If this has been discussed already, I apologize. But CAN or CAN'T you sign up for both shows in a given city? I want to go to both Nashville shows but I didn't see an option on the initial request page to pick more than one show. So, I signed up for the 5/6 show. Then, when I went to request the 5/8 show, there's a pop-up that says you already have a request submitted (and the option to cancel your last request). I'm sure I'm missing something, but wanted to how others put in for both nights.

You request both shows at once. In the same request. Cancel your original and create a second request for both shows. 

Was able to figure it out. Anyone think there's an advantage in "prioritizing" your selection order? i.e..having 5/8 listed as Request 1 and 5/6 listed as Request 2? I know back before TM got involved, you could rack-and-stack your requests based on submission percentages, but that's no longer the case. I guess it probably doesn't matter nowadays...you still have the same chances of winning no matter the order.

Nope- they took prioritization out of it unfortunately, which I hate. At least with prioritization, in most cases, you had a decent shot at scoring GA or at least seats to the show that you ranked as #1. But now it’s just a completely randomized lottery for each show- it’s a total crapshoot. I hope they fixed the issue of a disproportionate number of people winning GA to both nights of a two-night stand in high-demand cities (e.g., Philly and Seattle on the last tour). It appeared that the way they ran the lottery last time, it was done on a city by city basis, instead of a show by show basis.  If you win GA for one night, you should be disqualified from winning it for the other night to spread the love. But I’m not holding my breath. I suspect that just like last time, we’ll see some people win 10 GAs, while others get shut out entirely.

One question. I know the TM sales is mostly impossible, but i signed up for that as well just to see. I noticed that all of the shows have the same presale dates and times. I'm not understanding the point of signing up for multiple shows if they are all going on sale at the same time. From what I've seen, it's almost impossible to get anything, let alone move to a different show and try again. I guess you just pick the one you want the most and hope for a miracle?

Do we know if any of these states have New York/Colorado style scalping laws? I know PA does not. Been a long time since PJ was in some of these other states.

Ok folks.....very important question here....

Which show is the designated "rat show" that we're all going to wear our rat shirts from the mystery bags. 

Can’t be Pittsburgh, my mystery bag didn’t have one

If we have learned one thing from the last leg of the tour, it's that the last thing you should do is worry if you don't get tickets on day 1. It was unbelievable how many tickets were released closer to the show. From March through April you'll have your pick of seats.
