    I need 2 tickets to Baltimore...

    Been trying to come to terms with the fact that this will be an extreme longshot.  This fan-to-fan exchange is going to be EXTREMELY limited and the majority of the small number of tickets available will likely be singles.  It is hard to imagine very many folks who scored a pair of tickets to this show will later decide (or be forced to for reasons beyond their control) to say, "Nah, can't make the show."

    Other than getting exceptionally lucky and scoring 2 on the fan exchange, I am trying to discern my options.  Thus far, I have only seen obnoxiously high prices on ticketing websites I have never heard of but allegedly let people sell access to their TM account for purposes of entering the show.  Even if I could come up with the money, not sure I would trust this process....

    Are there any other legal and/or feasible ways of getting 2 tickets to Baltimore?  I have heard about the possibility of a "Platinum Seat" package but I don't see anything yet for this show.

    Are there other options I have not considered?

    Getting back to the exchange, I would pound it as soon as it opens for a day or two. Wouldn't surprise me to see pairs pop up right away. People who put in for 10C with friends and they both hit. People who grabbed VF/public tix as well as 10C and throw back whichever is "worse." Etc.

    If you can wait, I predict another spike as it gets within a day or two of the show. Plans change, people flake, people give up on finding someone for their extras. Plus the holds that mpedone mentioned. Depending on how much effort you can put toward it, I think it's more likely than not that you can score tickets.

    Thanks for the shot of optimism!

    You bet. That's how I'd approach it if I were in your shoes. If they schedule a single show in Boston this fall, I may very well be in your shoes!

    So does the F2F exchange mean you have to be registered with ticketbastard like you had to with the presale?

    You would be buying tickets through Ticketmaster so yes you would need an account. But we have had no indication that you will need to register Verified Fan style and hope for a code.

    This probably has already come up in the thread but how are you supposed to sell your tickets when Ticketmaster isn’t allowing me access to the tickets until March 26th?

    What do you mean not allowing you access until the 26th?

    On my TM account the tickets have a countdown saying tickets will be ready “countdown clock” which is up on e 26th of March.

    And right below that countdown clock (I'm looking at the tickets on the app) it has a big blue button that says "Transfer" right?

    Edit: this is for NY (and presumably CO), not sure which show you're looking at.

    This the weirdest coincidence....I was just in Indio (at the Empire Polo Fields) for a lacrosse tournament in which my daughter was involved.  I told the story of how Pearl Jam played there years ago and how I bought my first bootleg (video and cd) of that show at a record store in downtown LA....sketchy joint that sold all sorts of bootlegs....still have the cd and VHS....but can't watch the VHS without a player.  Caused me to find the show on YouTube...and then you posted this....I love when worlds collide...

    I'm sure this has been posted before but if I am trying to find 2 for baltimore, do I have to sign up for something? Is this run by TM or Ten club?  Any answers would help....thanks!

    TM is doing it. If I had to guess it will be run exactly like the previous method of buying on ticketmaster for secondhand tickets but this time only for face and no fees.

    Thanks PJNB, I guess you just call TM at 10am the 18th or whatever time it starts and wait in the que? ....I'm guessing at that time they will ask what show I wanted. Ughhh, at least it's another shot at this.....thanks. Good luck everyone!
