    After 15yrs...I think I'm finally done with these sites. So, check TM leading up like people are saying.....most places should have some pop up (NY in 2008 did not though, but that was crazy to get into to). I've also seen a bunch of fan club members that had singles before the show. I'm contemplating flying to Chicago in hopes of scoring a single....but who knows. Good Luck!!

    Wow dude....is this Al Gore? You have been using Stub Hub and Ebay for 15 years? That is pretty incredibe.

    I worked in ticketing years for 3 years in Philadelphia and have been involved with the secondary market on and on for the past 2. Every listing on Stub Hub is listed on every other smaller broker site. Call them and bargain. They always will. Stug Hub charges 15% to the seller so you will rarely find tickets for less than 15% above face value.

    I am very very very familiar with the secondary ticket market so feel free to PM me with any questions. If you are attentive you can always find ticket close to face value.

    Well, if I can´t score on TC tickets, than I think everybody´s gonna be tired of me asking for help!

    I have a good feeling, though. Last week, on thursday night I had a dream of attending a pj concert and I had the idea of it being in seattle. For real! The next day, on a local newspaper, there was a U2 contest in wich I participated. At the time I thought the dream was a sign that I would win a 10 disc box set. The winner was announced yesterday. After I saw the name of the winner (wich was someone else) I read the TC email announcing these shows......I have a good feeling....hmmm

    Hey PJ nation. Can anyone give me a bit of advice on buying tickets on stubhub or ticketmaster.

    I´m not planning on going to chicago or toronto this year. Hopefuly, there will be a larger tour later this year. I don´t care where in the usa, but I´ll be there. I don´t live in the usa, but i hope to catch at least one ticket through TC to get a chance of a decent seat. After that if everything goes as planned, at least i want to attend 4 shows or 5....

    For the chicago shows, through ticketmaster, the best seats i could find today where the upper levels for 66 dollars. When the time to decide comes in the future i would like to be sure this is all i can get through TM.

    The other site Stubhub is crazy right now. The prices are too high. I could travel to the usa 3 times and still spend less on the plane tickets!

    If I were to wait until say 3 days before the shows and buy them on stubhub or TM, will there be a chance of getting better seats and cheaper? I´ll be watching the prices for these coming shows and see how it fluctuates these coming months as it gets closer to the show. I have no idea what to do right now if it were these shows i wanted to attend.

    Please give me a bit of good advice, a huge fan will appreciate it for all eternity!

    I bet there are other fans outside the usa that would thank you too!


    Unless you have already done so id bag Chicago. Come to Los Angeles. If you haven't joined 10C do it now. You could have a chance at better seats if more shows are added. Also, Ticketsnow is a scam. Stubhub is overpriced. If you lived here in the States and if the show is sold out you do ebay the week of the show. Thats the best way if you dont get tix the old fashioned way.

    Thanks for your help though. You´ll probably hear from me if I can´t get TC tickets. Peace my friend :D

    Actually I am planning on going to the seattle shows and LA. The problem is that I wish to Buy the plane tickets this week or at least in more than two months advance to get them cheaper. But in order to do that I must be sure to have tickets and I don´t want crappy seats, I am not demanding front row, but I don´t want to be way in the back also. I don´t want to be there still searching for tickets if you know what i mean.
