    0-2 in Hollywood. Oh well, they’ll definitely be back in Florida soon, right? RIGHT?!
    I haven’t gotten anything on FL. Did you get an email??
    I didn’t receive an email stating I was selected and given the time passed since others have, I assume I got shut out.

    I assume the same for me.  

    First off, there's no sane reason for them playing the Hard Rock Hollywood, vs. the Kia Center in Orlando for example, with a much better central location and it has about three times the capacity.

    Secondly, you think that they'd have perfected the system after about 34 years.  Why should I hang on to a 20+ year old membership (208XXX) if I can't get in the house in my home state for at least one of two shows?  


    Yeah I was surprised to see that they weren’t returning to Sunrise like they did in ‘16. Saw them there that night - great show. Once I saw the venue, I knew odds were stacked against me. I’ve been lucky every lottery before though, so I can’t complain. Just tough for me down here because they rarely play FL anymore so I have to travel to see them and that ain’t cheap.

    Weirder and weirder with TicketsToday, but I'm gonna take this as a good sign. 1-4 it seems. 




    And they show your seat location. You are the first one to know their reserved seats, I think. You've definitely experienced a glitch in the Matrix.

    Oh, damn. Was that from your email, or the TM website that lists your lottery submissions?

    The seats assignment is from an email, but it's another weird one from TicketsToday. I'm not 100% convinced those will actually be my seats in the end, but I do feel confident that I won Pitt N2. 1-4!

    Awesome, it'll be interesting if those are legit. I'm 499XXX so I wonder how those would compare. It's close to the section I was expecting, but maybe I'm being far too optimistic.

    I really thought Raleigh would be a “everyone in the door” show.  I’m really surprised people got shut out there.  
    I really don’t think the band thinks of these things. 
    I just meant odds wise.  I thought Raleigh would be a show where everyone who put in for it ended up getting tickets.

    Live and die by F2F.  It’s great if you miss out on tickets in the lottery but it also encourages people to put in for more shows than they’re realistically planning to see. But they can have a buy now and figure it out later mentality with being able to drop seats on F2F down the road.  

    Maybe they just need to make tickets totally non transferable and eliminate F2F.  Then people will have to be way more selective and it will cut down on entries.

    As long as 10C is selling tickets they seem to not give a shit anymore who gets them. 

    There used to be a huge risk putting in for shows and winning with willcall being the only option for receiving tickets. Now as you said people can just put in for whatever and figure it out later hurting the people that just want a couple of specific shows. No priority on top of that makes it even harder to hit that show you really want to see. 

    Now 10C is likely selling more tickets than ever in the smaller markets with people gambling for GA. Those tickets will hang on fan to fan never selling but who cares they are sold already I guess.

    The other thing is… whatever system they implement people will find a work around to make it an advantage.

    Honestly priority and will call is almost as perfect as a system you can get imo. With correct odds being displayed too. We were spoiled for years with that system looking back at it and what we have now.

    Maybe they could have limited people to one night won per city since it’s such a short tour.  Like how they’ve done with MSG in the past.

    For Hollywood and maybe Pitts that should have been a given. With the other cities if they wanted to implement something like that have a lotto for night 1. Then do night 2 only considering those that missed N1 or only wanted N2. Then if there are tickets remaining for N2 have another lotto to fill it with the winners of N1. 

    Its not hard to make it more fair. But I am on the losing side here the last couple of lottos so maybe I am a bit biased lol.
