How are people coming up on these drops? (CONGRATS by the way!!!) Are they timed? Communicated privately?
Also, with a timed drop…I assume the buyer is still running the risk of a random person/bot swooping up on them? I guess that’s always going to be the risk. But to minimize the chances of that happening in the first place is the whole point of it being “timed” I take it?
Some are timed, but I think most are just the result of people refreshing constantly for hours at a time. Yes, a timed drop still has the risk of being sniped. In past years, timing it for the middle of the night was pretty effective but there have been reports of even these being intercepted this year. Dropping one seat at a time out of a pair may help with this

Ahhhh ok. Yeah I’ve been doing the whole refreshing for hours on end lol. Still no luck but I…WON’T…BACK…DOWN. Still ISO of 1 Sac GA or 1 LA1 GA. I know it’s tough and I’m being picky. I’ll settle for a seat at the last minute.

Exactly
The later the better since that person that is trying to buy the tickets is alert and knows they are coming.

It can be quite slow until closer to the show. Usually the most action is in the last few days but there's also more competition

Yeah I kind of figured that much. Makes sense. Well, I guess I’ll try my chances. I’m going no matter what. As I said I’m just being a little picky.
I was fortunate to land an MSG up in the 200 section during the TM verified fan sale because I was shut out for the lottery. But I live right in between LA and SAC so that’s why I’m trying for either of those. My wallet just wasn’t ready for the hit if I would’ve been fortunate enough to land both of those shows ON TOP of an MSG one haha. That’s why I limited myself to begin with. So here I am.
Were lots of face tickets dropped today on TM for tonight’s show? Trying to watch the patterns for Leg 2 NA 👀
Not sure about today but they were Saturday for both nights
TM usually drops their hold backs for both shows at the same time either day before or day of first show... ( if there are 2 shows) once the stage is setup, any seats that might have been obstructed, extra rows in front of sound board, Close low rows , and extreme sides.. They also wash out any tickets that were held by the venue, club, etc...
There was an additional drop for around 3:30 PM PST. Rows 2-5 in the section beside stage.

I was able to upgrade my LA N2 from sect 136 to 129 aisle last night....still looking for GA's for shows
I just grabbed 5th row aisle in 123 for N1. Just missed 2nd row aisle in 114 yesterday. Been seeing some increasingly good drops.
I believe we will see sides drop, Might be premium but I know they held seats in 111, 112,113 and 124, 125, 126.... I saw 114 row 6 seats 1-2 over the weekend, but decided the row 1 on floor I have prob better... they were up for 15 min...

You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
