in Lost Dogs
I purchased one ticket to the show in Boston on 9/17.   Section R.F, Box 4, Row F ( first row in that section /aisle seat row 24)
I cannot attend. I have spent too much money and finally realized I do not want to fly across the country to attend a concert. ( long story short) I see the ticket thats showing in my MLB site under tickets but no barcode ). How do I go about selling this ticket. Anyone interested in buying a ticket? I can't get my money back from the hostel that I booked for one night and now I've got this ticket I am trying to sell. Any suggestions ? Can I sell this is SeatGeek? And has anyone used SeatGeek? and do I have to wait until the morning of the concert to do so? I'm a hot mess. thanks for listening

    The fact that the f2f exchange got turned off is probably the most fan unfriendly move the band has ever made.  You have fans that can’t go and can’t sell their tickets and fans who want to go who can’t buy tickets.  Total disaster.

    Me just walking in my apartment to log in and read the comments. I'm like (??) I'm in Seattle. I flew out to Chicago to get merch and didn't even go to the show. I've decided that I will see them in 2025 and didn't want to add a plane ticket to fly to see them. The hostel wont give me a refund but might be able to move my lodging to next year. I was just looking to get the cost of the ticket that I purchased  back. Me being a new fan is very interesting. Anyway I guess it will be at a loss and I will sell my pearl jam and foo fighters posters perhaps to make up the money

    So you purchased a plane ticket to buy merch but won’t purchase one to see the band play live music? Maybe I’m missing something.

    I'm off work due to a rotator cuff surgery. I'm doing physical therapy. In this time I've been off I've being involved in lots of new things to include going to my first Pearl Jam concert in May the 28th and 30. Prior to that I ended up waiting in a line for merch when they were in Seattle back in 2016? plus or minus and got a scarf and some other things and ended up giving somethings away for free via my twitter account. Anyway long story short I saw the excitement with all the fans that flew to Seattle and were camped out infront of the Climate Pledge Arena. i was sold. I learned a lot about merch. Most were from Canada and this one couple flew in from Nova Scotia. Anyway I got more merch but those were the shows I went to. Okay so then I ended up flying to Boston just to get merch ( because of that fan experience ). I get there and no line basically and it took 15 minutes. it was very hot and I planned to camp out and not stay anywhere ( anyway this is a long funny story and now I'm going to get back on stub hub and try to sell this ticket for the game tonight ) ..  so long story short I'm a new fan. Loved the excitement coming from the fans and the group as well. I easily got into it and then realized ( wait I'm spending a lot of money here ). I will just wait until 2025 to attend shows.  anyway I just called the stadium and now I think I can transfer tickets. So now I'm trying to simply sell my ticket for what I paid for it.  okay adios.

    I recommend the MSG 1 bootleg that was just released. The band played Out of My Mind...great for someone losing their mind as you noted above. @lmckenney24 Agrees.
