MERGED-->The GENERAL SALE Discussion, Bragging, Etc., Thread

[Miroslava]

I got two GAs as well - you heard they are adding a second show? Elevation tour that was rumored, and they even had the palace booked but then didn't do it.

Well, considering there are tickets left, I doubt they would announce a second date today... maybe down the road

 

[danielle]

I had one GA for TAMPA.. but dumb TM was having problems with me entering my card. So I lost the ticket. ARGH!

 

[hippy]

I tried three times for Tampa

1) Got lower level tix but then the system had an error and could not complete the order. Frustration level:

2) Second try the system had an "internal error." Frustration level:

3) Third try I was just hoping for a seat... then the tix popped up: GA!!!!!!! Happiness level:

 

[sfu2doc]

No dice for GA 12/5 even though I was in at 10.35am exactly. Settled for 2 nosebleeds to save money

 

[matt_tx00]

I landed 2 GAs for Boston for the 12/4 show!! That's the catch though - December 4th standing outside waiting in line in Boston!! Yuck! I might be unable to go anyway and may try to sell them if I'm unable to go.

I got 2 GAs at 10:34.

 

[matt_tx00]

Now pulling up 2 best availables for the 12/4 and 12/5 shows I get nothing. It's 6 minutes after the 12/5 show went on sale!

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

oh shit.

I just got 3 tickets to Detriot. I hope Kariann and Schmeg can go! It was just a total impluse buy. I wanted to see if it would work and it did.

Damn! I'll see you guys there!


I got GA's right at 10 on the nose. I am still pinching myself.

[U2Girl1978]

There are alot of Loge seats for 12/5 btw...

 

[paul2400]

more boston shows at fenway

um, that oct 1st rumor is not posible cause the yankees are at fenway that weekend.. the rumor i heard was that they were going to book u2 sometime in september for fenway.. first springsteen, then buffett, this year it's u2.. they probably have to clear it with the fenway organizers first, but look for the announcement within a couple of months. btw, 7 shows at the fleet center is kicka**

 

[brejc]

WAAAHOOO!!....Got 8 GAs total....a pair for 3 boston shows and a pair for Philly on the 16th!!!

If someone wants to trade, I need as many tickets as I can get for the Toronto shows.
So if you want Boston and can't get good tickets, then try buying Toronto GAs and I will trade you for them.

[ramblin rose]

Holy cow, now I manged a single Lower Level for the 2nd DC show, Thank God.

2 for DC1
1 for DC2

Now waiting for Dallas.

 

[miss becky]

Using the phone automated system is no better...they still can't find anything at all for Atlanta, GA or seats.

 

[hibricc]

That Ticketmaster frontpage message about "2 more shows being rolled out" makes me think that's all for Boston. not that I'm complaining with 7 shows in all, of course.......

 

[Miroslava]

I'm worried...I got 2 GA's in the presale and now 2 GA's in the general sale...Is ticketmaster going to take them away?

If they're for separate nights, you should be okay. If they're for the same night, you could be in trouble,

God damn, wish they did 7 shows in Toronto....maybe not, I'd be broke if that happened

i called TM three times about this, and all three times they assured me the GA limit was per SHOW, so you should be fine.

I got 1 GA for San Jose in the Jan. presale and 2 GA's for Detroit today, so i wanted to make dead sure I was fine!

 

[U2Girl1978]

They are for separate nights.

 

[The Disciple]

If they're for separate nights, you should be okay. If they're for the same night, you could be in trouble,

Agreed

 

[clip51]

a couple pairs and scattered singles for the first Philly show and 8 in the lower level for the next night

 

[U2Girl1978]

I feel so psychotic right now....

on the amount of money I've spent on tickets....

and WOWY is on the radio...Huzzah!

 

[Diane L]

I got one ticket for Wachovia Center, October 16. It's lower level, a little different than my other vantage points. Plus I'm pleased that it cost $95 as opposed to $165!!!

I've had no luck with GA, even asking for 1 ticket, but that could be a blessing in disguise with my bad knees.

I'm happy to see a lot of people are getting the tickets they wanted!

 

[partygirl33]

i was hoping for a 3rd Philly show...

 

[knox]

I don't believe it!!! I got two Chicago GAs for 9/21!

 

[iamagnomethief]

Absolutely NOTHING for Chicago...

Well, at least no GA's. I got through the second they went on sale, and I had maybe less than a 10-15 second wait, and there were no tickets that matched my request, which was ONE GA!

I ♥ TICKETMASTER!
