    Game over folks. 
    well, good thing I have my Platinum seats for $1k that are now 250 bucks for the ev show!
    You thought that $1000 was a good price when you bought them, so you can't complain that they are now selling for less. No one forced you to buy them at $1000.
    oh, ok

    Admittedly, I tend to take a “don’t count your eggs before they hatch” mentality to most things.  There’s a completely reasonable, and probably more likely answer for all of the above

    - EV shows placed on hold due to the first round not having great ticket sales.
    - We all expected Baltimore to be cancelled so it’s not really a huge surprise
    - “Game over folks” plus the fact that Baltimore is starting to refund could simply mean that an announcement is imminent and that the waiting game is over 
    - Plus, they’re working on a new album with Andrew Watt.  That’s not a band that’s about to break up.
    - Communication still leaves a lot to be desired though, as cancellations should be announced by the band first, not people getting phone calls from an arena
    Where is there indication that the first round of EV tickets sold poorly? The presale sold out in minutes. It’s the bullshit ticketing they’re doing as to why there are still seats available. If they sold all tickets for let’s say $150 it would be an easy sell out. But they’re playing this “maximize the value”, dynamic pricing bullshit game and that’s why there are tickets left.

    (ps any anger is not directed at you :))
    This is correct. Live Nation has been clear on this point. The goal is no longer to sell tickets as fast as possible. The days of 5 minute sell outs is long gone. With the platinum/VIP ticketing, it is normal for many tickets to remain on sale for long periods of time with the goal as you mention of maximizing the total revenue. Before the pandemic, I saw The Who at MSG and barely 50 percent of the tickets were sold about a month before the show. By showtime, the place was packed.
    Oh that’s interesting, I didn’t know they formally changed their mission statement so to speak. “Poor ticket sales” can’t be a complaint then anymore since they are holding out for higher buyers.

    Guess today is not the day.  Perhaps we get some news after Ed's tour.

    I'm too lazy to dig up the last PJ communication about tour announcement. I remember that they said the tour would begin in May, but did they specifically mention that the announcement would come in January? Or did they simply say something to the effect of "early in the new year.."

    So is the March 3rd or whatever it was for the Ticketmaster refund deadline still in place? If they wait until after the EV tour that would leave about a week. Would they wait that long? This is getting beyond frustrating.

    Funny, I was gonna do the same thing. I probably wasn't gonna make the show anymore regardless of when it's rescheduled. Had great seats too, one row behind the Vitalogy seats. Hope someone on here enjoys them when it's finally show time!

    For people concerned about the March 1st refund window, I’d guess that once the rescheduled dates are announced that there will be another 14 or 30 day window to request refunds.  Unless I was in desperate need for cash, I’d continue to wait it out. 

    Sticking with my guess of an announcement between Feb 28 and Mar 14 if in fact dates are starting May 2022.

    This was my thought process but then I saw the F2F debacle on the EV tour.  If I can't resell and F2F is disabled it becomes a huge gamble on thousands of dollars (if you have multiple shows of course.)

    If 10C chose to waive the resale rules for this tour alone I would gladly just hang on to them and StubHub what I can't use, but they won't do that so refunds or gambling are the options.

    They're not going to announce rescheduled dates and not give a refund option and/or the ability to resell the tickets to other fans via F2F.  Far too many people have had far too much money tied up for 2+ years for that to happen.  They'd experience a major shit storm if they handled it any other way.
