PJ Vegas and the Sphere

Who is hitting both PJ shows and Dead & Co
I’ll be there and hope to find a ticket for Dead/Co. anyone have one?

I’m doing both and may be able to help you out w/a spare GA for the sphere. 

I offered my extra to a friend but they balked at the price. $395 was face.
 They said ‘that’s a lot of grilled cheese sandwiches’ but didn’t give me a definite’NO’. 

So I’ll keep you in mind if I decide to sell.

Cool. Thank you. I’ll be traveling solo from Boston.

You guys sure it's the Sphere? Or does it go by that MGM Grand blabla name as well-I've been looking and can't see PJ Sphere officially. Sorry if it's a dumb q

I might have an extra reserved dead and co for 295 face.  Won’t know until closer to.

I've seen 5 shows.. don't get limited view under the overhang. Esp if only doing 1 show.. it cuts off top half of visuals and that's the best part of going

I’m doing PJ on Thursday and Dead & Co. on Friday. I managed to grab a Dead & Co. ticket in the 400 section off of the secondary market for a “reasonable to me” price a few weeks ago.

How did that happen? To date the tickets are not transferable and the sell feature doesn’t work, just like PJ.

They don’t have to be transferable yet to sell on stubhub etc as long as they can transfer by the show date.

Dead & company are playing the Sphere not PJ

I’m also doing this - PJ > Dead and Co > PJ 

Hitting the sphere for Phish in April too. 

Should be a solid few months!

I know, but who can trust that TM will enable the transfer button? Someone I know recently experienced tickets they were trying to sell never becoming transferable even though they weren’t sold with transfer restrictions.

Purchased through Seat Geek. From my understanding only GA tickets are non-transferable. Ticket is in my account.

Not to promote secondary ticket purchasing (I have no issue with it), but I’ve decent luck with SG. Had an issue with a transfer ticket to an MLB playoff game last fall. They managed to get me in with a better seat without an up charge. Likely due to them being an official partner of MLB. Funny how that works…

Also doing both PJ & the Dead. I opted for 2 Dead Shows (THU/FRI) and 1 PJ (SAT) though. I've got 8 PJ shows this year alone, and I figure this will be my LAST go round with the Dead (though i thought that LAST year when i traveled to the Gorge thinking it was the Dead's "FINAL TOUR" as they advertised). Turns out the 24 shows at the Sphere is NOT at TOUR it is a RESIDENCY, so technically they apparently didn't lie about last year's final tour. In any case, as an experienced Vet of the Dead (Seen well over 100 shows - 55 WITH JERRY), I know they are prone to a 'dud' here and there so I wanted to make sure I got TWO shows in case one of them lets me down. Seen 42 PJ shows with 8 more to come this year to hit my magic 50th (in AUSTRAILA!!!) and NONE of them have ever been a dud, so I'm not worried on that front.

I have been trying to get clarification but I at least think that in each week of the residency all 3 Dead shows are the same and they only switch it up week to week.  If anyone knows with certainty one way or the other please jump in.

That's how it happened. Paranoia about TM is a separate issue. In the unlikely event the seller can't deliver there'd be a refund and probably other seats on TM for face

We are seriously considering doing this. Went to the last two U2 shows 2 weeks ago - Sphere is an amazing venue - and don't have any 1st leg PJ shows scheduled. Have been waiting impatiently for F2F to open up. Almost to the point of just buying those upper limited view, but I know I won't be happy with those.

Resist the temptation!
