Anyone get them today? I still haven't gotten a email back, so I have no idea. I probably won't get them though, since they are literally impossible to get.

    Two of my buddies have received emails say they haven't. I still haven't heard. One of my friend has a Phish order pending on his credit card though, so thats a good sign. Check your credit card online and if their is an order pending then you should go by lottery tickets because your very lucky.

    Just heard! Scored two tickets to the last show of the tour at Saratoga! Lawn seats, but just to get through the door is worth it!

    I requested tickets for Columbia, MD, but was denied. However, I did get my previous request for tickets to the Burgettstown, PA show on the earlier part of the tour.

    I tried for Hartford today. I was able to try for pavilion tickets, but while processing the live nation site booted me back to the homepage. Surprise, surprise. I was able to get through again, but opted to not pick up lawn seats because I heard it isn't a great place to be when @ the meadows. Luckily a buddy of mine traded his great woods pavilion tickets for pavilion Hartford so looks like it all worked about. Will be doing a three show tour in august starting with Hartford, then merriweather and ending in NY. Looking forward to it. Congrats to all who got tickets, if the shows were anything like Hampton we won't be disappointed!

    Honestly though, I kind of liked the live nation site better than Ticketmaster. Once they perfect it more it should run much smoother.

    i definitely like LiveNation more than TM. LN rewards patience and perseverance.

    i actually went to a Blockbuster outlet to pick up these tickets. here's the story i posted on the Phish board i go to:
    everyone at my BB agreed it should be 1st come/1st serve no matter how many people showed up (only 8 did)

    what i don't understand is that the entire time we were waiting around for them to pull up tickets i was saying to Sarah [the girl who works for Blockbuster] and all the other people that LiveNation sucks and to stick around just in case more become available 30-40min after the initial selling period.

    after the first 5 tickets were sold of which 3 went to me, 3 of the people in line left :shock: i couldn't believe it. i went back to the end of the line b/c i was gonna have BB pull up as many tickets as they could get.

    one girl in line was actually able to pull up 2 lawns via LiveNation's phone system and then picked up another 2 from the BB store.

    all told the store was able to get ~15 tickets, 5 of which i was able to get just b/c i was patient

    I actually stopped by my local blockbuster to ask them if they were selling tickets, but they said it just a trial thing right now in select major cities. Glad to hear it went smoothly.

    i got really lucky b/c of all the blockbusters in Maine, this was the only one that was a LiveNation outlet and it was 3/4 of a mile away from my apartment. i was upset at first that i didn't know b/c i thought i could've been there for when June show tix went on sale but apparently LiveNation didn't start up there until 3 weeks ago

    Four nights in Red Rocks and I couldn't score a single ticket :evil: . I had some friends trying also but we all were shut-out! I know it will be a tough ticket to find but I will not give up the fight. Only need 1 ticket for any of the shows, if anyone can help send me a pm. You WILL be taken care of ;), Thanks
    So, What you Giving ?........ (Thanks Speedy, Alesek, & Arq+friends)
    What You Giving

    I suggest you step out on your Porch.
    Run away my son. See it all. Oh, See the World!
  • OneTooFreeOneTooFree Posts: 265
    good luck man, i know a lot of people in CO who were shut out...


    unfortunately, the bottom line w/ RR is that unless you have other tickets to trade or a lot of cash it's gonna be damn near impossible to go. i'd love to go but that's gonna be a giant cluster fuck and as much as it's been a dream of mine to see Phish play there, it's just gonna be too much of a hassle for me to want to deal with
  • TallGuyCMTallGuyCM Posts: 328
    Man oh man. I really can't remember the last time there was a tour that caused the amount of frenzy that this Phish tour has.

    I was LUCKY LUCKY LUCKY and was able to score 3 lawn seats for the Shoreline show in SF in August. The show went on sale at noon, and after I got my tickets I went back to see if I could get even 1 lawn ticket at 12:02 just out of curiosity, and the entire thing was sold out.
  • OneTooFreeOneTooFree Posts: 265

    I would seriously doubt that Phish would be playing Fenway. Mainly because I can't see Boston wanting the "scene" right in the middle of the city. If they play the Garden a least they are on the outskirts of Boston, if they played Fenway the would be right in the thick of things. The amount of drugs those shows bring it would frankly, be bad for everyone involved, especially those selling stuff. The Boston police wouldn't hesitate arresting everyone they can get their hands on. I know that when Buffet played there the Parrotheads weren't really allowed to do their thing before the show, and the parking lot space is extremely limited.. Also, as bad as it is, the Fenway shows are more directed towards season ticket holders (hence Springsteen, the Stones, Buffet, DMB, Neil Diamond, and the Police). The crowd is always older and very mild. Also, Fenway has already booked DMB to play at the end of may and usually they only have one show a year. But, this time its early so maybe they are trying to pack two in. I just can't see a lot of bands playing the ballpark. The neighborhood complains a lot about noise, which is why I don't expect Pearl Jam to ever play there.

    I would be curious to hear from anyone who has attended the DMB shows there in regards to how they policed the scene, because DMB fans definitely like to pregame also.

    Feel free to rub it in though if it does happen though :)

    sorry jervin, but it's gonna happen... ;):D

    I definitely wouldn't be complaining. I am hitting up three shows in August so it would be nice to get a taste a few months early. DMB and Phish does have the same management company so it does make some sense. It would be nice to have some different music come to fenway and pave the way for future acts. It does look like the sox will be on a long road trip, so that would give them a chance to repair the field, clean up, etc.

    I just think it will be a complete mess if it happens. The Boston Police Department will be arresting people right and left. Not that I really care, I was turned off from the parking lot scene at Phish shows when I started being offered heroin, pharmaceuticals, and crack.

    "bad" will all depend on what you prefer... would you rather have to deal with loud drunken frat boys or spun out hippie wookies?

    I don't really mind the drunk frat boys, just as long they aren't spilling shit all over me. I don't mind the hippies either, as most of them are really chill. The people I can't stand are the totally scumbag dealers who are selling really sketchy shit and walk by you saying "got your heroin" in a really soft voice.

    I also absolutely hate the people who go to these shows begging to be "miracled." Pay for your way in like everyone else. Annoying.

    Bad is that there will be a huge amount of people, more than they should let in the place. The drunken frat boys usually just add to the shit show that the DMB shows are.
