Must decide on the St. Paul show!

25 year old strat wouldnt think twice. 33 year old strat thinks 2 shows might be 2 too many.

You have to do the St. Paul show. Wait until 36 year old strat, with kids, has to make that decision. Do it while you can!

I read through the Pit. Disappointing. I do enjoy the spouse account and children accounts conspiracy theories.

:lol: it's a wreck over there, isn't it? Makes for good giggles throughout the day.
Happy to see just about everyone on RM has a level head about the whole thing.

Sure enough, I got front row for Alpine in 1998. At least they gave a shit about people being shut out back then.

ha, no worries; my comment was more in jest than anything.

it'll be good to know this is how they do things going forward.

As if people's spouses cannot be PJ fans?

But seriously bro, they would cut down on scalpers (who hold what is likely 100s-1000s of accounts) a great deal if they didn't let you leave venue once you had your tickets. i.e., you get into a queue for fan clubbers, you are checked off on a list and go to the ticketing station inside the venue and get your tickets, you must then scan your tickets and enter the venue proper immediately, and leaving voids the tickets.

Agree wholeheartedly on two points that have been made:

1. If you pick up 10C tix, you have to go straight into the venue with your +1
2. Yes, seniority didn't help you get tickets in the past, but maybe it's time that it did.

I've been making the broker argument since they started in this direction with the rows 1,2,9,10 lotteries, but I understood it because of the lack of energy in the front. They've increased the benefits to brokers with the lottery, as all they have to do is click a button and have a chance at tickets they will flip. Then people want a hometown priority??? Imagine competing with Gold Coast for tickets but since they have numerous accounts, they get to leapfrog you in terms of priority.

15+ year members getting totally shut out seems unfair. I did ok in the lottery, but I am preparing myself for future tours where I will get shut out.

I never heard about the scalper / broker issue until this week. Is this actually a problem? A few pairs for sale has always happened.

Anyone know if Us Bank Arena in Cincinnati does General Admission seating? Reading conflicting reports, one says no bc GA is banned since the Who incident back in the day.

Also I am trying to buy tickets for me and 7 friends, anyone have any insight/past experiences to buying this many tickets at once? Is it even possible. Def don't want 8 nosebleed tickets, is 8 GA possible if I am on right at 10am?

Thanks so much in advance.

I know the two shows I will go to have a limit of 4 seats per purchase. You may have to split up the group.
