I think there’s going to be A LOT of disappointed people after lotto winners are announced.

There’s at least 3 opportunities though for those who are worried. Lottery, artist sale, F2F. If you want to get in the door, you will

Totally agree. But people panic after the first drawing. And I see a lot of people going for these shows.

Just don’t choose PJ Premium….just wait and tickets will be available

I understand it helps them sell all their ticket allotment, but they really ruined it making it so easy for people to enter the lottery and then dump tickets. When you were stuck with what you got, it made it so only those truly trying to attend would enter.

Finally a hometown show after 11 years...I'm so happy I could cry!  In for both shows, praying to the GA gods.

In for both

Do we think it’s likely to get picked for both? I can probably only feasibly do one but I want to double my lottery chances by putting in both. But I don’t really want to mess around offloading another set unless I have to

Put in for both shows- only shows I’m able to make this tour. Good luck to everyone!

I put in for N2 but want to switch to N1 on the PJ site. Can I still do that before Monday?

Yes! You can cancel and remake as many requests as you'd like. Only the latest one will be counted after Monday. On the ticket request page, go to menu, then My Requests, click on the request you want to cancel, scroll down, confirm and cancel. Then click menu, new request, and make your new selections. When you are done, your My Requests page should have your new request as well as your cancelled one. You will also receive emails confirming new and cancelled ticket requests

It’s not that easy to dump uppers.  Every entry from anyone with a mediocre or worse number is at risk of landing with unsellable uppers.  It happens every tour.

I may cancel my Double Tree reservations.. found free hot breakfast, fridge/ micro,  evening reception at bar, hot tub at the Drury... who needs to be across from arena anyway 

In 2009, 2013 and 2016 I stayed at the hotel which was right next to Wells Fargo Center in Philly (before it became a casino).  There's something special about being so close! lol

Duhhh... staying at sports complex for a show there is better than riding train into downtown Philly. I'm talking about 12 min walk to venue vs 5 min walk. Not the same difference. Being next to venue in Pittsburgh only helpful if you're queuing all day

Some shady spots in Pittsburgh.  I definitely wouldn’t walk back to the Drury from the arena.  

the drury is not close to any shady spots in pittsburgh. you'd be completely fine to walk.

I don't see 'My Requests' and I did not receive an email from 10 Club for my first request. I only received an email from Ticketmaster.

I believe that, because of the one price model, but posting them early seems to be the way people have got rid of them in the past. Especially for the Northeast shows. I'm just saying, TM could keep the actual rows & sections hidden until it is close to showtime and deter some of this, so it is a mystery of where you will be, kind of like the old will call days.

In for show one. If they don't want to come to Southern Ontario, guess I'll go to them for the second show in a row.

Spot on with this take right here^^^^

And watch the number of threads that will pop-up that so many NEED to sell for various "reasons" when it gets closer to the shows.

Any feedback on the Holiday Inn Pittsburgh West - Green Tree?

Well if I don't get tickets in the lottery or pre sale, I will be checking out those threads!

Requested both shows. Hopefully selected for them but I know I’ll get in with F2F if I’m not selected. Flying solo as usual as my wife doesn’t understand the passion!  Booked the Omni and hopefully sightseeing and eating some local grub while I’m there. Open to recommendations.

It’s fine but it’s in a pretty boring area outside of town.. you’d have to uber to the show… or anything else you might want to do.

It's less than a 5 minute drive to downtown.  It's been around a long time and if it wasn't renovated in the last ten years pretty dated.

Probably gonna be a hard ticket to get, it being weekend shows and arena capacity is only 14,536 for concerts.

I was afraid of this when trying to determine whether to try for this or Nashville.

Can't afford to try for both.

I always read the reviews on Trip Advisor.  It has a decent overall score there but some of the reviews would make me decide to book elsewhere if it were me.

I wonder what the demand will look like for these shows.  Probably higher for Pittsburgh because of the weekend dates and proximity to all of those in the Northeast.  But they’ve also never done two shows in Pittsburgh before so is there enough demand to support it?  And then what about places like Raleigh?  Been thinking about trying for those two as well, but don’t want to get stuck with uppers if the demand is going to be lower and would just take my chances in F2F

Decided to put in for both shows at the last second. May is gonna be a busy month for sure.😁
