    Yes. Some people give advanced notice. But that doesn't make it easier. It might make it harder since more people will be ready to pounce.

    Apologies for any ignorance in asking but for those who've used F2F before - I'm assuming that we see the most tickets available very close to the show date vs. when they are first opened up and made available? Is that a fair assumption to make? Going to be looking for some Chicago tickets and just trying to understand the best way to do this. Thanks in advance for any wisdom anyone has to offer!
    im going to be looking for Chicago tix too, but will they be Fan 2 Fan? I don't think they are, New York too?
    F2f will still be available for Chi and NYC
    In the past, they have not offered fan2fan where tickets have to be transferable.  They are not allowed to implement that ticket restriction.  I'm wondering if Boston will have fan2fan as Fenway is not a Ticketmaster controlled venue..

    If there's no F2F for some reason, does it all just end up going out on StubHub & other 3rd party sites? Illinois law is that you are not allowed to make tickets non-transferable? Am I reading that right? The double negatives always get me :)

    That was the case in 2022 for MSG, but last year fan2fan was offered for Chicago despite the transfer law. And the Cure shows at MSG last year were on fan-to-fan as well, so I'd expect fan2fan will be available for PJ at MSG too

    If I sell tickets on F2F, does TM pay swiftly, or do you have to wait until after the show?

    Thanks.

    When I sold spare tickets to Oakland, the funds arrived in my bank account within several business days. I didn't have to wait for the shows.  Same when I sold spares for last years EV shows (when I was upgrading).

    The biggest challenge with Fan2Fan is when they actually turn it on. It's like a game of chicken with platinum tickets :)
