My neighbor and I actually went to the Pond this morning, and the first thing I saw were SCORES of people who did not look like your typical fan. Scalpers were EVERYWHERE! It was disgusting! They are low-life scavengers. When they pulled the random wristband number, I was 28th in line, thinking "that could only be a max of 56 GA tix before me...the Pond MUST have more set aside!" No...there were about 4-5 people in front of me when the first show sold out! When I got up there, I asked for GA for the 2nd night and she said "she didn't think they had any, would I like to look for "best available?" (yeah, right!), so I told her to look for 2 GAs and she found 2. God was with me, I swear! But I feel bad for ALL of the people behind me! We didn't even stay for my neighbor's number, since hers was so far back. There were at least 6 homeless looking scalpers in line in front of me! It makes me sick.
All of my friends on line and on the phone got either nothing, or $165 nosebleeds. I feel VERY fortunate and very thankful at this point. Judging by the people I saw today, it's obvious who is getting all the good seats...the scalpers who went looking for people under bridges to wait in line for them. I know that's harsh, but I'm so pissed about that. Sorry.
