Neil Young Tickets

Hey all,

I was wondering if anyone has an extra Uncle Neil GA ticket or 2 for either of next weeks Toronto shows?
I'd like to go to one of them as a fan, but I won't spend more than face value. I have a friend that would like to go with me if I can get her a ticket, but if I can only get one for me...thats ok too.

Anyone??

    I am going to Friday's show with a friend I work who's based in Toronto. We're in the seats. Pretty high prices but I don't care. A trip to Toronto on short notice...and for Neil Young -- someone I haven't seen live since '89 (not counting PJ's '04 VFC show in Toledo), I am stoked.

    What's face for GA? Good luck in scoring the tickets!

    Ohh sweet!1 yes he is well worth it, but I'm moving in 4 weeks so I can't spend that much. Face for GA's is $78 plus TM fees.

    Good luck scoring tickets ACC! :)

    Will be seeing the Godfather of Grunge at the Halifax show this Saturday.
    Wished though it was DCFC opening for him.
    Wilco will have to do.

    ga floor is better anyway. i've been to 2 shows so far and gotten within 15-20 feet of THE MAN both times. seeing him again in chicago in a couple of weeks!

    check craigslist often, and also check ticketmaster as some tickets become available leading up to the show. good luck!!


    I did last night and everyone wants double face value for a GA.
    I'm keeping an eye on TM too.

    Oh yeah, if you can't make the Thursday Neil Young show, I got an extra Montreal Canadiens vs New York Rangers NHL ticket at the Bell Centre, in Montreal if you're interested! :)

    Definitely due to the prices in the 100s. Upwards of $200 wasn't it? Even for Uncle Neil, that's madness!

    Myself being a poor university student who's already spent an obscene amount of money this summer on concerts could only afford the 300 level seats in Ottawa this year, but after writing 5 rather lengthy essays and before exams begin, it will be a welcome treat. Best timing ever! :)

    Thats very sweet of you but between train and hotel...WAY too expensive, especially with my move right around the corner.
    Have fun!

    A few days ago a couple pairs of GA floors went for $180. After service charges and tax a $75 ticket is just over $90 from TM. So with the exchange $180 is little over face for a pair. There were also lower and upper level seats below cost as poeple with extras are getting desperate to unload.

    Oh wow!! Sometimes auctions read like its $180 for the pair when its really $180 per ticket. I hope for the sake of the buyers that it was for the pair.
