    wtf?!

    Come on, there are LOADS of deserving fan club members to give an extra ticket to! But, Craigslist?! I do not approve of that at all!!

    No worries - it's been removed!!

    Good job, people! :)

    Let's keep looking out for each other! :D

    Ok...a few have already posted at Craig's listing and saying they were willing to pay top dollars for the tickets at Vic.


    STOP INVITING THE SCALPERS!!!

    Wish it was $500 - make the competition less!

    That's what I was hoping..... a charity show....

    a couple of questions, maybe these were already answered -

    What does the actual show start? What time can we get there and line-up? What time can we pick up the tickets?

    Can we bring cameras, just like at any other PJ show?

    I woke up in a good moooood with the exciting news Mel told me last night.

    But now I'm nervous...like everyone else!! :D

    I didn't realize that only about 500 people would be able to buy the tickets! Oy vey!

    We would be already there... we will arrive in Chicago about early afternoon after dropping our boys off at the airport in Detroit.

    Worse comes to worst, we'll just hang around at the venue hoping for some extra tickets to get in!

    If a scalper attempts to charge more than that - WATCH OUT!!!

    Yes. It's just going to make tomorrow afternoon more difficult when I have to keep composure (after not getting tickets).

    I can't really think about much else.

    Good luck!

    Right here!
    I keep thinking - "wow, this show is going to be unbelievable!!!"
    Then I realize, "It's going to be hard as shit securing tickets!"
    I just keep wishing tomorrow would come so I would know for sure.

    Then, I'll start worrying about my car making to the show! :D
    Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

    Sure-respond with your name and mobile number-I'll text them and tell them to save a bed for you and your guest-stay up after the show and rent a movie together, order room service--it'll be fun!!

    I don't understand why people are already changing their flights and adding nights to their hotel. Pretty much everyone is under the assumption that their all getting tickets. If this place holds up to 1,400 people that means the maximum (which probably won't end up being) amount of tickets they will release will be 700 pairs. That means only 700 fan club members are gonna be getting tickets. Now I went to Chicago last tour and their were a lot more than 700 fan club members at the show. Furthermore this is the only appearance the band will make this year so you can guess how many more fans are coming in just to see them. You all are not getting tickets!!! Face it!!! So I am in the same boat as everyone else. I am supposed to come in Friday morning with my wife. But to change our flights will cost us over $500 when you include the price of the ticket and hotel. I also understand that pretty much everyone would rather see them at the Vic than at some crappy open air festival where the sound sucks. But why are you guys paying all this money to change your flights when you don't even have tickets yet??? I understand that if you wait till tomorrow the price of your ticket will go up because it will be within seven days of your departure. I called my airline already and they told me it will cost us $185 a piece to change the flight now so who knows what it will be by tomorrow. The bottom line is all you guys who are changing their flights today will be writing threads tomorrow about how this band suck because I didn't get any tickets and I paid all this money to change my flight.

    i changed my flight only because i had a lucky loophole....
    i rec'd an email about a week or two ago that said that american airlines had changed the arrival time of my flight (it was only by like 15-20 minutes, but whatever...)
    therefore when this show came up, i called and asked about changing my arrival for an earlier flight.
    they told me that because they had adjusted the schedule that i could change the flight without being charged.
    i would not have been able to change it if not for that fact...
    we are 4 people (husband and I and our two sons) and it would have cost too much!!!

    soooo, if i don't get the tickets which i hope i do (PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!)
    we'll have a whole extra day in Chicago... :)

    Amazing venue on the north side of the city. Probably 35 mins from either airport depending on traffic (probably none on Thursday evening). I'll be in front with cash if anybody that gets tickets decides to go solo. I'll pay for both of us and more if that's what it takes.

    They usually don't post that or home address on here. I would think they like some space, and don't want 5,000 PJ fans waiting in the lobby. Would you want everyone bugging you?

    You will need to use your head if you hope to meet guys in the band, but many of us have been able to without stalking them.
