Being able to get into Wrigley for $40 bucks is hopefully a sign to the band to re evaluate things in the future
Fan to Fan hurts fans, not help them. They need to consider tiered pricing and full transferability of all tickets in the future.
GA should be $249-299 Lower Bowl $149-199 Upper Bowl $79

Absolutely agree. F2F might have started with good intentions but now it just hurts real fans. The pro scalpers have both a way to transfer tickets, even the so called non-transferable tickets AND bots to instantly snap up the best tickets when they're listed on F2F.
Shit, If I see Fenway 2 tix under $50 it might be impossible to pass up on the day of
Not sure you will thanks to Fan to Fan, theyre mostly locked in at the 190 price. If tickets were openly transferable, I am confident you could get tickets for 50-75 come show time. A huge flaw in the system.

It's a double edged sword. If tickets are fully transferable, you're going to see much higher demand in Ten Club lotteries with people looking to flip GA tickets. It will be even harder to get those tickets at face. It does suck however in cases where StubHub or TM undercut people who can't reduce their price via F2F.
The best you can do is work the current system. Other than getting awesome seats for face through Ten Club, I would not even think about buying tickets for shows this size until a couple days before the show. Platinum pricing in advance especially, you're getting straight up mugged.

I'm torn about Fenway 1 since the F2F is going to shut down 10 days in advance.
Part of me wants to gamble, & hope either for a ticket drop close to the show or take a shot w/ Stubhub the day of, but I don't want to be stuck in a crap seat.
I think I'd rather see TM improve the Fan2Fan system, rather allow tickets to be fully transferable. I really don't want to see if a free for all on 10c tickets from resellers.
Fix the loopholes scalpers are using to sell the ticket
Allow them to be sold below face value
Make a time of day all the tickets get posted at once, so people aren't living on fan2fan.
Charge a little bit extra for all the tickets so you don't need to do platinum
I'd also rather see them just sell less 10C tickets then give out bad seat locations for 10C tickets. 20 year member, and apparently I'll be watching the show at Fenway through a net since the net goes so far down the baseline now.
Are there any other artists who do this for shows of this capacity?
There are plenty of people willing to pay for $300+ GA tickets and I’m confident they would still instantly sell out at that price
There are also tons of people who would pay $59-$79 for upper level just to see the band
What NO ONE wants is to pay $190 for nosebleeds, and I think we’re seeing that with the ballpark shows especially

Stubhub has some under $100 right now and hopefully will go lower as the date comes. Not great seats, but depending on how I feel about night 1 I may pull the trigger just to get into the building.
Pleasantly surprised the consensus seems to be coming around on flat pricing and F2F being a net negative for the majority of fans.
The threads where 1-2 people are F5ing constantly for 6 months trying to cart every single ticket are comical.
I am active on F2F the week after it opens because of the initial extra ticket dump
Then again a week before the show as the second dump happens when people can’t make it
But the months in between those two weeks, it’s a waste of time
