    So, I've never bought tickets from the goods section before. After you click the "BUY" icon - does it right away reserve you tickets for, like, a 5 minute period or something?

    Or are there more screens to quickly get through?

    In other words, what's the general protocol?

    Thanks a bunch!!! :D
    Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

    All day I have been thinking about tomorrow. I couldn't even eat my lunch I'm so nervous.

    I'm not nervous about getting tickets but I am worried about getting the time off from work. Screw it......I have plenty of sick time.....I'll be in the doghouse at work for a while but I'm damn sure it will be worth it!

    He looked at me and said, ''Patrick you have to go cause I'll never hear the end of it if I don't let you''. hehe



    I'm usually not nervous but for this show I am a wreck. lol

    Okay, I'd much rather NOT try and read 46 pages right now so I have to ask:

    WHAT IS THE SHOW TIME???!!!!

    With all this "ask your boss for the day off" crap, is it a day time show? If it is evening, when does it start at? I have to know the time so I can plan on leaving early, etc. if need be.
    I won't change direction, and I won't change my mind - E.V.

    So they don't reserve one for you right away like Ticketmaster does? Then, you have like 5 minutes to pay for them, and then tell them where to be shipped (although that latter step won't apply here).

    That could make all the difference. Because if it takes me longer than a bunch of other people to type in my credit card information - then I'm screwed if they aren't held for the 5 minute period.

    Oh man oh man oh man! What do I do? I've already got the road trip all worked out, but now if I want to go to this I've got to ditch my friends on the ride up. Plus I have to get an extra day off work (I'm going to have to cancel my summer camping trip). Plus I have to get off work early tommorrow to buy the tix. But I can't even imagine seeing PJ in a 1400 capacity venue. I hope my friends and my boss let me do this.

    I have to see if my wife will let me change our travel plans! This is one I don't want to miss. I'd rather go to this than Lolla...
    Cheers!

    the problem isn't the time it takes to type in your CC details, it's the time it takes for each page to load when the server is under stress!
    I have shivers thinking about those excruciating waits for the next page to load..and timing out! during the London sell..and even last year for the Euro shows.

    I've now taken steps to try to minimise that risk (sorry, not telling)..

    You shoudl work that out before trying to buy tickets. Like Tim said in the first post in this thread, don't buy tickets if you might not be able to go because it just screws over everyone else who CAN definitely go and want tickets tomorrow.


    I can definitely go. :D

    Yeah, I know - I JUST got off the phone with the friend I'm going with, and she said for me to go for it, it's cool. As for work, I'll have to ask my boss tomorrow (a) If I can take a half day tomorrow, and (b) If I can switch my vacation yet again.

    But has anybody gotten any word on whether there's going to be a poster for this bad boy or not?

    I'm not sure I want to know, because that would be extra icing on the cake that would be thrown in my face if I DON'T get these tickets...

    Does anyone know which is the best airport to land in if you need to take public transportation to the venue?
