I used Propaganda for POPMart and Elevation. I received great tickets for all of the shows I requested. In my experience, Propaganda are outstanding - and if they cannot give you tickets for the show you requested, they will notifiy you.
When do the tickets get sent to my house?
Usually a few weeks before the concert.
Is it dangerous to have them send my tickets in the mail?
You
must provide Propaganda with a self-addressed, stamped envelope (SASE) when you place your order. So write clearly on this envelope - and make sure the stamp is secure (but don't overtape the stamp otherwise the post office won't accept it as they cannot postmark it). Using this format, I have never had any problems receiving tickets from Propaganda.
Is it possible for me to request the Chicago (October 16th)show that hasn't been officially announced yet?
Sadly, the answer is "no." Propaganda will ONLY offer tickets for the shows that are confirmed as of Sept. 10th. For example, when more Boston shows were added this past June, I asked Propaganda if I could have tickets to one of those shows instead of the Hartford show. They replied that they were ONLY given tickets for the shows that were confirmed on the date they made their offer. They also stated that they rarely get tickets for the added shows.
How have your experiences with Prop. been?
I love them! They gave me OUTSTANDING GC seats at Hartford. It was worth paying $138.50 for those seats. I didn't have to stand outside all day and I was literally as close to the stage as those in the heart were. At POPMart, I was very close to the stage (on the field) in Chicago. When I looked around and saw how HUGE the stadium was, I was shocked to be so close. My friends complimented me on the good seats for both tours. Therefore, I definitely trust them.
A word of caution though - for the more popular shows, say the one in Chicago, there may be a lot of demand. Therefore, you might not get fantastic seats or you might not even get tickets at all. As such, plan a back-up show that you KNOW you want to attend and/or be prepared to receive less than "perfect" tickets. However, keep in mind - at least Propaganda obtained tickets for you for that show. Could you do better with TicketMaster? If you feel that TicketMaster is the way to go - then ignore Propaganda completely (this is not directed at you, Mikal). I just don't want to hear another round of people complaining that they didn't get tickets on Bono's lap from Propaganda.
Hope this helps and good luck!
