey in between the two dates. This could cause a multi-day break if the series is pushed to Game 7, which in turn would cause scheduling issues for the start of Round 2"

How is that any different than having a game happen with two different bands playing on the 4th and 6th vs the same band. 

Arenas do that all of the time.

That’s hockey reporting as usual 😆 
Everything is made into high drama.

Agreed. More realistic than bumping a show.

Might be the end of them until just days before. Sales not what expected, so can't see them holding on to much more that haven't been offered up yet till a few last minute drops. Definitely gonna be some good ones out there/prices coming down on whats up now.

On the other hand sales are so shitty for Van2 I could see them cancelling and using the hockey as an excuse.

My guess- mind you this is just a guess- is that there isn’t all that much inventory left that hasn’t been released yet. Those premium drops in 104 and 119 the other day were pretty large and contained many of the best seats in the house. Also, if I recall correctly, I believe the first few rows side stage were released and sold as premiums already during the TM verified sale. So what I’m expecting to see is a few smaller drops closer to the show (artist/production holds, etc.), and that the prices will continue to drop and the remaining premiums will eventually convert to standards on the week/day of the show.

I listed this single for night 1 if anyone is interested.

I think the first 10 rows near the stage starting from 118 and 105 have yet to be filled. Expect to see those a week before the show.
