Shoulder to cry on

I got busy this weekend and thought I had plenty of time.  Logged in to make my selections for pre-sale and missed it by 8 minutes :(  Already have hotels and flights booked to Seattle and Montana.  Could not be more bummed.

    That sucks. Try when the Verified Fan pre-sale starts. Unless, you didn't register for that too?

    To be fair, the original email announcing the shows said it closed on Tuesday, February 13. Every subsequent email said today with no explanation for why it changed.

    You should be able to find a spare ticket for sale here. I only entered for Seattle and may be trying to find Missoula too.

    Interesting. You are right.

    For your travel planning convenience, you have 2 weeks before the drawing begins. The drawing entry period opens Wednesday, February 7th at 10am PT, and closes on Tuesday, February 13th at 10am PT.

    agreed, there will be plenty of people trying to off load their plus ones on here.  Just have to keep checking in.  Good news is they can transfer it to you before the day of show so it will give you some peace of mind.

    I noticed this too, and almost missed entering for tickets because of this. However, below that, in the same email, it states that you have to enter by the 12th at 10am PT.

    "

    Since you have 6 full days to enter, you do not have to be online right at 10am PT on the 7th. The time you enter the drawing has no effect on whether or not you get tickets, as long as you enter before the drawing period ends on February 12th at 10am PT."

    Very weird.
  • I did register for the verified pre-sale.  For some reason I had the 14th stuck in my head for end of fan club registration and just kept procrastinating.  My fault 100% but knew you all would feel my pain.

    FWIW, I hope your 10C # is lowed than mine. Since letting mine lapse, I need all the help I can get just to get within non-big screen view.

    And this is why I always enter day 1, and then consider any changes

    That sucks. That why with these I always put something in at first and change if I feel it needs changed. I’m worried I’ll forget and get shutout!

    nightmare scenario. I hope you get into the shows you want

    Im the same.  Im so neurotic, that I had to put in right when it opened in case I got in a car accident or something and couldn't access internet.  Man, I think I have issues...

    Oh man. That deserves a facepalm. Someone suggested things like this started happening after recreational marijuana was legalized in Washington, lol.

    When I received the email on 1/24 stating the drawing closes on 2/13 I wrote that date down, along with the Ticketmaster pre-sale & general public sale dates so I could keep everything organized.  When I went to check the odds & enter the drawing just now I thought I totally screwed up the date but now I realize it's because of the typo in the original announcement.  Do you think they'll re-open the drawing if there are remaining ten club tickets before the Ticketmaster pre-sale on Friday?

    I got what I needed in the lotto, but I checked out of curiosity- how are there already tickets on Stubhub?

    I would email 10C and explain the situation - they may be willing to help, especially if their first notice had a later closing date listed.
