    And so you see, I have come to doubt

    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    I take the ticket thing very seriously actually. I've turned down a lot of money for tickets before and I just feel it's wrong. Sorry but it's the way I feel.

    Admin and I'm sure the BAND frowns on this type of behavior as well...

    If you've got proof of sale and photographic evidence, you might consider asking Sea or Kat what oughtta be done.

    That's just a shame... Waste of a membership...

    What made it funny...but not really funny at the same time is he was wearing his Analog tshirt. He also had a name tag on with his shirt...must have been at some pre-party or something. I had an 10c extra ticket to get rid of and I saw him standing on the corner around the scalpers. I walked over to him and told him I had a fan club seat if he wants it? Before I could even tell him I was willing to give him the ticket just so it didn't go to waste he blurted out "I can give ten bucks for it". Then I noticed he had 4 or 5 other tickets in his hand. I walked away, grabbed a beer, came back said something to him and took his picture. Then the guy followed me as I went into the venue. I sat at a table near the front of the entrance and this guy called someone inside the venue who sat down at the table with me and took my picture. It was really weird. :lol:

    Agree with you DS. MSG show '10, guy was standing next to a kiosk with the seating chart. Everyone was going from the booth to pick up their tickets over to the kiosk seeing what they got. I walked over, I'm sure I had a nice smile on my face as I showed my buddy where we were. Scalper says, "I'll give you $3,500 for them". Dude looked confused when I laughed at him :lol:

    I don't need your money, I need the shows. And seeing as we are going on 3 years since and I've only seen the band once (at a festival), I made the right choice.

    It was kind of funny but really weird at the same time. Essentially I was trying to just give away a ticket. Oh well. At least I had plenty of room at the show with the empty seat next to me. :lol:

    Was he selling for more than face? You mean you know who he is or you have only a picture? Thats a tough one

    I doubt the nyc scalper was serious about his $1800 offer, may have paid you with phony bills

    I was at that one and yes I was approached by two different people. I believe I was offered around that much as well and the second person I ignored once I realized what was going on. They were like vultures that night. As soon as anyone walked to the seating charts they would peer over people's shoulders to see the seat locations. :fp:
