    Toronto asking for a phone number to text a code in order to join the queue.
    Really not making it easy for people.
    Every show did that.
    i wasn't suggesting it was only Toronto. (but that's my only point of reference)

    it's fairly obvious they made a mistake booking one night at MSG. Getting tickets to those shows was hard enough in 2016 and there were two. I expect the cheapest ticket to be $300+ on stubhub.
    Zero mistake booking one night at MSG - they knew exactly what they were doing with the time constraints, venue availability etc.  And shockingly there are other areas of the country that want to see the band play.
    I never said there aren't other areas of the country that want to see PJ. But you must realize that PJ playing in NYC, a city of 8m+ ppl (not even going to count the full tri-state area), is a lot different than them playing in a place like Detroit. This is why, imo, it warrants two nights. And it's not like this is unprecedented... They have played MSG/Barclays two nights on several occasions.
    Right - and as mentioned a condensed first leg of the tour, with limited arena availability didn't allow it for the first leg.  If people want to go, they'll always figure out a way to get in the door... always.


    Msg on stub hub is about triple more than 2016

    so those that have 750$ for behind stage seats, enjoy DotC

    You guys who booked hotel rooms are lucky. I committed to visiting/staying with my mother-in-law, which I'll now have to do regardless of whether or not I find a ticket. Imagining myself sitting on her couch that night watching the setlist thread updates.
    That might warrant a 10c hardship exception.
    You think Eddie will let me do the setlist?

    This is the only thing that made me laugh today.  I'm sorry man, but funny post!

    No.  I just think there is a special queue for me.  In the back.

    Other arena you can usually pick up tix a couple of days before the show due to release of held seats due to stage setup. However, I've rarely seen that at MSG. And since PJ uses a basic stage, they usually don't have that problem. 

    Currently best value on StubHub for MSG is Chase Bridge 310 at $481/tx. Ugh.

    I'm also a big Silversun Pickups fan, glad they're not as popular (but put on a great show). Anybody need any Lumineers tickets for 2/14? ;)

    System is broke. Some folks got 2 lottery tix and 4 verified fan tix where as other club members where shut out of the show completelty. 

    If they were to drop all lottery winners by one priority to give non winners a better chance and match up their performances per capita where fans live, that might put a dent in this issue.

    this is hilarious.  I am using my cellphone at it flagged me as "suspicious," meanwhile TM has no problem with actual bots and ticket mills . comical.

    Nobody seems to understand how f'ed up this is. those same people probably got greedy and got more tix today during the general on sale, while others got zero! Unreal!

    100% accurate, totally crushed! Tried everything and got shut out every time. Guess 10C seniority does matter anymore. So incredibly disappointing. I even took the morning off work yesterday for the verified sale.

    this is just flawed logic. today was a disaster, so for someone to actually go 3/3 is hard to believe.
