    Is this new? You don’t get them delivered until 3 days before event?
    That makes no sense, since the F2F supposedly starts in May.
    That has happened before. It just means you can't put them in your wallet until then, but it will show up in your TM account and should have the sell button. I have a ticket to see Bono on May 7th. When I look at my tickets it says this ticket will be ready in 4 days, but the sell and transfer buttons are active.

    Well, that makes sense then. My brain is scrambled after this week.

    It's seriously fucked that you can't even try unless TM deems you worthy of purchasing tickets. Literally crazy. How has ticket buying gotten soooooo much worse in the last 5 years.
    I kind of agree on non-transferrable tickets.  I get the purpose of Verified Fan when they allowed tickets to be transferred.  They tried to pick out actual fans, allegedly. 

    Now that they are non-transferrable just open it up.  Outside of select pro-scalper and anti-fan states - scalpers have been eliminated

    Well if anyone happens to get (or is willing to get an extra) for Chicago night 2, I’d absolutely love it! Let me know, and thanks so much in advance!! 
    I have an extra. Don’t know where the seats are at the moment since 10c hasn’t reassigned them yet. But if you’re interested, DM me.

    If you think about it, Verified Fan is not really necessary if you're not going to let people sell their tickets for higher than they bought it. Obviously doesn't apply to Illinois, etc.

    Not that I care a great deal, but I was only confirmed as a verified fan for one show… is that normal?

    Should I be worried that those Premium seats for Indy are worse than what I “received” in the lottery?  Smells like I’m getting reassigned to worse seats…..my thought was all Premium would be in front of me 
    I wouldn't worry

    Props to the person who snagged two tickets for Chicago N2 in the second balcony for face value. Those were in my cart!

    This isn’t just the case for PJ, a lot of bands are doing Verified Fan now and it’s like this. Helps their system not crash by too many people being on it (ala Taylor Swift) and it’s a random draw for who gets access when. Not defending the situation, just saying that’s how ticketing is going more and more, for bands that ask for it and don’t give TM free reign to Official Platinum every seat in the house at least.

    I agree.. if it was just open the system would crash like it used to.. this way the server can handle the demand. 

    I say that as I've sat here waiting to get off the waitlist for 2 shows and now know its a lost cause..

    I was one of the lucky ones and got a code for Austin 1. I noticed that behind the stage, all the front row tickets are never available. Are these actual seats or being saved for other people? I noticed the same thing for other venues, just curious.

    Got into the TM Verified fan ticket sale for St. Paul Night 2. These ticket prices are crazy
    Behind stage sections - $161 ea
    Sec C26 Row 1= $556 ea
    Sec 115 Row 5 & 8 = $614 ea
    Sec 114 Row 1 = $730 ea
    Floor Left Row 12 & 15 = $730 ea Row 3 $898 ea
    Sec 116 Row 1 & 4 = $898 ea Row 10 $730 ea Row 16 $556 ea
    Sec 112 Row 1 &2 = $730

    Makes me much happier that I am in the Fan Club. Sorry I would not spend this much on tickets.

    Is this true? I must have missed that in the instructions. I put in for 3 verified fans and also only got a code for one. Missed out on Austin 1 which is actually the one I was really hoping for

    Is anyone on verified fan getting an error whenever trying to secure and checkout? It's showing seats as available but its erroring every time for me.

    That's not true. You can sign up for all 9 and theoretically get a code for all 9.

    That's how they spin it but I don't buy it. Call me crazy but their ticketing system should be able to actually handle the traffic of people coming to purchase tickets. I think it's way more likely this is all to play games with FOMO and manipulating the market.
