You forgot the 2nd leg! ;)

I've done pretty good. As of today 7 shows, including 2 in Dublin :D No GA's but partly because I'm not sure if I want them. My tour won't be complete if I don't get tickets next weekend to the Minnesota show :scream: The venue is literally 10 minutes down the highway from my house and if I'll cry if I'm not there.
 
i got tickets to 3rd legs.. but no GA... anyone got any?? seems like they were out quick..

p.s: when u get GA, do u select best available or go fo GA as an option??

Thats what I call some Super Powers but you had to have gotten trades with your extra GA's and you must have used Ebay for 6 those shows listed. I might have 3 more codes but I think Fan Fire made a mistake so before I use them this week I am going to call them to verify these new passwords .
 
San Diego 3/28
New York 5/21
Boston 5/24
Boston 5/26
Boston 5/28
Barcelona 8/7
New York 10/8
Washington DC 10/19
Washington DC 10/20
Houston 10/28
Dallas 10/29

Will still be trying for New York 10/7 and Miami 11/13 (and 11/14 if they add a 2nd show)
 
May 9th-GA's (chicago)
10th-GA's (chicago)
12th-GA's (chicago)
24th-Balcony seats (Boston)
26-Loge seats (Boston)

October 4th-GA's (Boston)
December 4th-GA's (Boston)

:crazy:

Going to try to get May 7th, 28th, October 5 and December 5th shows somehow!
 
compared to most of you guys, i'm pretty pathetic... but compared to most of the people on here, i consider myself VERY fortunate:

san diego #'s 1&2 - $160 and GA
NYC - spring leg - $160
houston - $160
dallas GA

and i'll be going the broker route for the first two boston shows on the 3rd leg.

glad to hear that some of us are having good experiences.

And what about you - how did you obtain so many GA's? Through e-bay and swaps as well? Or multiple memberships?
 
I used Ebay for the first show San Diego. But I am upset since I should have had another set of GA's for D.C. to trade because the dude working the TM machine didn't type in the right price level (plus I was the first person at the other TM machine since the outlet I went to had 2 machines) into the computer so instead of 4 GA's for both shows I got 2 for each D.C. show. I have one membership but Fan Fire screwed up and sent me another password as a Prior Prop member and I have not used it plus my other password works which they changed and I have not used that password. I rather not have my tickets canceled just to be greedy and taking advantage of Fan Fire's mistake. Plus their verifying each membership. It's not worth loosing 4 GA's for the 2 shows I pick. My advantage is just my luck and going to alot of concerts, plus working a ticketmaster outlet machine 4 years ago, and waiting for TM releases which has work for me for Metallica (Boston Fleet Center front row reserved on the skinny side), Pearl Jam 2003 Riot Act PNC, and 2004 VFC Reading, PA, Bruce Springsteen Tampa, FL GA. Metallica GA ticket for the Forum first show, and Anaheim GA the day of the show without even worrying.

5/18 NJ - 2 $90 lower

san diego 2 -2 ga's
la 2- 2 ga's
vancouver 2- 2 ga's
boston 1,2,3- 2 ga's (and a lxury box for 5/28)
croke 2 - 4 ga's
boston 4,5 - 2 ga's
atlanta- 4 ga's

all through presales and general sales ( no ebay or trading)
 
I don't think U2 sellouts are that impressive at all. It seems that half the people in the building are seeing multiple shows. I thought I was nuts for going to 2 shows. :wink:
 
For my 26th birthday (tomorrow), I bought myself a 5th row lower level seat close to the stage for Philly 1 in October and a GA for Philly 2. I also got a 12/5 Boston GA, though I'm not 100% positive I can use it. Add those shows to the two GA's I have to Philly 2 in May and the GA or lower level seat I'm hoping to get for Buffalo.

Ticketmaster has been very, very good to me this time.
 
First Leg:
Chicago 5/9 Lowers
Philly 5/14 Middle Level Reserved
New York 5/21 Behind stage nosebleeds

Third Leg:
Washington DC (first show) Nosebleeds

Isn't that like.....5000 dollars. Plus you'll have to pay travel fees and hotel fees. What the hell do you do for a living?!?!?!
 
Chicago 5/9 -- GA/upper across from stage (I'm going with three brothers, we haven't figured out how we're splitting the tickets yet)
Chicago 5/10 -- GA
Chicago 5/12 -- GA (pending the successful completion of a trade)
Chicago 9/20 -- upper, second row, right next to Edge's side of the stage
Chicago 9/21 -- GA

I'm looking for a face value ticket for 5/7 in Chicago. Anyone got an extra? :p

Dude, how can you spend that much money on tickets if you're 17 years old? I wish I had that kind of money NOW.
