    We don't know that this Ticketmaster deal will extend to any future tours. I suspect it won't if it prevents them from playing a favorite market like Philly.

    I just have to believe that there will be more and more singles the week of or even day of the show when plans change or people upgrade AND demand might be lower bc fewer people will be able to manage last minute plans. I’m 3 hours drive to Baltimore. Hubby and I are off that weekend already and he’s a trooper to agree to be on call for a concert that he’s not interested in attending. I’m not giving up yet but I need to live my life.  It seems like it shouldn’t be this hard. 
    Been saying the same thing. Probably about 2 weeks before the show tickets are going to start dropping a little more frequent

    This is my hope for upgrading our St Louis tickets. Baltimore, we're in the upper back corner, but I really am just happy to have those tickets. STL, I'd like to be a *little* closer and lower.
    I feel you. So for the last spectrum show in philly in 2009 literally two days before, I got tickets right on the side of the stage about 7 rows back. And I got them through Ticketmaster. A bunch were released the week of. Happened with the 2nd 2016 Philly show too.
    Yeah I went to all 4 nights but the last nite I scalped right outside the Spectrum....$90. I look back and that was a steal, upper side of stage
    For some weird reason, night 4 of the Spectrum run was the only show we didn't get 10c tix for. Ended up in the upper sect side stage on Mike's side through TM. Seats ended up being great (except for the girl behind us who was so drunk we were afraid she was gonna puke on us - she left before PJ came on)  Halloween was a really fun show, but to this day, night 3 of that run is my all time fave show - incredible energy, fantastic setlist.

  • I hope they tweek this process for the next tour.  Like be able to transfer to who u want and have tm process the payment for whoever
    That would be awesome, but I don't see that happening for the fall leg (if it holds). Although frustrating, I think TM and 10c will view this as a success keeping the tickets out of the hands of scalpers. I think if they make that tweak, or any tweak, it won't be until 2021 tour or later, unfortunately. 

    It's going to be interesting if they play Philly.  Wells Fargo center is a comcast tickets venue. This show may be an exception or this could point to them playing the Citizens Bank Ball Park.
    I wonder if that pushes them to play Camden instead of Philly. 
    They played 2 nites at Wells Fargo in 2016, so I don't think that's an issue.

    Congrats SHZA!  I stumbled on the second one. Too many distractions, but made it all the way to the end to be beat. First one I was lightning speed. 
    Trade you my +1 for apollo +1?  :)

    Yeah the set lists were awesome every nite. Whip it the last nite was cool. Good times!

    That was before this whole new process of letting Ticketmaster handle the 10C and the F2F ticket sales.

    You guys using the app or PC?

    i been getting stuck on “ sit tight “ 
    The endless "sit tight" seems to happen when you're due for a captcha. I've had it happen on both the PC and the app.
