I've been trying to get 2 for Baltimore and 1 or 2 for Philly 1. It's crazy how fast tickets sell. Even on timed drops when you know they are appearing, they are gone instantly.
Yeah, just saw a pair of great Philly 1 seats. I selected from the map before they even showed up on the list and couldn’t even cart them.
Failed to cart Baltimore Sunday night, and errored out on Philly 1 Monday morning. Frustrating.
That said, I did get great seats for Philly 2 on f2f, and got a second pair that wasn’t as good for the same show while thinking I was on the philly1 page.
What are your thoughts on using list view vs. map view in the TM app? I’ve always used list view and have had pretty good success in the past. In the past, it used to seem like tickets would usually appear in the list before the map updated. So for GA and the best seats, by the time the section lit up in blue, the seats were already gone. Do you think that’s now changed? Interested to hear your thoughts on the best strategy.

Not sure what the best strategy is. I’ve only scored tickets from the map once and I think it was due to glitchy tickets as I got them after repeatedly trying to cart them for at least 10 minutes.

Looks like they pulled the pair for N1 secB to list N2. Hopefully in few more weeks it opens up but I’m nervous about all the “premium” tix hitting f2f with little to none below $250. Looking for N2 or looking for a nice dinner spot to take the wife
Curious to see how much Philly opens up. Camden ‘22 didn’t budge until the week or two before the show. Will be interesting to see as myself and a bunch of fans are ticketless.

Yeah, I still need a pair of Philly 1 right now, but I’m not too worried about it. Only reason I’m still searching periodically is for extra insurance. Camden was the same market and only one show, and I know for a fact that there were people who ended up eating tickets for that show in 22.

I feel like there were more tickets for Camden. I pulled f2f months out w/o much difficulty and was able to get great upgrades the week leading up. This time… crickets.
you couldn't swing if you were hangin' from a palm tree in a hurricane
As someone who travels on PJ trips with anxiety..making plans for Philly with no ticket makes me so nervous 😬
I certainly don’t recommend or necessarily condone doing this, but last time I went to Philly ticketless was for the ten show in 2016. I thought I was going to get stranded alone in the parking lot, but finally got a nosebleed 5 minutes before the show started. Walked into the first entrance I saw knowing the band was coming onstage, just kept walking until I found an empty seat. Ended up front row of section 124 on the good aisle. There were two of us taking up like 6 empty seats that no one ever showed up to claim. Magical experience.

Its difficult to compare Camden to Philly. Many fans love the summer BBQ party atmosphere at Camden. Having an inventory of nearly 20,000 lawn tickets helps satiate demand there.
With Philly being 2 shows, and normally plenty of fans wanting both, limits supply.
Plus, the speculation of the lottery consisting of a single draw, seems to have maximized fans winning multiple shows, which means more fans on the outside looking in with fewer ticket winners
Aaaaaaaand, those lovely screens means about 10,000 fewer tickets for the 2 shows
I really don’t recall Camden tickets being available months before the show. There was Lawn F2F for a while but seats were almost impossible until 2 weeks before. Maybe I’m wrong.
I would absolutely do behind the stage for Philly 1 if it was available

2013 did behind the stage there, Denver 2014 too… it’s a great perspective… remember Philly Betterman, all the cell phone lights and singalong…. I felt like I was in the band 🤣

You’re right. Camden was a hard ticket to get until the day before the show. Lawn was a little easier if you were monitoring f2f, but even those tickets were sold instantly until the day of.
lol to the person who suggested there are 10,000 seats being unsold behind the stage because of the screen. This isn’t a football stadium.

I feel ya. I booked flight and hotel for Wrigley 2 just last week. No ticket, yet. I am very anxious but have to go now.
BTW, ISO a single for Wrigley 2. GA would be delightful and make flying in just for the show from Santa Fe more worth it.

We "won" for the first show 2nd chance and have an AirBnB from Thursday to Sunday and will see what happens with night 2. We canceled the Philly place because this year has a different vibe.

I do have a person who has a hotel I can room with in Philly and she would drive us to Baltimore..the flight stuff makes me nervous cuz if I skip philly I need to fly to DC so my brother can get me..I'll figure it out eventually I guess

not sure if lol means you are agreeing or disagreeing, as internet communications can be difficult.
There areTWO shows at Wells Fargo, which has a 21,000 capacity per show with seats rear or stage. Some stats from its wiki page proving my estimate of 10,000 fewer tickets for the two shows.
In 2017, Lady Gaga sold out two nights at the arena, with an attendance of 32,296 during her Joanne World Tour.
(Sell outs would have yielded 42,000 in a full arena with rear seating)
On August 12, 1996, a private concert by Ray Charles was the first event at the CoreStates Center, with a crowd of nearly 12,000. Each spectator was given a commemorative key acknowledging they helped "open the arena". The inaugural concert, on September 2, 1996, featured Oasis, with The Manic Street Preachers and The Screaming Trees, before an estimated crowd of 12,000.[9] The Wells Fargo Center has since held other concerts by many famous artists.
The Baltimore zombies are gone. Did someone here get them?

Yeah those Baltimore tickets were there all day. Curious if someone ended up snagging them at the end or if they sold immediately and it just took hours for the system to reflect that they were unavailable.
I actually called Ticketmaster to see if I could buy them over the phone….the answer was no, they don’t do sales over the phone anymore.

How else are they going to finance those euro price drops?
