    A year from now you aren't going to remember how rough Thursday and Friday was, but you will remember the show. I have to get on a 6AM train for an all day meeting that starts at 8AM the next morning, but no way am I missing this!


    ITS NOT THAT as much as i just don't care for half the acts...
    and i won't miss it as i will be able to see it live from my home

    i'll see tomorrow


    HAVE FUN SUZIE!!!!
    Thanks! I just had to say my peace, I almost didn't go to Alpine and one of my friends who's not even a fan knocked some sense into me. If you were on the brink I wanted to tip you over but you're no amateur so whatever works for you. Enjoy!

    Bruce is opening up the show at 730 promptly ,
    and will surely be in on any " finale"

    That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive

    I havent paid any attention to this show, and this is my 1st time opening this thread.

    Simple question.

    How much were tickets to this event?
    And how difficult were they to get?

    Thanks.
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    Honestly was not impossible but did required some level of commitment to refreshing. I'm convinced TM drops tickets in waves, an event that sells out "immediately" is hardly ever sold out unless it's a tiny venue. I kept pulling single tickets in the $500-$750 range during the Chase pre-sale. $2,500 tickets were abundantly available, even during the public sale. Also managed to pull a few pairs in the $500-$750 range during the pre-sale. And then pulled some $250 tickets during the public sale. Yes, it would be nice to go on TM and get tickets right away, but if you were persistent and weren't looking for big blocks of tickets, it was possible. I think the $150-$250 were hardest to come by.

    Speedy, ticket prices were $150, $250, $500, $750, $2,500.

    When I tried, all I could pull were the $2,500 seats! Since I knew I couldn't afford them, I decided it would be best to stay home and watch on TV.
    Have fun everyone who is going, and can't wait to read the first hand accounts!! :D

    :cry::cry: I refreshed practically non-stop for almost 2 hours, so definitely not implying it was easy by any means. Probably 95% of the time I either got the no tickets available note or the $2,500 tickets. It's very demoralizing! I'm fortunate that I can generally block time in my day to fish for tickets and then make up for it later otherwise I'd be going to far fewer concerts.

    Lately I've found the phone apps the best way to go when dealing with TM and Live nation. I was able to pull up one of the $150 tickets 12 minutes into it. Either they are releasing them in waves as suggested above or they get dropped out of peoples ques, computers freeze, etc. Whenever their website has issues (like the soundgarden pre-sale) the app always seems to work.

    Hey, folks!!! Don't forget to donate!!!

    Despite the fact that the news organizations have done a terrible job reporting what is still going on, there are folks still in extremely dire straights.

    Yes, NY/NJ is very lucky to get this sort of star power to support its efforts, but the gov't has failed this area no less than it did in Katrina, but for some reason the news organizations haven't deemed it as worthy as NOLA to get the images and messages across. Hopefully tonight they'll show some of the terrible situations that still exist, and we can all pitch in and help get these folks back on their feet. NYers are resilient, but this was a huge blow, and many are still down.

    Yes, this will be a great show. Enjoy, but don't forget to help!!!
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.
